You Deserve - August Alsina

This is for the girl down the hall

Misused and abused, yeah, yeah yeah

Pick ya head up love, smile

This for you, this for you

Girl, I know sometimes that I mistreat you and you still come back

And I see your homegirls try to reach you, but you ain’t hearing none of that

They try to get through, they say I ain’t the move, I don’t know 'cause girl,

it might be true

When they tell you, you should walk away but you stay anyway

Girl, I think it’s best for me to say this, I ain’t no good

And your heart ain’t something I should play with, so let’s get it understood

I ain’t tryna ruin your life, if anything I just want to make it right

And tell the judge I ain’t even gotta plead my case, I can tell my baby to her

face

See I was just your nigga next door

But girl, I see more for you, I see more for you

And you ain’t gotta have no fear

Know I’ll always be here for you, girl I’m here for you

And I know you may not end up with me, it ain’t gotta be me

'Cause I’m still playing outchea in these streets

But I’m just saying you deserve better

I’m saying, you deserve better

I know that love can be blind but you should open your eyes, open your eyes

Take a look in the mirror, baby girl, you’re a prize

And any man that don’t see that, you should let his ass go, believe that

Because his love ain’t real, what he won’t do another nigga will

Girl, I think it’s best for me to say this, I ain’t no good

And your heart ain’t something I should play with, so let’s get it understood

I ain’t tryna ruin your life, if anything I just want to make it right

And tell the judge I ain’t even gotta plead my case, I can tell my baby to her

face

See I was just your nigga next door

But girl, I see more for you, I see more for you

And you ain’t gotta have no fear

Know I’ll always be here for you, girl I’m here for you

And I know you may not end up with me, it ain’t gotta be me

'Cause I’m still playing outchea in these streets

But I’m just saying you deserve better

I’m saying, you deserve better

You deserve all the love

You deserve all the care

You deserve all that and more

You deserve better, you deserve better

You deserve to laugh

Baby you deserve to smile

You deserve the best of everything

You deserve better

See I was just your nigga next door

But girl, I see more for you, I see more for you

And you ain’t gotta have no fear

Know I’ll always be here for you, girl I’m here for you

And I know you may not end up with me, it ain’t gotta be me

'Cause I’m still playing outchea in these streets

But I’m just saying you deserve better

I’m saying, you deserve better

Yeah, yeah yeah

You deserve better

Smile

You deserve better
