Shawty says she need me, don't like how you treat me
But the way you hold me, yeah, you know you keep me
From jumpin' out the window (jumpin' out the window)
Jumpin' out the window (jumpin' out the window)
Shawty says she need me, don't like how you treat me
But the way you hold me, yeah, you know you keep me
From jumpin' out the window (jumpin' out the window)
Jumpin' out the window
Don't know what made me wanna pass you by
I know I fucked you over last two times
You told me that you wanna call it quits
I didn't even wanna ask you why
You know, the thing is I was way too high (thing is I was way too high)
I didn't know I'd pass you by (know I'd pass you by)
You told me that you want a good guy
Now that I'm ready, you don't have the time
You stay down and I know it
I won't play around, won't blow it
Just happened, I'm drivin'
You're ridin'
Shawty says she need me, don't like how you treat me
But the way you hold me, yeah, you know you keep me
From jumpin' out the window (jumpin' out the window)
Jumpin' out the window (jumpin' out the window)
Shawty says she need me, don't like how you treat me
But the way you hold me, yeah, you know you keep me
From jumpin' out the window (jumpin' out the window)
Jumpin' out the window
I wish I wouldn't never had to lie
I broke your heart just like a mastermind
I couldn't fix it in a hundred years
I could have gave up but I had to try
You say I really gotta
Wait to go, let you know
Make sure you save it for me
Shadows in the past, ain't no way I'm lookin' back
But I'm back now, baby, you can save your tears
You stay down and I know it
I won't play around, won't blow it
Just happened, I'm drivin'
You're ridin'
Shawty says she need me, don't like how you treat me
But the way you hold me, yeah, you know you keep me
From jumpin' out the window (jumpin' out the window)
Jumpin' out the window (jumpin' out the window)
Shawty says she need me, don't like how you treat me
But the way you hold me, yeah, you know you keep me
From jumpin' out the window (jumpin' out the window)
Jumpin' out the window
