Overtime Lyrics
[Intro]
Ah-ah
Ooh-woah-woah-woah
[Verse 1]
Like a snake shedding her skin
She was way too innocent
She was too easy to fool
No way that she wouldn’t trust you
And he’d wait ’til she’s sleeping sound
And she’d wait ’til the sun comes out (Comes out)
And a kiss of goondight when she sneaks out the door
And she’ll never need more
[Chorus]
This is how a good girl never came back
She was riding on your truth but you never told that, yeah
Oh, this is how a good girl never came back
She was watching how you did her and she never came back (Ooh)
[Verse 2]
But she got these n!ggas working overtime, overtime
And it’s all because you couldn’t treat her right, treat her right
Overtime, overtime
Yeah, she got her in a fading and she’s fine
‘Cause she’s got money on her mind (Ooh)
Mind
She got them working overtime (Ooh)
Ah-ah-ah
[Chorus]
For what you put her through now, ah
She’ll never be you (No)
She don’t trust nobody so she stay in her room, yeah, yeah (Her room)
And it’s all because of you (You)
All because of everything you just put her through, yeah (Ooh)
[Outro]
No, you’re not my daddy
Know you know you’re not my daddy
No, you’re not my daddy
Know you know you’re not my daddy no more
Know you’re not mine no more
I just gotta close the door
I just gotta close the door
You’re not her daddy no more
I just gotta close the door

Overtime Lyrics Meaning
[Intro]
Just expressing emotions and setting a chill vibe.
[Verse 1]
She used to be very innocent and trusting, almost too easy to trick. She gave people her trust freely and believed in them without doubt. While he was secretly taking advantage of her, she stayed unaware and kept her routines, like waiting for the morning or sneaking out quietly. She gave love freely and simply, never asking for more than she could give.
[Chorus]
She realized that the person she trusted wasn’t honest with her. She saw the truth too late and decided not to go back to that person. Even though she once believed in them, she chose to protect herself and never returned to a situation that hurt her. She learned from what happened and walked away for good.
[Verse 2]
Now she’s in control of her life and doesn’t let anyone treat her badly. People around her have to put in effort to keep up with her because she knows her worth. She focuses on her own goals and success, thinking about her future. Her past pain has made her stronger, and she won’t let anyone take advantage of her again.
[Chorus]
Because of the way she was treated, she has become cautious and independent. She doesn’t trust people easily and prefers keeping to herself. The pain she went through shaped her actions, making her careful about who she lets in. Her past experiences guide her to stay protected and avoid repeating the same mistakes.
[Outro]
She’s breaking free from anyone who tried to control her or act like they had power over her. She refuses to let them influence her anymore and is determined to close that chapter of her life. She’s claiming her independence, cutting ties, and making it clear that she belongs to herself, not anyone who hurt her in the past.
