Amos Lee - Don't Get Played lyrics

[Hook] Maybe it's reason Maybe it's season For falling in love Maybe I'm dreamin' But I still believe in In falling in love Now I've been doing some drinkin' And doing some thinkin' Of all the above And maybe this time might be that time I don't get played (No, no, no, no...) And maybe this time might be that time I don't get played (No, no, no, no...) [Verse 1] You scared, so you scared, shorty Uh, Take off your cool, it's a bare as you dare party You know the rules, when you love and you care about somebody Only a fool wants a life you can't share with nobody Uh, n***a take a bar and think about it Uh, hit the bar and have a drink about it Cause I've been here before I opened up that door And ain't no turnin' back When people get attached Emotions get involved Like rollercoasters, y'all It's all smiles and giggles Until that first fall And if we break up and don't make up Who gets the dog? Am I moving too fast? Hope I ain't losing yo' a** If I do than just ask, we slow it down, down Just ask, we slow it down [Hook] [Verse 2] I once had a lover She dunce-capped a brother Put me on time-out to ride out With some other f**er Well motherf** her I ain't gon' cry about it Although I did when it happened I ain't gon' lie about it I know that pains' a part of life You ain't alive without it And what don't k** you make you stronger I ain't gon' die about it sh**, get high about it Get out and go for yours Remember God closes windows to open doors And them open sores They heal with time Nowadays, tattoo removal scars ain't hard to find To say that you forgive someone might the hardest line To steal a heart, and breaking apart may be the hardest crime It happened before, but never again, I'mma war with mine At God with mine [Hook]
