CIVIL WAR Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, man this shit is stupid
Yeah, come on

[Chorus]
Call my phone (Yeah)
I don't wanna text you anymore
I just wanna stop this civil war
Baby, please (Please)
Call my phone
I don't wanna text you anymore
I just wanna stop this civil war
Baby, please (Please)

[Verse 1]
Yeah, he don't wanna call it quits
She don't wanna call it quits
Even though they both been screamin'
Both got reasons, yeah-yeah
Never turn your back on love
Been with you from the jump
Even though they both been screamin'
Both got reasons, yeah-yeah
Every night, it's the same old thing
Fuck and fight, it's the same old thing
Wake up, make up, repeat
Both of them say, "Put the blame on me"
He be actin' so prideful, stop
She be actin' so prideful, stop
Wake up, make up, repeat
Both of them say, "Put the blame on me"

[Chorus]
Call my phone (Yeah)
I don't wanna text you anymore
I just wanna stop this civil war
Baby, please (Please)
Call my phone
I don't wanna text you anymore
I just wanna stop this civil war
Baby, please (Please)

[Verse 2]
Yeah, they've been sparrin', seein' which one's gonna drop first
Doesn't matter 'cause they both got hurt, clockwork
How they all over each other's sixes?
No amount of blunts or Henny is gonna fix this
Get to the core of it, talk, start explorin' it
They so out of tune wit' each other, they ignorin' it
Actin' like the problems ain't there, stick around outta fear
Of startin' over wit' someone and wastin' another year

[Chorus]
Call my phone (Yeah)
I don't wanna text you anymore
I just wanna stop this civil war
Baby, please (Please)
Call my phone
I don't wanna text you anymore
I just wanna stop this civil war
Baby, please (Please)

[Outro]
And they try, they stuck through it, they cut through it
If that ain't work, they fuck through it
If that ain't work, they fuck through it
If that ain't work, they fuck through it
