Lyrics

Let me tell you why

Why he can't be with you no more

Every time that you talk, you lie

(And I'm not taking it no more)

He won't be a fool for you

(All the things you put me through)

I know it sounds crazy to you, baby

(But I'm leaving you, I'm leaving, leaving)

I know you're thinking you're the bomb and your game is tight

And usually I'd give you props, but not tonight

And I know you're thinking this really don't concern me

But I'll tell you what, you're messing with my family

At the club, at the show, at the mall, we know

The look on your face said it all

Raising your voice ain't something you wanna do

But we can take it there, girl, if you want to

Let me tell you why (Why)

Why he can't be with you no more (No more)

Every time that you talk, you lie

(And I'm not taking it no more)

He won't be a fool for you

(All the things you put me through)

I know it sounds crazy to you, baby

(But I'm leaving you, I'm leaving, leaving)

Wasted my time, putting up with all your games

I'm not a toy, so why you tryna play with me?

Had me believe that you was out with your friend

Until she called, asking me where have you been

All the clothes, and the weaves, and the truck, it was me

Girl, you had it good but you just couldn't see

Ain't tryna hear your explanation

I'm leaving you in this situation

Let me tell you why (No, no)

Why he can't be with you no more (I'm leaving you)

Every time that you talk, you lie (You lie)

(And I'm not taking it no more) (I can't take it)

He won't be a fool for you (I won't be your fool)

(All the things you put me through)

(All the things that you put me through)

I know it sounds crazy to you, baby (Yeah, yeah)

(But I'm leaving you, I'm leaving, leaving)

You know I gave you everything

(Yeah, so did Cory, Trey and Steve)

You said that you'd be true to me

(She don't know what the word "true" means)

Girl, I wanna know why

(But you know she just gon' lie)

You said your love was mine

(Again, another lie)

Time to step, get on, be gone, goodbye

Let me tell you why

Every time that you talk, you lie

He won't be a fool for you

I know it sounds crazy to you, baby

But I'm leaving you, I'm leaving, leaving

Let me tell you why

Why he can't be with you no more

Every time that you talk, you lie

(And I'm not taking it no more)

He won't be a fool for you

(All the things you put me through)

(After all you put me through)

I know it sounds crazy to you, baby

(But I'm leaving you, I'm leaving, leaving)

You think that you're the bomb

And that your game is tight

And usually I'd give you props

But no, no, not tonight

I know you're thinking that this really don't concern me

I'll tell you what, you're messing with my family

Oh, oh, oh
