[Intro]

That's what it is, what it is

When you live, tryna keep it low key

MB

Let's get it


[Verse 1: Mattyb]

You know me always finding

Myself in interesting times

Growing up, sharing my stories

Through these intricate rhymes

So check it, I met this dime

She look kinda familiar

But people change with time

And I couldn't remember her

So I struck up a conversation nothing unusual

But after a couple hours I knew feelings

Were mutual and I'm ready to tell everyone

That I know, but she like yo

We should keep it on the low

Oh Oh, i could see through it

And i know how it goes

There's no reason we should

Be tryna distance anyone close

Especially when we just started

Have feelings like those I'll admit

It I was digging her so I just let it go

For a chance at romance

I went along with the plans

But then there was a side of me

That could see how it would end

But then when you get in it

It can kinda get hard to defend against her

Feminine venom has got me

Forgetting wisdom again


[Pre Chorus: Mattyb]

I don't want your number

I don't wanna waste my time

You can have all your crazy

Cause you're outta you're mind


[Chorus: Mattyb]

It's on the low key

Thinking your smooth, foolin everyone else

It's on the low key

What you don't know is that your playing

Yourself

It's on the low key

Nothing but lies that's coming out of your mouth

It's on the low key

Sooner or later you're gonna get found out


[Verse 2: Mattyb]

Hit me up, said she was begging to chill

Acting cute, nothing suspicious

So I'm keeping it real

Though it might be nice to surprise her

And show up at the crib

So I buy her a little present

You know something to give

But get this, I arrive a couple knocks at the door

And her angry father's expression

Got me shook to the core

As I slowly begin to ask if she can hang for a few

"I'm confused, I thought she already left with you!"

Huh? So I take off an I'm walking all over town

I'm trying to keep my cool while I'm looking around

I've got an uneasy feeling here that something

Ain't right but I'm hopping I'm tripping

And that we can have a good time

Just as soon as I can find

This beautiful girl of mine

She'll prolly explain that

She just lost track of the time

I turn the corner and never expected

What i would find

My girl with another guy

Tryna keep it low key


[Pre Chorus: Mattyb]

I don't want your number

I don't wanna waste my time

You can have all your crazy

Cause you're outta you're mind


[Chorus: Mattyb]

It's on the low key

Thinking your smooth, foolin everyone else

It's on the low key

What you don't know is that your playing

Yourself

It's on the low key

Nothing but lies that's coming out of your mouth

It's on the low key

Sooner or later you're gonna get found out


[Verse 3: Mattyb]

So I kept my composer

Even thought it was over

Sobering in the moment

With this unmistakable closure

Going over the moments in my head

I lost all my focus

Now i'm forced to be soldering on

Part of my heart broken

No one knows how I felt

In that moment I had to walk away

Hate that it's over you know

I learned the harder way

Smarter to be yourself cause

In the end people can see

When you try to try to keep it

Try to keep it on the low... key


[Chorus: Mattyb]

It's on the low key

Thinking your smooth, foolin everyone else

It's on the low key

What you don't know is that your playing

Yourself

It's on the low key

Nothing but lies that's coming out of your mouth

It's on the low key

Sooner or later you're gonna get found out

It's on the low key

I'm serious, man

Crazy low key girls

Nothing but trouble
