You don't have to believe me I'm just speaking my mind

you look lovely as always you get that all the time

you don't have to believe me when I tell you that i'm impressed

but you sure better believe me when I say you deserve the best


you don't have to believe me but i'm not gonna lie

i've seen all the attention you get from other guys

you don't have to believe me when i tell you i like your dress

but you sure better believe me when i say you deserve respect


CHORUS

it feels like nobody's on your side no access to your pride

you gotta learn to take control your whole body is a temple so

you've got a choice to make and your mind is what's at stake

so before we build this love please believe that you're good enough


you don't have to believe me but I'm not often wrong

they've been taking advantage and it's gone on too long

you don't have to believe me when we're dancing out on the floor

but you sure better believe me when i say you are worth much more


CHORUS


you don't have to believe me

but you sure better believe me when i tell you you're due for love


i don't want nobody else 

and nobody else is gonna treat you the way they ought to

and that's what you deserve

if I could make you see it

so you can truly believe it

so you won't even need it
