Say What You Mean Lyrics

[Intro]
Boy, say what you mean

[Verse 1]
Two weeks ago, said you wanted to leave (Wanted to leave)
After arguing, we made love in the sheets (Love in the sheets)
And when I'm alone, those words ring in my head (Head)
I wonder if you really mean what you said

[Pre-Chorus]
Wonder do you really love me?
Do you really, really wanna be here?
Or do you tolerate me?
Dreamin' somewhere else and only sleep here
'Cause I don't wanna be with someone who don't really wanna be here
And if you didn't mean it, then you probably never should repeat it

[Chorus]
Oh, say what you mean
And mean what you say
Say what you mean
And mean what you say
Love works better that way
Oh, say what you mean
And mean what you say
Ooh, say what you mean
And mean what you say
Love works better that way
[Verse 2]
Had my share of heartbreaks, it ain't nothin' new to me
Please don't you waste my time
I cannot read your mind
And whenever it's late night and you're holding me tight
It feels so damn good, but confusing at the same time
I just really need a sign, woah

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me do you really love me?
Do you really, really wanna be here?
Or do you tolerate me?
Dreamin' somewhere else and only sleep here
'Cause I don't wanna be with someone who don't really wanna be here
And if you didn't mean it, then you probably never should repeat it

[Chorus]
Oh, say what you mean
And mean what you say
Say what you mean
And mean what you say
Love works better that way
Oh, say what you mean
And mean what you say
Ooh, say what you mean
And mean what you say
Love works better that way

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Queen Naija say about "Say What You Mean"?
Genius Answer

I was just thinking about certain things and everyday relationship stuff. I got that beat from Deezle, and that was actually one of the last songs I recorded, and we was like, ‘Okay, we got to wrap it up.’ And I was like, ‘Wait, I think I’m going to put this on the album. This is a different feel that I can add to it.’ I just freestyled that one, too.
