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.
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
