"Switch Sider"

Mama said never love a nigga more than he love me
See my daddy said the same thing, and he an OG
Your love is all I can think of
I don’t want it, boy I need it now
My heart is telling me I’m crazy
Cause I shouldn’t be sticking around

Everybody know in the town
I’m the one that’s holding you down
You the one that’s hoeing around
Everybody know, everybody know in the town
But I’m the one that’s still here now
Still here
Still loving my baby like he ain’t did nuthin
But that’s still my baby, yeah he still the one

Oh baby, I’m the definition of a rider
That’s my baby
I ain’t gon’ leave ‘cause I ain’t a switch sider
No I ain’t, no I won’t
You make me want to leave you every day, but I don’t
I’m still riding
Cause I ain’t a switch sider
No, no I ain’t a switch sider
No, no I ain’t a switch sider

Mama said never love a nigga more than he love me
See my daddy said the same thing, and he an OG
We on a love rollercoaster
But I can’t help myself, I need it now, now
Does this have something to do with her?
Is she the reason that you’re not around?

Everybody know in the town
I’m the one that’s holding you down
You the one that’s hoeing around
Everybody know, everybody know in the town
But I’m the one that’s still here now
Still here
Still loving my baby like he ain’t did nuthin
But that’s still my baby, yeah he still the one

Oh baby, I’m the definition of a rider
That’s my baby
I ain’t gon’ leave ‘cause I ain’t a switch sider
No I ain’t, no I won’t
You make me want to leave you every day, but I don’t
I’m still riding
Cause I ain’t a switch sider
No, no I ain’t a switch sider
No, no I ain’t a switch sider

Mama said never love a nigga more than he love me
See my daddy said the same thing, and he an OG

Oh baby, I’m the definition of a rider
That’s my baby
I ain’t gon’ leave ‘cause I ain’t a switch sider
No I ain’t, no I won’t
You make me want to leave you every day, but I don’t
I’m still riding
Cause I ain’t a switch sider
No, no I ain’t a switch sider
No, no I ain’t a switch sider

It's like, every time I try and confess my love for you
It's just... Hello?
See this is what I'm talking about
You never ever listen to what I'm saying
I know you went out last night
And I know there's someone else
I might as well just...
My friends warned me about you, I mean
I should've listened

"She Don't"
(feat. Ty Dolla $ign)

[Ella Mai:]
Oh no she don’t, oh no she don’t, oh no she
Oh no she don’t, oh no she don’t, oh no she

Wondering what’s on your mind
Guess you like the simple type
I ain’t stupid, dumb, or blind
Won’t sleep in your bed of lies
Heard you met her in the club
Tryna tell me you were drunk
I can still smell her perfume
Nigga I don’t **** with you

I’ma drink up, I’ma smoke some’
Keep it moving, it was nice to know ya
Boy watch me leave
You ghost to me
Wish you good luck being lonely
I’ma push red every time you phone me
You bout to be
A memory

Bet she doesn’t touch like me
Sure as hell don’t **** like me
No comparison, no she don’t, she don’t
Ain’t gon’ whip it up like me
She ain’t got the recipe
No comparison, no she don’t, she don’t
Oh no she don’t, oh no she don’t, oh no she
Oh no she don’t, oh no she don’t, oh no she

[Ty Dolla $ign:]
You right
Nah she ain’t never gon’ be you, but girl it’s whatever
I done called you fifty 'leven times why you treat a nigga like I was never
Your man
I know I fucked up, I'm only human
And I ain’t beggin’ but I’m gon’ ask
For one more chance
Girl I think we should just

[Ella Mai:]
Drink up, I’ma smoke some’
Keep it moving, it was nice to know ya
Boy watch me leave
You ghost to me
Wish you good luck being lonely
I’ma push red every time you phone me
You bout to be
A memory

Bet she doesn’t touch like me
Sure as hell don’t **** like me
No comparison, no she don’t, she don’t
Ain’t gon’ whip it up like me
She ain’t got the recipe
No comparison, no she don’t, she don’t
Oh no she don’t, oh no she don’t, oh no she
Oh no she don’t, oh no she don’t, oh no she

I be up on it, you know she can’t keep up
You know you want this, so why you gon’ keep her
Don’t get the picture, I’ll write it out
Losin’ a real one that held you down
I put the boy on and now he feeling himself
No it ain’t nothing to put you back on the shelf
Too late for sorry so boy back down
I have my issues, but one less now
99 problems but a nigga ain’t one

Oh no she don’t, oh no she don’t, oh no she
Oh no she don’t, oh no she don’t, oh no she
Oh no she don’t
Oh no she don’t
Oh no she don’t
Oh no she don’t

Did you really think I wasn't gonna find out?
You must really think I'm stupid
Maybe it's time

