Let me be frank I'm sitting looking at you, it's a beautiful thing I see the real you like a few of your friends I take you for granted then I do it again Can I be frank? Your momma begging me to leave you alone She don't understand that I'm not the one I am not the one that be leaving you worn Can I be frank? Does she make you laugh, is the chemistry there? Look right in her eyes so you know that it's real Skip certain questions then you setup to fail Baby, don't rush Moving too fast that's a penalty baby Slow down and build the energy baby Engage, girl I've known you since the sixth grade baby Can't get nothing past me There's cracks in your smile and your voice sounds raspy When I leave out, I check it out for you You don't even gotta ask me Can I be frank? Do me a favor, just let me be frank You don't know who you're dealing with baby
You need to keep a tight circle anyway baby I'll always be here for security baby Let me be frank We can get through anything baby Get through the pain of tomorrow today I see the real you, this is only a phase Let me be frank Girl I'm just trying to keep you from making simple mistakes Girl let me be frank, I still need you but you don't see me in that way No more, no more, no more Cause I'm not what they used to be Who could've known? Who could've known? That I was just a phase? Thought your momma liked me, said she really liked me Thought we were the right thing, I thought we were Saw you as the right thing Thought you were the good thing Honest to god, was a good thing I know that this was a good thing You gotta fight for the good things Fight to the good, fight through the bad Can I be frank?
