This is another one of those Heartbreak Hotel jointsfor the ladies
Why won't u grow up & be a man someday I can't believe that you're still playing silly games Now why do I put up w/ all this child's play Now if your word is all you have Then u ain't worth a damn thing
Promises you told me every day That you made you never ever kept By me I really want to believe But not today, not today, not today, not today
You're the worst I can't even depend on u U say a lot of good things But something else u always do Be a man of your word Try to love something other than u But now u can be on your way Cause I don't want you to stay
Promises bout our house Bout the kids Lifestyle we would live Who the fuck you really is In my face all the time Spittin' line after line Broke down my wall and you got in my mind You's a fake shoulda known All the signs I was shown Believed what I saw And your cover was blown Breakup, leave Make up, please You's a magician all them tricks up your sleeve Had me for a minute I was in it U played good But I'mma get you Gotta get it I'mma make moves And I'mma leave you where you at dog, chill Go back to square one Wait for something real Selfish nigga Could have helped you nigga Usually know betta but I felt you nigga I guess getting in my head was a part of the plan Cause in reality the only thing you giving me is
Promises you told me every day That you made you never ever kept By me I really want to believe But not today, not today, not today, not today
Don't let him waste your time girl He's only telling lies girl And when he apologizes (and he will) Don't be believing that man 'Cause he gon' do it again
Promises you told me every day That you made you never ever kept By me I really want to believe But not today, not today, not today, not today
