Bryson Tiller & Sule Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't play with her don't be dishonest
Aye still not understanding this logic
Aye, I'm back and I'm better
I want you bad as ever
Don't let me just let up
I want to give you better
Baby it's whatever
Girl I'm that somebody
So I'm Next up
Be damned if I let him catch up
It's easy to see that you're fed up
I am on a whole ‘nother level
Girl he only fucked you over cause you let him
Fuck em girl I guess he didn't know any better
Girl that man didn't show any effort
Do all I can just to show you you're special
Certain it's your love that holds me together
Lately you say he been killing the vibe
Gotta be sick of this guy
Pull up, Skurt
Get in the ride
Left hand is steering the other is gripping your thigh
Light up a spliff and get high
Shawty you deserve what you been missing
Looking at you I'm thinking he must be tripping
Play this song for him tell him just listen
Don't
Girl, said he keeps on playing games and his loving ain't the same
I don't know what to say-ay but
What a shame
If you were mine you would not get the same
If you were mine you would top everything
Suicide in the drop switching lanes
And that thang so fire baby no propane
Got good pussy girl can I be framed
To keep it 100 girl I ain't no saint
But he the only reason that I'm feeling this way
Giving you the world baby when you get space
Pen game get me laid, baby that's penetrate
Oh baby
Don't
H-Town got a nigga so throwed
Po' up we can party some mo'
Yeah got this drink in my cup
Got a young nigga feeling so throwed
Spit fire and the world so cold
Young money got a nigga feeling old
Spit fire and the world so cold
H-Town got me feeling so throwed
H-Town got me feeling so throwd
H-Town got me feeling so throwed
Spit fire and the world so cold
H-Town got me feeling so throwed
Don't
In "Don't," Bryson Tiller and Sule team up to deliver a powerful message about a relationship that has gone sour. The song is filled with raw emotions and honest lyrics, capturing the frustration of a man who wants to be with someone real but is tired of the games that come with the dating scene. The opening lines, "Don't play with her, don't be dishonest," set the tone for the song, as Tiller implores his love interest to be real with him and not hide anything.
Throughout the song, Tiller talks about how he's "back and better" and wants to give her better. He's frustrated that she's been settling for less than what she deserves and wants to be the one to step up and be there for her. He acknowledges that she's been hurt before, but he's willing to do everything in his power to show her how special she is.
In the second verse, Sule chimes in with his own perspective, assuring her that if she were his, she would "not get the same." He's confident in his ability to provide her with what she needs and is willing to go above and beyond to prove it. The two artists come together for the chorus, repeating the title "Don't" as a reminder to their love interests to not settle for anything less than what they deserve.