"One Day"

I tried to move on
Forget you were so much
Look what you’ve done
Shame you’ve all screwed up
I tried to move on
Forget you were so much
Look what you’ve done
Shame you’ve all screwed up

Couldn't be more overdue
All the rumors seem to be so true
How could you ever
Look me right in the eye
And tell me all of your goddamn lies
Turn to despise

**** you, can’t be involved in all of this bull
Best believe I’m through
With you, with you, with you
**** you, it’s funny how you’re sorry
Cause boy, well me too
And no matter what you do
It’s done now, it’s done now

Boy time’s up
You never thought the day would come, huh?
Hey, don’t cry now
Should’ve been there when
I told you stop with the games
But you gon’ learn one day

Wonder if you know the deal
You’ll never meet another girl so real
You don’t know what you
Got until it’s gone
Plenty will tell you I’m the one
You’ll never find another
You’ll never do another

**** you, can’t be involved in all of this bull
Best believe I’m through
With you, with you, with you
**** you, it’s funny how you’re sorry
Cause boy, well me too
And no matter what you do
It’s done now, it’s done now

Boy time’s up
You never thought the day would come, huh?
Hey, don’t cry now
Should’ve been there when
I told you stop with the games
But you gon’ learn one day

Oh now you can do what you want, boy
No more answering to others
You can do what you want to
I know I’ll be good, yeah
It’s my time now
This love died out

Boy time’s up
You never thought the day would come, huh?
Hey, don’t cry now
Should’ve been there when
I told you stop with the games
But you gon’ learn one day

Don't say sorry now, I mean
Don't even waste your time

- - - - - - - - - -

"Don't Want You"

What you talkin’ ‘bout you changed your mind?
Didn’t I treat you right?
Find your way to my heart now you putting on like you don’t
Want to be around, can’t spend much time
Boy you better recognize
Little money in your pocket, now you’re tricking
Talking to me like you’re winning

I was there when you needed me the most so I’m in my feelings
I’m ashamed of the way I felt and you know it’s killing my pride
Wasting my time, ain’t no surprise
Your last one that’s for real
I guess you learn and you live

Damn, just when I put you on
And I thought we’re getting stronger
Now your heart’s far from home
But it’s cool, I don’t want you no more
You messed up, boy you got that
I’m good, ain’t no comebacks
You did this, I’ma run that
I’m good
It’s cool, I don’t want you no more

Ain’t no reason I should compromise
I know too much to fall for your lies
What you take me for, ain’t nothing like them other bitches
Even though I’ve always sacrificed
I don’t mind moving on this time
Cause time is money and my interest ain’t on you so that’s the difference

I was there when you needed me the most so I’m in my feelings
I’m ashamed of the way I felt and you know it’s killing my pride
Wasting my time, ain’t no surprise
Your last one that’s for real
I guess you learn and you live

Damn, just when I put you on
And I thought we’re getting stronger
Now your heart’s far from home
But it’s cool, I don’t want you no more
You messed up, boy you got that
I’m good, ain’t no comebacks
You did this, I’ma run that
I’m good
It’s cool, I don’t want you no more

You ain’t thinking straight
You a fool, boy you lost one
Sing my love for you
You know what to do
I been all up in your face
Still can’t see I’m the right one
That’s too bad for you
Hurts but that’s the truth
I mean

Damn, just when I put you on
And I thought we’re getting stronger
Now your heart’s far from home
But it’s cool, I don’t want you no more
You messed up, boy you got that
I’m good, ain’t no comebacks
You did this, I’ma run that
I’m good
It’s cool, I don’t want you no more

Damn, just when I put you on
And I thought we’re getting stronger
Now your heart’s far from home
But it’s cool, I don’t want you no more
You messed up, boy you got that
I’m good, ain’t no comebacks
You did this, I’ma run that
I’m good
It’s cool, I don’t want you no more

"Old Dog, New Bitch"

I been thinking ‘bout telling him for a while now but what you think?
I think that’s a good idea, are you sure you want to do that?
I mean, to be honest, I don’t even - I don’t care. I don’t care about him
That’s true, but it’s whatever makes you happy
Hold on, hold on, hold on, he’s calling me. I’ma call you back, alright?
Alright

Hello?
Hey, what’s up? I just want to say I’m sorry

Hold up
I got a confession
While you was out doing her, I was out doing him
Had to teach you a lesson
Cause what I needed here was missing
Two can play the game, I ain’t tripping
Cause you thought that I was safe
Now your ass gon’ pay
Can’t teach an old dog new tricks
Ain’t gon’ be the one you screwing
You made your bed, boy you better lay in it
Cause I’m laying with another
Hope the next time you know better
Next time you know better
Next time you know better
Next time you know better

