ROC - Old Flames and 808s Lyrics

You no good for me but I can't stay away
You got a hold me but I don't feel the strain
Now it's 9:00 am been up since yesterday
All I got is old flames and these 808s
These 808s
Now all I got is old flames and these 808s
These 808s

I can't make this shit up
This ain't regular crush
But all my love in the music
And all these flames getting brushed
But that just add the fuel to it
And now I'm feeling so stupid
Wish I was dreaming so lucid
But now I'm down on my luck
They want me down and out please
Look at it like dropping weight that I really didn't need
Insanity I plead
Cuz who in they right mind would even think of this
Wait I'm trynna right mine so I won't think of this
Love is crazy like do I even believe in this
I'm still young so that gives me some time to think a bit
Plenty fish in the sea and my choices looking like sink or swim
I love the game so much why would I ever think of leaving it

You no good for me but I can't stay away
You got a hold me but I don't feel the strain
Now it's 9:00 am been up since yesterday
All I got is these old flames and 808s

Don't get it twisted
I've never feared no commitment
They say they love me they hate me
And I just can't see the difference
I'm getting tired of the skeezers
They think their access permitted
They really don't get it
My absence is not incentive
You independent yea I heard it all before
Show me a lady who ain't basing her decisions off a post
And a lady who ain't running round the city like a woah
Now that's a keeper
If she ain't with it I don't need her
Her body so Mona Lisa that's a work of art
No need for a re up that's the dopest part
Electric body I swear I can feel the spark
With you
I'm connected
I can't say that for every girl this bond we should perfect it

You no good for me but I can't stay away
You got a hold me but I don't feel the strain
Now it's 9:00 am been up since yesterday
All I got is these old flames and 808s
You no good for me but I can't stay away
You got a hold me but I don't feel the strain
Now it's 9:00 am been up since yesterday
All I got is these old flames and 808s

Girl don't tell me you thinking that man is best for you
Girl he ain't stressing you
Let's take a ride and ima show you what the best could do
Only the best for you
Man that other nigga bugging
He a pest to you
Like girl is he really cuffing
Or arresting you
Lockdown
Girl you too official
All that bs gotta stop now
Claiming he yo king
But lil baby he is not crowned
Royal
Need a shot now
Ima shoot my shot wow
She a lady
They don't make em like you often
You type to make em eat they words
With all the lies they talking

You no good for me but I can't stay away
You got a hold me but I don't feel the strain
Now it's 9:00 am been up since yesterday
All I got is these old flames and 808s
You no good for me but I can't stay away
You got a hold me but I don't feel the strain
Now it's 9:00 am been up since yesterday
All I got is these old flames and 808s
