View the lyrics
You take the clothes off my back, and I let you
You steal the food right out of my mouth
And I watch you eat it, I still don't know why
Why our love is so much
Ohhh
You curse my name, in spite to put me to shame
Have my laundry in the streets, dirty or clean
Give it up for fame
But I still don't know why
Why I love it so much
Yeah

And baby, it's amazing I'm in this maze with you
I just can't crack your code
One day you screaming you love me loud
The next day you're so cold
One day you here, one day you there, one day you care
You're so unfair
Sipping from the cup till it runneth over, (uh, uh) Holy Grail

Uh, Blue told me remind you niggas
Uh, fuck that shit y'all talk about, I'm the nigga
Uh, caught up in all these lights and cameras, uh
But look what that shit did to Hammer, uh
Goddamnit, I like it
The bright lights is enticing
But look what it did to Tyson
All that money in one night, 30 mill for one fight
But soon as all the money blows, all the pigeons take flight
Fuck the fame, keep cheating on me
What I do, I took her back, fool me twice, that's my bad
I can't even blame her for that
Enough to make me wanna murder
Momma please just get my bail
I know nobody to blame, Kurt Cobain, I did it to myself, uh
And we all just entertainers
And were stupid, and contagious
And we all just entertainers

And baby, it's amazing I'm in this maze with you
I just can't crack your code
One day you're screaming you love me loud
The next day you're so cold
One day you here, one day you there, one day you care
You're so unfair
Sipping from the cup, till it runneth over, Holy Grail

Now I got tattoos on my body
Psycho bitches in my lobby
I got haters in the paper, photo shoots with paparazzi
Can't even take my daughter for a walk
See them by the corner store
I feel like I'm cornered off
Enough is enough, I'm calling this off
Who the fuck I'm kidding though?
I'm getting high, sitting low
Sliding by in that big body
Curtains all in my window
This fame hurts, but this chain works
I think back, you asked the same person
If this is all you had to deal with
Nigga deal with it, this shit ain't work, this light work

Camera snapping, my eyes hurt
Niggas dying back where I was birthed
Fuck your iris and IRS
Get the hell up off of your high horse
You got the shit that niggas die for, dry yours
Why you mad, take the good with the bad
Don't throw that baby out with the bath water
You're still alive
Still that nigga, nigga you survived
You still getting bigger
Nigga, living the life, vanilla wafers in a villa
Illest nigga alive, Michael Jackson thriller

And baby, it's amazing I'm in this maze with you
I just can't crack your code
One day you 're screaming you love me loud
The next day you're so cold
One day you here, one day you there, one day you care
You're so unfair
Sipping from the cup, till it runneth over, Holy Grail

You get the air out my lungs, whenever you need it
And you'd take the blade right out my heart, so you can watch me bleed
And I still don't know why (Don't know why)
Why I love you so much,
Yeah
And you play this game, in spite to drive me insane
I got it tattooed on my sleeve, forever in ink
With guess who's name
But I still don't know why (Don't know why)
Why I love it so much, yeah

And baby, it's amazing I'm in this maze with you
I just can't crack your code
One day you're screaming you love me loud
The next day youre so cold
One day you here, one day you there, one day you care
You're so unfair
Sipping from the cup, till it runneth over, Holy Grail

(Don't know why)
(Don't know why)
