Not
Today
Mary J. Blige feat. Eve
[Intro]
This another one of those proper hotel joints
For the ladies, uh uh
Why don't you grow up and be a man someday
I can't believe that you're still playing silly games
Now why do I put up with all this child's play
Now if you're word is all you have then you ain't worth a damn
1 - (Promises) You told me everyday
('Bout your name) You never ever cared
(Love me) I really want to believe
But not today, not today
You're the worst, I can't even depend on you
You say alot of good things but something else you always do
Be a man of your word, try to love something other than you
But now you can be on your way, cuz I don't want you (Promises)
[Eve]
Promises, bought a house, bought the kids
Lifestyle we would live, who the *** you really is
In my face all the time, spittin' line after line
Broke down my wall and you got in my mind
You's a fake, shoulda known all the signs I was shown
Believe what I saw, then your cover was blown
Break up, leave, make up, please
You's a magician, all them tricks up your sleeve
Had me for a minute I was in it, you play good
But I'm a bitch. you gotta get it, so I make moves
And I'mma leave you where you at dog, chill
Go back to square one, wait for something real
Selfish nigga, coulda helped you, nigga
Usually no better but I felt true, nigga
I guess getting into my head was a part of the plan
Cuz in reality, the only thing you givin' me is
Repeat 1
Repeat 1
Don't let him waste your time, girl
He's only telling lies, girl
When he apologizes
Don't you believe all that mess
Cuz he will do it again
Repeat 1
