Hello

Yo sis you know what's crazy

The realization maybe

The older we grow up

We act more like our mommas

Ain't we emotional too

We patient 'til we ain't

I'm yellin' at my boo like she'd do daddy

Hmph and he's no saint

It made me think about communication

What I need to change

'Cause throwin' **** and gettin' worked up huh

That is not my thing

I need some peace not codependency hm

I'm sure that's what you see

But tell me what you think

Girl yo give me some honesty

Hold me accountable for what I repeat

He laid wit' her

My dumb a*s let him come lay down wit' me

Like brothers in bed-stuy

Got a subway 'cross town

But comin' back to me

And I ain't into sharin' niggas

That ain't in my pedigree

Got me feelin' dumb-dumb

Askin' questions like that ain't G

Self-reflectin' what I lack

Why I let him come back

I know the answers

But I need perspective

Why you think I do that

What you think about that

**** I just called to chat

Am I afraid to be alone girl

If I told you no girl I'd be lyin'

I hear you but it's hard for me sometimes girl

Girl **** that that man ain't worth your time

Speak of the devil look

He callin' me right now girl

Not him callin' for the seventh time

Now he textin' sayin' I'm his only one girl

It's the audacity for me you know he lyin'

He lyin'

You know he lyin'

Sister sister

I don't know why you keep him in the picture

When he in the back of every other ***** flicks

Lookin' like Carmelo

It's gon' be a hell no for me

La la la la

I don't wanna hear no more excuses

It's toxic let's be honest

Why you wastin' energy bleachin' his Reeboks

If you gon' open the door when he knocks

Oh you just took him back

We shocked

Girl please

Girl please

You already got the answers you need

I know you lookin' for some reassurance

I done read this book so much

That I could preach a sermon

I know you gotta lot of love to give

But ask yourself does he deserve it

Just 'cause you can't fix a broken man

Don't mean you worthless

You wasn't born to be a shoe

And it's not your fault

If that boy wanna be a fool

I know you well

You can't get past me

You know what I'ma say when you ask me

Am I afraid to be alone girl

If I told you no girl I'd be lyin'

I'd be lyin'

I hear you but it's hard for me sometimes girl

Girl **** that

That man ain't worth your time

Speak of the devil look

He callin' me right now girl

Not him callin' for the seventh time

Now he textin' sayin' I'm his only one girl

It's the audacity for me

You know he lyin'

He lyin'

I know I know I know I know God

You know he lyin'

But I love him girl damn

But you right

Ooh

You read me

Yeah yeah

I hear you

You know he lyin'

I know niggas ain't ****

You love yeah

Men lie women lie

But men definitely lie

You

I'm not

I'm not gonna answer the phone

When he call back

You know he lyin'

I'm done wit' it

Girl he lyin' right to yo' face

Yup

What a disgrace

You know he lyin' you know he lyin'

He is lyin'

I hear you

Got his momma rollin' 'round in her grave

She know he lyin'
