Paper Tiger - Don't Know Why lyrics
See me and hip hop We've been seein' each other for awhile now And we just can't seem to get this relationship together She knows I love her She just won't show it back sometimes But I'll keep chasing you baby Don't know why I love you Everyday I be asking myself but I just Don't know why I love you (Verse 1) I don't know why I love you You think that I should hate After all the sh** I've done, and you can't reciprocate I'm so hungry I can eat the fork, spoon and the plate As I stand here by your side and do nothing but wait I've done the ground work Released the mixtapes Promoted myself And built up the fan base But you treat every song like this was our first date And you still won't give the p**y up My blue balls ache I light another cigarette and try to relax As I pour my blood, sweat, and soul on a track What don't you like about me? Is it cause I'm not black? Did I do something wrong? Swear to god I'll take it back All I got's a dream and a lot of ambition But you givin' them the opportunity, you can't listen? Don't you see these other dudes are in it for the money? I'm in it cause I love you, can't you just love me? Have a little faith baby just trust me I know you like perfection so I'm glad you didn't rush me But now I'm ready As ready as I'll ever be Court case behind me, nothing left but you and me Don't know what you do to me? Let me explain You're my method of escape whenever Webby's in pain My form of expression The blood in my veins Since I met you, my life has never been the same I'm willing to throw my personal life down the drain Just to have you by my side until the day you see my name In either the obituaries or the bill boards But you? You're the only one I'd ever k** for I'll murder my competition if that's the only way you'd listen Catch a case over you and spend my days in prison Every second all I hear is a beat While I'm poppin' Ambien just tryin' to fall asleep I swear I'll never cheat For you, it's nothing but loyalty But are you here for me, b**h? Don't you f**ing toy with me You either with me or you're not Nothing else So I'll stand here waitin' for you all by myself like.. You took control of me Don't know why I love you (Verse 2) Why do I still love you? Why am I still tryin'? I've watched you blow too many others up while I was grindin' You made me hate myself But I come back Cause you're all I know, I can't do nothing but rap You won't let me have a girlfriend You keep me too busy They say I gotta choose and I choose you with me But still you show me nothing back, b**h You're heartless, you're cold f** this rap sh** You use me Abuse me And watch me grind Watch these little f**in' punks try and bite my rhymes You let these others blow up extra fast And put them in a double XL freshman cla** Would you sell your soul just to buy you the spot In history By some b**h who sat by and just watched? You don't want me as I climb to the top? Fine But you're stuck with me, b**h Like it or not
