Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
My boy's being sus, he was shady enough
But now he's just a shadow
My boy loves his friends like I love my split ends
And by that I mean he cuts 'em off
(What?!)
[Chorus]
My boy, my boy, my boy
Don't love me like he promised
My boy, my boy, my boy
He ain't a man and sure as hell ain't honest
[Verse 2]
My boy's being sus and he don't know how to cuss
He just sounds like he's tryna be his father
(Who are you?)
My boy's an ugly crier, but he's such a pretty liar
And by that I mean he said he'd "change"
[Chorus]
My boy, my boy, my boy
Don't love me like he promised
My boy, my boy, my boy
He ain't a man and sure as hell ain't honest
[Bridge]
My boy (boy), my- my boy, my friends
I love- love- love-
I, I love- love- my split ends
My boy (love, love, love, love)
My- my boy (love, love, love, love, love)
My friends
I love- love- love- love- love- love- love- love-
(Alright dude, go trip over a knife)
[Chorus]
My boy, my boy, my boy
Don't love me like he promised
My boy, my boy, my boy
He ain't a man and sure as hell ain't honest
[Outro]
You want me to be yours, well then you gotta be mine
And if you want a good girl, then goodbye
You want me to be yours, well then you gotta be mine
And if you want a good girl, then goodbye
