lyrics

Chorus 1
Boy, wake up!
Hear my song on your fav station
Now you’re gone
I’ll be brave and strong
So run to your
Brand new woman (x2)
Verse 1
I don’t owe you
a damn thing (x2)
Our love kept uncovering your demons
And I’m supposed to want
Love that makes me better
I can’t let it be
I need you to wake up!
Chorus 2
Boy, wake up!
Hear my song on your fav station
Now you’re gone
I’ll be brave and strong
So run to your
brand new woman (x2)
Boy, wake up!
Hear my song on your fav station
Won’t be long till I’m moving on
Hold on to your
Brand new woman (x2)
Verse 2
Ay go on running to your brand new...phase
Damn, I really hope she loves you
I ain’t hating I’m just speaking up the damn truth
All my friends say I was too invested for you
Damn! I was too woman you ain’t enough (man)
I saw it coming
you lost in us
I’mma choose myself in love
Baby I’m the best thing you ever lost
Said you needed me (boy you’re weak)

That I made you better (couldn’t see)
I can’t let you be (honestly)
Boy just wake the fuck up (i just need)
Chorus 3
Bridge
Boy you dumb, go ahead and run to your woman (x2)
Shit be rough
No it be tough
I be bruisin
Hit me up
Don’t hit me up
I be moving on
Write another dozen songs
And I’m betting that I’ll be gone
Before you hear this one ay
Boy you’re a recluse in the sun
I’m sorry if this bumps
Can’t be mad I dropped another one
Chorus 4
Ay I ain’t holding back none of this (x8)
