Lyrics-
How many times do I have to say
To get away-get gone
Flip your shit past another lasses
Humble dwelling
You got your game, made your shot, and you got away
With a lot, but I'm not turned-on
So put away that meat you're selling
Cuz I do know what's good for me-
And I've done what I could for you
But you're not benefiting, and yet I'm sitting
Singing again, sing, sing again
How can I deal with this, if he won't get with this
M'I gonna heal from this; he won't admit to it
Nothing to figure out; I gotta get him out
It's time the truth was out that he don't give a
Shit about me
How many times can it escalate
Till it elevates to a place I can't breathe?
And I must decide, if you must deride
That I'm much obliged to up and go
I'll idealize, then realize that it's no
Sacrifice, because the price is paid, and
There's nothing left to grieve
Fuckin go-
Cuz I've done what I could for you, and I do know what's
Good for me and I'm not benefiting, instead
I'm sitting singing again, singing again, singing again,
Sing, sing, sing again
How can I deal with this, if he won't get with this
M'I gonna heal from this; he won't admit to it
Nothing to figure out; I gotta get him out
It's time the truth was out that he don't give a
Shit about me

[abbyzuppe]

One of my favorite albums of all time!

I sent this to my user man but... of course, he didn't hear it. Cuz I didn't back it up SOLID at first, I guess. Goodbye Tristen. It's okay if you can't hear and listen. I'll be fine.

[robinkaniewski]

[muna]

'Cause I do know what's good for me
And I've done what I could for you
But you're not benefiting...

[josephcharbonneau]

I love that little flutter in your voice angel!!! 😍

[jackwebster]

Best female artist of the 21st century!

[Valolopez]

You got your game, made your shot, and you got away
With a lot, but I'm not turned-on
So put away that meat you're selling

Ohhh my lord, this song is the story of my relationship with my narcissistic ex... Took about 3 1/2 years for him to finally 'flip his shit past another lass's humble dwelling'
After I'd been telling him to get the F out for just about that long.

Looking back, I was such a naive, foolish idiot. Let this guy move in way too soon {because sex, of course🙄}. So yeah, things were really good until they SOOO weren't.

Honestly, I had never even heard of narcissistic relationships until after I looked it up online. Let's just say it was quite the eye-opener😱

And here's a word of advice that may benefit someone in the future: Please, please I implore you, PLEASE look into the legalities of living with a significant other. I know that nobody wants to do this cuz it's 'unromantic', same as not wanting a prenup, but just trust me on this one, you won't regret it.

Because when it all became a shitshow with my former bf, all I thought I had to do was ask him to move out... I mean, his name wasn't on the lease so how hard could it be, right?!?? Yeah,

In the US state I'm in, the laws are that anyone who stays at a residence long enough to receive mail addressed to them is for all intents and purposes considered to be a legal 'resident' at that address.
So much for all those silly thoughts about having the cops remove my ex for trespassing on the property at that point, HA!! After all, how could a 'resident' possibly be trespassing?!

In the end, I'll never understand how someone I supposedly loved and who said they loved me could just ignore the countless times I FIRST asked politely and when that didn't work, escalated to literally crying, begging and pleading for them to move out for the sake of my sanity... and they just blew it off like my requests meant nothing, and continued to stay there for years after.

Lesson learned, never again. Thank you Fiona💜💚💙♥️

This song has got to be about a narcissist ex.

[doomtints]

This appears to be a slightly different mix than what is on the album. Where did this version really come from?

[susanh]

Ever since I got the two Covid shots on my left arm I've been having pain, inability to move it, heat, stiffness., Fing go cuz I do know what's good for me, it's time the truth, that they don't give a shot about me.
