Don't Say You Love Me
JL B. Hood Lyrics

Uh, who do I trust?
I am skeptical of everyone around me and unsure of who I can rely on.

Niggas vindictive and women are full of lust
Men are spiteful and women are driven by sexual desire.

I ain't got the time to be wasting
I don't have the luxury of wasting time on pointless things.

Get the fuck out my face with the flaky fakeness, don't front
I don't want to deal with insincere and deceitful people, so don't pretend to be something you're not.

Ain't no reason for you to be around me so what you want?
There is no valid reason for you to be in my presence, so I question your motives.

You waitin' for them to crown me so you can bring me down
You are hoping for my success so you can then undermine and sabotage me.

But I'm up on you niggas now you bout to be lookin' stuck
I have surpassed you all and now you will find yourselves trapped and unable to catch up.

Follow me into the slaughterhouse and watch a nigga get cut
Join me in the dangerous world I navigate and witness the consequences of painful experiences I endure.

I could be put away for the weaponry that I'm keepin' tucked
I could face legal consequences for the weapons I carry concealed.

My music is a drug, I make them feel like cluck
My music is addictive and I have the power to evoke intense emotions and reactions from my listeners.

It is a legal substance but there is not a sub-stitute
Although my music is legal, no other alternative can replicate its impact and effects.

In pursuit, salute the ones that love me I'm still
In my quest for success, I acknowledge and show respect to those who genuinely support and care for me.

Doing it major without a deal do some work
I am achieving significant success even without a record deal, but it requires a lot of hard work.

And believe in it ain't no problem making skrill
I have no issue making money from my endeavors and believe in the value of my work.

Especially when you grinding and you deliver skill
Especially when you work hard and consistently showcase your talent.

Fully wit me, just want you to keep it real
Those who are truly with me should be honest and genuine in their interactions with me.

Don't say you love me
Don't falsely claim to love me.

And turn around and talk behind my back
And then proceed to gossip and speak negatively about me when I'm not present.

Hating on me when I'm not in the vicinity
Showing hatred and envy towards me when I am not around.

Like I'm an enemy, why you wanna do me like that?
Treating me as though I am an enemy, why do you want to treat me poorly?

But try to play me like a fool, not cool
But attempting to deceive or manipulate me, which is not acceptable.

Anybody can put up a front
Anyone can pretend to be something they're not.

People can do what they want to
People have the freedom to behave however they choose.

But really if you ain't being true
However, if you are not being authentic or genuine.

Don't say you love me
Don't claim to love me.

When really I know that you want my paper
When in reality, I am aware that you are only interested in my money.

You see the ambition, and you envisionin' me a savior
You notice my drive and view me as someone who will rescue or provide for you.

Like sitting on the bench and you never have been a player
Like someone who has never actively participated, yet expects to benefit from the results.

But want a championship, shit, you is a trader
However, you desire the rewards and glory without putting in the necessary effort, making you disloyal and opportunistic.

I just peep em out and I blow my smoke in the air
I observe and identify these individuals, then dismiss them with a nonchalant attitude.

You ain't bout the love I can see through your jealous nature
Your actions indicate that you are not motivated by love, but rather by envy and insecurity.
