[Verse 1: LaTavia]
No matter how bad that I want it
And every time I show 'em I'm lonely
He'll take advantage of me
So I'ma play my cards right until I got one card like Uno
Girl, you know how I do
I want a man with a slow hand (slow hand)
I need a man that don't mind a little romance
So 'til I know what he want
I just can't let 'em see me sweat, no
I just can't do it, no
[Pre-Chorus: Naty]
He's always there
Patience is a virtue
And I'ma always have my mama and my pride, oh
[Chorus: Anjel (LaTavia)]
I'm trying not to let 'em know (let 'em know, know, know)
I'm trying not to let my feelings show
I'm trying not to give the game away
So I've got on my poker face
Cause I don't wanna be ready
I don't wanna let 'em know
I'm trying not to let my feelings show
I'm trying not to give the game away
I've got on my poker face
Cause I don't wanna be played
[Verse 2: Tiffany]
I've never been so persistent
From just one decision
But I know how feelings change overtime
So I'ma hold it down like n***as on the grind
'Til I know he feels the same
I wanna fall but will he catch me? (catch me)
I need a love that I know just won't desert me
So 'til I'm sure that he wants me
I just can't let 'em see me sweat, no
[Pre-Chorus: Naty]
He's always there
Patience is a virtue
And I'ma always have my mama and my pride, oh
[Chorus: Anjel (Tiffany)]
I'm trying not to let 'em know (know)
I'm trying not to let my feelings show
I'm trying not to give the game away (give the game away)
So I've got on my poker face
Cause I don't wanna be ready
I don't wanna let 'em know (don't wanna let 'em know)
I'm trying not to let my feelings show (feelings show)
I'm trying not to give the game away
I've got on my poker face
Cause I don't wanna be played (cause I don't wanna be ready)
[Bridge: Anjel]
I know it may get tough
But I just can't let you call my bluff
See I've been hurt once before
And I'm not trying to hurt no more, boy
I know you can do your part
I gotta be cautious where I place my heart
And when I seem so distant to you
Baby, just know
[Chorus: Anjel]
I'm trying not to let 'em know
I'm trying not to let my feelings show
I'm trying not to give the game away
So I've got on my poker face
Cause I don't wanna be ready
I don't wanna let 'em know
I'm trying not to let my feelings show
I'm trying not to give the game away
I've got on my poker face
Cause I don't wanna be played, no, no
