(Verse)
We may disagree, but sometimes I gotta give you those right lines
I'm protecting our love, cause sometimes you won't even understand
Cause you don't need to know how many ladies try to get at me
Cause if you find out, you gon' be mad at me
And try to make it my fault, and we're fussin', 
You ain't even down with that murder

(Chorus)
Baby, I just wanna be the one to love you
When it all goes down, to touch you, 
That's what I'll do, even if it's
Tears, lies, then paradise 
I ain't neva commit no crimes,
It's just some time away we get down in crime
Always so consumed when the facts ain't right
Done with all the tears and lies, before we get to paradise
Tears, lies, then paradise 

(Verse)
Even if you don't understand, just be with it
Is there anything wrong with a man who's just tryna make it alright?
Even when it's otherways, give it up so can upper-hand
Cause you'll neva understand that sometime they get it right
I gotta protect what you can see, my pride
Cause I neva eva eva wanna leave you alone
But sometimes, I gotta move on my own
Sometimes, I gotta hit up this road
Kick down doors, put checks that they are

(Chorus)
Baby, I just wanna be the one to love you
When it all goes down, to touch you, 
That's what I'll do, even if it's
Tears, lies, then paradise 
I ain't neva commit no crimes,
It's just some time away we get down in crime
Always so consumed when the facts ain't right
Done with all the tears and lies, before we get to paradise
Tears, lies, then paradise
