Konvict
Oh, oh-whoa-oh-oh
Oh, oh-whoa-oh-oh

Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter no
(‘Cause I got you babe)
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter no
(‘Cause I got you babe)
Cause we gon’ fight
Oh yes we gon’ fight
Believe we gon’ fight
Fight for our right to love yeah
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter no
(‘Cause I got you babe)

Nobody wanna see us together
Nobody thought we’d last forever
I feel I’m hoping and praying
Things between us gon’ get better
Men steady coming after you
Women steady coming after me
Seems like everybody wanna go for self
And don’t wanna respect boundaries
Telling you all those lies
Just to get on your side
But I must admit there was a couple secrets I held inside
Just know that I try
To always apologize
I’ma have you first always in my heart to keep you satisfied

Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
(‘Cause I got you babe)
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
(‘Cause I got you babe)
Cause we gon’ fight
Oh yes we gon’ fight
Believe we gon’ fight
Fight for our right to love, yeah
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
(‘Cause I got you babe)

Got every right to wanna leave
Got every right to wanna go
Got every right to hit the road
And never talk to me no more
You don’t ever have to call
Even check for me at all
Cause the way I’ve been acting lately has been off the wall
Especially towards you
Putting girls before you
And they watching everything I been dong just to hurt you
Most of it just ain’t true
And they won’t show you
How much of a queen you are to me and why I love you, baby

Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
(‘Cause I got you, babe)
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
(‘Cause I got you babe)
Cause we gon’ fight
Oh yes we gon’ fight
Believe we gon’ fight
Fight for our right to love, yeah
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter no
(‘Cause I got you babe)

Oh, oh-whoa-oh-oh
Cause I got you babe
Oh, oh-whoa-oh-oh
Cause I got you babe
Cause I got you babe
Cause I got you babe

Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
(‘Cause I got you, babe)
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
(‘Cause I got you, babe)
Cause we gon’ fight
Oh yes we gon’ fight
Believe we gon’ fight
Fight for our right to love, yeah
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
(‘Cause I got you, babe)

Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
(‘Cause I got you, babe)
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
(‘Cause I got you, babe)
Cause we gon’ fight
Oh yes we gon’ fight
Believe we gon’ fight
Fight for our right to love, yeah
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don’t matter, no
‘Cause I got you, babe
‘Cause I got you, babe