"A Thousand Times"

I gave you everything that every man says he wants
I cooked, I cleaned, I ironed your jeans, I was the one
I would listen to you when you sound stupid
Treat you like a winner even when you’re losing
Now you got me feeling like shooting Cupid
Cause you did me wrong

So when you come running back from the past you’ll be out of time
Because I’m done with your ass, you know that you is out of line
And if you ever move on to another one that you find
I hope you fall and you break your heart like you broke mine

Cause baby we’re over
A thousand times over
Ain’t no do-overs
It was nice to know you
But this love is over
A thousand times over
I hope the next girl you love ends up ******* you over
A thousand times over

I did say everything that every girl says she needs
I need your heart, I need your time, your loyalty
Can’t believe you caught me out here looking stupid
I’m the one that held you down when you was losing
Now you got me feeling like shooting Cupid
Cause you did me wrong

So when you come running back from the past you’ll be out of time
Because I’m done with your ass, you know that you is out of line
And if you ever move on to another one that you find
I hope you fall and you break your heart like you broke mine

Cause baby we’re over
A thousand times over
Ain’t no do-overs
It was nice to know you
But this love is over
A thousand times over
I hope the next girl you love ends up ******* you over
A thousand times over

Can’t believe you’ve done this when you know it’s all I wanted
Said I’m done, I’m done
Early in the morning, got me tossing and turning
Thought you was the one, the one
Even though, I been down since long ago
You been wrong, acting like you on the low
I can’t figure out what it is but I’m through
With you

Cause baby we’re over
A thousand times over
Ain’t no do-overs
It was nice to know you
But this love is over
A thousand times over
I hope the next girl you love ends up ******* you over
A thousand times over

"Down"

Tell me what you wanna feel
Is there something I can heal?
We can paint the perfect picture, picture
Make a story we can tell
Honestly ain't tryna push
I just know where to look
See you watching me watching you watch my body
Don't be scared to speak up

So deep in lust that we just might drown
Don't do it
Help me believe that it's love we found, stick to it
What's in the air got me up right now, zooming
I'm tryna show you but don't know how

If you show me you're down maybe I'll stick around
This could be something that's special for us
If you show me you're down maybe I'll stick around
This could be something that's special for us
Cause this could be forever after
I just want you to myself
Tryna be the one that matter
Follow me lets make it clear
If you show me you're down maybe I'll stick around

Wanna know if you're sure
Maybe I can be the cure
Got me caught up in my feelings, thinking
We should be a little more
Don't really know what you do to me
But take that next step boy it's cool with me
Cool with me

So deep in lust that we just might drown
Don't do it
Help me believe that it's love we found, stick to it
What's in the air got me up right now, zooming
I'm tryna show you but don't know, how

If you show me you're down maybe I'll stick around
This could be something that's special for us
If you show me you're down maybe I'll stick around
This could be something that's special for us
Cause this could be forever after
I just want you to myself
Tryna be the one that matter
Follow me lets make it clear
If you show me you're down maybe I'll stick around

I gave it to you no my heart ain't for sale
Cause I only see you don't want nobody else, oh nuh
I wanna be downnn, I wanna be downnn
And it's crazy just might love you more than myself
But be careful don't play it ain't good for my health, oh nuh
I wanna be downnn, I wanna be downnn
I wanna be downn

If you show me you're down maybe I'll stick around
This could be something that's special for us
If you show me you're down maybe I'll stick around
This could be something that's special for us
Cause this could be forever after
I just want you to myself
Tryna be the one that matter
Follow me lets make it clear
If you show me you're down maybe I'll stick around

Relationship? So now you want to use the 'R' word.
Well if that's the case then, come meet me for lunch tomorrow. One o'clock

"Who Knew"

We go back
We go forth
We go round and round
You be there
I be here
So I don't know how
Who knew?
That you ever will break through
Who knew?
Who knew?

Bout time for some real shit
Need to tell you how I'm feeling
Since you talking to the realest
I'm just trying to really stack millions
Like to do it
A little lovin' won't kill it
And oh wow
That I've been by myself
But oh now
Could be something to invest in
The dots connecting

We go back
We go forth
We go round and round
You be there
I be here
So I don't know how
Who knew?
That you ever will break through
Who knew?
Who knew?

I'm just trying to figure how you doing what you doing
How you turning to me only when I that I'm pursuing
All I'm trying to say is
Who knew?
That you ever will break through
Who knew?
Who knew?

