[Intro]
Once I left your crazy ass, I took a therapy session
I won't be richest with the wealth, I'll be the richest in blessings
I said
[Verse 1]
You made a bet today, said I can't leave my bed today
You tapped me on my chest today
Wanna rear your head on a better day
Black dog, black dog, you be barkin', barkin'
I always saw your ass as a hindrance
And you saw me as a target, but
[Chorus]
Wait, could this be true?
I don't need you
I don't need you
Ah, wait, wait, this is true
I don't like you
I don't like you
Ah
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't you see I'm rich?
Same tricks, how'd you do me like that?
Running off with my bag
Same tricks
You ain't shit, how'd you do me like that?
Running off with my bag
You ain't shit
[Chorus]
Wait, could this be true?
I don't need you
I don't need you
Ah, wait, could this be true?
I don't like you
I don't like you
Ah
[Verse 2]
I said, your ass is stinky
And you built like a mole
And I'll boot your ass to London if you can't take a stroll
I'll feel better (Better)
I'll be awesome (Awesome)
When you stop joggin' (Joggin')
On my dome, goddamn
[Chorus]
I said, wait
Could this be true?
I don't need you
I don't need you
Goddamn (Ah)
Wait, wait, this is true (Wait)
I don't like you
I don't like you
Ah
[Bridge]
Just wait in the hallway, babe
I don't like the smell of broke
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't you see I'm rich?
Same tricks, how'd you do me like that?
Running off with my bag
Same tricks
You ain't shit, how'd you do me like that?
Running off with my bag
You ain't shit
[Outro]
Ah, wait, could this be true?
I don't need you
I don't need you
Ah, wait, could this be true?
I don't like you
I don't like you
Ah
Could this be true?
I don't need you
Don't need you
Ah
Could this be true?
I don't like you
I don't like you
