Won't Work - IYAMAH

Why you asking questions?

Why you wondering where I am?

Why you wanna always include me in all your plans?

Why you gotta be the one to tell them you’re my man?

You really would just take the time to say that?

Don’t you know the reason why I’m here is cause of me?

I don’t need your money, I stand on my own two feet

Boy, you know I’m independent, yeah, and that’s a fact

That’s the way it’s always been, don’t try to change that

I could be your princess

I could be your queen

And I know, it won’t work with me

Slipping through your fingers, like I don’t see

And I know, it won’t work with me

I like to set my boundaries, so I know where to stop

And so you don’t wear the chances to put me on the top

I don’t need your muscles, baby, open up the shelf

Are you feeling threatened?

Well go find somebody else

I grew up with a single mother, see her as a king

That’s the way I felt, so I’m sticking to the routine

Power to the females, we don’t miss the details

I can see the way that you want me, yeah

I could be your princess

I could be your queen

And I know, it won’t work with me

Slipping through your fingers, like I don’t see

And I know, it won’t work with me

Won’t work, won’t work, no

Won’t work, won’t work, no

Come buy me diamonds, 'cause I like stones

And catch me in silver, never gold

You say I’m cryptic, but that’s just old

I’ma lone soldier, boy

Come buy me diamonds, 'cause I like stones

And catch me in silver, never gold

You say I’m cryptic, boy

Oh, it won’t work with me

And I know I could be your queen

And I know, it won’t work with me

Slipping through your fingers, like I don’t see

And I know, it won’t work

Come buy me diamonds, 'cause I like stones

And catch me in silver, never gold

You say I’m cryptic, boy, but you can’t

Come buy me diamonds, 'cause I like stones

And catch me in silver, never gold

And you’re finna die

Don’t forget it like you’ve never known
