Not Buying

[Verse 1]

You roll in smooth with your silver tongue

Like I ain’t heard that line since I was young

You say you’ve changed, but your boots still lie

Got a halo in your pocket and the devil in your eye

[Verse 2]

I’ve seen love used like a loaded dice

Tilt the table, smile real nice

But I’m done trading truth for charm

You don’t get a second shot to do me harm

[Pre-Chorus]

Do you think I forgot who you really are

Do you think pretty words can hide all those scars

[Chorus]

Sell that story someplace else—‘cause I’m not buying

You left me burning and now you’re just trying

To wear redemption like a second skin

But I see right through what you’re peddling

I buried your ghost six feet in the ground

I ain’t your fool and I ain’t your rebound

[Verse 3]

I’m not the prize you get to reclaim

This love’s evolved—you missed that train

Sell your guilt to someone blind

I’ve got no space for your rewind

[Verse 4]

I won’t play the damsel in your script

This ain’t your sequel, this ain’t your grip

Your plot’s worn thin, your ink ran dry

I turned the page and kissed goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]

How many times you think I’ll fall for your lines

Ain’t you tired of rehearsing tired rhymes

[Chorus]

Sell that story someplace else—‘cause I’m not buying

You left me burning and now you’re just trying

To wear redemption like a second skin

But I see right through what you’re peddling

I buried your ghost six feet in the ground

I ain’t your fool and I ain’t your rebound

[Verse 5]

I’m not your fix, not your next campaign

You can’t cleanse your guilt in my name

Spin your tale for someone new

This girl sees exactly what’s true

[Verse 6]

Sell that story someplace else—‘cause I’m not buying

You fooled me once, but now I’m done crying

I don’t need closure, don’t need your spin

Your truth’s just a tale dressed up in sin

[Pre-Chorus]

Is this an apology—or a con in disguise

You keep talking, but I see through your eyes

[Chorus]

Sell that story someplace else—‘cause I’m not buying

You left me burning and now you’re just trying

To wear redemption like a second skin

But I see right through what you’re peddling

I buried your ghost six feet in the ground

I ain’t your fool and I ain’t your rebound

[Verse 7]

Sell that story someplace else—‘cause I’m not buying

I’ve redecorated and quit complying

This soul don’t barter with the past

You had your shot—it didn’t last

[Verse 8]

I’m not the girl who begged you to stay

I’m not the heart you used to play

You lost that right with every lie

So take your pitch and say goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]

Did you think I’d be here, frozen in place

Waiting for lies with a smiling face

[Chorus]

Sell that story someplace else—‘cause I’m not buying

You left me burning and now you’re just trying

To wear redemption like a second skin

But I see right through what you’re peddling

I buried your ghost six feet in the ground

I ain’t your fool and I ain’t your rebound

[Verse 9]

Your return ain’t brave—it’s just timing

You want back in like nothing’s wrong

But this heart moved on and grew strong

You’re not my chapter, you’re just the end

[Verse 10]

I’ve heard it all from lips like yours

Each word polished, behind closed doors

So take your act down another road

This stage is mine—I bear no load

[Pre-Chorus]

Do you want forgiveness, or just a place to land

Is this about love—or just sleight of hand

[Chorus]

Sell that story someplace else—‘cause I’m not buying

You left me burning and now you’re just trying

To wear redemption like a second skin

But I see right through what you’re peddling

I buried your ghost six feet in the ground

I ain’t your fool and I ain’t your rebound

[Verse 11]

Even silence has a way of testifying

I outgrew your myths and found my voice

You dressed up regret, hoping I’d rejoice

But I won’t be cast in your rewriting

[Verse 12]

You broke the truth and lit the fuse

Find your grace in your own damn mirror

This girl’s not yours—not now, not nearer

I’ve walked away and didn’t lose

[Pre-Chorus]

Are you here for me—or the clean slate I give

Is this love—or a new place to live

[Chorus]

Sell that story someplace else—‘cause I’m not buying

You left me burning and now you’re just trying

To wear redemption like a second skin

But I see right through what you’re peddling

I buried your ghost six feet in the ground

I ain’t your fool and I ain’t your rebound

[Bridge]

You practiced that speech like a late-night show

But I’ve been the guest star in your tales before

You want applause, but I brought the door

It don’t swing open anymore

[Outro]

So take your fiction, your charm, your regret

Pack 'em up with the lies I ain’t buying yet

Sell it to someone who still believes

I’ve cashed out on make-believes