Got me feeling like I'm spinning
Cause you're so appealing
We ain't gotta conceal this
Then you got me all up on the ceiling
We can seal it
Tell me where you wanna steer it
Cause I'm down
And if you wanna be
Around
Baby keep it in the moment
Ain't no telling where we going

We go back
We go forth
We go round and round
You be there
I be here
So I don't know how
Who knew?
That you ever will break through
Who knew
Who knew

I'm just trying to figure how you doing what you doing
How you turning to me only when I that I'm pursuing
All I'm trying to say is
Who knew
That you ever will break through
Who knew
Who knew

I'm just not sure of how you got me all in love
Boy you got my attention, don't you?
It don't matter
Cause with you I feel better
Crazy how you just burst right in
Yeah (don't break my heart)

I'm just trying to figure how you doing what you doing
How you turning to me only when I that I'm pursuing
All I'm trying to say is
Who knew
That you ever will break through
Who knew
Who knew

I'm just trying to figure how you doing what you doing
How you turning to me only when I that I'm pursuing
All I'm trying to say is
Who knew
That you ever will break through
Who knew
Who knew

I know I probably don't tell you enough, but, I really really care about you.
And I just want you to know, you got me one hundred

"10,000 Hours"

Since the day that I was born
I been looking out for love
But never really quite found the one
They say practice makes perfect
I know I deserve it
Sometimes you should do it for fun

Baby when I clock up I can't wait
Promise this time won't go to waste
For all we put up now I won't let your love down
I know we're not too far away, ay, ayyy

Why you always take so long to call me?
Know I gotta wake up in the morning
You know every second adds up to a minute
Need 10,000 hours
We can be so in love

Don't stop I'm counting them up
Round the clock I be counting them up
We can be so in love
You know every second adds up to a minute
Need 10,000 hours
We can be so in love

I've been right and I've been wrong
I've been high and I've been low
But this time I know it's for sure
Cause I'm right where I belong
Yeah we're only getting stronger
Feels good to be down in my soul

Baby when I clock up I can't wait
Promise this time won't go to waste
For all we put up now I won't let your love down
I know we're not too far away, ay, ayyy

Why you always take so long to call me?
Know I gotta wake up in the morning

Don't stop I'm counting them up
Round the clock I be counting them up
We can be so in love
You know every second adds up to a minute
Need 10,000 hours
We could be so in love

There's no time for us holding out
Cause this love is profound
Let the clock go round, let the clock go round
Love is best when built from the ground
To your heart I am bound
Let the clock go round, let the clock go round

Why you always take so long to call me?
Know I gotta wake up in the morning
You know every second, every second
Adds up to a minute, every minute
Need 10,000 hours
We could be so in love

Dont stop I'm counting them up
Round the clock I be counting them up
We can be so in love
You know every second adds up to a minute
Need 10,000 hours
We could be so in love

"Boo'd Up"

Feelings, so deep in my feelings
No, this ain't really like me
Can't control my anxiety
Feeling, like I'm touching the ceiling
When I'm with you I can't breathe
Boy you do something to me

Hear my heart go ba-dum, boo'd up
Biddy-da-dum, it just won't stop, it go

How many ways can I say that I need you, baby, it's true
I think I might die without you
Feeling all over my body
You know how I like it
Ain't gotta tell you what to do, yeah yeah

Ooh, now I'll never get over you until I find something new
That get me high like you do, yeah yeah
Ooh, now I'll never get over you until I find something new

I guess I should listen to my heart
Right?

"Breakfast In Bed"

Couldn't sleep last night
Waking up in cold sweats, reading your last line
Now it's six in the morning
And I'm staring at the side of the bed that you're not in
I wonder where you're waking
Wonder if you're all alone
Don't you wish you could just be right here
Waking up where you belong

Why you playin' hard to get?
Never had to wait this long before
Never been the type to fight for more
Waking up with no regrets
Isn't that what we do this for?
Isn't that what we do this for?

So let me take you to my room, I'll give you what you need
I just want to take you home with me
I just want to take this to another level
Get you high off my intensity

You home with me
I just want to give you that breakfast in bed
You home with me
I just want to give you that breakfast in bed
You home with me
I just want to give you that breakfast in bed
Take you home with me
I just want to get you home with me (breakfast in bed)
I just want to give you that, I just want to give you that

Why you makin' me beg?
You ain't gotta do me like that, boy it ain't fair
I been trying my hardest
Last week you was on it and you wouldn't stop calling
I know what you're thinking
Don't want to make it serious
But we don't need a title for what we got here
And the rest is up to us

Why you playin' hard to get?
Never had to wait this long before
Never been the type to fight for more
Waking up with no regrets
Isn't that what we do this for?
Isn't that what we do this for?

