Rather Be Single

Already been through the wringer
I been down that road
Had the pear shape on my finger
Well that ain’t there no more

So I been dating I been jaded
Tryna even the score
Dippin' it low like the matrix
Then I showed them the door

Tryna find the one but I been losing track
Too many men I been going mad
I ain’t gotta force it if it ain’t like that, yeah

Cause if I gotta give my heart to this guy and that guy
I don’t wanna play no part, I’m too tired, too tired
You know it takes a while to let down my guard
Cause every time I let it I fall so hard
Yeah, I fall so hard
If I gotta go this far then I
I’d rather be single
After everything that I’ve been through
I, I’d rather be single
Yeah I’d rather be, rather be single
I’d rather be single
After everything that I’ve been through
I, I’d rather be single
Yeah I’d rather be, rather be single

I remember this boy he was a gentleman
He would work me out like a regimen
I kept going back again and again
Then it got a bit too much

Pretty soon he became a crutch
Pretty soon he was acting up
He forgot how to show me love
He was playing me like Double Dutch

So now I go
N***** we ain’t got time for them
I hang up when I see his name calling
I’m a woman of high importance
So imma need no trouble, no torment

I admit I was giving you my deepest
Yeah I was new to it, boy that ain’t no secret
Yeah I got issues, boy I got some demons
Yeah imma miss you but I don’t need this

Cause if I gotta give my heart to this guy and that guy
I don’t wanna play no part, I’m too tired, too tired
You know it takes a while to let down my guard
Cause every time I let it I fall so hard
Yeah, I fall so hard
If I gotta go this far then I
I’d rather be single
After everything that I’ve been through
I, I’d rather be single
Yeah I’d rather be, rather be single
I’d rather be single
After everything that I’ve been through
I, I’d rather be single
Yeah I’d rather be, rather be single
