Energy

So quick to take my time

Now, I'm thinking maybe I'm part of

The problem

So used to saying, "No, that's fine"

Now, they think that I don't mind, even though

They take advantage of

Who wants to be an accessory??

When there's been no investment made

No problem ringing or texting me

Asking me to do shit

Would you do the same?

So keep that energy

All I'm asking is for you to keep that energy when you come to me

Keep that energy

All I'm asking is for you to keep that energy when you come to me

Some of them take and never give

Only concerned if they benefit

Always asking you to do it for the love

When you're in need, do they ever show up?

And just try to establish your worth

And see how quickly they seem to get hurt

They don't wanna see the potential in you

Till someone else recognizes your value

You accuse me of being bougie

Want the goods, but don't want to pay

Who protects my interests if not me?

Should I keep giving and just let you take?

Keep that energy

All I'm asking is for you to keep that energy when you come to me

Keep that energy

All I'm asking is for you to keep that energy when you come to me

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind helping folks from time to time

But time is money, so please, don't be wasting mine

Would it hurt to show a little reciprocity??

If you ain't feeling what I'm feeling, keep that energy

So keep that energy

All I'm asking is for you to keep that energy when you come to me

Keep that energy

All I'm asking is for you to keep that energy when you come to me
