Say What You Want
Unwavering Love: Adina Howard's Anthem to Defying Doubt
Lyrics
Adina Howard â?? say what you want
Introduction to the song title, "Say What You Want" by Adina Howard.
Now you've done
Acknowledging that something has been done or said.
Told me all about his past
Learning about the romantic history of a partner.
Reminding me that it won't last
Being reminded that the relationship may not last.
And how I should just move on
Suggested advice to move on from the past relationship.
You're tryin' to say you're doin' me a favor
Perceived attempt to portray a helpful gesture, but it's seen as insincere.
When in all honesty gesture hater
Accusation of insincerity, implying a negative motive.
Cause you don't have no one to love you like I do
Asserting that the speaker's love is unique and unmatched.
You can say what you want
Encouragement to express opinions, even if negative.
But I don't believe
Expressing skepticism and disbelief in the words spoken.
One word you said
Doubt about the sincerity of the previous statements.
To make me think
Challenge to provide convincing reasons for belief.
I understand that game of confusion
Acknowledgment of the complexity of the situation, possibly involving deceit.
You give me lead than you choosin'
Accusation of leading on and making choices that are confusing.
Once I'm out of the doe
Reference to leaving a place or situation.
You won't move ass enough to get you some
Implying the person won't take action to improve their situation.
Some of that same â?¦. you told me to â?¦.
Referring to advice given but not following it themselves.
But it ain't goin' that way
Denial of following the suggested path.
Trayin' ... another day
Expressing determination to continue despite difficulties.
You can say what you want
Reiteration that opinions can be expressed freely.
I ain't goin' no way
Asserting that the speaker won't leave the situation.
So in addition to what I've said
Adding to the previous statements.
You're never gonna make it to his bâ?¦
Stating a belief that someone won't reach a particular destination.
So give it up and
Encouragement to stop discussing a particular topic.
Get it out of my ear
Request to stop talking about a specific issue.
Cause I pick game
Claiming to understand the strategies or tactics used.
When you said
Recalling previous statements made by the other person.
That all man are all the same
Disagreeing with a generalization about all men.
So I told you to leave him
Advising someone to leave their partner.
I told you to leave him
Repetition of advice to leave the partner.
He ain't no good for you
Opinion about the partner being unsuitable.
He ain't nothin' but a doll
Characterization of the partner as insignificant.
And he's always out with his boys
Claiming that the partner spends time with friends rather than the speaker.
You can't get me to leave
Declining to be influenced to change beliefs or leave the situation.
Or change what I believe
Reaffirmation of personal convictions.
