Lyrics
Let them misunderstand you Let them underestimate you You know who you are and if someone wants to objectify you through their own bias, let them. How you talk all day from the couch While I make it rain, stay runnin’ ya mouth Built myself, from the ground It’s passion, No times for the games or the madness You slept on me now you wish you didn’t Now your woke, gone, pour one for the driven High flying, never look down, worth it Next time you try to come for me, mean it Don’t play with me Dont play with me I’ll grab my peace Don’t want ya energy Keep it away from me I’ll grab my peace Don’t play with me Don’t play with me It’s between you and me I’ll always choose me And that’s the way it’s gonna be. Don’t play with me Dont play with me I’ll grab my peace Don’t want ya energy Keep it away from me I’ll grab my peace Don’t play with me Don’t play with me It’s between you and me I’ll always choose me And that’s the way it’s gonna be. The fame, public eye, truman show You can have it Make sure you clear the dough And I’ll make sure to grab it Stacking up my bread Billionaire rising If you don’t go Up for me Imma keep it 100, cut you out, no remorse Chaos brings havoc Go head have a ball Keep on talking mess Now when you come begging to me, Ghostly Wanna know what I’m doing, Google’s free. Don’t play with me Dont play with me I’ll grab my peace Don’t want ya energy Keep it away from me I’ll grab my peace Don’t play with me Don’t play with me It’s between you and me I’ll always choose me And that’s the way it’s gonna be. I might look nice and demur Gym-netically Body right skin tight But don’t let this cute face fool you If You wanna act up, You will can be released, On the side of messed up Is where you can find me you gone around You gone find out Go play somebody else Don't keep trying me. Don’t play with me Dont play with me (Don’t Play With Me) I’ll grab my peace Don’t want ya energy Keep it away from me (Away from me) I’ll grab my peace Don’t play with me Don’t play with me It’s between you and me I’ll always choose me And that’s the way it’s gonna be.
