Lyrics

Tell me what you say now
Tell me what you say?
Come again?
If you cannot stay down
Then you do not have to pretend
Like there is no way out
I should have never let you in
'Cause you got me face down
And don't take this personal
But you're the worst
You know what you've done to me
And although it hurts, I know
I just can't keep runnin' away
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
But I want you
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
But I love you
Tell me what you say now
Tell me what you say
You said that you would come again
You said that we would remain friends, but
You know that I do not depend on nothing or no one
So why would you show up?
So uninvited, then
Just change my mind like that
Please don't take this personal
But you ain't shit
And you weren't special till I made you so
You better act like you know
That I've been through worse than you
I just can't keep running away
But I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
But I want you
But I want you
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
But I love you
Everybody's like, he's no item
Please don't like him
He don't wife 'em
He one nights 'em
I never listen, no
I should have figured though
All that shit you was spitting, so unoriginal
But it was you, so I was with it
And tell you the truth, wish we never did it
'Cause I usually do stick to the business
But you came out the blue, and then you just flipped it
God damn, baby, my mind's blown
Be forgetting you live in a different time zone
I think I know what this is
It's just the time's wrong
Yeah, I know what you did
But baby, I'm grown
And my love is patient and kind and shit
If this is real, we can build
Through different types of shit
If you was really the realest
Wouldn't be fightin' it
I think your pride is just
In the way
Funny how everything changed
Once you got all that you wanted
Nothing was ever the same
And though I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
I still want you
Oh
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
But I, but I love you
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
But I want you
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
I don't mean to
But I love you
