Galaxy Lyrics

[Verse 1: Chloe]
You've been tryna doubt me
You've been tryna out me
You've been tryna say stuff
I've been tryna pray up
Why you tryna prey now?
Predator away now
There's this tangled mess of
Get out of my head, oh

[Pre-Chorus: Chloe]
'Cause I don't play like that, play like that
I don't need all that, have it back
And now I'm moving on, now I'm moving on
Moving on, now I'm moving on
Why you play like that, roll like that?
You hold me back, let go of that
Moving on, now I'm moving on
Moving on

[Chorus: Chloe & Halle]
I'ma throw you back into the galaxy
I'ma throw you back into the galaxy
I'ma throw you back into the—
I'ma throw you back into the galaxy
[Post-Chorus: Both]
Fly with the stars, yeah, we'll be far away
See if you're my love, only love for you
Wonderful night, won't you float far away
Leave with my love, only love for you

[Verse 2: Halle]
You've been tryna break me
You've been tryna shake me
But like the earth, I'm steady
I won't lose it
And time and time again you say my name
But if you wanna go then we can take it up to space
Baby, darlin', you should be ashamed
I'ma have you walkin' deep into the milky way, hey, hey

[Pre-Chorus: Chloe, Halle & Both]
'Cause I don't play like that, play like that (Why you play like that?)
I don't need all that, have it back (Need all that)
And now I'm moving on, now I'm moving on (Movin' on)
Moving on, now I'm moving on (On)
Why you play like that, roll like that?
You hold me back, let go of that

Moving on, now I'm moving on (On)
Moving on
[Chorus: Both]
I'ma throw you back into the galaxy
I'ma throw you back into the galaxy
I'ma throw you back into the—
I'ma throw you back into the galaxy

[Post-Chorus: Both]
Fly with the stars, yeah, we'll be far away
See if you're my love, only love for you
Wonderful night, won't you float far away
Leave with my love, only love for you
