INTRO
Givin' you all I got, now I don't mean squat
Treat me like a joke, and my heart be broken
VERSE 1
You won't pick up the phone
I know that you're at home
You really wanna play that game oh
You wanna be alone
Fine, be that way
I don't need your shit okay
VERSE 2
Don't do what you'll regret
I know you lost your head
Nobody said that love was easy
You wanna give it up
What? That's so lame
Wasted all my time oh babe
CHORUS 1
Hey, don't you walk away
Don't you walk away from me
Don't you walk away
Don't you walk away from me
Don't you walk away
Don't you walk away from me
Don't you walk away
Don't you walk away from me
VERSE 3
I can't keep telling you
(I'm oh so tired of talkin')
What I think you should do
We fightin' just to make it up again
This is my malady
I can't leave
And I don't wanna be
BRIDGE
Givin' you all I got, now I don't mean squat
Treat me like a joke, and my heart be broken
So all I gotta say is
RAP
When we first started kicking it, I thought the world of you
Showing up for me, I had no reason not to trust you
Vibes on ten was amazed how we blend
Nowadays I'm noticin' how you changed like a trend
I don't understand
Playing games, so I guess you want the upper hand
But what you won't do, I guarantee another can
That's a statement not a threat
When you fumble with the best, you gon' leave with regrets
I stayed and held you down when your pockets was low
You showed me your true colors when you made some dough
(money) I let you ride in my car 'round town like a star
Meeting honeys at the bar while I'm giving you my all?
OK
One day you gon' learn what you're missing
When you get lonely contact them other misses
I'll be on a new wave, new man, new phase
But while I'm here you gon' listen to what I gotta say
CHORUS 3
Hey, don't you walk away (don't you walk away)
Don't you walk away from me (I ain't done talkin' to you yet)
Don't you walk away (yo you better come back here)
Don't you walk away from me (I'm tellin' you)
(Woo ooh hoo!) Don't you walk away
Don't you walk away from me
(Hey!) Don't you walk away
Don't you walk away from me
OUTRO
Don't you walk, don't you walk, don't you walk away
Don't you walk, don't you walk, don't you walk away
'Cause I got something to say
(Don't you, don't you)
(You better think again)
