August Alsina

Born and bred from the streets of New Orleans, Louisiana, enter into the game, 21-year-old August Alsina... With the love and hustle of the Crescent City running through his veins, August is eager to follow in the footsteps of the NOLA music legends that paved his way.

This is for the girl down the hall
Misused and abused
Yeah, yeah yeah
Pick ya head up love, smile
This is for you

Girl I know sometimes that I mistreat you, and you still come back
And I see your homegirls try to reach you, but you ain't hearing none of that
They try to get through, they say I ain't the move
I don't know, cause girl it might be true
When they tell you, you should walk away but you stay anyway

Girl I think it's best for me to say this, I ain't no good
And your heart ain't something I should play with
So let's get it understood
I ain't trying to ruin your life
If anything I just want to make it right
And tell the judge I ain't even gotta plead my case
I can tell my baby to her face

I was just your nigga next door
But girl I see more for you, (I see more for you)
And you ain't gotta have no fear, no I'll always be here for you, girl I'm here for you
And I know you may not end up with me
'Cause I'm still playing outchea in these streets
But I'm just saying
You deserve better, I'm saying, you deserve better

I know that love can be blind
But you should open your eyes (open your eyes)
Take a look in the mirror
Baby girl you a prize
And any man that don't see that you should let his ass go, believe that
Because his love ain't real
What he won't do another nigga will

Girl I think it's best for me to say this, I ain't no good
And your heart ain't something I should play with
So let's get it understood
I ain't trying to ruin your life
If anything I just want to make it right
And tell the judge I ain't even gotta plead my case
I can tell my baby to her face

See I was just your nigga next door
But girl I see more for you, (I see more for you)
And you ain't gotta have no fear, no I'll always be here for you, girl I'm here for you
And I know you may not end up with me,
'Cause I'm still playing outchea in these streets
But I'm just saying
You deserve better, I'm saying, you deserve better

You deserve all the love, (you deserve all the love)
You deserve all the care, (you deserve all the care)
You deserve all that and more, (you deserve all that and more)
You deserve better, you deserve better
You deserve to laugh, (you deserve to laugh)
Baby you deserve to smile, (baby you deserve to smile)
You deserve the best of everything
You deserve better

See I was just your nigga next door
But girl I see more for you, (girl I see more)
And you ain't gotta have no fear, no I'll always be here for you, girl I'm here for you
And I know you may not end up with me,
'Cause I'm still playing outchea in these streets
But I'm just saying
You deserve better, I'm saying, you deserve better

Yeah, yeah yeah
You deserve better
Smile
You deserve better
