Dangerous

Intro (spoken / melodic hum) Yeah… I know better… Still here though. Verse 1 2 AM, your name lightin’ my phone, I should let it ring but I don’t, You say you miss me, say you alone, But I know how this go. Pretty face, heartbreak skin, You don’t fall in love, you collect men, I tell myself “don’t go again”… Next thing I know I’m pulling in. Pre-Chorus You don’t love me, you love what I give, Attention, time, all the ways I live, I see the truth when I’m sober, But when you touch me it’s over. Chorus She dangerous, yeah I know, Still I pull up every time you call my phone, She dangerous, heart on froze, She take what she want then she gone, she gone. I say I’m done but I stay, Say I’m leaving but I don’t move away, She dangerous… And I love it even though I hate it. Verse 2 You got a way of sayin’ my name, Make me feel like I’m not replaceable, But the truth hurt more than the game, ‘Cause I know I’m just temporary to you. Designer bag, foreign nights, I pay the price just to feel alright, You don’t need love, you need control, And I give it up just to hold you close. Pre-Chorus You don’t promise nothin’, just moments, Say “be patient” while you focus, Every sign say walk away, But I stay every time you say “stay”. (Verse 3) I told my brothers I was done for real this time, Deleted your number, swore I cleared my mind, But your shadow still live in my space, Every song I play got your face. You only hit me when the city asleep, When your options gone and your pride get weak, Say you “just checking,” say it’s not that deep, But you in my bed by the end of the week. You know my weak spots, you press ‘em on purpose, Say my name slow like you tryna hurt me, Say “you different,” but your tone uncertain, I feel used… still I don’t desert it. I been loving you quiet, suffering loud, Acting unbothered when you not around, You give me just enough to stay addicted, Then disappear when I start feeling lifted. I read your eyes, they don’t say forever, They say “right now” and “don’t ask never,” I keep hoping you gon’ change your ways, But hope been lying to me for days. I know I’m a placeholder in your life, Still I show up every call of the night, You don’t need saving, you don’t need fixing, You just need someone willing to listen… And damn— That someone always me.I hear your voice and my spine go weak, You don’t say much, but you don’t gotta speak, You pull me in like you need relief, Then push me back when you feel complete. You say “don’t catch feelings,” I already did, Tried to play solid, but I’m not that him, You treat my heart like a place to visit, Never unpack, never stay, just dip. I tell myself this the last time, Last drink, last text, last line, But you show up lookin’ like closure, And I fold every single time. You don’t mean harm, but you reckless, You love the effect, not the effort, You take what you need in the moment, Then leave me alone with the message. If I’m being real, I don’t need this pain, But silence hurt more when you go away, So I answer calls I should let fade, ‘Cause lonely sound worse than your mistakes. I know how this story end, Still act surprised when it break me again, I don’t chase love, I chase the feeling Of when you pretend I’m more than a friend… Yeah… Just for the night. Chorus She dangerous, yeah I know, Still I pull up every time you call my phone, She dangerous, heart on froze, She take what she want then she gone, she gone. I say I’m done but I stay, Say I’m leaving but I don’t move away, She dangerous… And I love it even though I hate it. Bridge (half-sung / rap-sung) Why I keep lettin’ you in when I know better? Why I keep breakin’ myself just to hold you together? You don’t even lie no more, you just don’t explain, And I fill in the blanks with my pain. Break (drop instruments) If I’m honest… I don’t want peace, I want you. Final Chorus (lower, more emotional) She dangerous, I admit it, I see the knife but I still get close to it, She dangerous, and I’m with it, Even knowing how this end, I’m in it. Say my heart don’t deserve this pain, But it beat different when you say my name, She dangerous… Yeah, she dangerous. Outro I know better… Still here though
