Don't Kill My Vibe

You shut me down, you like the control
You speak to me like I am a child
You try to hold it down, I know the answer
And I can't shake it off and
You feel threatened by me

I tried to play it nice, but oh oh ooh
Don't kill my vibe oh oh ooh
Don't break my stride

You think you're so important to me
Don't you? But I wanted you to know
That you don't belong here
Think you're so important to me, don't you?
Well, don't kill my vibe

You love to tear me down
You like the control
Then build me up like I depend on you
I've thrown myself from heights that
Used to scare me guess you're surprised
I'm the puzzle you can't figure out

I tried to play it nice but oh oh ooh, ooh
Don't kill my vibe oh oh ooh, ooh
Don't break my stride

You think you're so important to me
Don't you? But I wanted you to know
That you don't belong here
Think you're so important to me, don't you?
Well, don't kill my vibe

Say I'm young, I don't care, I
Won't quit, no, no, no, ho
You say I'm young, I don't care
I won't quit, no, no, no, ho
You're acting like you hurt me
But I'm not even listenin'
You're acting like you hurt me
But I'm not even listenin'
So, don't kill my vibe, ooh

Yo! I tried to play it nice but
Oh oh ooh, ooh don't kill my vibe, ah
Oh oh ooh, ooh don't break my stride

You think you're so important to me
Don't you? But I wanted you to know
That you don't belong here
Think you're so important to me, don't you?
Well, don't kill my vibe
