Not Lookin Lyrics by Mary J. Blige

Mary

1999

[Intro: K-Ci & Mary J. Blige & K-Ci]
Well
I'm not lookin', I'm not lookin'
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I'm not lookin' either
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't wanna come to you
Sit down and let me talk to you
Oh, save it, save it, save it
For a little while, my sugar
You've been talking for too long
Yeah, go ahead, go ahead
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
What you gotta say? What you gonna say this time?
How many lies are you gonna tell?
Don't be afraid about what your about to hear right now, baby
Oh, listen
What is it?
[Verse 1: K-Ci]
I'm not trying to fall in love with you
I just wanna hit you with my groove, yes, I do, yes, I do
What I'm tryin' to say, I'm not tryin' to be mean
No, no, no, no, but, but baby, can't you respect my honesty?
I'm tryin' to tell you I'm not lookin', baby
[Chorus: K-Ci]
I'm not looking for no love affair
Won't nobody tell you that they seen me there?
So, I don't need you trippin', tryin' to take me there
I'm not looking for no love affair
Sometimes it makes me feel so sad to think about it, but I'm not looking, baby, baby, yeah
I'm not looking for no love affair
Won't nobody tell you that they seen me there?
So, I don't need you trippin', tryin' to take me there
Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary, sing it, girl
[Verse 2: Mary J. Blige]
You think you got what it takes to please me
I'm not impressed by your honesty, oh no, no
I don't need you to tell me I look good, I don't need it, no (I know you don't)
'Cause I've been here and back around my hood
And I'm tryin' to tell you somethin'
[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]
I'm not lookin' for no player shit (Oh no)
Not when everybody's trying to get with this (Oh no)
You see, I don't need you here just to get a hit
I'm not lookin' for no player shit (Oh oh)
I'm not lookin' for no player shit
Not when everybody's tryin' to get with this (Don't want it)
You see, I don't need you here just to get a hit
(Don't need it, don't want your hits no more)
I'm not lookin' for no player shit
[Bridge: Mary J. Blige & K-Ci]
Where were you when everything was goin' down?
I left my man and didn't have no one around
See, I don't need it, I don't want it
You're not the nigga for it
You think that you can get it
Know right now I'm not gonna let it
Oh, please stop fronting on that player shit
I heard around the town you were still down with it
If you think I don't know, sugar, let me tell you so
Let me in, let's begin, but what I want, yeah, be friends
[Outro: Mary J. Blige & K-Ci]
I'm not lookin' for no love affair
I'm not lookin' for no player shit
Yeah yeah
Oh, not when everybody's trying to get with me
I'm not even trying, baby
All day and all night you fool, I don't need it
Don't need it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm not lookin' for no love affair
I swear tired of playin' games
My mind, mind, mind is all confused, baby, yeah
I don't wanna be down, go ahead, go ahead
Go ahead, oh
I don't wanna be down, I'm tired of playing games
Tired of chasing your egomaniac, egotistical, chest sticking out
Oh baby
Think you got the gift of the world, ohThat's not me, that's not me, that's not me
Hate to do it to you like this
Yeah, yeah, yeah
But I got to do it cause it's only right
To let you know I'm not looking
For no arrogant egotistical player shit
I hear you
I'm not lookin'
Do you really hear me? Then hear this
I'm sick and tired of chasing you
I understand you, baby
Sick and tired of holding you
I said I hear you
Go ahead, go ahead
All my ladies stand up and clap
I understand you
If you feel me, if you feel me
Come with something better than that please
I'm so sorry, Mary
I know you're sorry
