The What Ifs

[Verse 1]
See, I got all the right questions
And you've got all the wrong answers
And I got all of the sadness
And you end up with all the laughter
I play by the rules and I treat you right
But you get the last laugh every fight
Now tell me, baby, do that sound right?
Sound right, sound right

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't blame it on love, no
'Cause common sense, it plays its part
I can't blame it on you, no
'Cause you don't rule my heart
Can't blame it on her, yeah
She can't be that smart messin' with you
She gon' get a broken heart
So what if? What if? What if? (Yeah, ooh)

[Verse 2]
See every time I try to leave
You think of new reasons on why I should stay
And every time I tell you, "No"
I can't believe you still get mad
Cause I won't give you your way
And it don't hurt no more
When I see you with that other bitch
And lately you cry and I don't know why
And I can't understand this shit

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't blame it on love, no
'Cause common sense, it plays its part
I can't blame it on you, no
'Cause you don't rule my heart
Can't blame it on her, yeah, yeah
She can't be that smart messin' with you
She gon' get a broken heart
So what if? What if? What if?

[Chorus]
What if things could change?
And what if you weren't estranged?
Tellin' me no more 'cause what I know of you
Is you walkin' out the front door
And what if things were different?
And what if you paid your share of the rent?
And what if you was the nigga what I fell in love with?
What if? What if? What if?
What if things could change?
And what if you weren't estranged?
Tellin' me no more 'cause what I know of you
Is you walkin' out the front door
And what if things were different?
And what if you paid your share of the rent?
And what if you was the nigga what I fell in love with?
Ohhhh

[Verse 3]
Waitin' on the day, yeah
When I can look at you and know what I see
Waitin' on the day, yay-ay, ay
When I can figure out why you fucks with me
I'm waitin' on the damn day
When I can force myself to leave
And I'm waitin' on the day
When I don't have to ask, "Why?"

[Chorus]
What if things could change?
And what if you weren't estranged?
Tellin' me no more 'cause what I know of you
Is you walkin' out the front door
And what if things were different?
And what if you paid your share of the rent?
And what if you was the nigga what I fell in love with?
What if? What if? What..
