[English]

Your name is on repeat, boy

(Malu, Fliptones)

Your intentions treated me wrong, your conditions

I already know your love is addictive, compulsive

Why you gotta go make things so complicated?

But you're telling me, telling me lies

Telling me that you were mine

But you lied (and still)

Here in my mind, it’s you

Your name is on repeat, boy

Your memories don’t fade, boy

I can’t stop thinking ’bout you

And here’s the situation

Lost in your translation

I can’t stop thinking ’bout you

And I know, and I know, and I know this is crazy

And I know, and I know, and I know that you played me

And I know that I can’t go back

Here in my mind, it’s you

(Malu)

Ayy, I ain’t got the time for all that small talk (talk)

Player, you’re wasting my time

So get back in line and go take a long walk (walk)

I bet you got my song on re-re-re-re-repeat (repeat)

I see you blowin’ up my phone all-all-all-all-all day (all day, yeah)

If you tell me you’re leaving, then go

Your bags will be waiting for you at the door

Damn, it’s a shame that you couldn’t get past (uh)

That’s what you get when you mess up what you asked for

I got money on my mind, I be winning all the time (winning, winning)

I’ll be leaving you behind, so

Why you gotta go make things so complicated?

But you’re telling me, telling me lies

Telling me that you were mine

But you lied (and still)

Here in my mind, it’s you

Your name is on repeat, boy

Your memories don’t fade, boy

I can’t stop thinking ’bout you

And here’s the situation

Lost in your translation

I can’t stop thinking ’bout you

And I know, and I know, and I know this is crazy

And I know, and I know, and I know that you played me

And I know that I can’t go back

Here in my mind, it’s you

My lawyer said that you should stay out of my business

You messed this up, boy, my girls, they gon’ be my witness

And all these suckers, they’ll be asking for a repeat

I’m okay, okay, oh-ay

Here in my mind, it’s you

Your name is on repeat, boy

Your memories don’t fade, boy

I can’t stop thinking ’bout you

And here’s the situation

Lost in your translation

Here in my mind, it’s you

Your name is on repeat, boy

Your memories don’t fade, boy

I can’t stop thinking ’bout you

And here’s the situation

Lost in your translation

I can’t stop thinking ’bout you

And I know, and I know, and I know this is crazy

And I know, and I know, and I know that you played me