So let me take you to my room, I'll give you what you need
I just want to take you home with me
I just want to take this to another level
Get you high off my intensity
I just want to take you home with me
I just want to give you that breakfast in bed
You home with me
I just want to give you that breakfast in bed
You home with me
I just want to give you that breakfast in bed
You home with me
I just want to give you that breakfast in bed
Take you home with me
I just want to get you home with me (breakfast in bed)
I just want to give you that, I just want to give you that

On a silver platter when you wake up
High into my realm I wanna take ya
Got a lot of tricks, let me break you off
You know what time it is when I take it off
Boy you know I got a lot to offer, I ain't never gonna stop you when you wanna come get it
Just I know I keep it real tight so you can stay for the night wake up, breakfast in bed

So let me take you to my room, I'll give you what you need

I don't want to sound crazy but
I just wanted to make sure we were on the same page
If it's me it's, it's only me
You and me
Here

- - - - - - - - - -

"Nobody Else"

Got that exclusive for you
Ain't nothing conclusive 'round here
Cause you know I got you right where you need to be
Boy let me put it on you
It don't get no better, I promise
Let's cherish this moment, you have been chosen, **** what she wanted

You ain't allowed
To **** with nobody else
You ain't allowed
To **** with nobody else
Cause what we got right here ain't nobody gonna understand, no no
But you still ain't allowed
To **** with nobody else

Always loyal from the instant that you walked my way
Always down for whatever, I got you baby
I got you fiending for me
It's really appealing to me
Though that I reveal [?]
Cause you ain't allowed

You ain't allowed
To **** with nobody else
You ain't allowed
To **** with nobody else
Cause what we got right here ain't nobody gonna understand, no no
But you still ain't allowed
To **** with nobody else

Are you even listening?
I don't know about you but I really don't have time to waste
It's simple
It's my way or no way

"My Way"

I'm like a gun with no bullets
You could touch me, squeeze me, won't bust if you pull it
Take my number, you can have it
You could call me, text me, I'll look past it

If you don't know how to treat a woman
Close your eyes, ain't no point in looking
Over here with the weak shit
Get out of here with the weak shit
You won't get nowhere with that
I had your type before, no I don't want that back
Don't want that back
You talk fiction, I talk facts
Boy if you think I'ma fall more than once for that
You must be crazy, must be out of your mind, out of your mind
You must be drunk, you gotta be real high, real high
If you think I believe a word you say, word you say
You lookin' dumb, headed the wrong way, on a one way, baby

Only my way, my way, my way goes
Only my way, my way, my way goes
Only my way, my way, my way goes
Only my way, my way, my way goes

I'm like a blunt with no lighter
If we break up, don't roll up, 'cause we lost the fire
Once we lose it I can't fake it
If you need my love to live you probably won't make it

If you don't know how to treat a woman
Close your eyes, ain't no point in looking
Over here with the weak shit
Get out of here with the weak shit
You won't get nowhere with that
I had your type before, no I don't want that back
Don't want that back
You talk fiction, I talk facts
Boy if you think I'ma fall more than once for that
You must be crazy, must be out of your mind, out of your mind
You must be drunk, you gotta be real high, real high
If you think I believe a word you say, word you say
You lookin' dumb, headed the wrong way, on a one way, baby

Only my way, my way, my way goes
Only my way, my way, my way goes
Only my way, my way, my way goes
Only my way, my way, my way goes

As much as I try not to look back, I
I do sometimes wonder where we should've been
Where we could've been

"Makes Me Wonder"

Baby, I been thinkin' 'bout you all the time
Lately, I been wantin' you back in my life
I know, I know
Been a while since we felt the vibe
But I know I know, I know I know, I know what you like

Met you in the lobby, I was just arriving, you was checking out
Felt you staring at me and immediately I had no doubt
Missed your flight, we spent the week together but it's all over now
Cause we tried to keep it going when we got home but our heads were in the clouds

So I'm waiting for the sun to come up
Take me for a ride in your Beamer
Let's just roll the top down, ain't gon' stop 'til the stars are above
Wish that you would talk to me
'Cause I don't really know just what to think
Got me now, runnin' round, looking for your love
Kinda makes me wonder
Why you playin' with me?
Kinda makes me wonder
Do you think of me?
Kinda makes me wonder

It's raining
Thought we'd never drift but I can't lie
We faded
Grass ain't always greener on the other side
I know, I know
I know that the cold world passes by
But I know I know, I know I know, I know what you like

Met you in the lobby, I was just arriving, you was checking out
Felt you staring at me and immediately I had no doubt
Missed your flight, we spent the week together but it's all over now
Cause we tried to keep it going when we got home but our heads were in the clouds

So I'm waiting for the sun to come up
Take me for a ride in your Beamer
Let's just roll the top down, ain't gon' stop 'til the stars are above
Wish that you would talk to me
'Cause I don't really know just what to think
Got me now, runnin' round, looking for your love
Kinda makes me wonder
Why you playin' with me?
Kinda makes me wonder
Do you think of me?
Kinda makes me wonder
Why you playin' with me?
Kinda makes me wonder
Do you think of me?
It kinda makes me wonder

