[Verse 1: Chris Brown]
I don't know why I even try 'cause you don't want this no more
I would rather leave before I hurt you
And I would have died long ago if I ain't have my faith
I see you're startin' to hate me, I see it in your face
My home don't feel like home
Just like my heart is empty
You change the number on your phone
So when I call, you ain't gotta listen

[Pre-Chorus: Chris Brown]
And all your girls think that I ain't shit
And they the same ones lost in the club, them bitches is basic
Now I'm number one that's lost in love, I can't take it
I'm on a knee, you're gonna see a grown man cry, I won't lie

[Chorus: Chris Brown]
I'm startin' to hate me
A little more and more each day
I don't know me
It's like I can't get out of my own way
And you don't love me
You don't love me
If I knew better
I would do it better

[Verse 2: Brandy]
Lookin' at the names on your list and I can't find me
I'm deep underwater, are you gon' let me drown?
I see you're happy now, you're the life of the party, actin' out
Ain't seen you in months, you ain't call me once

[Pre-Chorus: Brandy]
And all your boys say that I ain't shit
And they the same ones lost in the club, niggas is basic
Yeah, and I'm the one who lost in love and I can't take it
I'm on my knees, don't you hate to see me cry? I won't lie

[Chorus: Chris Brown, Brandy & Both]
I'm startin' to hate me (Ayy)
A little more and more each day
I don't know me
It's like I can't get out of my own way
And you don't love me
You don't love me (Oh)
If I knew better, yeah-yeah
I would do it better, better

[Bridge: Chris Brown, Brandy & Both]
Thinkin' 'bout you and I, thinkin' 'bout you and I
My heart's beating in slow motion, knowin' that it's over
Thoughts got me thinkin' 'bout suicide, baby, this is do or die
When you told me it's over, ain't no point in being sober
All I wanna do is fade away, fade away
I hope that God will forgive me
'Cause I know that you ain't gon' miss me
Baby girl, I won't try to say my goodbyes
You ain't gotta shed a tear for me, baby girl, don't cry

[Chorus: Chris Brown, Brandy & Both]
I'm startin' to hate me
A little more and more each day
I don't know me
It's like I can't get out of my own way
And you do't love me (Oh-oh)
You don't love me (Oh-oh)
If I knew better
I would do it better

[Outro: Chris Brown, Brandy & Both]
I would do better, I would do better
I would do better, I would do better
I would do better, I would do better
I would do better, I would do better
I would do better

Grammy-winning R&B singer, rapper, dancer, graffiti artist, illustrator and the first male lead artist to have his debut single top the Billboard Hot 100 in 8 years with “Run It!” in 2005, Breezy is undoubtedly a multifaceted artist. To add to this, he is the father of Royalty, a princess and the inspiration for his 7th studio album Royalty.

It’s undeniable his ability as a musician, dancer, and all-round entertainer. At the 54th Annual Grammy Awards (February 12th, 2012) his 4th studio album F.A.M.E. won the award for Best R&B Album and a huge number of other awards and nominations ranging from his debut as a 16 year old in 2005 to his most recent projects.

Brown’s career is long-lived, pristine and all about his music with hits such as “Look At Me Now,” “Turn Up the Music,” and “Loyal,” and successful collaborations with Omarion on his hit “Post to Be” and Lil Dicky's “Freaky Friday” in recent years.
