Can't Be Friends
Breaking Free: Dodging Love's BulletLyrics
I dodged a bullet
Expressing relief for narrowly avoiding a negative situation or consequence
I just thought that you should know it
Informing the person of narrowly avoiding trouble or harm
You stunt on the Gram like you own it
Portraying an extravagant lifestyle on social media as if owning it
I turned my back on you
Turning away from the person mentioned
Now you sittin' lonely
Currently feeling isolated and alone
Use to be cool now you actin' funny
Previously friendly, but now exhibiting strange or unusual behavior
Really thought you would be perfect for me
Believed the person was an ideal match
Boy you desperate now you all up on me
The person is now overly eager or needy
Steady playin' with me like I'm a dummy
Playing with emotions or treating as unintelligent
Now that you're lonely you're callin' my phone
Attempting to reconnect now that they're feeling lonely
I don't need your love I'm good on my own
Declaring independence from needing the person's love
Now that you're lonely you're callin' my phone
Reiteration of not needing the person's love
I don't need your love I'm good on my own
-No we can't be friends
Firmly stating that a friendship is no longer possible
No we can't be friends, can't be friends no more
Reiterating that a friendship is impossible anymore
Now that you're lonely you're callin' my phone
Trying to reconnect now that they're feeling lonely
I don't need your love I'm good on my own
Asserting self-sufficiency in terms of love
No more tears
No more tears left to cry
I'm all cried out
Emotionally exhausted and drained
If this was real I would have no doubts I'm movin' on now
If the relationship were genuine, there wouldn’t be doubts, moving on now
The lessons been learned
Learning from the experience
If you was the one I wouldn't feel burned
If the person was the right one, there wouldn’t be hurt feelings
Let's not play games and fall in that trap
Avoiding manipulation and games in the relationship
Ran up on love it wasn't all that
Love wasn’t as expected or fulfilling
Something about ya
Sensing something distinctive about the person
Baby it's something about ya
There's an inexplicable allure or attraction to the person
Wondering what I would do without ya
Wondering about life without the person
Loving the feeling you giving around ya
Enjoying the positive vibes or energy the person brings
In my heart you was feeling the void
Initially, the person filled an emotional void in the heart
Now I'm startin to get sick of this noise
Beginning to feel tired of the emotional turbulence
Lately I'm bitter and hella annoyed
Recently feeling resentful and highly irritated
Never gon' work I'm not one of the boys
Relationship won’t succeed because they're not one of the stereotypical masculine "boys"
Now that you're lonely you're callin' my phone
Trying to reconnect now that they're feeling lonely
I don't need your love I'm good on my own
Asserting independence from needing the person's love
Now that you're lonely you're callin' my phone
Reiterating independence from needing the person's love
I don't need your love I'm good on my own

Cuz baby we tried that
Confirming that attempting friendship has been tried and failed
No we can't be friends, can't be friends no more
Reaffirming the impossibility of a friendship
Now that you're lonely you're callin' my phone
Attempting to reconnect now that they're feeling lonely
I don't need your love I'm good on my own
Stating self-sufficiency in love
Now that you're lonely you're callin' my phone
