Angie Stone, on the remix with who?
Neptunes

[Verse 1]
I've had my bouts with love
I've been going through things you never heard of
Breakin' up and gettin' back together
Faced with all kinds of stormy weather
There was a time thought I'd lose my mind
My friends and family warned me
Time after time after time

[Chorus]
Tell me how you gonna get something
All you gave up was nothing
Every day, every day, every day, baby
You twisted my heart
Tell me why I got to be buggin' now that I've got everything
Every day, every way you gonna pay

[Verse 2]
Now baby it took a few
For me to get over you
I didn't think I could make it
But my faith in God said I could check it
Back in the day I wasn't good enough for you
I'd do anything to win you over
You took advantage of my attention
Oh, did I forget to mention

[Pre-Chorus]
Every day you did the same thing
Every hour you'd switch up on me
Every minute I'd be forgiving
And every second we'd be reliving
Every day you did the same thing
Every hour you'd switch up on me
Every minute I'd be forgiving
And every second we'd be reliving

[Chorus]
Tell me how you gonna get something
All you gave up was nothing
Every day, every day, every day, baby
(Every day, baby)
You twisted my heart
(Tell me why)
Tell me why I got to be buggin' now that I've got everything
Every day, every way you gonna pay

[Bridge]
Well, it was your attitude, much too shrewd
Caused you to lose, now who's the fool?
It was your attitude, much too shrewd
Caused you to lose, now who's the fool?
'Cause all I had was love for you
And there ain't nothing more to do
'Cause I had a crazy, crazy, crazy love, baby, babe, baby, baby, yeah
See, when you come home early
Don't come without bringing respect
'Cause I ain't got no time for packing up your sh.., ooh
Uh, live your life, ooh, ooh, ah, ooh

[Chorus]
Tell me how you gonna get something
All you gave up was nothing
Every day, every day, every day, baby
You twisted my heart
Tell me why I got to be buggin' now that I've got everything
Every day, every way you gonna pay
