The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I never had time for you

Spending my nights, caught in that life

The hell am I supposed to do

When everything wrong, feels so right

I, been losing the fight with my ego

Girl to the right won’t let me go

Making it hard on a nigga

To look away and turn it down

And I've been drinking way too much (way too much)

To be thinking about love (to be thinking about love)

To be thinking about us (to be thinking about us)

So ima pour another cup

And I can’t leave this club alone (leave tha club alone)

So it ain't about trust

I got a reputation

Good or bad, so what, I gotta keep it up

I've been living my life in these clubs

I've been giving my life to these girls

The bright lights like drugs

The fast life don’t slow up

I know I know I know I know

I know, I know (I get it)

I know, I know, I know I know

I know, yeah, I know, yeah

There’s some things I can’t get back

It’s some things I can’t get back

I know, I know, I know, I know

There’s some things I can’t get back

I know, I know, I know, I know

There’s some things I can’t get back

If you’re looking for love, you won’t find it here

I’ve had my share of that life

But I never have time to give

Cause I always spread myself thin

I'm losing the fight with my ego

It’s like you won’t let me go

And you’re making it hard on a nigga

To look away and turn it down
