Not Today Lyrics - Love & Life - Mary J Blige

This is another one of those heartbreak hotel joints for the ladies 

Why won't you grow up and be a man someday? 

I can't believe that you're still playin' silly games 

Now why do I put up with all this child's play? 

Now if your word is all you have then you ain't worth a damn thing 

Promises you told me every day 

That you made you never ever kept 

By me, I really want to believe 

But not today, not today, not today, not today 

You're the worst, I can't even depend on you 

You say a lot of good things but somethin' else you always do 

Be a man of your word, try to love something other than you 

But now you can be on your way 'cause I don't want you to stay

Promises, promises 'bout our house, 'bout the kids 

Lifestyle we would live, who the fuck you really is? 

In my face all the time, spittin' line after line 

Broke down my wall and you got in my mind 

You's a fake, shoulda known all the signs I was shown 

Believed what I saw and your cover was blown 

Breakup, leave, make up, please 

You's a magician, all them tricks up your sleeve 

Had me for a minute, I was in it, you played good 

But I'ma get you, gotta get it, so I make moves 

And I'ma leave you where you at dog, chill 

Go back to square one, wait for somethin' real 

Selfish nigga, could have helped you, nigga 

Usually know betta but I felt you, nigga 

I guess gettin' in my head was a part of the plan 

'Cause in reality the only thing you givin' me is

Promises you told me every day 

That you made you never ever kept 

By me, I really want to believe 

But not today, not today, not today, not today 

Promises you told me every day 

That you made you never ever kept 

By me, I really want to believe 

But not today, not today, not today, not today 

Don't let him waste your time, girl 

He's only tellin' lies, girl 

And when he apologizes 

Don't be believing that man 

'Cause he gon' do it again and again 

Promises you told me every day 

That you made you never ever kept 

By me, I really want to believe 

But not today, not today, not today, not today
