[Intro]
Said I'm tired of the same old thing
I need something new
Something, something other than you
[Verse 1]
I'm tired of the usual, tired of the same
I know I can't love you, at least not in that way
'Cause baby I'm too used to you, too used to your face
Too used to your ways, too used to the games that you play
I've been trying, trying to fill this void (fill it)
It's something that's been missing that I've been trying to avoid (fill it)
I don't know what it is, but I know it's not you (you)
So boy don't feel bad about it, boy just be a man about it
[Chorus]
Said I need something different (I need it, I need)
Said I need something different (I need it, I need)
Said something's been missing, said I need something different
Said I need someone different (I need it)
Different from me
[Verse 2]
It became a pattern, falling for your type
Man you're so damn predictable, morning, noon, and night
See you can never fill this emptiness that I feel deep inside
Said I care but I don't care enough to keep you in my life
You're just a typical guy, you ain't nothing special
I want someone to make me feel a way I never felt before
I wanna feel that feeling that my heart has been craving for
You're just what I'm used to and I'm in need of something more
[Chorus]
Said I need something different (I need it, I need)
Said I need something different (I need it, I need)
Said something's been missing, said I need something different
Said I need someone different (I need it)
Different from me
[Verse 3]
I told you I had issues so you told me you would care for me
Told you that I had no one, you said that you'd be there for me
Told you I've been hurt so many times, you said you'd cry for me
And you said if I live for you, then you'll lay down and die for me
Damn the agony, I can't believe you lied to me
Just like the ones before you, it was nothing like you said it'd be
Man I need a new feel, damn I need a nigga that know how to keep it real
[Chorus]
Said I need something different (I need it, I need)
Show me something different (I need it, I need)
Something's been missing
I need something, something different from me (I need it)
Different from me
[Outro]
I need something, I need it
I need something, something different
Said I need something different
