The Recipe

I better fall back, I don't mean to mislead her
But if she believe every word that I said
I take it all back, she playin' follow the leader
But that doesn't mean that I ain't gotta leave her, oh no

She say she could give me what I need
I should make her more than company
I swear she got that fire
But does it compare to Cali? No

She's so happy when she's next to me
Thought she had me, baby really thought she had me
Now she's fiendin' for the rest of me (rest of me)
But that isn't in the recipe

Let it go, let it go, girl
This ain't what you want and you know
We could never be
I don't care how it feels
This could never be real and you know
That isn't in the recipe

Let it go, let it go, girl
This ain't what you want and you know
We could never be
I don't care how it feels
This could never be real and you know (ay)

We hit a rhythm, no control of emotion
The more time we spend playin' house with no rhythm
The more you hate it, you're a real one, speak of devotion
Told 'em to leave and came lookin' for me

I wonder, di-did I stutter when I told her ass
None of this was ever meant to last?
When I'm in it, it's that fire
But does it compare to Cali? No

She's so happy when she's next to me
Thought she had me, baby really thought she had me
Now she's fiendin' for the rest of me
But that isn't in the recipe

Let it go, let it go, girl
This ain't what you want and you know
Oh, we could never be
I don't care how it feels
This could never be real and you know
This ain't the recipe

Let it go, let it go, girl
This ain't what you want and you know
We could never be
I don't care how it feels
This could never be real and you know

Oh, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it...
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it...
