[Intro]
Thought I might love you again, I'll see how I feel
Now that you're acting like that, boy, I never will
Last night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal
Right now, I'm not even about you
[Chorus]
Thought I might love you again, see how I feel
Now that you're acting like that, I never will
Last night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal
Right now, I'm not even about you
[Verse 1]
The day I met you, boy, I thought it was a blessing
In the heat of it, I always took your side
It's a shame you out here tryna make it messy
Wow, you're messy, damn
We wеre good, I thought we made it through thе ending
I was hearing shit I never thought you'd say
Could have picked it up exactly where we left it
Took our future off your plate
[Pre-Chorus]
Let's go song for song, let's go back to back (Back to back)
Let's go tit for tat, boy, you asked for that (Asked for that)
That's the best you got, where's the good one at? (Good one at?)
I was never as far away as you thought
[Chorus]
Thought I might love you again, see how I feel
Now that you're acting like that, I never will
Last night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal
Right now, I'm not even about you
Thought I might love you again, see how I feel
Now that you're acting like that, I never will
Last night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal
Right now, I'm not even about you
[Verse 2]
I was nothing but respectful, and you know that (You know that)
Why you changing up the narrative to write?
No, I can't do this, you're making me do this
If you want to fight
[Pre-Chorus]
Let's go song for song, let's go back to back (Back to back)
Fix your fucking self, kiss my ass for that (Ass for that)
That's the best you got, where's the good one at? (Good one at?)
Should've known you'd be the type to change
[Chorus]
Thought I might love you again, see how I feel
Now that you're acting like that, I never will
Last night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal
Right now, I'm not even about you
Thought I might love you again, see how I feel
Now that you're acting like that, I never will
Last night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal
Right now, I'm not even about you
[Bridge]
That looks like it really hurts
That bruise on your ego
I know that it makes it worse
It had to be me, though
[Chorus]
Thought I might love you again, see how I feel
Now that you're acting like that, I never will
Last night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal
Right now, I'm—
Thought I might love you again, see how I feel
Now that you're acting like that, I never will
Last night, she answered my call, it sealed the deal
Right now, I'm partying without you
[Outro]
Thought I might love you again
Now that you're acting like that (I'm partying without you)
Last night, she answered my call
I'm partying without you
