Girl Like Me
Fantasia · Other Songs - Fantasia
Okay I'm changing my number
Cause you let me know it was nothing
See I thought that we were good, but I guess I misunderstood
Oh, you tried to play me like I'm stupid
Like I was one these groupies
If you can't return my calls, aint no point of even calling at all
Oh, you aint worth the headache
Stop before I go and get the heart break
Boy I'm cutting you loose, baby save the excuse because it's too late
Oh, tried to make it work with you, but you gotta want it too
Baby what's the use when I feel like you don't want it bad as I do
Chorus:
Girl like me aint gotta wait on your call
No a girl like me aint gotta wait around at all
Just cause you aint call then don't mean my phone aint ringing
Girl like me is cool with moving on (cool with moving on)
Verse 2:
Chance after chance I gave you
Cause you said that we can make it
Thinking that I wouldn't get hurt cause I trusted and believed in your word
Oh, sitting here giving all of my time
Even put them other niggas aside
You took advantage of a good thing,
you'll be wishing one day you still had me
Oh, some way you could've missed that
Cause I think you got it twisted
Just cause I like it, don't mean I'm the type to stick
around when you aint doing right
Well who do you think you are, quit playing games with my heart
Look what you've done to me
Boy I'm so over you
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Ahh...let me set the record straight, a girl like me will be okay
Yeah you had me open but I'm not about to be stuck on you
Ohh...if this means anything to you,
you should know that we are threw (You should know it)
Look how you played yourself
Boy I'm so over you
Repeat Chorus
