MARY J. BLIGE lyrics : "Not Today"

(feat. Eve)

This is another one of those heartbreak hotel joints for the ladies


Why won't u grow up & be a man someday
I can't believe that you're still playing silly games

Now why do I put up w/ all this child's play
Now if your word is all you have
Then u ain't worth a damn thing


[Chorus:]
Promises you told me every day

That you made you never ever kept
By me I really want to believe
But not today, not today, not today, not today


You're the worst
I can't even depend on u

U say a lot of good things
But something else u always do
Be a man of your word

Try to love something other than u
But now u can be on your way
Cause I don't want you to stay


[Eve:]
Promises bout our house

Bout the kids
Lifestyle we would live
Who the $#&@ you really is

In my face
All the time
Spittin' line after line

Broke down my wall and you got in my mind
You's a fake shoulda known
All the signs I was shown

Believed what I saw
And your cover was blown
Breakup, leave

Make up, please
You's a magician all them tricks up your sleeve
Had me for a minute

I was in it
U played good
But I'mma get you

Gotta get it
I'mma make moves
And I'mma leave you where you at dog, chill

Go back to square one
Wait for something real
Selfish ^!$$%

Could have helped you ^!$$%
Usually know betta but I felt you ^!$$%
I guess getting in my head was a part of the plan

Cause in reality the only thing you giving me is

Promises you told me every day

That you made you never ever kept
By me I really want to believe
But not today, not today, not today, not today


Don't let him waste your time girl
He's only telling lies girl

And when he apologizes (and he will)
Don't be believing that man
Cause he gon' do it again


Promises you told me every day
That you made you never ever kept

By me I really want to believe
But not today, not today, not today, not today
