Let Go
Keyshia Cole Ft. Missy Elliott & Lil' Kim Lyrics

You need to get if he don't wanna
You should understand that if he doesn't want to be with you, he won't.

Love you the right way he ain't gonna
He won't treat you the way you deserve to be treated.

It ain't where he's at its where he
It's not about where he is physically, but where he sees himself emotionally.

Where he wanna be
He will pursue what he wants and where he wants to be.

(I don't want yo man)
I don't want your man.

'Cause I got it like that
I am confident and know my worth.

But it ain't even gotta be like that
But it doesn't have to be that way.

(Eh he he he he)
Background vocals

Yo man he be calling me back
Your man keeps calling me back.

'Cause see I'm fine and a matter of fact
Because I'm attractive and confident.

(Eh he he he he)
Background vocals

He asked how I do that that
He asked me how I look so good.

Fit my jeans over baby fat
I can still fit my jeans over the baby fat.

Listen
Listen up.

I don't know the type of tricks he playin
I don't know what games he's playing.

But I should warn you I don't want ya man
But I want to make it clear that I don't want your man.

I understand why you wanna try
I understand why you want to keep him.

Make him stay home late at night
You want him to stay at home with you at night.

But if wanna go he'll be gone no lie
But if he wants to leave, he will.

I can't explain how many times I tried
I can't count how many times I tried to make it work.

How many times I cried
I cried many times.

Thinking about mine and where he might be
Wondering where he was when he wasn't with me.

Remember when I gave everything I got
I gave my all to him.

Couldn't get deep down inside
I couldn't connect with him on a deeper level.

How ya love someone who didn't love me
How can you love someone who doesn't love you back?

But now I get if he don't wanna
Now I understand that if he doesn't want to be with me, he won't.

Love you the right way he ain't gonna
He won't treat me the way I deserve to be treated.

It ain't where he's at it's where he
It's not about his location, but where he sees himself emotionally.

Where he wanna be
He will pursue what he wants and where he wants to be.

If he ain't gonna love you
If he won't love you

The way he should
The way you deserve to be loved.

Then let it go
Then it's time to move on.

If he ain't gonna treat you
If he won't treat you

The way he should
The way you deserve to be treated.

When this song come on in the club
When this song plays in the club

They gon be like damn that's hot
People will find it impressive.

And when they play it in they car
And when they play it in their car

They gon drop they tops like damn that's hot
They will lower the top of their car in excitement.

They gon mix it wit Biggie 'It was all a dream' like damn that's hot
They will mix it with Biggie's song 'It was all a dream' because they complement each other.

Me and Keyshia won't stop
Keyshia and I won't give up.

Til the tick don't tock like damn that's hot
Until time stands still for us.

Now understand why I take my time
Now you can understand why I take my time.

'Cause you come wit alibis
Because you come with excuses.

Trying to get me to see that's where you trying to be
Trying to convince me that's where you belong.

But I don't want yo man
But I don't want your man.

Your man's been calling me
Your man has been calling me.

Trying to get me to see
Trying to convince me.

That he wants me to be wit him
That he wants to be with me.

But he ain't the one for me
But he is not the one for me.

And if you only knew
And if you only knew the truth.

You would
You would understand.

Do what you had to
Do what you need to do.

Finally see that
Finally understand.

Here's a little lesson Lil Kim don't stress 'em
Lil Kim's advice is to not stress over men.

Kick 'em all straight to the curb like Beckham
Move on from them and don't look back like David Beckham.

Broke up wit my Ex he wit her for now but
I broke up with my ex, and now he's with someone else temporarily.

Little do she know she just a rebound
She doesn't know she is a rebound.

Callin' my phone she so outta pocket
She is calling me and it's inappropriate.

I been there before old girl you need to stop it
I've been in her shoes, and she needs to stop it.

When he's wit you he's wishin' it was me
When he's with her, he's thinking of me.

You might be where he's at but I'm where he wanna be (baby baby)
He may be with her physically, but emotionally he wants to be with me.

If he ain't gonna love you
If he won't love you.

The way he should
The way you deserve to be loved.

Then let it go
Then it's time to move on.

If he ain't gonna treat you
If he won't treat you.

The way he should
The way you deserve to be treated.
