Boomerang
Miller Marcus Lyrics

You're a taker, baby, takin' but never givin'
You only take and never give anything back in return.

You better be careful, baby, ooh, 'bout how you're livin'
Be cautious about how you live and treat others because it may have consequences.

See love don't like when you break hearts like that
Love doesn't appreciate it when you break someone's heart.

(Just like a boomerang) just like a boomerang, it's gonna come right back, oh
Whatever you do will eventually come back to you in some form of karma.

(Just like a boomerang) just like a boomerang
The same consequences you cause will come back to you.

Now when you get through stompin' on my heart like that
After hurting him/her, be careful of what may happen to you.

Keep your eyes open baby, ooh, you better watch your back
Be extra cautious and attentive because people may retaliate against you.

'Cause love will turn around and do the same damn thing to you
Love can be unpredictable and may hurt you when you least expect it.

(Just like a boomerang) just like a boomerang, it's gonna come back to you, oh
The harm you cause will come back to you in some form of karma.

Oh I love you baby
The artist still has love towards the person they are talking to.

You got me hangin' on a string
The person has power over the singer's emotions and is controlling them.

Tear out my heart and throw it down, what goes around comes around (when you live like that)
The person is causing immense emotional pain and the wrong they do will eventually catch up to them.

(When you live like that) when you hurt me like you do
When you cause pain in the way that the person did to the singer.

(Just like a boomerang) just like a boomerang, it's gonna come back to you, yeah
The negative actions will result in negative consequences.

Listen to what I'm saying
Pay attention to the singer's warning.

Oh I love you baby
The artist still loves the person despite what they've done.

Tear out my heart and throw it down, as long as my feet is on the ground
Even though they are causing immense emotional pain, the artist is still standing and moving forward.

I'll be alright, can't keep me down
No matter what happens, the singer will still persevere and overcome it.

'Cause what goes around comes around
The bad actions someone does will eventually catch up to them.

(When you live like that) when you live like that
When you behave in a harmful and selfish manner.

It's gonna come right back (don't you know it's gonna come right back)
The harm you cause will eventually come back to you.

(When you live like that) when you hurt me like you do
When you cause pain in the way that the person did to the artist.

(Just like a boomerang) just like a boomerang, it's gonna come back to you, yeah
The negative actions will result in negative consequences.

(When you live like that) ooh, when you take but never give, baby (ooh, when you take)
When you only take from others and never reciprocate.

(It's gonna come right back) better check out how you're living baby
Be aware of the harmful behavior you exhibit because it will be met with negative consequences.

(When you live like that) when you hurt me like you do
When you cause pain in the way that the person did to the singer.

(Just like a boomerang) just like a boomerang, oh oh
The negative actions will result in negative consequences.

Ain't nobody love you
No one will love you if you continue to behave this way.

You had one so special
The artist was very important to the person, but they were careless with their emotions.

Whoa, oh no, oh ooh ooh
Expression of sadness and disappointment towards the person's behavior.
