Temporary

[Verse 1]
Look
Oh, you 'bout to play with my feelings?
You was about that action, I figured
Oh, you thought you was lit—I'm lit-er
And my love gotta sign don't let her
How you going through my heart on the floor like a paper plate
I should've known [?] you don't shiver
Monkey see and monkey do the fake shit
But without a degree like gorilla
Let a Sim Simma like, "Who got the keys to my Beamer?"
Tyna plan out my afternoon
Counted all your kisses now your lips is like a plastic spoon
Begging to come up to your bed for clothes
You were in a love seat now we got the sofa
I was stuck bump-da-ba-bump with a bump
Makes sense that you couldn't even let me over I know
How you gonna treat me like eenie miney mo, I know
How you gonna treat me like eenie miney mo, I know
Look at all the team I provided though, I know
Knew that love was stained but I'm to typical, I know
Footprints on my heart, start over like wet cement, uh
I was tryna go with the flow and your ass tryna be the tourniquet, uh
Everything you ink you keep bottled in
So once you went in and got that Hennessy, you weren't permanent, I know

[Chorus]
Why do all of your hugs feel like paper plate
You tell me that you love me feel like plastic knife
Ya I should've known I would lose one without the confusion
Ya I would've did just fine, be bad
You love like it's Styrofoam
And ya I should've known, ya I should've known, ya I should've known
It was temporary, it was temporary
It was temporary, ya I should've known
It was temporary, it was temporary
It was temporary, ya I should've known

[Verse 2]
And for the simple fact I was thinking engagement
Overprotected on the phone for whatever like cases
I took a risk and cool how you won't even save it
Thought you wouldn't leave that front door once I gave you the bracelet, uh
Knocking on your door like I don't know nobody, uh
I was pissed, right outside your house like port-o-potty, uh
Feeling like Jerome when you can't call nobody, uh
You made me into something think you're origami
Tripping on this paper but I ain't a pencil pusher
Knocking on your front door, I ain't making Kool Aide baby
I just want your lips and I came to borrow some sugar
I should've never thought we could cause we were temporary

[Chorus]
Why do all of your hugs feel like paper plate
You tell me that you love me feel like plastic knife
Ya I should've known I would lose one without the confusion
Ya I would've did just fine, be bad
You love like it's Styrofoam
And ya I should've known, ya I should've known, ya I should've known
It was temporary, it was temporary
It was temporary, ya I should've known
It was temporary, it was temporary
It was temporary, ya I should've known

[Bridge]
I went outside, you brought out your permission slip
I thought the things between us would workout, I had a membership for real
I'm 'bout to keep a tally to the infinite
And I counted all your kisses on my fingertips

[Chorus]
Why do all of your hugs feel like paper plate
You tell me that you love me feel like plastic knife
Ya I should've known I would lose one without the confusion
Ya I would've did just fine, be bad
You love like it's Styrofoam
And ya I should've known, ya I should've known, ya I should've known
It was temporary, it was temporary
It was temporary, ya I should've known
It was temporary, it was temporary
It was temporary, ya I should've known

You was temporary, you was temporary
You was temporary, you was temporary
You was temporary, you was temporary
You was temporary, you was temporary
