Sometimes I feel like f*ck you and the horse you rode in on
Gotta be a pill you rollin' on
To think so highly of your bullshit
To think that everybody around you is stupid
You must be out your rabbit-ass mind
You ain't all that fine and you ain't always right
Some might fall for the lies
But not I

See, you want me to change
You want me to risk everything
But don't want to make no sacrifices
You don't want to make no sacrifices, no
See, you want me to change
You want me to take all of the blame
But don't want to make no sacrifices
You don't want to make no sacrifices, no

Selfish love
Baby, you're selfish, love
You're way too selfish, love
You're just too selfish, love, yeah

I swear you don't take no accountability
When you play on my insecurities
Makin' excuse when you want to leave
And when you're good and ready, you come back to me
You must've gone and bumped your head
See, you gon' make me get another man instead
To remind you of who I am
And never forget

'Cause you want me to change
Want me to risk everything
But don't want to make no sacrifices
Don't want to make no sacrifices, no
See, you want me to change
Want me to take all of the blame
But don't want to make no sacrifices
You don't want to make no sacrifices, no

Selfish love
Baby, you're selfish, love
You're way too selfish, love
You're way too selfish for my love, ooh

Baby, I'm done giving up all my love
Lock it up to keep it from
Anyone whose heart is numb
And I'ma be selfish for once, ayy

You want me to change
Want me to risk everything
But don't want to make no sacrifices
Don't want to make no sacrifices, no
You want me to change
Want me to take all of the blame
But don't want to make no sacrifices
You don't want to make no sacrifices, no

Selfish love
You're just too selfish, love
You're just too selfish, love
You're just too selfish for all my love, yeah
