"Promises" Lyrics

Yeah
Whatchall wanna do
At ya one more time,
Know what I mean
But this time,
You ain't gonna be makin'
no more promises

Don't make promises
That you cannot keep
Don't say things that you don't really mean
Don't make promises (to me)
That you cannot keep
Don't say things that you don't really mean

I gave you the world
And you tried to give it back
Tell me what is goin' on
There was nothing wrong
With you lovin' me right back
Then I turned around and you're gone

You told me that your love was real and now,
and I believed you, I believed you
Now I'm convinced that we don't feel the same
'cause you're so far away
and I miss my baby so...

Don't make promises (to me)
That you cannot keep
Don't say things that you don't really mean
Don't make promises (oh no)
That you cannot keep
Don't say things that you don't really mean

There's no other girl
who I'd let take advantage
of all my time and energy
You claimed you loved me girl
Then you creep behind my back
I thought we were meant to be

You told me that your love was real and now,
and I believed you, I believed you
Now I'm convinced that we don't feel the same
'cause you're so far away
and I miss my baby
C'mon baby

Don't make promises (to me)
that you cannot keep (oh no babe)
Don't say things that you don't really mean, baby
Don't make promises (whoa babe)
That you cannot keep
Don't say things that you don't really mean

Rap
Yo, yo
You got me heated
But I stay undefeated
'Cause I can't take the bull
What what cha gon' do
What I brings it on
Forget the clones its all 'bout me
Now I'm showin' off, gettin' off
Blowin' freakin' minds off
You're petty-
Don't make me flip 'cause you're slippin'
Intermission, I'm ever ready, servin' whippins
It's like- oh no what you lyin' 'bout D.L.- is all out
You can't get wit it so quit your illigit
No doubt, 'bout it, word is bond
I'm lethal, can't nothin' get past me but weak skon
I remain jiggy with the illiest flow
So niggas wise up and act like you know
You tried to play me,
Shelene ain't havin' it, Tyrese ain't havin' it
So sing your song, make 'em never forget
Don't promise if you can't deliver
How you figure
Now I'm steamin', I got you trippin'
In your scheme- what

Don't make promises (don't make 'em)
That you cannot keep (oh no babe)
Don't say things that you don't really mean
Don't make promises
That you cannot keep
Don't say things that you don't really mean

Don't make promises
That you cannot keep
Don't say things that you don't really mean
Don't make promises
That you cannot keep
Don't say things that you don't really mean

Fade until end
