[English]
Ooh, I got you on the edge of your seat
Ooh, love when you underestimate me
Oh, no shade, I just call it how I see
You keep talkin' but I don't hear a thing
And no, I don't take nothing back
I said what I said
You don't show it now I'm the one that's gon' be circlin' in your head
No, I don't need apologies
Don't need no revenge
You can keep on runnin' but in the end
You gon' be crawling back to me
You gon' be crawling back to me
You gon' be crawling back to me (yeah)
You gon' be crawling back to me
Don't be mistaken
Without you, I exceeded all expectations
I'm livin' the life you thought I never could
I, I'm ridin' high
If you only knew what I've been through
The things that were said
You would learn nothin' and nobody can get in my head
I don't get off what I told you so, don't need no revenge
You can try and run me down, but I'm two steps ahead
You gon' be crawling back to me
You gon' be crawling back to me
You gon' be crawling back to me (yeah)
You gon' be crawling back to me
You can try (try, try, try)
You can do what you wanna do
You can try (try)
But I'm four steps ahead of you, of you, ooh-ooh-ooh
Back to me, Back to me (hmm)
Back to me, Back to me (hmm)
Back to me, Back to me (you gon' be crawling back to me)
Back to me, back to me (crawling back to me)
