[Stacy Barthe, Maino - Do Better lyrics]
If I knew better
I would do better for you babe
Wish I knew better
Then I wouldn't make the same mistakes
Late nights you up and I ain't home still
No text, my phone goin' to voicemail
Your inner thoughts sayin' you need
To be goin' soon i got the nerve to come
In smellin' like perfume
Damn, is it really that I'm mixed up?
I'm thin like I lost somethin'
At the strip club
Still playin' but my conscious
Yellin' grow up
Like a job, it's so hard to get a hoes up
Never thought that I ever would need a woman
The truth is I never learned
How to treat a woman
And I don't really know what it's
Like to be a woman but all I know one day my
Daughter's gon' be a woman
Can't lie, I'm a dog, I'm a cheater
Apologize for the times I mistreat you
And I keep sayin' sorry, you like whatever
Don't want you to leave but
I know you deserve better
If I knew better
I would do better for you babe
Wish I knew better
Then I wouldn't make the same mistakes
Oh, if I knew, if I knew, if only I knew
Then I would do better, better
Better for you
Yeah, and I know you don't relate to
The kind of pain I'm in
Battlin' my demons, just the ways of men
Good girl at home but these
Hoes ain't playin' fair
Fightin' temptation
Keep me inside your prayers
I hate to see you hurt
That's true for what it's worth
And please never blame yourself
For all my dirt, hey
I know you tired but you holdin' on
What'd I do
Turned around and still do you wrong
Never too big to say I'm sorry
To the women in my life
That had abortions by me
Wasn't able to be the man you needed
This life girl, I wasn't ready to leave it
(you know it's true)
Your friends say why you takin' that?
They tell you to leave
Don't ever take him back
I keep sayin' sorry, you like whatever
Don't want you to leave but
I know you deserve better
If I knew better
I would do better for you babe
Wish I knew better
Then I wouldn't make the same mistakes
Oh, if I knew, if I knew, if only I knew
Then I would do better, better
Better for you
I would do better for you babe
Wish I knew better
Then I wouldn't make the same mistakes
Late nights you up and I ain't home still
No text, my phone goin' to voicemail
Your inner thoughts sayin' you need
To be goin' soon i got the nerve to come
In smellin' like perfume
Damn, is it really that I'm mixed up?
I'm thin like I lost somethin'
At the strip club
Still playin' but my conscious
Yellin' grow up
Like a job, it's so hard to get a hoes up
Never thought that I ever would need a woman
The truth is I never learned
How to treat a woman
And I don't really know what it's
Like to be a woman but all I know one day my
Daughter's gon' be a woman
Can't lie, I'm a dog, I'm a cheater
Apologize for the times I mistreat you
