This is another one of thoseHeartbreak Hotel jointsfor the ladiesWhy won't u grow up & be a man somedayI can't believe that you're still playing silly gamesNow why do I put up w/ all this child's playNow if your word is all you haveThen u ain't worth a damn thingPromises you told me every dayThat you made you never ever keptBy me I really want to believeBut not today, not today, not today, not todayYou're the worstI can't even depend on uU say a lot of good thingsBut something else u always doBe a man of your wordTry to love something other than uBut now u can be on your wayCause I don't want you to stayPromises bout our houseBout the kidsLifestyle we would liveWho the fuck you really isIn my face all the timeSpittin' line after lineBroke down my wall and you got in my mindYou's a fake shoulda knownAll the signs I was shownBelieved what I sawAnd your cover was blownBreakup, leaveMake up, pleaseYou's a magician all them tricks up your sleeveHad me for a minuteI was in itU played goodBut I'mma get youGotta get itI'mma make movesAnd I'mma leave you where you at dog, chillGo back to square oneWait for something realSelfish niggaCould have helped you niggaUsually know betta but I felt you niggaI guess getting in my head was a part of the planCause in reality the only thing you giving me isPromises you told me every dayThat you made you never ever keptBy me I really want to believeBut not today, not today, not today, not todayDon't let him waste your time girlHe's only telling lies girlAnd when he apologizes (and he will)Don't be believing that man'Cause he gon' do it againPromises you told me every dayThat you made you never ever keptBy me I really want to believeBut not today, not today, not today, not today
