Break You Off Lyrics by The Roots

Uh (Go on, girl), we getting started
Coming to break you off (We getting started, started)
Coming to break you off (We getting started)
Coming to break you off (We getting started, started)

(We getting started) Yeah, baby
(Coming to break you off) Off
Coming to break you off (Come on and work it out)
Coming to break you off (Come, work with me)

Coming to break you off (Get it started, started, started, started)
Yeah, baby (Coming to break you, uh), oh
Bad Misses, throwing raspberry kisses on me
You looking for direction?

Girl, I feel your vision on me
Just don’t let him see you sweatin’
We ain’t supposed to be involved
Knowing when we get it off, girl, I mean it all

Keeping you fiending to get taken and tossed
And when I’m breaking it off
It’s no denying the fact it’s wrong
‘Cause you got a man who’s probably playing his part

You probably breaking his heart
He tryna figure the reason you gone
Is it because he’s superficial, or is he too submissive
Or did I come along and hit you with the futuristic?

Or is it ’cause you really couldn’t see a future with him?
All he about is paper, never took the time with you to listen?
You want it gripped up, flipped, and thrown
And get stripped and shown the way to get in the zone

The cost, dealing with this you won’t be takin’ a loss
You need to leave him alone
And roll with the one who breaking you off (For real)
Coming to break you off (We getting started, started)

Coming to break you off (We getting started)
Coming to break you off (We getting started, started)
(We getting started) Yeah, baby
(Coming to break you, uh) Off

Coming to break you off
Coming to break you off (Come, work it out, come, work with me)
Coming to break you off (We getting started, we getting started)
Yeah, baby (Coming to break you off), oh

I be the brother down the hall, the one you bound to call
Workaholic, so really I’m rarely around at all
What we started got serious, repercussions and cost
We had a chance to turn back, but love, that was lost

Late nights, twisting something listening to Niecey sing
She got the beat for you, telling me you deeply appreciate the company
Time we spend, I feel the same
It’s a shame you ain’t my girlfriend (My girl)

‘Cause listen, you need a brother with that physical fix
That come through in a mix for you with no head tricks or fraud
You need a new position, and who can get you open like it’s Eucalyptus
Have you ready to go for yours

Come on and work with me, you won’t get hurt with me
Just keep it real and you’ll get broken off certainly
Dealing with this you won’t be taking a loss
You need to leave I’m alone and roll with the one who breaking you off

Coming to break you off (We getting started, started)
Coming to break you off (I’m getting started, girl)
Coming to break you off (I’m getting started, started)
(I’m getting) Yeah, baby

(We coming to break you, come on) Off
Coming to break you off
Coming to break you off (Come, break it off, come on, we getting started, what)
Coming to break you off (We getting started, we getting started)

Yeah, baby (Coming to break you, uh), oh
Rolling down the highway, listening to Sade sing
The way the smooth operator move my way
You sitting beside me, looking like Friday Foster

Pam Grier structure, look at your body
Keep each other thirsty, kisses like Hershey
But lips is sealed ’cause we don’t need a controversy
I say I’m in town, you say you want it in the worst way

You probably told your man it was Jamila birthday
Meanwhile, the champagne chill in the ice
You ready for the freakiest things you done in your life
We breaking down like we road dogs pulling a heist

You making sounds like the vibe got you reaching your height
Prepare for flight, this is your captain, I’m getting strapped in
There’s no denying the strength of this attraction, girl
Working with this you won’t be taking a loss

So stop fooling your man and roll with the one who breaking you off
We getting started
Baby, baby, baby, don’t you worry ’bout (Oh baby)
Nothing ’cause I’m coming to handle you, no doubt

Whenever you want that thing you need (I got it)
I got it and I aim to please (Baby)
So I’m coming over to give it to you
Baby, baby

Coming to break you off (We getting started, started)
Coming to break you off (Come on, work with me, we getting started)
Coming to break you off (Check it out, we getting started)
Yeah, baby

(We coming to break you, come on) Off
Coming to break you off
Coming to break you off (Uh, break it off, we getting started)
Coming to break you off (Uh, say what?)

Yeah, baby (Coming to break you), ooh
Coming to break you off (We getting started, started)
Coming to break you off (We getting started, what)
Coming to break you off (We getting started, started)

Yeah, baby
(We getting started, coming to break you, come on) Off
Coming to break you off
Coming to break you off (Come, break it off, come on)
