Chorus:
F#             D#m
I found a new muse
                     Fm
That's bad news for you
Why would I keep you around?
             A#m
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep you around?
             F#
Why would I keep?
              D#m
I found a new muse
                     Fm
That's bad news for you
Why would I keep you around?
             A#m
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep you around?
             F#
Why would I keep?

Yeah, woah, yeah
              D#m
And I wrote, licks I hit on my ones when
                  Fm
I didn't have no friends to ride
                                     A#m
Sticks on my dawgs, and I can't even lie to you
Got too much pride for you
            F#
Gotta stay safe in these streets
                    D#m
Streets don't play favorites, though
I'm not afraid of it though
        Fm
God is okay with me, so
Life of that shade that you throw
              A#m
I've seen you take it low
Limbo right under that ho
            F#
Fuck out my face

Chorus:
I found a new muse
That's bad news for you
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep?
I found a new muse
That's bad news for you
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep?

Once is a lot of things
Twice is a decision
Told me a lot of things
Forced into submission, got you Mercedes-Benz
But that don't make you driven
Then what can I do for you?
How can I make a difference?
Friendship and loyalty, that's not what it's giving
Given that, why would I keep you around?

Chorus:
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep you around?
Why would I keep?
Okay, okay
Okay, okay
