Part I
[Intro: Ari Lennox]
'Cause period
Fuck wrong with this nigga?
Mm, mm, mm
[Chorus: Ari Lennox & JID]
I said, can't make you change
Can't make you change
Can't make you change (I tried)
Can't make you change (Uh, no)
Look
[Verse 1: JID]
Stuck in my ways, I know it kinda sucks
Wastin' all this time and trust
Diamonds in the rough, that had the toughest luck at findin' love
You can't change a nigga playin' games, girl, you should find a sub
Musiq Soulchild or Lil Wayne should teach me how to love (Me how to love)
Or teach you how to turn a ho into a house husband from out the club (No)
Known as a buster, TLC would call me a scrub
Back when I was but now I'm gettin' it slow as fuck (Oh, oh)
I'm growin' up and you know that I'm stubborn, you tryna rush it but
[Chorus: Ari Lennox]
Can't make you change
Can't make you change
Can't make you change
Can't make you change (Ayy, right here?)
Can't make you change (Alright, no, baby, baby)
Can't make you change
Can't make you change (No, I tried)
Can't make you change (It's bad, it's bad, ugly ass, lame ass, dirty ass, ugly ass)
[Bridge: Ari Lennox & JID]
Baby, don't leave, you're all I need
And if you stay then I'ma change my ways
Baby, don't leave, you're all I need
And if you stay then I'ma change my ways (Please)
Baby, don't leave, you're all I need
And if you stay then I'ma change my ways (Please)
Baby, don't leave, you're all I need
And if you stay then I'ma change my ways (I'm gonna change)
[Verse 2: JID]
Jugglin' pain and strugglin' problems
Lookin' for danger, duckin' and dodgin'
I got the banger and not a small one
Niggas be changin' like a revolver
You been the same but you done been solid, mane
I could applaud ya, fuck all the fame and fuck all the dollars, mane
What were they talkin'? I'm ashamed
It feel like I lose the game
She said that my head too hard
I tried to be good but nah
I'm leavin' it up to God
Squeezin' the Gra-ta-ta
Oh my, did I go too far, too far, too far?
[Outro]
You can't change, the only thing you wanna change is the motherfuckin' beats
Let's have a word, we can talk about that shit
You know what I'm sayin'?
My baby daddy pissed me off today
So we could talk about this nigga, zero accountability
Want a bad bitch but it's too much responsibility
Part II
[Intro]
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, uh, look, uh
[Verse]
A nigga wanna change, tryin' hard as I can
But it's hard to try to redesign the nature of man
DND, she in my DM for my DNA strands
Ain't fall for the scam
Then again I'm fightin' off all the thoughts in my pants
Pretty broads, ménages, spend a Fall out in France
In the stars on the ocean, in a boat, or the sand
Don't you lie to me, do me like you Delilah and Samson
I can change, you ain't even really give me a chance (Nigga I gave your ass, one million, two million, three million fuckin' chances)
Look, save the narrative, you savin' it for marriage
I'm flyin' back from Paris, I can text you in the air
Remember when we met and you said that you love the fade but I should grow my hair
Ex man was banned, couldn't grow a pair
Then you start fuckin' with the Mrs. not the messieurs
Life is love, love is really life as long as it's pure
I ain't speakin' of genders, you could follow agendas
I ain't tryna be the guy that's gon' make you cry me a river
Like I'm Justin Timber, Timberlake or Timbaland, I'm controllin' my temper
Good, before I turn into a timber wolf
In the woods, you my little red ridin' hood
Thought you was hidin' how you feelin', it's kinda obvious
On a connectin' flight to Atlanta, leavin' LaGuardia
Arguin' over anonymous women, now we got the audience, fuck
[Outro]
Don't play with me, raise your coin
Come pick up your kids and go home to your bitch
The one that you could, the one that you could play with (Period)
Not this one, ha, for real
Shady, shady boots
Ha, ha, what Mike Epps say? Stop callin' here, you fuckin' up my family
It's a real nigga who will, ha, it's a real nigga who will
And that's on Mary's first lamb, hahaha
