Ref Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Maybe I
Got just a little too much pride
To let you back into my life
You think I miss you
Not yet, not yet
Maybe you
Thought about what you put me through
A sorry is long overdue
You want it again
I bet, I, I, I bet

[Pre-Chorus]
So cry, cry, baby, I already let you go
Bye bye, baby, I don't mess with you no mo'
Nah, nah, baby, just because I'm movin' on

[Chorus]
Don't you 'member back in the day
When all you had to do was
Say yes
But you walked away
You made your bed, you know the rest
Now you want me to say yes
I did you right, but you went and left
You think this is a game
You ain't gon' win 'cause I'm the ref

[Verse 2]
Did it all, all because of your ego
You thought that you was irreplaceable, yeah
There's a couple things you can't erase
You'll learn your place from your mistakes

[Pre-Chorus]
So cry, cry, baby, I already let you go (Already)
Bye bye, baby, I don't mess with you no mo'
Nah, nah, baby, just because I'm movin' on

[Chorus]
Don't you 'member back in the day
When all you had to do was
Say yes
But you walked away
You made your bed, you know the rest
Now you want me to say yes
I did you right, but you went and left (Oh)
You think this is a game (Ain't no game, no)
You ain't gon' win 'cause I'm the ref

[Bridge]
I bet you're thinkin' that I will take you back
Just like I did the last time, ain't havin' that
I won't be takin' you back, matter of fact (Oh)
You messed up the winnin' game
Ref, play it back
I bet (Oh)
Ooh (Baby)

[Chorus]
Don't you 'member back in the day
When all you had to do was
Say yes
But you walked away (Hey)
You made your bed, you know the rest
Now you want me to say yes (Yeah, yeah)
I did you right, but you went and left
You think this is a game (Oh yeah)
You ain't gon' win cause I'm the ref

[Outro]
Play it back
Won't you play it back?
Ref, play it back
Oh
