Don't Settle
DON'T SETTLE
INTRO
Wake up to an empty bed in the morning
Making up a different story when he walks in
Telling you his homeboy's car was stalling
But you know
That man is really out there bonin'
Even though his actions make you not trust him
You be sticking to him like yum bubble gum
While he's over there playing you like a drum
Pa rum pum pum pum
Pum pum pum pum
VERSE 1
You and I both know
That he hasn't been loyal
Matter of fact he's be hurtful
Blatantly disrespectful
You've been cool on the surface
Acting like you don't notice
That he's been so dishonest
But I know you've been a mess
Hey, hey
PRE-CHORUS
Coming home late night
Early morning
Messages and phone calls
He's ignoring
Girl you know
You gotta know
You really know
That he's no good
No good
For ya
He keeps on stringing you along
'Cause you keep on holding on
He doesn't value you
So it's time to move on
CHORUS
Don't settle
Don't settle
Move on
(3X)
Don't settle (3X)
Post-chorus
When he blames it on the liquor
Don't you even reconsider
Be like Skrrt
Boy bye
When he says that you can trust him
Just call his bluff
Be like Skrrt
Boy bye
When he she's just a friend
Take the Benz
And be like Skrrt
Boy bye
Now you know he won't stop
So block his shot
Be like Skrrt
Boy bye
(Boy bye)
VERSE 2
You have no proof
So you don't wanna accuse him
Making all these excuses
Girl, just chuck up the deuces
Say goodbye to hurt
And live the life you deserve
Please hear me, I must assert
That you need to know your worth
Hey, hey
PRE-CHORUS
Coming home late night
Early morning
Messages and phone calls
He's ignoring
Girl you know
You gotta know
You really know
That he's no good
No good
For ya
He keeps on stringing you along
'Cause you keep on holding on
He doesn't value you
So it's time to move on
CHORUS
BRIDGE 1
Here's what I would do if I was in your shoes
Make him pay for everything he put me through
Make an appointment with my lawyer to get her advice
You know that monthly alimony check would look real nice
Hit him wear it hurts
Yeah deep down in his pockets
Take all that he owns
Even the clothes in closet
So I could light em up
In his Mercedes Benz
If he started this affront
This is how it would end
Uh
CHORUS
BRIDGE 2
When he blames it on the liquor
Don't you even reconsider
Be like Skrrt
Boy bye
When he says that you can trust him
Just call his bluff
Be likeSkrrt
Boy bye
When he she's just a friend
Take the Benz
And be likeSkrrt
Boy bye
Now you know he won't stop
So block his shot
Be like Skrrt
Boy bye
CHORUS
