Lyrics

I'm holding out strong for mutual affection
Yeah, I've been through the hurt, I've been through the lesson
But I rose from the wreckage with self-love as a weapon
I don't need a warm body to fill in the space
I need loyalty, truth, and a whole lot of grace
I'm not wasting time on a maybe a flame
I'm royalty, baby, I know I'm a king
I'd rather be patient than beg to be seen
Won't settle for the last, I know what love means
So I'll wait for the one who deserves my flame
No more chasing hearts, I forget my name
I used to lower my standards ignore red flags
Now I walk when I see them, I ain't touching that bag
I'm not desperate for touches or some lips for the night
I want death, real talks, and someone who's right
Nah, I ain't wasting time on a one-night dance
I know who I am, I got real man plans
I'd rather sleep alone than fake some spark
I'm waiting for a queen who can match this heart
I'm not begging to be chosen, I choose me now
No more shrinking my light, no more dumbing it down
If love ain't aligned, then I'll gladly stay single
I'm more than a moment, I'm a long-term symbol
Yeah, I've had my fair share of pretty distractions
But beauty fades fast without heart or some action
I'm not falling for sweet words that ain't got roots
I need love for the backbone, not just looks in the smooth
I bring presence, protection, vision, and drive
Not just out here surviving, I was born to thrive
So don't come to me talking about why you alone
Unless you're bringing peace, that feels like home
I'm not hard to love, I'm just hard to fool
I've outgrown a phase of a stinking cool for cruel
So yeah, I'm single, but not 'cause I lack
I'm just not settling for someone who won't match back
Learned from the past, from every scar and sting
How to wear my pain like a soul wears a ring
Used to beg for love, now I wait like a king
'Cause what's meant for me gon' come without strength
I ain't chasing shallow, I'm building deep
Someone who's solid, someone who keeps
Promises, presents, no mask to wear
Just raw connection and a soul that cares
I used to dim down just to fit in their frame
How I light up the room, they remember my name
No more almost, no more someday plans
I'm done with the crumbs, I got wholemeal hands
So don't ask me why I'm still standing alone
I'd rather be real than be loved and alone
I'm not here to gamble my heart away
I need a love that's real, one that'll stay
I'm holding out for someone unique
Who matches my strength, word for word
Cheek to cheek, ain't looking for help
I need the hole, someone who speaks to my heart and soul
I refuse to settle, no matter the pace
'Cause I know my worth is not up for debate
So that every way is still single, I reply with pride
'Cause I'd rather wait long than ride with the tide
Love ain't a race, I'm taking my time
'Cause forever's too long to end up with a lie
So until she arrives, that real one, that rare
I keep working on me, breathing my air
I ain't better, just better, just build the discern
What I bring to the table something you can't burn
Pull it out
