[Intro — Spoken, Emotional] Yeah… Scrappy-Dee. Look, I ain’t asking for perfection. I’m asking for something real. A hundred percent, baby… Not seventy-five, not twenty-five. If you can’t give me your whole heart, Don’t play with mine. SDE… Built Different. [Verse 1 — Melodic Rap] I put my life back together, had to rebuild my soul, Went through fire, walked through darkness, now I’m back in control. Had some nights feeling broken, had some days feeling lost, But I learned what I was worth, had to pay attention to the cost. I ain’t that same man you knew, got a different kind of vision, God been working on my heart, got me moving with precision. I ain’t begging for attention, I ain’t chasing what’s pretend, If you come into my life, better come here as a friend— Who can turn into my lover, be my partner, be my peace, When the whole world gets chaotic, be the calm that never leaves. I got loyalty to give, got a heart that’s been through pain, But I’m never giving everything just to get played again. [Pre-Chorus — R&B Melody] Don’t tell me that you want me If you don’t know what you need. Don’t hold me like you love me If your heart ain’t where you speak. I’ve been putting in the work, I’ve been learning how to heal. If we’re building something lasting, Baby, show me something real. [Chorus — Big R&B Hook / Heavy Bass Drop] 🎶 Don’t play with my heartstrings, Don’t pull me close, then let me go. I need a hundred, give me everything, Real love is all I wanna know. Not seventy-five, not twenty-five, I need that love that’s built to last. If you can’t give me all your heart, Don’t make me put mine in your hands. Don’t play with my heartstrings, I ain’t the man I was before. God’s got a blessing with my name, And I won’t settle anymore. A hundred percent, that’s what I need, A love that’s honest, strong, and free. If you can’t meet me heart to heart, I’ll walk away and let God lead. 🎶 [Verse 2 — Harder Trap Flow] I got my life together, now I’m focused on my mission, I ain’t entertaining mixed signals, half-love, or indecision. I can stand alone, I’m good, I don’t need somebody’s games, I’d rather have an honest goodbye than a love without a name. I know what I bring to the table, I got scars, but I got growth, I learned how to keep my word, learned to stand up for my oath. I’m a man who’s still evolving, still got work left to do, But if I give my heart completely, I’m expecting truth from you. No more running after people who don’t know if they belong, No more trying to make a right love out of something going wrong. I ain’t perfect, never claimed it, but my intentions gonna show, When a man is really ready, he makes room for love to grow. God, prepare me for the woman who’s prepared to walk beside me, Not somebody who will use me, then turn around and deny me. Let her love me through the seasons, let me love her through them too, A hundred percent commitment—that’s the promise we’ll pursue. [Pre-Chorus — R&B, Softer Delivery] Don’t tell me that you miss me Just because you’re feeling low. Don’t come reaching for my heart If you’re not ready for it to grow. I’ve been praying for a love That don’t disappear with rain. Someone who will choose me daily, Not just when it’s convenient. [Chorus — Full Beat, Layered Vocals] Don’t play with my heartstrings, Don’t pull me close, then let me go. I need a hundred, give me everything, Real love is all I wanna know. Not seventy-five, not twenty-five, I need that love that’s built to last. If you can’t give me all your heart, Don’t make me put mine in your hands. Don’t play with my heartstrings, I ain’t the man I was before. God’s got a blessing with my name, And I won’t settle anymore. A hundred percent, that’s what I need, A love that’s honest, strong, and free. If you can’t meet me heart to heart, I’ll walk away and let God lead. [Bridge — Emotional R&B / Piano and Guitar] Maybe she’s praying for me somewhere, Maybe God’s preparing her heart. Maybe we’re both doing the healing Before He brings our worlds to start. I don’t need a perfect woman, I need a woman who is true. Someone who will stand beside me, While I stand beside her too. No more half-love, no more guessing, No more breaking just to stay. If it’s meant to be a blessing, God will make a righteous way. And when I find that woman, I’ma cherish what we build. Give her honesty and passion, Give her love that’s strong and real. [Verse 3 — Scrappy-Dee Signature Flow] I’m not looking for a trophy, I’m not searching for a show, I’m looking for that kind of love that gives us room to grow. Someone who can laugh beside me, tell the truth when times get rough, Someone who knows that real commitment ain’t just saying pretty stuff. We can build a home together, put our dreams up in the sky, Keep our faith when storms are coming, never let our purpose die. I will listen when she’s hurting, she can tell me what she needs, That’s the kind of hundred-percent love that grows from honesty.
