I was always there for you, oh, I was always on time
And I gave you my all, so now you call, I decline
And now I don't know about you, but I know I'm gonna be fine
And I gave you my all, so now you call
Oh, you think that you're sick and you're runnin'
Now you're bellin' up my line like an ambulance
Say, "Fam, fam-a-lam," now I'm done with it
Not a 9-9-9, no emergency
Baby, no, no, no, I ain't missin' you
I'ma block you soon, you're a bugaboo, baby
Bagaman come unavailable
And I know I'm gonna find myself a better you
Now you're stressed out 'cause you needed me
Goin' all out 'cause you need the freak
This ship is done sailed, I don't need you, B
No, you had a good girl, yeah, baby
I was always there for you, oh, I was always on time
And I gave you my all, so now you call, I decline
And now I don't know about you, but I know I'm gonna be fine
And I gave you my all, so now you call, I decline
Hold up, wait, hear me now
And Beyoncé said, "Irreplaceable"
I was holdin' out, takin' you
You was their mother, what you take me for?
Now you stressed out 'cause you needed me
Goin' all out 'cause you need the freak
This ship done sailed, I don't need you, B, no
You had a good girl, yeah, baby
I was always there for you, oh, I was always on time
And I gave you my all, so now you call, I decline
And now I don't know about you, but I know I'm gonna be fine
And I gave you my all, so now you call, I decline
Now, baby, you don't get to play me, nah-nah, nah
Now, baby, oh, when you call, I decline
Now, baby, you don't get to play me, nah
No, baby, oh, when you call, I decline
Baby, when you call, I just want to say, "I'm sorry"
Not gonna lie and say that I've not been actin' funny
But if I do it again, then you can leave me hangin'
Just give me one try, mmm, yeah
Baby, I was always there for you, no, I was always on time
And I gave you my all, so now you call, I decline
And now I don't know about you, but I know I'm gonna be fine
And I gave you my all, so now you call, I decline
Now, baby, you don't get to play me, nah-nah
Now, oh, when you call, I decline
Now baby, you don't get to play me, nah-nah
Yeah, oh, when you call, I decline
Now, baby, you don't get to play me, no
Now, baby, oh, when you call, I decline
Now, baby, you don't get to play me, nah
Now, baby, oh, when you call, I decline
