Album Version

I’m doing nothing
cause then at least I’m doing nothing wrong
And I’m gonna stay here on my own
And turn up my telephone
If nothings gained and nothings won

And you can tell ’em, yeah, you can say whatever
I don’t care, yeh, and if you wanna play it cool
Then I got news for you
It’s getting hotter, hotter over here

So when I speak listen this is my decision
And you keep on messing up the words (oh, oh, oh)
So when I speak listen cause you keep on pushing
Like I need permission to be heard (oh, oh, oh)
I’m gonna lift it, lift it higher
I’m gonna lift it, lift it higher
So when I speak listen this is my decision
And you keep on messing up the words

I’m getting closer, I’m moving in
And I think you know
Cause I am sick of playing games and
I’m not gonna say no names
But you will know who to blame

So you can tell (tell), yeah, you can go ahead
And pull a straight cause I am in this shit myself
And I do not need your help, I’m gonna do this do right

o when I speak listen this is my decision
And you keep on messing up the words (oh, oh, oh)
So when I speak listen cause you keep on pushing
Like I need permission to be heard (oh, oh, oh)
I’m gonna lift it, lift it higher
I’m gonna lift it, lift it higher
So when I speak listen this is my decision
And you keep on messing up the words

(I’m gonna lift it, lift it)
When you go higher I go higher
(I’m gonna lift it, lift it)
Yeah, you can try but I go higher
(I’m gonna lift it, lift it)
The only thing boy
(I’m gonna lift it, lift it)
That you can do is listen, so listen

So when I speak listen this is my decision (yeah, yeah)
And you keep on messing up the words (oh, oh, oh)
(Keep on messing up your words)
So when I speak listen cause you keep on pushing
Like I need permission to be heard (oh, oh, oh)
I’m gonna lift it, lift it higher
I’m gonna lift it, lift it higher
So when I speak listen this is my decision (oh)
And you keep on messing up the words

Hey, hey
She said I’m messing up the words, but this ain’t what I heard
I get it first hand, tryna push me to the curb
Just what I deserve, I get on the nerves
Damn she got curves all over this hers
I talk, she talk, but then it’s my fault
When I’m leaving she be tripping, I did nothing at all
Put me on the mission, tryna listen to the broad
Saying I got a feeling like she’s speaking to the wall
No understanding shawty demanding
Y’all can spin a rack, got my head in her bandage
Girl follow your mouth, I’ll be taking the advantage
Say you sick of my rap, then I hear

So when I speak listen this is my decision
(Yeah, yeah)
And you keep on messing up the words
(Keep on messing up your words) (oh, oh, oh)
So when I speak listen cause you keep on pushing
Like I need permission to be heard (oh, oh, oh)
I’m gonna lift to lift it higher
I’m gonna lift to lift it higher
So when I speak listen this is my decision (oh)
And you keep on messing up the words
