Aloe Blacc - Can't Stay lyrics

What does it feel like to do everything you can For the woman that you love just to be a better man It feels something like a fat slap in the face From the woman that you love when she getting on your case About who you call and who you hanging with About who when why where what and it Get on your nerves 'cause you don't need this mess Get on your nerves 'cause you don't need this stress Be on your mind all the time like pay checks Be on your mind all the time like safe s** Pissing you off 'cause she know you's a grown man Pissing you off 'cause she don't seem to understand You need space but she taking up all the room She s**ing up all your space like a vacuum Just do what I do tell her like this come here You don't gotta go home, but you can't stay here Oh, oh, when you go I will not stop you You ain't got to go home But you can't stay here In particular allow me to explain something I was trying to be with this lady but she stayed fronting Spending my money and asking me for this and that But when I needed money she don't wanna give back To the cause I had to pause and reflect on it -But I just let it slide though Because it felt so good to have her in my ride though She was the ring master I was just a sideshow More like a clown but dig the way it went down I found she was sleeping 'round when I went out of town I didn't call her for weeks, she hit me up fretting I told her take your new freak and get to half stepping She called her cousin told her cousin I was really buggin She brought her cousin to my house look what the cat drug in A little pip squeak weak like a wet twig I told him come back when you get big then I told her That's the way it is and the way it has to be It's about time I let me look after me It could never be ever after happily If we stay together it will be a catastrophe
