Tell Me

(album: In Case We Never Speak Again - 2019)

Ohh (I mean I think you're cool and all, but)
Ohh (Right now, I don't think I'm ready for all of that)
Ohh (Like, I kinda need some time to myself)
G&B

Don't make the same mistakes, baby, quit playing games
Is it just a phase or it is the real thing?
'Cause you say that you're ready
Come and show me, baby (Yeah, look)

You the truth, I love the style
But just to be real, I see the hurt through all the disguise
These niggas ain't shit, huh, you made up your mind
You could do bad on your own, you really just wasting your time, look
Fuck all the games (Yeah), you just gon' focus on you (You just gon' focus on you)
"They never know what they got 'til it's gone," you learning that motto is true (Uh)
When you look back how you gave 'em your all, that shit just riding your mood
Thinking like, "They ain't deserve it (Nah), man, that shit wasn't even worth it (Nah)"
But look, baby, I feel the pain (I feel it), I been through shit on my own (I been through shit on my own)
I done been down on my love (You know), I had some do me wrong (I swear)
But you wouldn't appreciate all of this sun, you've never been placed in the storm (You never felt it)
And I think we better together (Yeah), they gon' be happy forever (And ever, I'm serious)

Don't make the same mistakes, baby, quit playing games
Is it just a phase or it is the real thing?
Talk to me, baby
'Cause I wanna know (Know), I wanna know (Know)
Is it real or for show? (Show) 'Cause it lies if for sure (For sure)
Ohh, tell me, baby
Tell me, baby, 'cause I wanna know, I wanna know
Is it real or for show? 'Cause it lies if for sure
Tell me, babe, tell me, babe, tell me, babe

Hol' up a second (Yeah)
Your ex, she stole your direction (Damn), and that got you overprotective, you oh, so selective
I can accept it (I swear), I ain't tryna slow your progression (Nah)
I'm tryna help get you over the stressing (Yeah), I'm tryna make sure you notice the blessin's (Yeah)
Damn, I see you winning (Winning, baby), bossing up, handling business (Business, baby)
Working out, reaping the benefits (Benefits, baby), last thing you need is a nigga, but I get the picture (Yeah)
'Cause even really when you don't show (Yeah), I know what you really want though (Ayy)
Laid up with a real nigga who gon' understand, who gon' make you smile
And have your face down with your ass up and your eyes rolling (Goddamn)
Got you thinking you been missing out to the good life, that shit mind blowing (Yeah)
Need it every night, I'm a busy man, but what we really want, we making time for it
And your ex looking like a damn fool, he done lost treasure when the shine glowing, goddamn

Don't make the same mistakes, baby, quit playing games
Is it just a phase or it is the real thing?
Talk to me, baby
'Cause I wanna know (Know), I wanna know (Know)
Is it real or for show? (Show) 'Cause it lies if for sure (For sure)
Ohh, tell me, baby
Tell me, baby, 'cause I wanna know, I wanna know
Is it real or for show? 'Cause it lies if for sure
Tell me, babe, tell me, babe, tell me, babe
