Monica - U Should've Know Better

I didn’t ask to go with you to Mexico
I really didn’t need the shopping spree
And La or Melrose, boy if you didn’t know it 
Now you know, I didn’t need the furs or the jewelries
Because martial things don’t mean much to me 
And ever since you been gone 
I have been holding us down on my own

I never ever cheated
I never ever lied 
So u can stop asking me asking me why
Why I never left you, and why I kept it real
And why im still with you

You should’ve known better than to think I would leave 
You should’ve known better than to doubt me 
It don’t matter if you are up 
matter if you are down
Either way im gonna be around 
You should’ve known that I would stay by your side 
You should’ve known your girl was gonna ride or die 
And it just don’t matter if ya rich or poor 
Out or in doing 5 to 10 
You should’ve known better

What makes you think that I would forget about you 
Think about it who comes to see ya 
Every Saturday and Monday I was on that receiver
It’s me your girl your life your world 
My family your friends they just don’t understand 
They say I should just leave you lone
But I say that they should just leave us lone 
Don’t u get it

I never ever cheated
I never ever lied 
So u can stop asking me asking me why
Why I never left you, and why I kept it real
And why im still with you

You should’ve known better than to think I would leave 
You should’ve known better than to doubt me 
It don’t matter if you are up 
matter if you are down
Either way im gonna be around 
You should’ve known that I would stay by your side 
You should’ve known your girl was gonna ride or die 
And it just don’t matter if ya rich or poor 
Out or in doing 5 to 10 
You should’ve known better
