[Verse 1]
I seen you smile, I lost my cool
I play it smooth, but you know the truth
I keep it fresh, I keep it light
I want your time, not just your night
You got me waiting at the door
Trying harder than before
I bring the vibe, I bring respect
I want your trust, that’s what I collect
[Pre-Chorus]
Girl, tell me what you need
I can move at your speed
No pressure, no games
I’m just saying your name
[Chorus]
Play it cool, play it cool
I’ll earn my way to you
Play it cool, play it cool
Let the real ones prove
Play it cool, play it cool
I can wait on you
Play it cool, play it cool
If it’s true, it’s true
[Verse 2]
You got a guard, I understand
Been burned before by careless men
I’m not here to force a thing
I’d rather catch your trust than wing
So I’ma show up, clean and right
Bring good talk and better nights
If you want slow, I’ll take it slow
If you want space, I let it grow
[Pre-Chorus]
Girl, tell me what you need
I can move at your speed
No pressure, no games
I’m just saying your name
[Chorus]
Play it cool, play it cool
I’ll earn my way to you
Play it cool, play it cool
Let the real ones prove
Play it cool, play it cool
I can wait on you
Play it cool, play it cool
If it’s true, it’s true
[Bridge]
Maybe you want more time
Maybe you need one sign
I can be that steady hand
The kind of man who understands
So I won’t rush your heart
Won’t tear your world apart
If you come, then you come
If you don’t, I’m still someone
[Chorus]
Play it cool, play it cool
I’ll earn my way to you
Play it cool, play it cool
Let the real ones prove
Play it cool, play it cool
I can wait on you
Play it cool, play it cool
If it’s true, it’s true
