Shut Up
Black and Peace Lyrics

Shut up
Be quiet

Just shut up
Please stop talking

Shut up [3x]
I really need you to stop talking now

Shut it up, just shut up
Please stop talking and be quiet

We try to take it slow
We are attempting to move at a steady, measured pace

But we're still losin' control
Despite our efforts, we are unable to maintain stability

And we try to make it work
We are making an effort to resolve our issues

But it still ends up the worst
Unfortunately, things continue to get worse

And I'm craaazzzy
I feel like I'm losing my mind

For tryin to be your lady
Because I am trying to be your girlfriend/partner

Girl, me and you were just fine (you know)
We were doing well in our relationship until recently

We wine and dine
We enjoyed spending time together romantically

Did them things that couples do when in love (you know)
Engaged in activities commonly associated with loving relationships

Walks on the beach and stuff (you know)
We took leisurely walks on the beach and so on

Things that lovers say and do
Behaving in a manner typical of those in love

I love you boo, I love you too
We expressed our love for each other

I miss you a lot, I miss you even more
I have been missing you quite a bit lately

That's why I flew you out
I paid for you to join me on tour

But then something got out of hand
Unfortunately, a situation arose that I could not control

You start yellin when I'm with my friends
You became angry and started yelling at me when I was with my friends

Even though I had legitimate reasons (bull shit)
I had legitimate reasons for my actions, but you didn't believe me

You know I have to make them dividends (bull shit)
I have to make money for us, which sometimes requires me to be away

How could you trust our private lives girl
Why would you not trust me to keep our personal lives private?

That's why you don't believe my lies
You no longer believe what I say because I have lied to you in the past

And quit this lecture
Stop lecturing me about my actions

Why does he know she gotta move so fast
Why do you feel that things need to move quickly?

Love is progress if you could make it last
Love can be beneficial if sustained

Why is it that you just lose control
Why do you always lose control of your emotions?

Every time you agree on takin it slow
Despite agreeing to take things slow, things still get out of hand

So why does it got to be so damn tough
Why is it so difficult?

Cause fools in lust could never get enough of love
They keep wanting more despite the complications

Showin him the love that you be givin
Showing him the love you have to give

Changing up your livin
Changing your lifestyle

For a lovin transistion
To transition into a loving relationship

Girl lip so much she tryin to get you to listen
She talks so much, trying to get you to pay attention

Few mad at each other has become our tradition
Anger and arguing have become a regular part of our relationship

You yell, I yell, everybody yells
We all raise our voices in anger

Got neighbors across the street sayin
Neighbors are starting to notice our fighting

â??Who the hell?!?â??
They are wondering who is causing the disturbance

Who the hell?
Who is making all the noise?

What the hell's going down?
What is happening between us?

Too much of the bickering
Too much arguing

Kill it with the sound and
End the fighting with music

Girl our love is dyin
Our love is fading

Why did you stop tryin
Why have you stopped making an effort?

I never been a quitah
I am not someone who gives up easily

But I do deserve betta
I deserve better treatment

Believe me I will do bad
I will act poorly if you continue to treat me poorly

Let's forget the past
We should put the past behind us

And let's start this new plan
Let's start fresh with a new approach

Why? 'cause it's the same old routine
Because our current approach is not working

And then next week I hear them scream
And then we will be fighting again

Girl I know you're tired of the things they say
I know you are tired of the things people say about us

You're damn right
You are absolutely correct

'cause I heard them lame dame excuses just yesterday
Because I heard those same lame excuses from you just yesterday

That was a different thing
That was a different situation

No it ain't
No, it was not a different situation

It was the same damn thing
It was the same issue as before

Same ass excuses
The same excuses as before

Boy you're usless
You are not helpful

Whhoooaaaa
Expression of frustration or disbelief

Stop the talking baby
Please, stop talking now

Or I start walking baby (x12)
If you don't stop talking, I will leave

Is that all there is (x12)
Is this all there is to our relationship?
