Selfish
Stella Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Something so mystical
Something so beautiful
Baby can you feel it?
I can feel it too
Don't play those games
I'm playing you

Could you really let it go?
Something so incredible, babe
Do you need me?
Like I need you?
I can play around
It's up to you

Scenarios go up in my head
Feelings all over the place
How can you say nothing's wrong
How would you feel If I quitted now?
Would you still tryna hold me down?

Give me answers
I'm losing patience, baby
Of carrying this relation crazy
You got me acting
You got me acting shady

Something so mystical
Something so beautiful
Baby can you feel it?
I can feel it too
Don't play those games
I'm playing you

Could you really let it go?
Something so incredible, babe
Do you need me?
Like I need you?
I can play around
It's up to you

Yes I said




Yes I said I can play around baby
I can play around baby
