Standoff Lyrics by IanJ

Standoff Single

2019

[Verse 1: J. Griffie]
Baby you be hard to handle
Now we at a standoff
I see that you like waiting for the right time
Just so you could try to take your mans out
Shawty you be on your damn moods
But girl, the game is over
We’ve been going at it way too long now (Now)
I shoulda knew you would take it the wrong way
Baby now we at a standoff
You shoot
Ima shoot back
Take your ten steps
You lose
Should’ve known that
You was never built for a standoff
Peeped game
See you changed
But you act the same way
If our egos are to blame
Then we’re on the same page

[Chorus: Ian J]
Guess we’re at a standoff
Yea
Lights might go out tonight
Still too hot to handle
Ooooh
Maybe it’ll all be alright

[Verse 2: Tiny Yalla]
I've been watching what I'm saying
Cause I don’t know how you'll take it
Feelings of isolation
I don’t know if I can take it
I haven’t been myself for way too long
The magic that I felt is fleeting gone
Now we at a standoff
Feels so wrong
I'm trying my best to hold my tongue
It’s in vain
I'm too late
Trying my best to save us
Is this fate?
Too much pain
Maybe it’s best to break up
But I don’t wanna lose you tonight
Baby let’s lay down the fight
And maybe it'll all be alright

[Chorus: Ian J]
Guess we’re at a standoff
Yea
Lights might go out tonight
Still too hot to handle
Ooooh
Maybe it’ll all be alright

[Verse 3: Ian J]
Used to be friends
Things I can not wrap my head around
You been standoff-ish
Only, you pretend all is okay
Used to be kids
All of these years have dulled this blade
So much tension built
Why do we pretend all is okay?
