I never thought U would be the one that I'd wanna run 2 (Run 2)
I never thought U would be the one that would make me care (Make me care)
And even though U done me wrong
4 some strange reason I can't explain
I get happy knowin' U phoned
Cuz your voice could cure my every pain
Why do we play this silly game?
I never thought U would be the one that I'd wanna give 2 (Give 2)
A diamond ring, anything that U asked me 2
But there U were, braggin' 2 your friends
Makin' up a story that's so lame
That I was down 2 be your sugar daddy
One way ticket 2 ghetto fame
Why do we play this silly game?
Every other night U weren't at home
Out in the streets, just acting grown
Never with a bodyguard or chaperone
Then I hear a rumor that breaks my heart
Instead of takin' care of yourself, U're tearin' yourself apart
Now why U wanna, why U wanna, why U wanna
Now why U wanna go and do that, love?
Why do we play this silly game?
I never thought U would be the one that I'd wanna run 2
I never thought U'd be the one that would make me care
No matter how far I'd run, I'll never be the same (I'll never be the same)
In the end, in the end, there's only us 2 blame
Why do we play this
Why do we play this silly
Why do we play this silly game?
Oh ahh, hmmm
Tell me why, oh why, oh why, oh why, why, why, why
Why do we play this silly game?
Game
