Boy bye, that’s where I get screaming when your love done right
Hate, love, everybody know that’s a really thin line
No cry, I alreadt know when your ass been lying
No, nigga you don’t love me, sit down, sit down, sit down
No, nigga you don’t need me, just sit down, sit down, sit down
And watch me do that act
Now watch me do that act
Boy around the world,
Boy I never come back
It get lonely in the streets, lonely without me
It get lonely in the streets, lonely without me
And watch me do that act
All this same hurt you can never take back
Lonely without me, lonely without me
Lonely without me, lonely without me
Lonely without me, lonely without me
Drive by, that’s what you be doin tryian find out why
Shut down, I just wanted you to take care of me no
Somehow, I’ma roll up and watch my feelings run wild
Come down, everybody know that’s when you push it too far
No, nigga you don’t love me, sit down, sit down, sit down
No, nigga you don’t need me, just sit down, sit down, sit down
And watch me do that act
All this same hurt you can never take back
Now watch me do that act
Boy around the world,
Boy I never come back
It get lonely in the streets, lonely without me
It get lonely in the streets, lonely without me
And watch me do that act
All this same hurt you can never take back
All I ever wanted was you, you, you,
All I ever wanna do is love you long time
Why you wanna go and hurt me baby
You ain’t gonna never find a love like mine
I’ma be the one forever baby
So watch me do that act
All this same hurt you can never take back
Now watch me do that act
Boy around the world,
Boy I never come back
It get lonely in the streets, lonely without me
It get lonely in the streets, lonely without me
Watch me fall out baby, watch me fall out baby
Ziggy zag out baby, watch me fall out
Lonely without me, lonely without me
Lonely without me, lonely without me
Lonely without me, lonely without me
In Kalenna's song "Lonely", the lyrics talk about the struggles of a toxic relationship.
