Maybe I Deserve

Ooh, hey, hey, well, well, well
Do you mind if I tell the truth for a second, y'all? (Tell the truth)
Hey, hey, no, no, no

(Maybe I deserve) to wonder who's calling so damn late
For you to say I'm trippin', it's just a homie from upstate (said, "It's just a homie")
Don't he know it's one o'clock in the morning?
You say it's cool, baby, it's cool
Maybe I deserve
For you to say he's coming into town (later on this evening)
And he was just wondering if you and him can hang out (oh, oh, oh)
I don't like it, but I know I gotta trust you
It ain't cool 'cause I know it's true

Maybe I deserve
For you to go out and find some other guy
Maybe I deserve
For you to stay out with him all night
Maybe I deserve
For you to do all the things I did to you
Maybe I deserve (oh, yeah)
Maybe I deserve (oh, yeah)
Maybe I deserve

For you to go out and find some other guy
Maybe I deserve
For you to stay out with him all night
Maybe I deserve
For you to do all the things I did to you
Maybe I deserve (oh, yeah)
Maybe I deserve (oh, yeah)
Maybe I deserve

For you to put on a sexy dress
For me to ask you, "Who the hell you tryna impress?" (The hell you tryna impress)
For you to laugh it off like it ain't nothin'
I know it's something, but maybe (maybe I deserve)
To sit a home and wonder where you are
Is he kissing you, touching you, holding you, what?
To take a drink to help ease my mind
I wanna be mad (wanna be), but after all those times
Maybe I deserve

For you to go out and find some other guy
Maybe I deserve
For you to stay out with him all night
Maybe I deserve
For you to do all the things I did to you
Maybe I deserve (oh, yeah)
Maybe I deserve (oh, yeah)
Maybe I deserve

For you to go out and find some other guy
Maybe I deserve (ooh, ooh, yeah)
For you to stay out with him all night
Maybe I deserve
For you to do all the things I did to you
Maybe I deserve (oh, yeah)
Maybe I deserve (oh, yeah)
Maybe I deserve

For me to ask you where you've been (maybe I deserve)
For you to say I better stop trippin' (maybe I deserve)
To grab your neck until you let me know (maybe I deserve)
For you to run crying, crying out the door (maybe I deserve)
To grab my coat and chase you down the street (maybe I deserve)

To say it ain't you, it's my own insecurity (maybe I deserve)
For you to say, "Yes, I cheated on you" (maybe I deserve)
I won't care 'cause after all I put you through, maybe I deserve, girl (maybe I deserve)
To be mistreated sometimes (maybe I deserve)
To even be lied to sometimes, yeah, yeah, yeah (maybe I deserve)
Maybe, maybe you should go cheat on me (maybe I deserve)

Oh-oh (maybe I deserve, maybe I deserve)
Maybe I should sit and wait by the phone, uh (maybe I deserve)
'Cause I paged you about three or four times (maybe I deserve)
Girl, I know, girl, I know I then put you through (maybe I deserve)
And I know that I, and I know that I (maybe I deserve)
I know that I, that I deserve (maybe I deserve)

See, a man can't take another man pleasing our woman, oh, no, no
We can't even stand waiting by the phone, uh
But we do the same shit
Oh damn, oh damn, oh damn
