I Told You

(album: Everything Will Take Time - 2020)

Sometimes when you talk to me in person
I be trying to crack through your surface
I be trying to do what I can just to make it better
But it all seems to worsen
Can I point all the things that are workin'?
Love the fact that you're always determined
But people talk behind you're back when you're hurting
Let me tell you one thing 'bout opinions
That you don't really got to listen
You say that you're done with boy
You talk like you don't got any choice
But you do
It's been a real long time
You don't even call
I don't even know

How many times did I?
How many times did I warn you?
Don't you lie
How many times did I?
How many times I tried
How many times did I call you?
Just to warn you?
I'm not a saint
I already told you
My love

I told you once, baby
I told you once what I know
You got to let it go
I told you once, baby
I told you once what I know
You got to let it go

Straight like this
Played a lot of games but why'd you play like this?
Wonder how shit would be if I stayed like this?
There's no way I'll let you get away like this
I can't let it go or step away like this
Secrets that you told be kept away like this
Memories we got disintegrate like this
Stepped on the gas and sped away like this, no
Yeah
We fell away like this
Tell me who can take your breath away like this?
Tell me who can work around their way like this?
Trips that we took to celebrate like this?
Make that pussy throb penetrate like this?
Give your mom a text on holidays like this?
Or make your ass feel a type of way like this?

How many times did I warn you?
Don't you lie
How many times did I?
How many times I tried
How many times did I call you?
Just to warn you?
I'm not a saint
I already told you
My love

I told you once, baby
I told you once what I know
You got to let it go
I told you once, baby
I told you once what I know
You got to let it go

How long are you going to go and hide?
How long you going to keep me waiting outside?
I just want to come inside then come inside
I just want to do it right girl, do you right
I just bought the new Benz I'm outside
Heard you got a king bed, wow, how nice
I could go for good head right 'bout now
I know you been lonely too no down side
Come and see me girl I'm right outside
Come and see me girl when I'm in the southside
I just bought a new crib by the state side
Only gets bigger baby no down size
Come and see me girl I'm right outside
Come and see me girl when I'm in the southside
You know I be wilding when I'm in the southside
You know I be wilding whenever I'm outside
