Catch 22

(album: Two For One - 2019)

[Natalie Lauren:]
Tell me what you need
What you want from me?
What you want from me?

Would you love me if I don't?
Is you riding if you do?
It's the only way to win
I'm playing by your rules
Ain't no making you happy
That's the honest truth
Really hate to say this
But we gon' turn into
A catch 22
We can't win or lose, we just
It's a catch 22
Can't win or lose, we just
It's a catch 22

If you love it, then I like it
Know you tripping, I been popping lately
If you love it, then I like it
I don't hate, you know a nigga ain't faded
If you love it, then I like it
Know you tripping, I been popping lately
If you love it, then I like it
I don't hate, you know a nigga ain't faded
Nigga ain't faded, a nigga ain't faded
You know a nigga ain't faded
Nigga ain't faded, a nigga ain't faded
You know a nigga ain't faded

[Swoope:]
Yeah, you don't really want me to stay around (Nah)
But you gon' be mad if I leave though (Why?)
Say you wanna know what I'm thinking bout (What's up?)
But you gon' be mad if I speak though (Woah)
Gotta play the hand you was dealt now (Yeah)
So I understand if you can't deal (Woo)
You want my attention to put you at ease
But I'm really feeling like we at a standstill
I don't why or when, I don't know how to move
Don't know if I can win, so much I got to lose
You must be prosecute, so much you gotta prove
Left me with no choice but you still want me to choose deck
Oh, I get it, brain cosmetics
Mine's made up so you ain't gotta listen
It's your rules, I see you
You the old school Aliyah, woo

[Swoop & Natalie Lauren:]
Back, back, forth and forth, back, back, that's the door
The fact that I ain't backed back, yeah, that's the Lord
Yeah, let me know what you need though, I'm still for you
Yeah, let me know what you want though, I'm still for you

[Natalie Lauren:]
If you love it, then I like it
Know you tripping, I been popping lately
If you love it, then I like it
I don't hate, you know a nigga ain't faded
If you love it, then I like it
Know you tripping, I been popping lately
If you love it, then I like it
I don't hate, you know a nigga ain't faded
Nigga ain't faded, a nigga ain't faded
You know a nigga ain't faded
Nigga ain't faded, a nigga ain't faded
You know a nigga ain't faded

[Swoope:]
Oh, you mad, you mad, yes, I'm aware of that
But if you say you cool when I leave the room, don't text me a paragraph
Like, "I just think it's funny how," then
All the stuff you didn't say when
We was dangerously in love, now
You is sipping lemonade, then
You, high pitch with the vocal
Me, I whisper a low blow
You, eyes be on the wrong road
We, high speed on the low road
I wanna fight for you, I wanna try for you
I wonder why we think winning arguments is worth losing on all we meant
In the heat of the moment, while we become opponents
Why we play the blame game when we got the same name?
Same name, same name, same name, same name
And we want the same thing
You worth it, so I'ma go

[Swoop & Natalie Lauren:]
Back, back, forth and forth, back, back, that's the door
The fact that I ain't backed back, yeah, that's the Lord
Yeah, let me know what you need though, I'm still for you
Yeah, let me know what you want though, I'm still for you

[Natalie Lauren:]
If you love it, then I like it
Know you tripping, I been popping lately
If you love it, then I like it
I don't hate, you know a nigga ain't faded
If you love it, then I like it
Know you tripping, I been popping lately
If you love it, then I like it
I don't hate, you know a nigga ain't faded

Popping lately, baby
Nigga ain't faded, nigga ain't faded
Nigga ain't faded, nah, nigga ain't faded
No, nigga ain't faded
Would you love me if I don't?
Is you riding if you do?
It's the only way to win
I'm playing by your rules
Ain't no making you happy
That's the honest truth
Really hate to say this
But we gon' turn into
A catch 22
