Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't play games
I don't like change
I don't like checks and
I don't play games
I don't like stressing
I don't like pressure
I don't play games (Yea, yea)
I don't play games, I don't play these games
I don't like change, I don't like to change
I don't like checks, I don't like these checks
I don't play games, I don't play these games
I don't like stressing, I don't like to stress
I don't like pressure I don't like this pressure
I don't play games, yea yea
Don't like these thoughts that always manifest when I'm alone
Don't talk to me don't wanna deal with someone else's problem
Don't like these people crowding me I'd rather be at home
Don't start a fight and argue with me cause you know it's toxic
Don't like the fact that I'm 19 without a job to go to
Don't wanna be inside just scrolling half my life away
Don't like that I don't like to socialize and that I'm broke
Don't like that I'm still writing this on shitty scraps of paper
Don't act like you know shit about my life don't hit my phone
Don't want attention or a mention from your "has been" hater
Don't cross the line and act better cause you've got fakes who follow
Don't like that I can't get the recognition that you do
Don't like that I can't get the words out that I'd really like to
Don't really have any friends, yeah
Don't wanna tell my full story to someone
Like they deserve to hear the end of my message
Entitlements now a trend yeah, just don't cause
I don't play these games
I don't like change, I don't like to change
I don't like checks, I don't like these checks
I don't play games, and I don't play these games
I don't like stressing, and I don't like to stress
I don't like pressure I really don't like this pressure
I don't play games, yea
Don't mess with no one but my crew my backs aligned straight
The weight I held to my old now that's a full sport
Food for thought in that Jan/come run down my court
Cold coffee in my cup now that's a mind race
Flowers blooming the way we plant the seeds over here
Orange trees in the winters way I say no to fear
Grow a slow bokay to hold your own I told you dear
Autumn leaves when I call
So hit my line (Up)
And I don't play these kinds of games you be throwing right at me
And I don't like to change my mind when I feel you've attacked me
And I don't like this pressure to save all my checks I guess
That I don't like this stress, ugh yea
And I don't play these kinds of games you be throwing right at me
And I don't like to change my mind when I feel you've attacked me
And I don't like this pressure to save all my checks I guess
That I don't like this stress it's disabled my neck that's heavy
Even with all this therapy seem to slip up a lot




They offered pills so I don't off myself now that's a lot
Now that's a lot
