[Verse 1]
You think you're popping like an Eggo waffle
Bragging how your shit's straight, it's horizontal
Driving 'round that Audi like you own it like you bought it
But the truth is that you rented it from Enterprise exotic
Acting like you got zeros to the right
So why you eating at McDonald's every night?
And if it doesn't make dollars then it doesn't make sense
Not the common kind but the one that pays rent
And you're drowning and you're trying to stay afloat
You keep scanning the horizon, look for any kind of boat
[Pre-Chorus]
Said you're like a smoke show
Hype up that ego
See, I gotta let you know
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm leaving you on read
Not talking 'bout colors I'm talking that thread
Trust me that shit was seen
Not talking 'bout crime all my messages clean I got the last word and nothing was said
Hopefully that plays around in your head
See, I'm leaving you on read, yeah
Said, I'm leaving you on read
[Verse 2]
You think your fire like a bottle of Tabasco
That shit's expired, got no heat, complete fiasco
Sending me the pictures of your kitchen all in marble when the truth is it's an open house last Sunday Santa Barbara
When you drove up to visit your mom
'Cause you've been sleeping on her couch all along
And now you're wearing self pity like a torn party dress
Avoiding all the mirrors 'cause you know your life's a mess
And you're drowning, you're trying to stay afloat
You keep scanning the horizon, look for any kind of boat, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Said you're like a smoke show, uh
Hype up that ego
See, I've gotta let you know
[Chorus]
I'm leaving you on read
Not talking 'bout colors I'm talking that thread
Trust me that shit was seen
Not talking 'bout crime all my messages clean
I got the last word and nothing was said
Hopefully that plays around in your head
See, I'm leaving you on read, yeah
Said I'm leaving you on read
[Bridge]
Wrote you a novel without a pen
Have a response but it's in my head
You're just an ass not a thoroughbred
So I wrote you a novel without a pen
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm leaving you on read
Not talking 'bout colour I'm talking that thread
Trust me that shit was seen
Not talking 'bout crime all my messages clean
I got the last word and nothing was said
Hopefully that plays around in your head
See, I'm leaving you on read, yeah
Said I'm leaving you on read
[Outro]
Oh yeah
Said I'm leaving you on read, yeah
Said I'm leaving you on read
