Lyrics
First of the month and you got an attitude
Expressing surprise at the partner's unusual attitude on the first day of the month.
I'm not used to you being this rude
Not accustomed to the partner's rudeness.
Baby why don't you just dance and let it go
Suggesting the partner should dance and let go of negativity.
(dance and let it go)
Reiteration of the advice to dance and let go.
Sh*t I hear you have another excuse you said
Noting the partner's tendency to make excuses.
If I was you I wouldn't know what to do
Speculating on the partner's uncertainty if in the same situation.
Every chapter every page in this book is all that it's not
Reflecting on the imperfections and shortcomings in the relationship.
You don't want, me to leave
Partner does not want the speaker to leave.
But I'm too hard to handle
Speaker acknowledges being challenging to handle.
You don't know, I was here
Indicating the partner's lack of awareness of the speaker's presence.
Burning broken candles
Describing a difficult and strained situation.
Shouldn't be, in your arms, it'll fall
Warning against being in the partner's arms as it may lead to a downfall.
But its all that it wasn't
Acknowledging the past, accepting it as part of the relationship.
Why you calling my phone
Questioning why the partner is calling when the speaker won't answer.
Know I'll never answer
Commitment to not responding to the partner's calls.
What I get for falling in, love with a cancer
Expressing regret for falling in love with someone problematic ("cancer").
Now you with, another one, I'm better than
Observing the partner with someone else but claiming superiority.
But I'm all that he's not
Asserting that the speaker possesses qualities the new partner lacks.
I let you in my heart and you played in my face
Recalling a past betrayal where the partner played with the speaker's feelings.
Take it too far just to get away
Suggesting that the partner went to extreme lengths to escape the relationship.
Wasted, all those boss moves you feel ashamed of, stay dangerous
Reminding the partner of regrettable actions and advising them to stay vigilant.
I can't save you
Expressing an inability to rescue or help the partner.
Jaded, these girls ain't tryna waste me
Feeling worn out by relationships where others try to deceive the speaker.
Angels, from the heavens straight to the stages
Describing an idealized image of the partner as angelic.
You heard the stories seen the storie, now you're tryna page me
Referencing past experiences and the partner's attempt to reconnect.
It broke my heart to see you with a lame one
Expressing emotional pain at seeing the partner with someone less impressive.
I keep two under each arm I had to let you go
Deciding to let go of the partner despite having other options.
You left me scarred last time I kept you close
Referring to emotional scars from the previous relationship.
If you ain't wanna play your part you should've let me know
Suggesting that honesty about intentions could have avoided the pain.
It's all that it's not
Reiteration of the imperfections and shortcomings in the relationship.
You don't want, me to leave

But I'm too hard to handle
