Cut It Out
Tink Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You don't touch me the way that you used to
Something is missing, see all of this distance is very unusual
Some day I hope you can find the way to my heart again
Just let me go if that's what it is
These niggas don't like no one but themselves
I can't deny all the feelings I felt
I laid it all the on line
Boy, you consistently lied to me
You said, you'll never betray me for no other girls
I could've cheated, but I kept it thorough
So fuckin' stupid, in love with a fraud (fraud)
Boy, you don't know what you want
First it was Britney, and then it was Sydney, and now it's Alyssa
I asked you, "What's up?" and you said, "You don't know" as if you caught amnesia
I'm so disappointed, all of this shit is annoying
I'm sick of startin' over every month
I'm always fallin' in and out love, 'cause

I don't wanna be with a man, if he ain't gon' have my interest (no, no)
I don't want your love anymore 'cause you don't take this serious (no, no)
I don't wanna talk things out, I've already heard your story
It's the same old lies
You know you niggas ain't right, gotta cut you out of my life

Don't tell me you love me, tell me you love me, cut it out
Don't tell me you need me, tell me you need me, cut it out
Don't tell me you love me, tell me you love me, cut it out
Don't tell me you need me, tell me you need me, yeah

You don't like when I get on your case
Talkin' to me like you can't be replaced
Now you're disruptin' my peace
Fuck out my way, boy, I'm just tryna leave
'Cause I ain't got nothing for no one
Boy, I'm so blue, gotta roll some
Actin' like I was the only one
Clearly one woman is not enough for you
You, you, you, you, oh
So I'm through, through, through, so through
Really I thought you was solid
You turned around and you folded
I should've took that advice
Went and had sex with your guys
Just to get even tonight, ay
I'm way too loyal for you and it's crazy
Oh, baby, I could've destroyed you
You actin' careless right now
But don't hit me when all them new bitches ignore you
Yeah, I know that it's comin' one day
You gon' do you either way
We gotta break up

I don't wanna be with a man, if he ain't gon' have my interest (no, no)
I don't want your love anymore 'cause you don't take this serious (no, no)
I don't wanna talk things out, I've already heard your story
It's the same old lies
You know you niggas ain't right, gotta cut you out of my life

Don't tell me you love me, tell me you love me, cut it out
Don't tell me you need me, tell me you need me, cut it out
Don't tell me you love me, tell me you love me, cut it out
Don't tell me you need me, tell me you need me, yeah
Don't tell me you love me, tell me you love me, cut it out (love me)
Don't tell me you need me, tell me you need me, cut it out
Don't tell me you love me, tell me you love me, cut it out (love me)
Don't tell me you need me, tell me you need me

Don't tell me you love me, tell me you love me
Don't tell me you need me, tell me you need me




Don't tell me you love me, tell me you love me
Don't tell me you need me, tell me you need me
