  • You're driving me away
    Give me a reason to stay
    I want to be lost in you
    But not in this way

    I don't think you quite understand
    Who you have on your hands
    How can you not see
    Just how good for you I am?

    I know that you've been hurt before
    That's why you feel so insecure
    I begged you to let me in
    'Cause I only want to be the cure

    If you don't choose to grow
    We ain't ever gonna know
    Just how good this could be
    I really hoped that this would go somewhere

    Complacency is the worst trait to have
    Are you crazy?
    You ain't ever had, ain't ever had a woman like me
    It is so sad a man like you could be so lazy
    Consistency is the gift to give for free
    And it is key
    To ever keep, to ever keep a woman like me

    All you do is complain
    About decisions you make
    How can I help lift you
    If you refuse to activate
    The life that you truly want?
    I know it's hard, but it's not
    We come from the same place
    But you will never give it up

    It's where they make you feel powerful
    That's why you think I make you feel small
    But that's your projection
    It's not my rejection

    I put my heart on the line
    For the very first time
    Because you asked me to
    And now you've gone and changed your mind

    But loving you was a breakthrough
    I saw what my heart can really do
    Now some other man will get
    The love I have for you
    'Cause you don't care, hmm

    Complacency is the worst trait to have
    Are you crazy?
    You ain't ever had, ain't ever had a woman like me
    It is so sad a man like you could be so lazy
    Consistency is the gift to give for free
    And it is key
    To ever keep, to ever keep a woman like me

    A woman like me
    One more time

    Complacency is the worst trait to have (woman like me, woman like me)
    Are you crazy? (Woman like me)
    You ain't ever had, ain't ever had a woman like me (woman like me)
    It is so sad a man like you could be so lazy (woman like me)
    Consistency is the gift to give for free (woman like me)
