the gym

Angie Stone

It s like I m sweatin you just for second place
I m on a chase for love, but there ain t a race
Heavy on my heart, my soul, mind and body
Take it easy, I m out of shape
And the weight is starting to wear me down
Like a dumb-dumbbell, I stuck around
Addin pound after pound, I was in love with him
Hey, but this ain t workin out, it s nothing like the gym

You outta line, ain t no forgiving this
Can t work this out, I m declining your membership
I m too fit for your games, you can t keep playing those
This ain t gon work out with him, it s nothing like the gym
Tryin to carry your baggage, our chances are slim
I maxed out on the weight, making no more attempts
Why he keep t?sting my strength?
This ain t gon work out with him, it s nothing like the gym

W? on the outs again and it s stretchin thin
Runnin out of patience, no second wind
She s just a friend, don t jump to conclusions
How much further you want me to bend?
Either way, you re startin to wear me down
I don t know why I still stick around
Girl, you sweat me so tough, feels like I m getting thin
This ain t gon work out again, it s nothin like the gym

You outta line, ain t no forgiving this
Can t work this out, I m declining your membership
I m too fit for your games, you can t keep playing those
This ain t gon work out with him, it s nothing like the gym
Tryin to carry your baggage, our chances are slim
I maxed out on the weight, making no more attempts
Why he keep testing my strength?
This ain t gon work out with him, it s nothing like the gym

You chewed me off, you tracked my pace
Then when it s time for you to spot me, you run away
Then you got the nerve to say
Coaches don t play, yeah, right (You know you a)
You a spectator, instigator
Watchin me go harder than you to save us
I had to cut you loose
My troubles are over

You outta line, ain t no forgiving this
Can t work this out, I m declining your membership
I m too fit for your games, you can t keep playing those
This ain t gon work out with him, it s nothing like the gym
Tryin to carry your baggage, our chances are slim
I maxed out on the weight, making no more attempts
Why he keep testing my strength?
This ain t gon work out with him, it s nothing like the gym

Why he keep testing my strength?
( Cause my heart can t lift what you want me to carry)
Oh, yeah