So I'm waiting for the sun to come up
Take me for a ride in your Beamer
Let's just roll the top down, ain't gon' stop 'til the stars are above
Wish that you would talk to me
'Cause I don't really know just what to think
Got me now, runnin' round, looking for your love
Kinda makes me wonder
Why you playin' with me?
Kinda makes me wonder
Do you think of me?
Kinda makes me wonder

I feel like I'm driving myself crazy continuously wondering about you
I have to remember that I come first
Ultimately this is my world and
I'm ready

"Sauce"

We ain't even been talking for a minute yet
And now I already got you elevated
You don't know if I'm a sin or a sinner yet
But you already singing hella praises

And you're by my side

Wit' you in my ride
So I'd rather let you know

Even though, I'm good without you, I'm ******* with you regardless
And if that's gon' hurt you, least you can say is I'm honest
Good things don't always get to you the way that you want it
I'm good without you but I'm ******* with you regardless

So tell me if it gets too much
Tell me if you bit too much
Boy, act right 'cause it's cool if
There's too much sauce in the food for you
Sorry that you can't keep up
You're looking like you bit too much
Boy, act right 'cause it's cool if
There's too much sauce in the food for you
Too much sauce
I got too much sauce, sauce

Known I still pull up when you need it
I gotta know you can deal with it (stop)
Readin' through the lines, boy, you're showin' (stop)
Playin' with your mind, 'bout to blow it
It takes a strong man, strong shoulders
You gotta level up if you want this (stop)
Chewing with you mouth wide open
Like you can't see

Even though, I'm good without you, I'm ******* with you regardless
And if that's gon' hurt you, least you can say is I'm honest
Good things don't always get to you the way that you want it
I'm good without you but I'm ******* with you regardless

So tell me if it gets too much
Tell me if you bit too much
Boy, act right 'cause it's cool if
There's too much sauce in the food for you (too. much)
Sorry that you can't keep up
You're looking like you bit too much
Boy, act right 'cause it's cool if
There's too much sauce in the food for you
Too much sauce

You don't know what to do with it

L
Lust
Four letters like love but less precious
More like electric veins running fast than frenzy my heart, make me crave and act reckless
So infectious

"Whatchamacallit"
(feat. Chris Brown)

I know you got a girlfriend, baby
You know that I got a man, ooh yeah
We could wait until we're single
But it won't be as fun then

It's somethin' 'bout being wrong that just feels so right
Think about it in the morning 'cause we be all night
And baby we could keep going 'cause you already know it
That you'd never stop the show until you see the lights

And the lights stayin' on right now
I can't even see what's going on right now
'Cause this Hennessy is so strong right now
I don't even care if I'm wrong right now, right now, right now

It ain't cheating, it's a whatchamacallit
This could be our little secret, our whatchamacallit

Girl, I know you got a man
He can't make you lose it like I can
I can tell that you've been working all night, all night
'Cause baby, what he don't know can't hurt him (white lies, white lies)

It's somethin' 'bout being wrong that just feels so right
Think about it in the morning 'cause we be all night
And baby we could keep going 'cause you already know it
That you'd never stop the show until you see the lights

And the lights stayin' on right now
I can't even see what's going on right now
'Cause this Hennessy is so strong right now
I don't even care if I'm wrong right now, right now, right now

It ain't cheating, girl, it's a whatchamacallit
This could be our little secret, our whatchamacallit

Hey
Girl, I need it
Boy, I need it
To get you all alone in my bed, my bed
Baby, don't tempt me
To see if I can love you, baby
Can't love me, can't be friends, yeah
I'm thinking we can do this forever, oh yeah
And let some bullshit creep in
You're my nigga, say **** him

It ain't cheating, girl, it's a whatchamacallit
This could be our little secret, it's a whatchamacallit
This could be our little secret, girl, it's a whatchamacallit
This could be our little secret, a whatchamacallit

"Cheap Shot"

You've been out here tryna work on me for a minute
Fall in love for a minute
You've been tryna see me through the problems
But everything you're sayin' is the problem
You keep tryna make me slow down for a minute
When I just wanna drown for a minute
You can take advantage
But you're taking chances
And I'm so glad you took it
So glad you took it

Cheap shot, coming when I wasn't looking for you
Shots in the dark, got me following your heart
Cheap shot, got me taking cheap shots
Why are you taking cheap shots?
Drinking, smoking, doses, potions
Got me doing things I ain't do
Got me doing things I ain't do, true
Drinking, smoking, doses, emotions
Somethin' 'bout the pain mixed with you
Got me doing things I ain't do, right

