"Power Back" lyrics
(from "Think Like A Man Too" soundtrack)
I think it's funny all the games you play
But I don't play with you
So why you choose to play with me that way?
All I do is treat you with the utmost
I need the same
So if you're looking for that ratchetness
Don't look my way
Baby, I'ma love you
And you ain't gotta love me back
I'll do everything I say I do for you
To show my love just can't be matched
So when you're out late night throwing up them bills
The more you do that B.S., the more I keep it real
Go ahead and lose yourself, I'ma stay intact
If it's one thing men respect, it's when we don't react
That's that power back
He used to stay gone, now he's coming home
That's that power back
And when I stop calling, he's on my phone
That's that power back
And when it seems I don't care, he's right there
That's that power back
I'll just sit back and watch you do it to yourself
That's that power back
I love you too much to ever leave you, oh oh oh
I love me too much to wanna be you, oh oh no
Said the clock strikes at least two times in a day, yeah yeah
And when we're right, we're unbreakable
Just need some time to get us back in love
Baby, I'ma love you
And you ain't gotta love me back (Oh, oh yeah)
I'll do everything I say I do for you
To show my love just can't be matched
So when you're out late night throwing up them bills
The more you do that B.S., the more I keep it real
Go ahead and lose yourself, I'ma stay intact
If it's one thing men respect, it's when we don't react
That's that power back
He used to stay gone, now he's coming home
That's that power back
And when I stop calling, he's on my phone
That's that power back
And when it seems I don't care, he's right there
That's that power back
I'll just sit back and watch you do it to yourself
That's that power back
I gave you everything that you wanted
Gave everything that you could need
I won't ever ask you for nothing
But you're love is what I need
He used to stay gone, now he's coming home
That's that power back
And when I stop calling, he's on my phone
That's that power back
And when it seems I don't care, he's right there
That's that power back
I'll just sit back and watch you do it to yourself
That's that power back
But I don't play with you
So why you choose to play with me that way?
All I do is treat you with the utmost
I need the same
So if you're looking for that ratchetness
Don't look my way
Baby, I'ma love you
And you ain't gotta love me back
I'll do everything I say I do for you
To show my love just can't be matched
So when you're out late night throwing up them bills
The more you do that B.S., the more I keep it real
Go ahead and lose yourself, I'ma stay intact
If it's one thing men respect, it's when we don't react
That's that power back
He used to stay gone, now he's coming home
That's that power back
And when I stop calling, he's on my phone
That's that power back
And when it seems I don't care, he's right there
That's that power back
I'll just sit back and watch you do it to yourself
That's that power back
I love you too much to ever leave you, oh oh oh
I love me too much to wanna be you, oh oh no

That's that power back
And when it seems I don't care, he's right there
That's that power back
I'll just sit back and watch you do it to yourself
That's that power back
