STRINGS

Didn’t ever want us to change
But how can I ever stay the same?
Million other people so don't call me up
‘less it's you begging me to get your stuff
With how you act it’s just fair game
Better remember my name yeah
Risked it all and lost my bets
That one’s on me
This is all we’ll get
And now it’s time for me to leave

Time to break out done messing around
Your strings can’t hold me down
Better luck now, shouting it loud
Give it up, give it up right now
(Hey) boy don’t you hear what I say
Not gonna play all your games (yeah)
Time to break out done messing around
You should know your strings can’t hold me down
Everything you did it was just for show
But I’m not your puppet that you control
Now that you’re gone, never hit a sour note
You reap what you sow
Risked it all and lost my bets
That one’s on me
This is all we’ll get
And now it’s time for me to leave
Gotta break out done messing around
Your strings can’t hold me down
Better luck now, shouting it loud
Give it up, give it up right now
(Hey) boy don’t you hear what I say
Not gonna play all your games (yeah)
Time to break out done messing around
You should know your strings can’t hold me down
It never had to be, this ain’t no prophecy
I’m through with you now, crave something new
I be feeling stronger, don’t need you any longer
Imma do it my way (off stage)
New era new age
Gotta break out done messing around
Your strings can’t hold me down
Better luck now, shouting it loud
Give it up, give it up right now
(Hey) boy don’t you hear what I say
Not gonna play all your games (yeah)
Time to break out done messing around
You should know your strings can’t hold me down