I've been over-thinking
Tryna make the wrong one right for no reason
I was cold for a minute
Blind to the feeling, but you did it, now we're in it and I'm so glad you took it (so glad)
So glad you took it (cheap shots)

Cheap shot, coming when I wasn't looking for you
Shots in the dark (shots in the dark), got me following your heart (following your heart, yeah)
Cheap shot, got me taking cheap shots (so cheap, yeah)
Why are you taking cheap shots?
Drinking, smoking, doses, potions
You know you got me doing things I ain't do
You know you got me doing things I ain't do, true
Drinking, smoking, doses, emotions
Somethin' 'bout the pain mixed with you
Got me doing things I ain't do, right, true

And it ain't really what it seems or what it seems or what it looks like (true)
And you can never call me yours but can call me when you feel like it
Drinking, smoking, doses, no emotions
Somethin' 'bout the pain mixed with you
Got me doing things I ain't do, right, true

It's so hard to admit all the changes
Stuck in the same system for ages
I'm just tryna take a hold of what's left of me, it can't get the best of me
It's amazing what a little lust can do
They're just pieces, but they devour you
I'm a monster just tryna vibe with you
So come over if you want but you can never call me yours when we're

Drinking, smoking, doses, no emotions
Somethin' 'bout the pain mixed with you
You know you got me doing things I ain't do
You know you got me doing things I ain't do, true
Drinking, smoking, doses, emotions
Somethin' 'bout the pain mixed with you
Got me doing things I ain't do, right, true

And it ain't really what it seems or what it seems or what it looks like (true)
And you can never call me yours but can call me when you feel like it
Drinking, smoking, doses, no emotions
Somethin' 'bout the pain mixed with you
Got me doing things I ain't do, right, true

True, got me doing things I ain't do, right, true
True, got me doing things I ain't do, right, true
Got me doing things I ain't do, right

"Shot Clock"

Twenty four seconds, yeah, you better not stop
You got twenty four seconds, can you beat the shot clock
What, you're waitin' or look, daddy, I ain't got that much time
You seem anxious, you seem adamant but you ain't press my line
Wondering why, why, why (oh why)

Better let go of your pride (do-do)

Full of chuckles and cuddles and sometimes, eye puddles
Compose love like we're Mozart

Right?

To be honest I thought you knew

"Run My Mouth"

Ooh, tell me what I could do
This ain't what it's supposed to be
I don't wanna drop it now
But you ain't up under me
And tell me what I could say
To make it feel right with you
'Cause you got a lot of love
And I got some things to do, and I'm...
I'm just a woman in love
Never thought it could feel like this
All I need is a late night call
Got me running right back, back, back, back
I don't wanna get over you
I just wanna, offer it now

All day (all day)
All night (and all night)
You got some nerve playin' with fire
You don't (you don't), realize (no)

All day (all day)
All night (and all night)
You got some nerve playin' with fire

"Gut Feeling"
(feat. H.E.R.)

[Ella Mai:]
Something in the walls, something in your wall looks different
Something deep inside got me wondering why I don't understand
Why I can't put my finger on what the **** is up, what's missing?
You distant, and I'm spinning

Don't ask questions usually
Got the answers that I need
Intuition telling me
Mmm

I just have a gut feeling
Don't know why I don't know
What is was, really
But the more we touch, the more it starts killing me
Killing me
Just have a gut feeling
Killing me

[H.E.R.:]
Uh, looking in your eyes, I been feeling like I'm crazy
'Cause I'm going through your phone, look for something wrong, I can't find nothing
I must be tripping tryna listen to my intuition, say you guilty
So baby, just tell me, I never asked before but right now I know what's going on

[Ella Mai & H.E.R.:]
Don't ask questions usually, oh
Got the answers that I need
Intuition telling me
Mmm

I just have a gut feeling
Don't know why I don't know
What is was, really
But the more we touch, the more it starts killing me
Killing me
Just have a gut feeling
Killing me

[Ella Mai:]
I'm the first to speak my mind if I feel a way
Not the type to be here crying in my pillowcase
Is it nothing? Or something?
Ooh, yeah

[Ella Mai & H.E.R.:]
I just have a gut feeling
Don't know why I don't know
What is was, really
But the more we touch, the more it starts killing me
Killing me
Just have a gut feeling, oh, oh
Killing me
Killing, killing me

Starts killing
Starts killing, oh, woah
I, I, I
Killing me
I, I, I
I, I, I, yeah
I, I, I
Killing, I, I, I

[Ella Mai:]
A, aware, I was guarded while my guardian angel never parted ways. Just stayed and layed with me. Not nakedly, just waiting patiently. For now, I am aware. And as I stare into your soul, I see it clear. Can we start again from here?

