Don't Get Played - Amos Lee, STS, RJD2

Maybe it’s reason

Maybe it’s season

For falling in love

Maybe I’m dreamin'

But I still believe in

In falling in love

Now I’ve been doing some drinkin'

And doing some thinkin'

Of all the above

And maybe this time might be that time I don’t get played (No, no, no, no…)

And maybe this time might be that time I don’t get played (No, no, no, no…)

You scared, so you scared, shorty

Uh, Take off your cool, it’s a bare as you dare party

You know the rules, when you love and you care about somebody

Only a fool wants a life you can’t share with nobody

Uh, nigga take a bar and think about it

Uh, hit the bar and have a drink about it

Cause I’ve been here before

I opened up that door

And ain’t no turnin' back

When people get attached

Emotions get involved

Like rollercoasters, y’all

It’s all smiles and giggles

Until that first fall

And if we break up and don’t make up

Who gets the dog?

Am I moving too fast?

Hope I ain’t losing yo' ass

If I do than just ask, we slow it down, down

Just ask, we slow it down

I once had a lover

She dunce-capped a brother

Put me on time-out to ride out

With some other fucker

Well motherfuck her

I ain’t gon' cry about it

Although I did when it happened

I ain’t gon' lie about it

I know that pains' a part of life

You ain’t alive without it

And what don’t kill you make you stronger

I ain’t gon' die about it

Shit, get high about it

Get out and go for yours

Remember God closes windows to open doors

And them open sores

They heal with time

Nowadays, tattoo removal scars ain’t hard to find

To say that you forgive someone might the hardest line

To steal a heart, and breaking apart may be the hardest crime

It happened before, but never again, I’mma war with mine

At God with mine
