Character Lyrics by Destini Stacy

Siren

2019

[Intro]
See me prospering with another nigga
Thought you couldn't be replaced, how the fuck you figure?
My new boo like 'em, edges nappy, hair thick
Soft skin, big lips, his brown girl, his brown girl
Love his brown girl, his brown girl
[Verse 1]
I got love for you darling, see I've got nothing else to give
(I got nothing else, I got nothing else to give, yeah)
And I ain't mad at you baby, got to get it how you live
(Got to get it how, got to get it how you live)
Said I wouldn't write about you no more, yeah
Said I wouldn't write about loss (Write about loss, write about loss)
Said I'd only sing about love you on, yeah
And never about what it cost (About what it cost, about what it cost)
[Chorus]
But you gone make me come out of my character
'Cause when you was down and out
Tell me who was there for you (Down for you, yeah, said I was down you, nah)
See, you gone make me come with different energy
'Cause this ain't even me
But tell me who was there for you (I was down for you, I was down for you, I was down)
[Verse 2]
Well I done found me a new thing and my baby he loves me so, yeah, yeah
I put a spell on him last night so that he'd never let me go (He won't let me go, he won't let me go)
My baby he takes good care of me and he keeps a smile on my face
He wants me both now and later, 'cause he thinks that I'm sweet to taste
[Chorus]
But you gone make me come out of my character
'Cause when you was down and out
Tell me who was there for you
See, you gone make me come with different energy
'Cause this ain't even me
But tell me who was there for you, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know
[Bridge]
I've been on both sides, he say I give him Badu vibes
Word to Sade is it a crime
To give love a shot just one more time?
Said I've been on both sides, he say I give him Badu vibes
Word to Sade is it a crime
To give love a shot just one more time?
See, I've been on both sides
But you gone make me come out of my character
He say I give him Badu vibes
'Cause when you was down and out
Word to Sade is it a crime
Tell me who was there, who was there for you yeah
To give love a shot just one more time? Nah, look
Said, you gone make me come with different energy
He say I give him Badu vibes
'Cause this ain't even me
Word to Sade is it a crime
I was down for you, I was down for you, I was down for you
To give love a shot just one more time, one more time?
Nah, I-I-I know, yeah, yeah, see
You won't make me come out of my character
I don't wanna go there with you
'Cause I was the one who cared for you, yeah
Said I was the one who cared for you
And you see me moving out now
Right another [?] now
So you roll up in my phone now
But you have to get gone now
[Outro]
I think I spent too much time
Afraid of losing you
Instead of choosing you
Been slowly moving through time and Space on my own
With no place to call home, but you turn me around
I'm talking literally, arched back face down
I know it sounds personal
But the truth is all I know
And the truth is the truth is, I need you, I need you babe
And the truth is the truth is, I need you, I need you babe
