Mary J. Blige, Dave Young - Alone lyrics

Baby, can I talk to you for a minute? Oh
Oh, listen
Boy, you had me fooled, I can't believe you
'Cause you never done anything that
I asked of you
Always talkin' like I just can't do right
Blamin' me for everything
And that just ain't right

('Cause, I can't do this alone, alone)
I don't know what to do
I'm tryna stay with you
(It's not all about you)
(Boy, I can't do this alone, alone)
You're makin' this harder
Boy, I'm bout to leave ya
'Cause, I can't do this alone
(Alone, alone, alone)

And I gave you everything I had
There, and I never said nothin', mmm
Did everything for you, mmm
(And what did you do?)
What did you do? Nothing
Then you got the nerve to
Wanna run your mouth
Like I ain't never held you down, no
Baby, what did I do to deserve this? Mmm
'Cause, I put you on a shelf
Girl, I need help
'Cause, I can't do this alone, baby

('Cause, I can't do this alone, alone)
I don't know what to do
I'm tryna stay with you
(It's not all about you) , I can't do it
(Girl, I can't do this alone, alone)
You're makin' this harder
Girl, I'm about to leave ya
I can't do this alone (Alone, alone, alone)

And I'm trying to work this out
(I'm trying to work this out)
But boy, you're changing now
(Ooh, you're changing now) what do I do?
(What do I do?) , I'm
So confused (I'm so confused, baby)
And I'm trying to work this out
(And I tried it all)
But girl, you're changing now (So did I)
What do I do?
(What do I do? What do I do?)
I'm so confused

('Cause, I can't do this alone, alone)
But, I'm tryna stay with you, yeah
(It's not all about you)
No, no, no, it's not all about you
(Boy, I can't do this alone, alone)
Tried everything, woo
I've done everything, woah
But, I can't do this alone
(I feel ya, I feel ya, This alone, alone)
Baby, help me
Baby, help me (It's not all about you)
It's not all about you, no, no, no, no, no
(Boy, I can't do this alone, alone)
I wanna stay together
(I wanna stay together too)
Girl, I'm 'bout to leave ya
(I'm 'bout to leave you too)
'Cause, I can't do this alone

I don't know what to do
'Cause boy, I'm so tired of
You, yeah, yeah, oh, oh
Said I don't know what to do
Girl, I'm so tired of you
Do what you gotta do
'Cause, I, I can't do this alone

('Cause, I can't do this alone, alone)
Oh, I tried everything
But, I can't do it no more
(It's not all about you)
It's not all about you
(Boy, I can't do this alone, alone)
Baby, I'm so alone, what I'm 'posed to do?
(I don't know) girl, I gotta leave you
(I don't know what to tell you)
'Cause, I can't do it a (Alone, alone, alone)

Said I can't do this, no
Said I can't do this, no
Said I tried everything, I done everything
Oh, what we gonna do, baby?
