M.O Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Intro)
Baby when you see me, oh I know you see me
You hope to see me
(Intro)
Baby when you see me, oh I know you see me
You hope to see me
I think you should know
I'm letting go

(Chorus)
I ain't got time to worry about people
That don't worry about me
I ain't got time to listen to people
That don't listen to me
I ain't got time to care about people
That don't care about me
So there's a reason why I can't
Now is it so hard to understand

(Verse)
Not one moment of that ain't got time
Know a view does what's on my mind
'Cause if I think about you
You must be more than just a friend to me
That is the truth that means you never began to me
Listen to what we do stay true what we will always be
Tide for life that's why

(Chorus)
I ain't got time to worry about people
That don't worry about me
I ain't got time to listen to people
That don't listen to me
I ain't got time to care about people
That don't care about me
So there's a reason why I can't
Now is it so hard to understand

(Verse)
I never really understood
When I called you were gone
That your daughter never saw you
Never saw you, never saw you no
So would, so would, so would, so would I look
Now I'm not talking to you but you wanna know more

(Chorus)
I ain't got time to worry about people
That don't worry about me
I ain't got time to listen to people
That don't listen to me
I ain't got time to care about people
That don't care about me
So there's a reason why I can't
Now is it so hard to understand

(Bridge)
How'd you get so low
You gotta go baby let go
How'd you get so low
You gotta go baby let go
How'd you get so low
You gotta go baby let go
How'd you get so low
You gotta go baby let go
How'd you get so low
You gotta go baby let go
How'd you get so low
You gotta go baby let go
How'd you get so low
You gotta go baby let go
How'd you get so low
You gotta go baby let go

(Chorus)
I ain't got time to worry about people
That don't worry about me
I ain't got time to listen to people
That don't listen to me
I ain't got time to care about people
That don't care about me




So there's a reason why I can't
Now is it so hard to understand
