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 gettin' loud, I tried to alter the subject
Strong woman proud, lioness with a growl
Silence wasn't your 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, layin' 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 Ms. Cleo, I'm no psychic, bitch (lately, we feel 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 overcomplicate the issue? We're better together
I'm dancin' on the blade, walkin' on egg shells
Stressin' over my baby, I was thinkin' we can't fail
Plenty of fish, pull up my anchor and set sail
Chances of meeting 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 feel 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
Baby, don't push me away
I'm here to stay
