Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look say what you want when you want it
Nine times outta ten I'll be on it
Say what you want when you're horny
All I need is you to be honest
All of these hidden messages in your text
Why you gotta to play way too hard to get
As if I'm supposed to really know what it is
You don't tell me much, but you telling all your friends
If I don't hit your phone you gone swear I'm inconsistent
But you the one that's giving me all these mixed signals
Channel your emotions but instead you on mute
It's ok to let these feelings really get control of you
See I know just what it is that got us idle
Your last guy wanted everything but the title
Now you afraid every guy that say they like you
You want to make him prove it cause your next ones your final
Uhhhnnn
I'm pursuing more but I'm feeling you made no progress
Thinking just because you text me that its obvious
I shoulda hit you with that what are we text but I digress
Say what you want when you want it
Nine times outta ten I'll be on it
Look Say what you want when you horny
All I need is you to be honest
For real say that shit
Say that shit
Say that shit
Say that shit
Look say what you want when you want it
Nine times outta ten I'll be on it
Look Say what you want when you're horny
All a I need is you to be honest
For real
Say that shit
Say that shit
Say that shit
Say that shit
You say that you were sleep but Facebook told me different
Since I gave a lil ass niggas start to act different
You front in front your friends and make it look like I'm trippin
But you good morning beautiful when you notice Im distant
I promise it's a sickness
You don't want me when I'm in your face
But tell me am I in your way
Cause nigga you can move around
Trying to have your cake and eat it
Wanna play me like a clown
How you play it is how it's dealt i promise it'll come back around
So I'm hella straight
All the small talk and heart eyes just be hella fake
Work to get my time and when you got it you just hesitate
To show me that it's real when I wanted you to elevate
Never missed the red flags just thought that they'll be better days
I'm trying to see through all the trauma
The beauty of it all is I ain't become a baby mama
To another black man taught to be a distant lover
Taught to be a distant lover
Nigga say what you want when you want it
Nine times outta ten I'll be on it
Look Say what you want when you're horny
All I need is you to be honest
For real
Say that shit
Say that shit
Say that shit
Say that shit
Look say what you want when you want it
Nine times outta ten I'll be on it
Say what you want when you're horny
All I need is you to be honest
For real

Heal the world, make it a better place,
A man with a message, a smiling face,
Through the pain, he found his way,
In his music, forever, he'll stay.

Beat It, with a fearless stride,
Black or White, he stood with pride,
Man in the Mirror, change within,
Michael's spirit, a lasting win.

He danced upon the stage so bright,
With moves that took us to new heights,
His voice, a gift from up above,
A legacy of music, peace, and love.

Though he's gone, his songs remain,
In our hearts, his eternal reign,
Michael Jackson, forevermore,
The King of Pop, we'll always adore.

Lyrics:

Say, say, say what you want but don't play games with my affection
Take, take, take what you need but don't leave me with no direction
All alone I sit home by the phone waiting for you baby (baby)
Through the years how can you stand to hear my pleading for you dear?
You know I'm crying, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Yeah

Now go, go, go where you want but don't leave me here forever
You, you, you stay away so long, girl, I see you never
What can I do, girl, to get through to you
'Cause I love you baby (baby)
Standing here baptized in all my tears, baby through the years
You know I'm crying, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hee, hee, hee
What you say, say, say, what you say, say, say

You never ever worry and you never shed a tear
You're saying that my love ain't real
Just look at my face, these tears ain't drying

You, you, you can never say that I'm not the one who really loves you
I pray, pray, pray every day that you'll see things, girl, like I do
What can I do, girl, to get through to you
'Cause I love you (love you) baby (baby)
Standing here baptized in all my tears, baby through the years
You know I'm crying, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Say, say, say

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say (fire, fire)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say

You never ever worry and you never shed a tear
You're saying that my love ain't real
Just look at my face, these tears ain't drying

You, you, you can never say that I'm not the one who really loves you
I pray, pray, pray every day that you'll see things, girl, like I do

Nah Michael carried the song, Paul couldn't sing, sound like the basic generic white singer, every tone and pitch is the same, no matter what he sings
