Five Reasons Why I'm Single

V6

[Intro – Spoken Word] People always ask me, “Why you still single?” Like being single means something’s wrong. Nah… I just know what I’m looking for. And I refuse to settle just because I don’t want to be alone. I got five reasons. Listen. [Verse 1] Number one — Respect, when you talk to me, We can disagree without disrespecting me. I’ll respect your heart, you respect mine, We don’t cross boundaries just to win every time. Number two — Loyalty, when I’m not around, Same love in the room when I’m out of town. Don’t entertain something that could tear us apart, If you say that you’re with me, then protect what we got. [Pre-Chorus] I’m not looking for perfect, I’m looking for something real. Someone who understands How a healthy love should feel. [Chorus – Soulful Female Vocal] Five reasons why I’m single, I won’t settle just to say I got somebody. Respect, loyalty, peace, support, honesty, If we can’t build on those five, Then being single’s alright with me. [Verse 2] Number three — Peace, I’ve had enough stress, Home should be a place where your spirit can rest. Every conversation shouldn’t turn into war, If we love one another, what we fighting for? Number four — Support, be on my team, I’ll water your goals, you water my dreams. When the money gets low or the pressure gets high, Don’t disappear when it’s time to stand by my side. [Verse 3] Number five — Honesty, tell me the truth, Even when the truth ain’t comfortable to you. A beautiful lie can destroy something strong, But an honest conversation can help us move on. I don’t need perfection, everybody got flaws, I need communication when we hit those walls. I’m too grown for games, too wise for pretend, I’m looking for a partner, lover, and friend. [Bridge – Spoken Word / Beat Drops] See, being single isn’t loneliness. Sometimes being single means standards. I’m not asking somebody to give me something I’m unwilling to give them. Respect. I’ll give it. Loyalty. I’ll give it. Peace. I’ll bring it. Support. I’ll show it. Honesty. You’ll get it. So I’m not asking for too much. I’m asking for reciprocity. [Final Chorus – Full Choir/Soul Harmonies] Five reasons why I’m single, And I’m not changing what I believe. Respect and loyalty, Peace and support, And always keep it honest with me. I’d rather wait for something real Than lose myself chasing company. Those five things are the foundation— And until then… Being single’s alright with me. [Outro – Spoken] Don’t get into a relationship just because you’re tired of being alone. Get into one when two people are ready to build something worth protecting. Respect. Loyalty. Peace. Support. Honesty. That’s the five. WCKK 1960 TM.
