Yeah
Ayy, ayy
Lay it on me, pride is flowin'
How will I know if you don't talk to me
Lay it on me, pride is flowin'
How will I know if you don't talk to me
Unnecessary quarrels
My love, I'm here to give you the world
Lately we feel apart, crossing lines, arguing in public
You was getting loud, I tried to alter the subject
Strong woman proud, lioness with a growl
Silence wasn't ya style, say I don't make you smile
I'm preoccupied with work, eyes on the search for perfection
Don't recognize your hurt, want protection
And trust, laying in my room, found my phone, found lust
That was tough, had a rough patch, seen me spill my guts
I get punked if my comrades
Ever saw me once cuddled up, in your arms sad
Frustrated, numb, hard to speak how I feel
Hurt people hurt people, so I gotta shield
So talk like I like it (I)
No Miss Cleo I'm no psychic, bitch (lately we fall apart)
Lay it on me, pride is flowin'
How will I know if you don't talk to me
Lay it (lay it) on me (on me), pride is flowin' (oh)
How will I know if you don't talk to me
Uh (OG), where that familiar feeling? Why this love so fickle?
Why over-complicate the issue? We're better together
I'm dancin' on the blade, walkin' on eggshells
Stressin' over my baby, I was thinkin' we can't fail
Plenty of fish, pull up my anchor and set sail
Chances of meetin' again, slimmer than slim, uh
I recollect on times previous past
We was happily ever after, champagne in the glass
Now it's Shady in the forecast fierce
Purple haze me, I'm a savage, how my vest get pierced? (How?)
Know what it is? You made it perfectly clear
I hope you see me every time your ass look in the mirror, hmm (ayy)
Lay it on me, pride is flowin'
How will I know if you don't talk to me (lately we fell apart)
Lay it (lay it) on me (on me), pride is flowin' (oh)
How will I know if you don't talk to me
Oh-oh-oh
Don't push me away
