Player Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tinashe]
Live life like if I want, I do
If I want love, I get it (Get it, I get it)
Fooled me twice, if I fall for you
If I go there, forget it (Oh)

[Pre-Chorus: Tinashe]
So you better stay up, player
Yeah, you better keep up, player
'Cause tonight is a game changer
So you better stay up, player

[Verse 2: Tinashe]
Playin' with fire, if I burn, you do
If I hurt, you won't let it (You won't let it)
Stacked my deck like I ain't gon' lose
Like a victim, forget it

[Pre-Chorus: Tinashe]
So you better stay up, player
Yeah, you better keep up, player
'Cause tonight is a game changer
So you better stay up, up, player

[Chorus: Tinashe]
You and I make so much love
Why you got me all fucked up?
Yeah, you got me holdin' back, holdin' back
But it ain't enough
You and I make so much love
Why you got me all fucked up?
Yeah, you got me holdin' back, holdin' back
'Cause it ain't enough

[Verse 3: Chris Brown]
Alright, baby girl, I don't want them other bitches
You be talkin' that shit, callin' me a player (Oh, yeah)
Ain't no competition, fuck the opposition
I'm the man of my city, just like the mayor (Ooh, hm)
I met her in the hotel lobby
Then we started lovin' in the elevator
You know I had to eat that
Tongue on her body, see you later, alligator (Ooh)
Rollin' 'round in the bed, smackin' her on her ass
She a stone-cold killer, .45 in the bag (Yeah)
Mama told her never mess with a nigga like me
I took her to Fruit Town to meet my OG
I took her to the Westside, like, "What's up?"
When we was on the Eastside, we fucked
Now we sittin' court-side, P-dub
Put me in the bed, you ain't gotta worry 'bout it
Yeah, you better stay

[Pre-Chorus: Tinashe, Tinashe & Chris Brown, Chris Brown]
Yeah, you better stay up, player
Yeah, you better keep up (Up), player
'Cause tonight is a game changer
So you better stay up, up player (Up)

[Chorus: Tinashe & Chris Brown, Tinashe]
You and I make so much love
Why you got me all fucked up?
Yeah, you got me holdin' back, holdin' back
But it ain't enough
You and I make so much love
Why you got me all fucked up?
Yeah, you got me holdin' back, holdin' back
'Cause it ain't enough

[Post-Chorus: Tinashe, Tinashe & Chris Brown, Chris Brown]
You and I make so much love, player
(I don't wanna give up, uh, but you're makin' it rough, uh)
Yeah, you got me holdin' back, holdin' back
(You got me holdin' back, holdin' back) But it ain't enough (Yeah)
You and I make so much love, player
(I don't wanna give up, uh, but you're makin' it rough, uh)
Yeah, you got me holdin' back, holdin' back
'Cause it ain't enough

[Outro: Tinashe]
(Ain't enough) Player
(Ain't enough)
