[Verse 1]:
Now it don’t matter what I do you got something to say
But when you’re doing wrong I’m supposed to look the other way
You see you got me messed up cause I don’t play them type of games
And if that’s what you’re on the best believe I’ll never stay
It’s time for you to change and adjust the way you’re thinking
You need to watch your mouth all these times you start drinking
You love getting loud thinking it’s gon' to be alright
While I’m just trying to chill tell me why you trying to fight
Man get up out my face I say it cause I mean it
You always let your insecurities come between us
But look at your demeanor you always think you’re right
But who in their right mind would take this type of stuff for life when you’re dead wrong
Narcissistic pessimistic unrealistic quick to judge the epitome of a foolish cynic
You need to understand that I’m just trying to live
But not with you so let that weigh upon up your conscience
[Chorus]:
Slow me down all you do is slow me down
Don’t want nobody like you don’t need nobody like you
You were supposed to hold me down but you don’t even know me now
Don’t want nobody like you don’t need nobody like you
Yeah you were supposed to hold me down but you don’t even know me now
Don’t want nobody like you don’t need nobody like you
And you were supposed to make me smile but you don’t even know me now
Don’t want nobody like you don’t need nobody like you
[Verse 2]:
It’s time for you to go get your things and leave
I’m tired of fighting over nonsense that you believe
‘Cause the things that you conceive is always so far from the truth
I felt compelled to have to write a verse to spit inside the booth it’s getting crazy
‘Member when we met I’m joking around like is you crazy
Now you really are my life with no shame trying to play me
I’m working on my dreams while you’re working on my nerves man
I’d be a fool if I don’t kick you to the curb
You got to go on mama never raised no fool
It’s been one too many times you made me lose my cool
Setting me off on some things that’s really getting you off
I need a real one not a fraud so I’m cutting you off
Think about it
The cars' mine house mine money mine
You a 10 but you ain’t leaving with a single dime
So you can miss me with that nonsense
I’m so tired of playing games let that weigh upon up your conscience
[Chorus]:
Slow me down all you do is slow me down
Don’t want nobody like you don’t need nobody like you
You were supposed to hold me down but you don’t even know me now
Don’t want nobody like you don’t need nobody like you
Yeah you were supposed to hold me down but you don’t even know me now
Don’t want nobody like you don’t need nobody like you
Yeah you were supposed to make me smile but you don’t even know me now
Don’t want nobody like you don’t need nobody like you
[Outro]:
You think you know the person that you’re with until they change
Then the love you got for them yeah that just starts to fade
The memories of good times start to go away
And then you reminisce about the times that you would say that you gon’ stay together
And maintain the family picture
But when the trust is gone then those feelings start to switch up
Next up lying and the games
Crying and the pain
And then you realize things will never be the same aye
