[Verse 1: Syd]
I've been wondering
Are we anything?
Or is it just out of my hands?
Out of my hands (Mm, ooh)
I can't ignore it (Ignore it)
Don't understand
Why you haven't told your friends
I wish you would call them
[Pre-Chorus: Syd & Choir]
Tell 'em everything about me
How you feel around me
How you feel about it
You can't live without it
Tell 'em what I'm doin' for you
Let 'em know that I adore you
Tell 'em, babe (Tell 'em, baby)
Tell 'em, babe (Tell 'em, babe)
[Chorus: Syd & Choir]
Go ahead and say it
Go ahead and say it out loud
I want you to tell me right now
Usually you're runnin' your mouth
Don't know what you're runnin'
Don't know what you're runnin' from now
I know where you'rе comin' from now
I just wanna hear it out loud (Say it out loud)
Go ahead and say it (Say it out loud)
Go ahead and say it out loud (Say it out loud)
I want you to tеll me right now
Usually you're runnin' your mouth (Say it out loud)
Don't know what you're runnin' from now
I know where you're comin' from now (Say it out loud)
I just wanna hear it out loud (Say it out loud)
Baby, go on and say it out loud
[Verse 2: Kehlani]
Speak up
Why all a sudden you're quiet?
Why suddenly you're shy?
Suddenly, you ain't mine
You've been mine for sometime
Makin' them sounds all night
Brought you way too high
You could never deny me to the ears of your neighbors
The eyes of the strangers, that watch us when we walk by
'Cause I've been loving you right
So what's with all the silence?
Baby, you don't gotta hide at all
[Pre-Chorus: Kehlani & Choir]
Tell 'em everything about me
How you feel around me (How you feel)
How you feel about it
You can't live without it
Tell 'em what I'm doin' for you
Let 'em know that I adore you (Tell 'em)
Tell 'em, babe (Tell 'em, baby)
Tell 'em, babe (Tell 'em, babe)
[Chorus: Syd, Kehlani & Choir]
Go ahead and say it (Say it)
Go ahead and say it out loud (Say it out loud)
I want you to tell me right now
Usually you're runnin' your mouth (Runnin' your mouth)
Don't know what you're runnin' (Don't know what you're runnin')
Don't know what you're runnin' from now (Runnin' from now, oh)
I know where you're comin' from now (I know where you're comin' from now)
I just wanna hear it out loud (I just wanna hear it out loud)
Go ahead and say it (Say it out loud)
Go ahead and say it out loud (Say it out loud)
I want you to tell me right now
Usually you're runnin' your mouth (Say it out loud)
Don't know what you're runnin' from now (Don't know what you're runnin' from)
I know where you're comin' from now (I know where you're comin' from now)
I just wanna hear it out loud (Say it out loud)
Baby, go on and say it out loud
