I Think I Like Teyana Taylor's "Her Room" Better

For the past few weeks Kelly Rowland’s “Motivation” has been the ‘it’ track for artists to cover but it seems as though Drake’s new song “Marvin’s Room” is slowly taken over. Earlier this week, Jojo released a female version of the record and slayed the song while receiving rave reviews.

Now, Teyana Taylor takes a shot at “Marvin’s Room” in a new mix that she calls “Her Room”.  The song shows off more of her vocal range and  she throws in a little bit of Lauryn Hill’s classic “Ex-Factor. The lyrics will definitely take you back to the time he (whomever he may be) let you slip away.





[Verse 1:]
Chillin’ in my bedroom
Wife-beater and my panties on
I just got a phone call
That you was out with your new girl
The nigga that I did love
Really kinda threw me off
Feel like I’m drowning in sorrow
Where is my lifeguard?

[Hook]
Fuck that new girl, that you love so bad
I know you still think about the times we had
I said fuck that new girl, that you think you found
But you calling me even when she’s around
I’m just saying, with me you had better
I know your boys have told you that lately
After me, you couldn’t find better
Notice that your new girl ain’t me (ain’t me, yeah)

[Verse 2:]
Kisses from a rebound
She’s just a girl you keep around
I see all of your phone calls
But I don’t have the time to pick up no more
All the shit that we been through
And I admit it boy I miss you too
And I been sippin’ on this champagne
A little tipsy so I call you back to say

[Hook]
Fuck that new girl that you love so bad
I know you still think about the times we had
I said fuck that new girl that you think you found
But you calling me even when she’s around
I’m just saying, with me you had better
I know your boys have told you that lately
After me, you couldn’t find better
Notice that your new girl ain’t me (she ain’t T, yeah)

[Verse 3:]
You gon be trippin’ when I’m at a party
You see these niggas lookin’ at my body
You wanna grab me when you see me leaving
Won’t take you back and I’ll give you the reasons;
I told you I’d leave, knowing I wanted to stay
You didn’t try, you let me walk away
Starting to think all niggas are the same
The look on your face tells me that you’re ashamed
Wanted to love you but now I’m afraid
You say you need me and how much you’ve changed
I don’t believe you, it could be just game
Trust isn’t something you give out, it’s gained

[Bridge]
Didn’t wanna give up
Say you want me back now, got my feelings mixed up
I just wanna move on, I need someone that I can lean on
And it won’t be a nigga like you

[Hook]
I’m just saying with me you had better
I can’t even remember…number
You tell me that I may have better
And you know…new girl ain’t me
She ain’t me

[Speaking]
I’m faded…

[Outro]
Care for me, care for me
I know you care for me
There for me, there for me
Said you’d be there for me
Cry for me, cry for me
You said you’d die for me
Give to me, Give to me
Why won’t you live for me
Care for me, care for me
I know you care for me
There for me, there for me
Said you’d be there for me
Cry for me, cry for me
You said you’d die for me
Give to me, Give to me
Why won’t you live for me?
Where-where were you when I needed you?
