Not Today

this is another one of those heartbreak hotel joints for the ladies

why wont u grow up & be a man someday
i cant believe that youre still playing silly games
now why do i put up w/ all this childs play
now if your word is all you have
then u aint worth a damn thing

[chorus:]
promises you told me every day
that you made you never ever kept
by me i really want to believe
but not today, not today, not today, not today

youre the worst
i cant even depend on u
u say a lot of good things
but something else u always do
be a man of your word
try to love something other than u
but now u can be on your way
cause i dont want you to stay

[eve:]
promises bout our house
bout the kids
lifestyle we would live
who the **** u really is
in my face
all the time
spittin line after line
broke down my wall and u got in my mind
yous a fake shoulda known
all the signs i was wrong
believed what i saw
and your cover was blown
breakup, leave
make up, please
yous a magician all them tricks up your sleeve
had me for a minute
i was in it
u played good
but imma get u
imma make moves
and imma leave you where u at dog, chill
go back to square one
wait for something real
selfish *****, could have helped you *****
usually know betta but i felt you *****
i guess getting in my head was a part of the plan
cause in reality the only thing you giving me is

[02:01.86]promises you told me every day
[02:06.03]that you made you never ever kept
[02:08.25]by me i really want to believe
[02:16.52]but not today, not today, not today, not today
[02:21.90]
dont let him waste your time girl
hes only telling lies girl
and when he apologizes (and he will)
dont be believing that man
cause he gon do it again

promises you told me every day
that you made you never ever kept
by me i really want to believe
but not today, not today, not today, not today
