Barricade |
She had bad luck when it came to relationships |
And this one was no different |
Broke up with her ex boyfriend the stakeouts were too consistent |
Was close but now they’re distant |
He thinks there’s someone else |
Because whenever he brings it up to her she brings up someone else |
Woah |
She’s still hurting |
Cos when they was together he hurt her |
A part of her still loves him |
He knows this cos he knows her |
Feeling confused |
To why she feels the way she feels towards the man she’s with |
When all he did was keep it real |
When her and her ex broke up |
She likes him but she ain’t in love |
He asked her if he’s worthy |
She told him lets not rush |
Used to tell everyone about him but nowadays she don’t bring him up |
Used to always stop at his but nowadays she makes excuses up |
And finds herself no longer wanting to sex |
He’s insecure, she gives him reassurance over text |
Cos when she calls he don’t accept |
She can’t help it |
The truth is she’s selfish and don’t wanna let him know that it’s over |
He told her she’ll lose him but she don’t wanna let him go |
Cos she knows she’s got a good man but she’s not in a good place |
One day her ex-boyfriend rung her in front of my man’s face |
And she never answered |
He asked why |
She phones back |
But it’s too late |
That was the last straw |
But he’s made up his mind |
He thinks they should go on a break |
Time has passed since they last spoke |
They pree each other to see if anyone else is involved |
Too much pride to pick up the phone |
She’s always on his mind but his mind’s made up |
She needs time but she know’s time’s up |
So they don’t think to try patch things up |
Well I guess that’s how things go |
Meanwhile her ex-boyfriend's been keeping himself busy |
In studio on a late night shift |
He took a break on relationships |
All of her friends know all of his songs |
That’s why they can’t escape from him |
Even though he’s the one who done wrong |
She feels it’s right to escape with him |
Cos they’ve got history |
Her friends prefer the man she was seeing |
But them two are history |
She knows what she wants |
He knows what she’s on |
They’ve been talking more and now they get on |
He knows my man’s gone |
So suggests that they catch up cos it’s been so long since they last met |
So they decide to link weekend |
And catch up in a bar in town |
The atmosphere’s kinda tense |
So he breaks the ice and gets in the rounds |
Conversation starts flowing |
She begins to let her guard down |
It feels so different this time than last time round |
So she gets in the last round |
Then they leave |
He’s wavey |
She’s wavey |
In a taxi |
To his house |
Going with the flow |
They know what’s going down but no-one's saying no |
Igniting the flames |
Now they link up every other day |
But she starts to get too attached |
So he plays the silent game |
She realises he ain’t changed |
She feels used |
He don’t want a girl |
She don’t understand |
She’s not in his world |
He’s got different plans |
She’s back here again |
Bottle in her hand |
Drunk and plays slow jams thinking where she went wrong |
Found out from her friend the other day the guy she was with has now moved on |
Weeks have passed and still she can’t take |
Her mind off all of the heart ache |
There’s no mending |
She’s back on the defensive |
Barricade up not feeling herself she’s been throwing up |
Scared cos deep down she knows she’s still growing up |
Woah |
Feeling so negative |
She takes a test and it says positive |
So I don’t blame her |
I don’t blame her, no |
DSAW |
We know what we want but you |
Won’t let go and I’m confused |
So please tell me so I can help you |
From putting up a barrier |
No, no |
Your friends don’t know me like you do |
Ignore them when they give you advice |
Because they don’t have a clue |
I understand you’ve got a barrier |
No, no no |
Cos when you let it down you always get let down |
I know |
There’s no need to have doubt cos Imma stick around |
I think that I should make you know |
But you can make up your mind |
Make up your mind (x6) |
But you can make up your mind |
Make up your mind (x6) |
So I don’t blame her |
I don’t blame her, no |
Cos when she lets it down she always gets let down |
Gets let down |
So I don’t blame her |
I don’t blame her, no |
Cos when she lets it down she always gets let down |
