[Verse 1]
I'll never understand it
And I don’t think I'll ever comprehend it
Whenever it comes down to a man it
It always seems like playin' you is the plan
They work you up, hopin’ that he's the one
Then come to find out they got another one
And then they try to tell you they doin' this all for fun
The end of the day, they got you lookin' all dumb
[Chorus]
I'm not givin' up because I'm not a quitter
You gotta understand why I'm a little bitter
’Cause these niggas is out doin’ whatever
Sayin' anything to make ’em feel bigger
So out of my pride I'm stickin' to myself
'Cause I’ll be damned if this happens to me by somebody else
It's sad, damages have already been done
Just makin' it harder for the next one
[Verse 2]
I'm not the type that gives it to anybody
So if I chose you, you clearly were somebody
I let you win in my mind, heart and body
And now you actin' like you don't know nobody
Then you find the audacity to say
That everyone I care about, I seem to push away
When you're the type of guy that I gotta push away
You got me out lookin' all type of ways
[Chorus]
I'm not givin' up because I'm not a quitter
You gotta understand why I'm a little bitter
'Cause these niggas is out doin' whatever
Sayin' anything to make 'em feel bigger
So out of my pride I'm stickin' to myself
'Cause I'll be damned if this happens to me by somebody else
It's sad, damages have already been done
Just makin' it harder for the next one
[Verse 3/Bridge]
Now if a girl were to do what all the bros do
Work you up and then go and dispose you
Talk to you as if they not the one that chose you
Bet you'd say some shit like, "That's just what the hoes do"
I wish that I was jokin'
Tell you anything, just to get you open
Started out fixed, ended up broken
Ended up broken
Now if a girl were to do what all the bros do
Work you up and then go and dispose you
Got you feelin' ways you're not even supposed to
Bet you'd say some shit like, "That's just what the hoes do"
But it's the new way of our generation
Say you want relationships but only give relations
So when the next one comes around right we won't know
We're blinded by spite, no
[Chorus]
I'm not givin' up because I'm not a quitter
You gotta understand why I'm a little bitter
Niggas is out doin' whatever
Sayin' anything to make 'em feel bigger
Out of my pride I'm stickin' to myself
'Cause I'll be damned if this happens to me by somebody else
It's sad, damages have already been done
Just makin' it harder for the next one
