PARTYNEXTDOOR – R e s e n t m e n t Lyrics

PARTYNEXTDOOR gives us a jeremiad of reasons why he is now giving his estranged lover the ultimatum of either respecting him enough to sit down and fix the shaky relationship that he and his lover now find themselves in; or he leaves. Throughout the song, he shares how he finally has the courage to, not only point out his lover’s flaw, being disrespectful, but he is now also brave enough to walk away from the relationship without looking back. In so doing, he makes it clear that she is a coward for not facing the problem head-on and, instead, running from all issues at hand and she does this often.

R e s e n t m e n t Lyrics by PARTYNEXTDOOR

[Verse 1]
There you go (Pop a party pack)
Still runnin’ (Runnin’) from all of your problems (All your problems)
Shawty turned to the runnin’ man (Runnin’ man)
Soon as she (Soon as she) faces (Faces) drama (Drama)
You ain’t gon’ keep bringin’ up the past (Bringin’ up the past)
You ain’t gon’ keep turnin’ your back (Keep turnin’ in your back)

[Chorus]
I won’t keep standin’ for it
What be goin’ through your mind? (Goin’ through your mind)
Stayin’ out past five (Stayin’ out past five)
And you know you gon’ get checked for it
Respect’s what I need, but don’t get (Ooh)
All that I do is resent you now, woah, woah
Respect ain’t so hard to get (Ooh)
But you don’t even attempt to figure yourself out (Ooh, yourself out)
When in doubt, you run (Nah)
When in doubt, you run (Oh, uh, yeah, yeah)
When in doubt, when in doubt, you run

[Verse 2]
Domino, look at the domino (Domino)
Effect (Effect) that’s happenin’ (Happenin’)
Thinkin’ ’bout gettin’ even
But I ain’t even inspired to get that low (Inspired to get that low)
I just wanna know what we’re waitin’ for, baby
I won’t keep bringin’ up the past (Bringin’ up the past)
I won’t keep tryna run it back (Tryna run it back)

[Chorus]
I won’t keep standin’ for it (Lack of respect)
What be goin’ through your mind? (Goin’ through your mind)
Stayin’ out past five (Stayin’ out past five)
And you know you gon’ get checked for it (Lack of respect)
Respect’s what I need, but don’t get (Ooh)
All that I do is resent you now, woah, woah (Lack of respect)
Respect ain’t so hard to get (Ooh)
But you don’t even attempt to figure yourself out, yeah (Ooh, ooh, yeah, lack of respect)
When in doubt, you run
I know it better, better than anyone
When in doubt, you run (Oh, uh, yeah, yeah)
When in doubt, oh, when in doubt (When in doubt), you run
