[Intro]
Uh, friends, uh
[Chorus]
Home boys and some of them we we wish we never knew at all
Home girls said, some of them we wish we never knew at all
Home boys and some of them we we wish we never knew at all
Home girls said, some of them we wish we never knew at all
Home boys and some of them we we wish we never knew at all
Home girls said, some of them we wish we never knew at all
[Layer 1]
I'm in the kitchen, I'm cooking and mixing and fixing the sauces and I'll call you back
Running around in the city, I'm running I like it, I'm busy so I'll call you back
Flipping the switches and bitches gon' get in your feelings and dealings, I'll call you back
Never the life of the party but I'll get it started, I been this and I'll call you back
[Chorus]
Home boys and some of them we we wish we never knew at all
Home girls said, some of them we wish we never knew at all
Home boys and some of them we we wish we never knew at all
Home girls said, some of them we wish we never knew at all
Home boys and some of them we we wish we never knew at all
Home girls said, some of them we wish we never knew at all

Gon' get in your feelings
Friends, it's a word we use every day
But most of the time we use it in the wrong way
(I'll call you...)
Friends, it's a word we use every day
But most of the time we use it in the wrong way
(I'll call you...)
Friends, it's a word we use every day
But most of the time we use it in the wrong way
(I'll call you...)
Friends, it's a word we use every day
But most of the time we use it in the wrong way

(Gon' get in your feelings)
You don't believe in my love
You're missing a good thing
(Gon' get in your feelings)
Because I'm genuine, I'm genuine
If you don't believe in my love
(Gon' get in your feelings)
You're missing a good thing
Because I'm genuine, I'm genuine
(Gon' get in your feelings)
[Bridge]
Ain't no need to
Ain't no need to worry
Ain't no need to
Ain't no need to fear
(Gon' get in your feelings)
Ain't no need to
Ain't no need to worry
Ain't no need to
Ain't no need to
Ain't no need to
Ain't no need to
(Gon' get in your feelings)