"Trip"

Ooh, yeah, yeah

I put my feelings on safety
So I don't go shootin' where your heart be
'Cause you take the bullet tryna save me
Then I'm left to deal with makin' you bleed

And that's a whole lotta love, ain't tryna waste it
Like we be runnin' a mile to never make it
That's just too bitter for worse, don't wanna taste it
That's just too bitter for worse, don't wanna face it

But I think that I'm done trippin', I'm trip-trippin'
I've been sippin', that's how I control
This feelin', you keep givin'
You keep on hittin' it, ooh, oh
Maybe it's your love, it's too good to be true
Baby boy, your love, got me trippin' on you
You know your love is big enough, make me trip up on you
Yeah, it's big enough, got me trippin' on you, trip-trippin' on you

My bad, my bad for, trippin' on you (Trippin' on you)
My bad, my bad for, trippin' on you (Trippin' on you)

Boy, you know we cool when I ain't waitin'
But I act a fool when I don't get it
And I'm steady bruisin' just to save this
But I tripped on your love, now I'm addicted

And that's a whole lotta love, ain't tryna waste it
Like we be runnin' a mile to never make it
That's just too bitter for worse, don't wanna taste it
That's just too bitter for worse, don't wanna face it

But I think that I'm done trippin', I'm trip-trippin'
I've been sippin', that's how I control
This feelin', you keep givin'

My bad, my bad, my bad for, trippin' on you (Trippin' on you, trippin' on you)

Trippin' on you, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah

"Close"

I don't know what's living in my body
'Cause I don't recognize a thing about it
That don't even matter, I'm just glad I got into the party
So I can feel your music in my body
'Cause you the only out of everybody
Who can deal with all my ways
I know I got some ways
But you control the flames
So I just wanna stay right here with you

It could be a room full of people, you still on my side
Look at how the whole world is searching, but I got mine
It's emotional, uncontrollable, all I think about is you
So if the tears wanna flood in my gates, let the water flow
Just let it fall out from my face
'Cause I never thought I'd ever hear me say
I just can't breathe without my baby
Ooh, you my baby

So come and kiss up on me
As we dance close
Come and kiss up on me slow
As we dance close

I don't even really care, I'm nosey
Just keep me there, keep me in the moment
Seen a lot of things, but I never seen my spirit glowing
The way you do me got me outta body
'Cause you the only out of everybody
Who gon' go out of the way to show me all the ways
Can't control the flame
I just wanna stay right here with you

It could be a room full of people, you still on my side
Look at how the whole world is searching, but I got mine
It's emotional, uncontrollable, all I think about is you
So if the tears wanna flood in my gates, let the water flow
Just let it fall out, out from my face
I never thought I'd ever hear me say
I just can't breathe without my baby
Ooh, come here, baby

So you can kiss up on me
As we dance close
Come and kiss up on me slow
As we dance close
So you can kiss up on me
As we dance close
Come and kiss up on me slow
As we dance

Just let it fall out, out from my face
I never thought I'd ever hear me say
I just can't breathe without my baby
Ooh, come here, baby

So you can kiss up on me
As we dance close
Come and kiss up on me slow
As we dance close
As we dance close
Come and kiss up on me slow
As we dance close

I, inner, I bring to you through words I sing. My flaws, my dreams, and all from within. I am Ella Mai

"Easy"

I'll fix the strings and play my part
I know the pain that's in your heart
I've tread the distance, near or far
Just wanna be right where you are

I know love has been a stranger to you
Maybe I'm the one to change it for you
Won't be easy 'cause lessons feel new
But the writing on the wall

Love is easy, easy
So don't you make it hard
Can't you see me, see me, see me?
Be easy with my heart
All we got is here and now
Why won't you let your guard down?
I'm just tryna show you how
Love is easy
So don't you make it hard

I'll chase the wind, I'll face your dark
I'll make a wish upon your star
Although you're afraid, I'll be your heart
Just let my hands reach your scars

I know love has been a stranger to you
Maybe I'm the one to change it for you
Won't be easy 'cause lessons feel new
But the writing on the wall

Love is easy, easy
So don't you make it hard
Can't you see me, see me, see me?
Be easy with my heart

Oh, take your time, no need for rushing things
Baby, don't you know that with me, you're safe?
The easy option is to run away, don't run away
To hide from love, oh baby, what would it change?
I been thinking 'bout some bitter days
Lots of pressure, all I'm tryna say is

Love is easy, easy, yeah, yeah
So don't you make it hard
Don't you make it, so don't you make it hard
Can't you see me, see me, see me?
Can't you see me?
Be easy with my heart, my heart, my heart, my heart
All we got is here and now
All we got is here and now
Why won't you let your guard down?
I'm just tryna show you how
Love is easy, so easy, so easy, yeah
So don't you make it hard
Oh, oh
