Be A Heartbreaker
Justin Guarini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ooo ooh ooh, oh baby
Hey lady, I know I should be the last one
Who's telling you how to run your life
But I'm feeling like my conscience won't let it go
Gotta make a down payment on my karma
'cause I know caused so much drama
And the dreams of love I stole
([Male spoken:] Girl, I'm not trying to do that to you)
So listen, baby ...
Be a heartbreaker everytime
'Til you find the one who does you right
Who'll be loving you, he'll treat you true
Not saying I hit it now we are through
Be a heartbreaker
Don't compromise
If he ain't about yours, you're wasting time
'cause a guy like him want a girl like you
So he can say I hit it
Now we are through
He's a player, can't you see
He keeps two or three girls on his team
It's his resume, his routine
So, babygirl, listen to me
Girl, you should be thinking 'bout his ways
'cause it's too late for him to change
Now when other guys come spinning game
Want you to know you're being played
([Male spoken:] Girl, I'm not trying to do that to you)
So listen, baby ...
Be a heartbreaker everytime
'Til you find the one who does you right ([Male spoken:] Uh huh)
Who'll be loving you, he'll treat you true
Not saying I hit it now we are through
Be a heartbreaker
Don't compromise (don't compromise)
If he ain't about yours, you're wasting time
'cause a guy like him want a girl like you
So he can say I hit it
Now we are through
I 'nt saying that you ain't up on game
I'm coming straight, I'm trying to make it plain
His nature is to do the things he'll do
He'll break your heart in two, yeah
He ain't cool for you
([Male spoken:] Girl, I'm not trying to do that to you)
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ay
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ay
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ay
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ay
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ay (I don't want to hurt you)
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ay
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ay
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ay
(Be a heartbreaker)
Be a heartbreaker everytime
'Til you find the one (Find the one) who does you right
Who'll be loving you, he'll treat you true
Not saying I hit it now we are through
Be a heartbreaker
Don't compromise (don't compromise)
If he ain't about yours, you're wasting time
'cause a guy like him want a girl like you
So he can say I hit it
Now we are through
(Oooh) Be a heartbreaker everytime
'Til you find the one who does you right (Find the one)
Who'll be loving you, he'll treat you true
Not saying I hit it now we are through
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ay
Not saying I hit it now we are through
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ay
[Fade out ...]
The song "Be A Heartbreaker" by Justin Guarini is a catchy R&B pop song with a powerful message for women. The song begins with a dialogue between a male and female, where the male expresses his concern for the girl and encourages her to break hearts until she finds the one who will love her and treat her right. He acknowledges his past mistakes and wants to make amends for his actions of causing too much drama and breaking hearts. The male urges the female not to compromise on what she wants in a relationship and not to waste time with a guy who is not genuinely interested in her. The song emphasizes the importance of self-worth and not settling for less than what one deserves in a romantic relationship.

Don't settle for just any guy - be picky and make sure he's the right one for you. If he's not treating you right, move on. Don't let him use you and then dump you like a player.
He's a player, can't you see
He keeps two or three girls on his team

This guy is a player and he's not going to change. Don't be fooled by his tricks - he's just using you. Be aware of his ways and don't fall for his game.
I 'nt saying that you ain't up on game
I'm coming straight, I'm trying to make it plain
His nature is to do the things he'll do
He'll break your heart in two, yeah
He ain't cool for you
I'm not saying that you don't know what's going on, but I want to be clear that this guy is no good for you. He's going to hurt you and you deserve better.
