She Ain'T Me

Do you understand it
now?

It's true the grass is not 
always greener on that 
other side.

We have the same eye color. 

We even have the same
body type. 

But there's one big difference 
she ain't me.

She Ain't me and she will 
never be me.

You left a rose for a weed.

Boy you are a king, so you 
are supposed to be with 
a queen and not a peasant, 

You keep telling me she
treats you better

But your friends are saying 
otherwise. 

You left a diamond for a
cubic zirconia

Remember not everything 
that sparkle is the real 
deal.

She might look like me,
but I doubt that.

She might even act like me,
naw I don't think so.

Do you understand it 
now?

She Ain't me and she will 
never be me.
