The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

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

Why won't u grow up & be a man someday

I can't believe that you're still playing silly games

Now why do I put up w/ all this child's play

Now if your word is all you have

Then u ain't 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

You're the worst

I can't 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 don't want you to stay

[Eve]

Promises bout our house

Bout the kids

Lifestyle we would live

Who the f**k u really is

In my face

All the time

Spittin' line after line

Broke down my wall and u got in my mind

You's a fake shoulda known

All the signs I was wrong

Believed what I saw

And your cover was blown

Breakup, leave

Make up, please

You's a magician all them tricks up your sleeve

Had me for a minute

I was in it

U played good

But I'mma get u

I'mma make moves

And I'mma leave you where u at dog, chill

Go back to square one

Wait for something real

Selfish nigga

Could have helped you nigga

Usually know betta but I felt you nigga

I guess getting in my head was a part of the plan

Cause in reality the only thing you giving me is

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

Don't let him waste your time girl

He's only telling lies girl

And when he apologizes (and he will)

Don't 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
