Chris Brown

Loyal reader Bird informed me that troubled singer Chris Brown released a new song this morning, titled “I Can’t Win”, in which he laments about being with a girl who’s in love with a bottle. I’m not one to put much stock in song lyrics, but in this case, I wonder who he’s talking about?

    Why you angry all the time?
    Why you don’t wanna ride for me?
    Girl we used to make love
    When you called I would follow
    Now the only thing you love is a bottle

Listen to the song and read the lyrics after the break.

Chris Brown

I Can’t Win

    [Verse 1]

    Tell me what did I do
    To make you hate me so much?
    Why you angry all the time?
    Why you don’t wanna ride for me?

    Girl we used to make love
    When you called I would follow
    Now the only thing you love is a bottle
    The only thing you got left is a shadow

    [Hook]

    Don’t let this shit come between us
    I’m wrong, you’re right
    It’s okay with my heart
    But it’s not how it’s supposed to be

    You always say “I’m done. We’re finished!”
    Fuck it! I’m wrong, you’re right.
    Please God, help us
    Guess I’ma leave it up to you tonight

    [Chorus]

    She ain’t bluffin’
    She gon’ do it
    I think it’s time for me to face the music
    I could really give a damn about my pride

    Though you been actin’ stupid
    Goin’ back and forth with the lies
    Never compromise
    Girl if you love me, better prove it

    Baby, I can’t win,
    I can’t win for losing
