Lyrics

Decline

I was always there for you, oh
I was always on time
And I gave you my all
So now you call, I decline
And now I don't know about you
But I know I'm gonna be fine
And I gave you my all
So now you call, I decline
All you think that you said when you running it
Now you're belling up my line like an ambulance
Say 'fam-fam-a-lam' no I'm done with it
No a 999 no emergency
Baby na na no I ain't into you
I'm a block you soon you're bug a boo baby
Back a man come unavailable
And I know I'm gonna find myself a better you
Brace yourself 'cause you needed me
Throwing all up 'cause you need the freak
But this ship is done sailed, I don't need you, B
No, you had a good girl yeah baby
I was always there for you, oh
I was always on time
And I gave you my all
So now you call, I decline
And now I don't know about you
But I know I'm gonna be fine
And I gave you my all
So now you call, I decline
I be ringing all day
I be ringing you
I be ringing you all day
Hold up wait hear me now
And Beyoncé said irreplaceable
I was holding all this begging you this
You was a, mother mother what you play me for
Now you said stop 'cause you needed me
Going all out 'cause you need the freak
But this ship done sailed I don't need you, B
You had a good girl yeah baby
I was always there for you, oh
I was always on time
And I gave you my all
So now you call, I decline
And now I don't know about you
But I know I'm gonna be fine
And I gave you my all
So now you call, I decline
Now baby you don't get to play me
Now baby oh, when you call, I decline
Now baby you don't get to play me
Now baby oh, when you call, I decline
Thought it'd be me with a call
Just want to say I'm sorry
Not gonna lie and say that I not been acting funny
But if I do it again, then you believe me honey
Give me one try, one try
You'll never regret
Baby, I was always there for you oh
I was always on time
And I gave you my all
So now you call, I decline
And now I don't know about you
But I know I'm gonna be fine
And I gave you my all
So now you call, I decline
Now baby you don't get to play me
Now baby oh, when you call, I decline (I was always there for you)
Now baby you don't get to play me
Now baby oh, when you call, I decline

You gon' shh when I talk let me finish
Getting all dressed up, I'm a kill it

You gon' shh when I talk let me finish
Why you go get gone I'm a get it
You can move over there
