I left my girl back home
I don't love her no more
And she'll never fucking know that
These fucking eyes that I'm staring at
Let me see that ass
Look at all this cash
And I emptied out my cards to
Now I'm fucking leaning on that

Bring your love baby I could bring my shame
Bring the drugs baby I could bring my pain
I got my heart right here
I got my scars right here
Bring the cups baby I could bring the drink
Bring your body baby I could bring you fame
And that's my motherfucking words too
Just let me motherfucking love you

Listen ma I'll give you all I got
Get me off of this
I need confidence in myself yeah yeah yeah oh yeah oh
Listen ma I'll give you all of me
Give me all of it
I need all of it to myself

So tell me you love me
Only for tonight
Only for one night, even though you don't love me oh oh
Just tell me you love me
I'll give you what I need
I'll give you all of me, even though you don't love me oh oh

Let me see you dance
I love to watch you dance
Take you down another level
And get you dancing with the devil
Take a shot of this
But I'm warning you
I'm on that shit that you can't smell baby
So put down your perfume

Bring your love baby I could bring my shame
Bring the drugs baby I could bring my pain
Oh I got my heart right here
Oh I got my scars right here
Bring the cups baby I could bring the drink
Bring your body baby I could bring you fame
And that's my motherfucking words too
So let me motherfucking love you

Listen ma I'll give you all I got
Get me off of this (Off of this)
I need confidence in myself (Confidence)
Listen ma I'll give you all of me
Give me all of it
I need all of it to myself (I need all of it)

So tell me you love me
Only for tonight
Only for one night, even though you don't love me oh
Just tell me you love me
I'll give you what I need
I'll give you all of me, even though you don't love me oh
