[Chords]
[Intro]
Gotta put on my glasses,
look on the bright side
Made it out of Brampton,
graduated from Five Guys,
oh
Do I captivate your mind?
Do I mean a little more to
 you?
Said she don't need a man,
they don't love you like I do,
 ooh (They don't love you like
I do)
They don't love you like I do,
they don't love you like I do
(They don't love you like I do)
(Afro blue, niggas)
