He thinks since he’s a man with nothing
I’m losing my desire too, I can’t do it
Doesn’t bother me where he thinks I stand
Leave him with his fallacies
Look at all the lovin’ we do
Before you make your mind up, hear me
So good it’s a sin
Tell him how you feel about me
I’m not just another player playin’
You see my heart is rich with love for you
What am I guilty of? What did or didn’t I do?
Or I can no longer be yours
The smaller the heart will be, not true
He says that he’s a man with nothing
Maybe I can’t be myself with somebody
Find the meaning in the words I’m sayin’
So I don’t wanna apologize for bein’ a superstar
This should be about love, not money
But honey, you know that’s not so
Just ‘cause I can buy you a lotta things or take you any place
Tell him that enough is enough
Material things, but that’s not true
He wants you to believe that I’m tryin’ to buy your love
I’m bein’ my true self, just doin’ what I can
Your love’s never been better
But it’s time for a decision
I don’t think I have to apologize, I work for this
I don’t wanna have to apologize
And I don’t appreciate being criticized for who I am
Yeah, baby
No one gave it to me
You’ve always been a willing receiver of my love
‘Cause that’s what he would do
He says that I can only give you
I’m losing self-respect from trying
He thinks I won you with materiality
That’s just what money brings
Oo yeah
‘Cause I’m in love with who you are
I don’t wanna change you
I don’t wanna have to apologize or give a damn
I don’t wanna feel I’ve been penalized for who I am
I work hard for my money
Just don’t return a disbeliever
Is it me or him?
I don’t care what bull he believes
That’s just what money brings
He wants you to believe that I’m tryin’ to buy your love
But some fools think the deeper the pocket
Just ‘cause I can buy you a lotta things or take you any place
Just ‘cause I can drive in a better car
It’s simply time for him to go, so let him go
Tell him now, let him go
And let him fill your mind with lies about me
Who believes such things are true
I just want you to see things clearly
Don’t let him try to take you from me
That he’s got better love for you, no way
Haven’t I proved that I’m here for you?
‘Cause that’s what he would do
Live in a bigger house just like a superstar
I don’t wanna have to apologize or give a damn
I can’t keep standing on the side
Don’t let him make you doubt my love for you
I’m only tryin’ to share me with you
I don’t wanna feel like I’m penalized for being rich
And even if he understood me
I don’t wanna feel I’ve been penalized
