Trevor Daniel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You don't wanna date me
You don't really love me
No more
And girl that's driving me crazy
I'm just pretending
That I don't give a fuck no more
Why you acting crazy
Why you acting jealous
You say you have another guy
Who would treat you better
Say I don't treat you right
But you got me messed up
Posting all on the gram acting like you love us
Damn babe
You act like I'm supposed to like this shit
Like I should know where your minds at
But you always flip
When I'm with another chick
And act like it was this
Nah we ain't cool babe
Head up rocking north face
I 'ma flex on you babe
Screaming "f*ck love" all day
But you wanted this, right?
You wanted this
You wanted this, right?
But you wanted this, right?
You wanted this
You wanted this, right?
You said that you hate me
You don't wanna date me
You don't really love me
No more
And girl it's driving me crazy
But damn as of lately
I just pretending
That I don't give a fuck no more
Till I don't give a fuck no more
I can tell you're missing me, girl
I can tell you're missing me, baby
I can see that look in your eyes
I can tell you're wishing that you never let me go
Never let me go
Never let me go
Never let me go
Never let me go
We ain't cool babe
No nah nah
Flexin' on your babe
No nah nah
You're just missing me babe
No nah nah
