Joy Denalane - Let Go lyrics

A player only loves you when he's playing
Girlfriend I hope you listen
To what I'm saying how you think you gonna
Stop him from betraying
Can't teach an old dog new tricks you know
You like a man who's rough around the edges
Claiming he's changing
A bunch of empty pledges
Can't believe a damn thing he alleges
Think twice before you head on down that road

Ladies you got to learn to let go
Cause he ain't never gonna change no
Now it's time to show him out the door
Not gonna take his mess nor more

He got you waiting at home while
He's out in club all night
Got to let go, got to let go
Got you paying all the bills and
You know that it ain't right
Got to let go, got to let go
If he got a baby mama-drama all over the town
Got to let go, got to say no
Even your friends try to tell
You he's messing around
Got to let go, got to let go

They promise you the stars in the beginning
It takes a while for you to
Find out that he's swindeling
Depending on your money and he's clinging
You live and learn only if you recognize
You stick with him because you
Thinks he needs you
It's almost like you don't see
The way he treats you
There's even talk you won't leave him
Because you're too weak to

And don't think I haven't been
Through it all myself e hoping that one day
He'll become someone else

He be puffing on weed first
Thing in the morn'
Got to let go, got to let go
Is he still sitting in the same
Spot when you get home
Got to let go, got to let go
The whole world's against him
But it's never his fault
Got to let go, got to say no
You try to break it down
But he don't hear you at all
Got to let go, got to let go
