[Verse 1]
I see you, you with him
He ain't right but you don't trip
You stand by while he lies
Then turn right around and forgive
I can't take to see your face
With those tears running down your cheeks
But what can I do? I gotta stay true
Because deep down I'm still a G
[Pre-Hook]
And I don't want to come between you and your man
Even though I know I treat you better than he can
[Hook]
Girl, I can't help but wait
'Til you get that with him, it don't change
Can't help but wait
'Til you see that with me it ain't the same
Can't help but wait
'Til you see you for what you really are
Baby girl, you are a star
And I can't help but wait
[Verse 2]
It ain't fresh
To just let him call the shots
You're a queen, you should be
Getting all that someone's got
You should be rockin' the latest in purses
Bracelets and watches you're worth
Much more than an occasional
'I love you, I'm thinking of you'
[Pre-Hook & Hook]
And I don't want to come between you and your man
Even though I know I treat you better than he can
Girl, I can't help but wait
'Til you get that with him, it don't change
Can't help but wait
Til you see that with me it ain't the same
Can't help but wait
'Til you see you for what you really are
Baby girl, you are a star
And I can't help but wait
[Bridge]
Get it together
You can do better
See is believing
And I see what you need so
I'm going to play my position
Let you catch what you've been missing
I'm calling out, girl cuz
[Hook x2]
Girl, I can't help but wait
'Til you get that with him, it don't change
Can't help but wait
Til you see that with me it ain't the same
Can't help but wait
'Til you see you for what you really are
Baby girl, you are a star
And I can't help but wait
