## Lyrics

**Lyrics**
[Intro: 2Pac]

Turn it up loud

Hahaha, ahahaha, hey man

You a little sucker for love, Pac!

Word up, hahahahaha

[Verse 1: 2Pac]

I should've seen

You was trouble right from the start, taught me so many lessons

How not to mess with broken hearts, so many questions

When this began we was the perfect match, perhaps

We had some problems but we workin at it, and now

The arguments are gettin' loud, I wanna stay

But I can't help from walkin' out just throw it away

Just take my hand and understand, if you could see

I never planned to be your man it just wasn't me

But now I'm searchin' for commitment, in other arms

I wanna shelter you from harm, don't be alarmed

Your attitude was the cause, you got me stressin'

Soon as I open up the door with your jealous questions

Like where can I be you're killin' me with your jealousy

Now my ambition's to be free

I can't breathe, cause soon as I leave, it's like a trap

I hear you callin' me to come back, I'm a sucka for love

[Chorus: Eric Williams]

What you won't do, do for love?

You tried everything, but you don't give up

What you won't do, do for love?

You tried everything, but you don't give up

[Verse 2: 2Pac]

Just when I thought I broke away and I'm feelin' happy

You try to trap me say you pregnant and guess who the daddy

Don't wanna fall for it, but in this case what could I do? So now I'm back

To makin promises to you, tryin' to keep it true

What if I'm wrong, a trick to keep me holdin on

Tryin' to be strong and in the process, keep you goin'

I'm 'bout to lose my composure, I'm gettin' close

To packin' up and leavin' notes, and gettin' ghost

Tell me who knows, a peaceful place where I can go

To clear my head I'm feelin' low, losin' control

My heart is sayin' leave, oh, what a tangled web we weave

When we conspire to conceive, and now

You gettin' calls at the house, guess you cheatin'

That's all I need to hear, 'cause I'm leavin', I'm out the door

Never no more will you see me, this is the end

'Cause now I know you've been cheatin', I'm a sucka for love

[Chorus: Eric Williams]

What you won't do, do for love?

You tried everything, but you don't give up

What you won't do, do for love?

You tried everything, but you don't give up

[Verse 3: 2Pac]

Now he left you with scars, tears on your pillow and you still stay

As you sit and pray, hoping the beatings'll go away

It wasn't always a hit-and-run relationship

It used to be love, happiness and companionship

Remember when I treated you good

I moved you up to the hills, out the ills of the ghetto hood

Me and you a happy home, when it was on

I had a love to call my own

I should've seen you was trouble but I was lost, trapped in your eyes

Preoccupied with gettin' tossed, no need to lie

You had a man and I knew it, you told me

Don't worry 'bout it, we can do it now I'm under pressure

Make a decision, 'cause I'm waitin', when I'm alone

I'm on the phone havin' secret conversations, huh

I wanna take your misery, replace it with happiness

But I need your faith in me, I'm a sucka for love

[Chorus: Eric Williams]

What you won't do, do for love?

You tried everything, but you don't give up

What you won't do, do for love?

You tried everything, but you don't give up

[Outro: Eric Williams]

What you won't do, do for love

You tried everything, but you don't give up

What you won't do, do for love

You tried everything, but you don't give up

What you won't do, (Do for love)

You tried everything, but you don't give up

What you won't do, (Do for love)

You tried everything, but you don't give up

Do for love, yeah baby yeah

Do for love
