I've taken credit, I've barely even made it
Watch myself waiting for one more hit, I'll take it
A serpent's bite, a lick like that
I *** so fast, thought we're right on track
Running and running to get away from you
I'm getting further and then you block my view
A mindful act, a forceful fact
Just making sure, keep the truth in the bag
Why don't you like it when I say yes
Turn around and say no
You like the chase I'm making
Why don't you hate it when I say yes
Turn around and say no
Boy, you're the one that taught me
Ripe and ready, pick me baby
Hold me steady like your baby
Ripe and ready, pick me baby
Hold me steady, baby
I'm finding the ride is getting harder
One day by day I've been feeling so much louder
A silent breath, my mind is clear
The end is near, seems I've beat the fear
Again and again I'm sending out my flowers
Sometimes it's you but not for endless hours
Bloom again, I've done it twice
Paid the price, I'm in paradise
Why don't you like it when I say yes
Turn around and say no
You always think I'm fake
Why don't you hate it when I say yes
Turn around and say no
Boy, how you gonna *** me
Ripe and ready, pick me baby
Hold me steady like your baby
Ripe and ready, pick me baby
Hold me steady, baby
Tell me, tell me, tell me
When you pull me back in for a treating
Say you'll need me when you're hurting
Lay low, lay low
Kinda thought that it'd be me to not let go
I never see the halo, halo
Pull me back in for a treating
Say you'll need me when you're hurting
Lay low, lay low
Kinda thought that it'd be me to not let go
I never see the halo, halo
Why don't you like it when I say yes
Turn around and say no
You like the taste of my pain
Why don't you hate it when I say yes
Turn around and say no
Boy, you're the one that taught me
Ripe and ready, pick me baby
Hold me steady like your baby
Ripe and ready, pick me baby
Hold me steady, baby
