Your love's never been better So good it's a sin But it's time for a decision Is it me or him? Before you make your mind up, hear me I just want you to see things clearly This should be about love, not money Don't let him try to take you from me I don't wanna have to apologize I don't wanna feel I've been penalized Just ‘cause I can drive in a better car Live in a bigger house just like a superstar He says that I can only give you Material things, but that's not true You see my heart is rich with love for you Don't let him make you doubt my love for you Yeah, baby I work hard for my money No one gave it to me But some fools think the deeper the pocket The smaller the heart will be, not true I'm only tryin' to share me with you Look at all the lovin' we do Find the meaning in the words I'm sayin' I'm not just another player playin' I don't wanna have to apologize (or give a damn) And I don't appreciate being criticized (for who I am) Just ‘cause I can buy you a lotta things Or take you anyplace That's just what money brings He wants you to believe that I'm tryin' to buy your love ‘Cause that's what he would do He thinks since he's a man with nothing That he's got better love for you No way Tell him now, let him go Or I can no longer be yours Tell him how you feel about me I can't keep standing on the side Don't let him fill your mind with lies about me Leave him with his fallacies I don't care what bull he believes Tell him that enough is enough Just don't return a disbeliever You've always been a willing receiver of my love I don't think I have to apologize (I work for this) I don't wanna feel like I'm penalized (for being rich) Doesn't bother me where he thinks I stand I'm bein' my true self Just doin' what I can He thinks I won you with materiality But honey, you know that's not so And even if he understood me It's simply time for him to go---so let him go! I don't wanna change you ‘cause I'm in love with who you are So I don't wanna apologize for bein' a superstar Haven't I proved that I'm here for you? What am I guilty of? What did or didn't I do? Maybe I can't be myself with somebody Who believes such things are true I'm losing self-respect from trying I'm losing my desire too---I can't do it I don't wanna have to apologize (or give a damn) I don't wanna feel I've been penalized (for who I am) Just ‘cause I can buy you a lotta things Or take you anyplace That's just what money brings He wants you to believe that I'm tryin' to buy your love ‘Cause that's what he would do
