Girls Like You
Tone Stith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Only you can ride with me (only you can, oh)
Where do I start? How do I say this?
I took some L's, I'm not okay with
I'm always tryna downplay this
I gotta stop before I drive myself crazy
I swear I thought I knew you
But you was just hiding the type of shit you do
After playing with a nigga's emotions, emotions (whoa, whoa)
It be girls like you (only you can ride with me)
That fuck it up for everybody else
It be girls like you (only you can ride with me)
That's bad for my health (only you can, baby)
It be girls like you (only you can ride with me)
Don't know how to keep it true
You suppose to ride or die
Too busy telling lies (whoa, whoa)
It be girls like you (only you can ride with me)
(Only you can, only you can baby)
I remember when only you belonged to me (only you can ride with me)
Thought we had planned on you taking my last name
Said you would leave me before and you would do me bad (only you can, only you can, baby)
Bitch still did me dirty and ain't cover up her tracks
It's okay, 'cause I still know I'm that nigga (only you can ride with me) (yeah)
Can't go out like that, but I wish I never met you at all
Now I just ignore all your calls (only you can ride with me)
Got me like, "Damn" (damn, damn) (only you can, only you can, baby)
You're so cold (whoa, whoa)
It be girls like you (only you can ride with me) (oh)
That fuck it up for everybody else
It be girls like you (only you can ride with me)
That's bad for my health (only you can, only you can, baby)
It be girls like you (only you can ride with me)
Don't know how to keep it true
You suppose to ride or die (ride or die)
Too busy telling lies (whoa, whoa)
It be girls like you (only you can ride with me)
(Girl, I)
Girl, I was giving you
All of my time and attention, I swear I thought I knew you
But you was just hiding the type of shit you do
After playing with a nigga's emotions, emotions (only you can, only you can)
It be girls like you
