GROWN MAN LOVE [INTRO – low bass, attitude] I know what I want. I want a love that's mine. All mine. No games. No lies. No fixing grown-ass men. If that's asking too much... You're not the one I'm asking. [VERSE 1] I've done the almost, done the lies, Done wiping tears from tired eyes. Done making excuses, making it work, For somebody who couldn't see what I'm worth. I don't need another project, Don't need a man to raise. I'm not your mama, not your therapist, Go fix your fucking ways. I want a man who comes in honest, Who's got his own shit straight. I'm looking for a life to build, Not another mess to save. [PRE-CHORUS] If you want me, come honest. Come steady. Come true. I know what the hell I bring, So I expect it from you. Don't tell me that you came for me If that's just another line. If you say that I'm your only one, Then fucking make me the only one. [CHORUS] I want a love all my own, A grown-ass love I can call home. No secret nights, no alibis, No fake-ass games, no pretty lies. I want a hand I can trust, A man who knows that truth's a must. Someone who builds, don't tear shit up, I've had enough of halfway love. I don't need perfect. I need TRUE. A man who gives what I give too. One heart. One life. One hell of a love. That's what I want. [VERSE 2] I want somebody making plans, Not making alibis. Someone who can tell the fucking truth While looking in my eyes. I want Sunday morning coffee, Late nights making dreams. A man who wants to build a life, Not just crawl into my sheets. No more "maybe." No more games. No more boys with grown-man names. No more loving someone's potential While who he is stays the same. [PRE-CHORUS] Bring me loyalty. Bring me trust. Bring me something built to last. I won't beg a man for honesty. That shit is in my past. [CHORUS] I want a love all my own, A grown-ass love I can call home. No secret nights, no alibis, No fake-ass games, no pretty lies. I want a hand I can trust, A man who knows that truth's a must. Someone who builds, don't tear shit up, I've had enough of halfway love. I don't need perfect. I need TRUE. A man who gives what I give too. One heart. One life. One hell of a love. That's what I want. [RAP BREAK – beat drops HARD] Now let me make this shit clear... I don't chase. I don't share. I don't beg a man to care. If I've gotta investigate you, Your ass shouldn't fucking be there. I'm not checking your phone, I'm checking your CHARACTER. If your words don't match your moves, Boy, there's the fucking door. Don't bring me baggage Then call it "potential." Don't bring me chaos And call it "special." I'm not your mama. I won't raise you. Not your therapist. I won't save you. And I damn sure won't destroy myself Just so love won't have to change you. I want a MAN. Not a mission. Truth without supervision. A grown-ass man who looks at me And already made his decision. No backup plans. No hidden hands. No "baby, please understand." If you need more than one woman To make you feel like a man... YOU AIN'T ONE. I said what I said. Bring peace to my table Or get the fuck from my chair. I know what my love is worth now. And everybody can't afford to be there. [BREAK – music cuts] I don't want a man I have to fix. I want a man I can fucking BUILD WITH. [FINAL CHORUS – FULL POWER] I WANT A LOVE ALL MY OWN, A grown-ass love I can call home. No secret nights, no alibis, No trifling shit, no double lives. I want a man who's proud to stay, Who chooses us every damn day. Someone who builds, someone who grows, And ain't too scared to let it show. I don't need perfect. I need REAL. A love I don't have to beg to feel. One heart. One truth. One life we build. And if you can't give me that... SOMEBODY WILL. [OUTRO – cold, confident] No liars. No players. No projects. No little boys wearing grown-man faces. Come honest. Come loyal. Come ready. Because I'm not looking for somebody to complete me. I'm looking for somebody complete enough to stand beside me. And until he gets here? I'd rather sleep alone than wake up next to another fucking lie.
