[Intro]
Yeah…
I swear I be tryin’ do right…
But it’s somethin’ ‘bout the wrong ones
You feel me?
⸻
[Chorus]
I don’t know why I be choosin’ the drama
Pass on a queen, chase a problem
Good girl callin’, I decline her
Toxic one text, I’m behind her
I know she bad for me, I know
Still let her slide like a free throw
Say I’m done, but I reload
Same damn cycle, here we go
⸻
[Verse 1]
She too nice, always askin’ ‘bout my day
Cook, clean, tryna take my stress away
Say she proud, say she prayin’ for a king
But it feel too calm, I don’t feel a thing
Then the other one come in with attitude
Talk slick, got a whole different mood
Say she don’t care, barely pick up my calls
But when she come around, got me breakin’ my rules
I be knowin’ what it is from the jump
One gon’ build, one gon’ tear it all up
One bring peace, one bring chaos and lust
And somehow I keep choosin’ the one I can’t trust
Late night drivin’, got me thinkin’ it through
Why I run from the real, chase the ones that ain’t true?
Maybe it’s me, maybe I’m used to the stress
Maybe I confuse that pain for the best
⸻
[Chorus]
I don’t know why I be choosin’ the drama
Pass on a queen, chase a problem
Good girl callin’, I decline her
Toxic one text, I’m behind her
I know she bad for me, I know
Still let her slide like a free throw
Say I’m done, but I reload
Same damn cycle, here we go
⸻
[Verse 2]
She got patience, she don’t yell, she don’t fight
Tryna build somethin’ real, do it right
But I’m bored when it’s smooth, I can’t lie
Used to storms, I be chasin’ that high
Other one wild, got me losin’ my mind
One minute good, next she switchin’ the vibe
Block me, unblock me, playin’ games with my time
But I still double back like I’m pressin’ rewind
Know I should leave, but I stay for the thrill
Heart say chill, but my habits say deal
She don’t treat me how the good one would
But the way she move got me feelin’ too good
I be tellin’ myself “this the last time”
Then she pull up, now I’m back in that vibe
All that growth I was talkin’ ‘bout gone
Soon as she hit me, I’m back in her zone
⸻
[Bridge]
Why I push away the one that’s solid?
Why I entertain the one that’s toxic?
I see the signs, I just don’t stop it
Know it’s wrong but I still want it
⸻
[Chorus]
I don’t know why I be choosin’ the drama
Pass on a queen, chase a problem
Good girl callin’, I decline her
Toxic one text, I’m behind her
I know she bad for me, I know
Still let her slide like a free throw
Say I’m done, but I reload
Same damn cycle, here we go
⸻
[Verse 3]
Maybe one day I’ma break that pattern
Find me a real one, build it after
But right now I’m stuck in my ways
Caught in the heat of these momentary flames
She told me “you gon’ miss me later”
I laughed it off, didn’t wanna save her
Now I see what she really meant
Peace cost less but I chose that rent
Toxic love got a hold on me
Feel like I need it, it controlin’ me
Even when I see it clear as day
I still turn back, I still go that way
