For all the females listening to this, we’ve all been here. They know what they want from the jump,no amount of love,vibe,fire, cooking or gifts will change your title from FWB to his woman. It hurts cos you are convinced he’s the one. Get yourself out of the situationship and walk away with your dignity. You are worth much more than being some stupid man’s benefits only. There’s a man out there praying for someone like you. I love this song so much but never had a song hurt at the same time cos it’s facts. Love me some @inglewoodsir ❤
Empress, if I may offer something to add... Men it is okay to want to be friends with women. Just make sure to voice that and you as the man do not cross that boundary. It's not right to mislead people. It's not right to abuse people. Treat each other like how you would treat your mother or child and I promise you, the world becomes a better place.
If we want to be wives we can't give ourselves to men who aren't our husbands. A wife has sex with her husband. A wife takes care of home. A wife raises children. Stop giving a man everything for nothing.
Fell for a guy who showed me this song. We would lay up listening to this in the dark smoking. WHOLE VIBE!! Felt like we were soulmates at moments. I had to move to another state. I listen to this to feel close to him, and reminisce. Still love him, even though we could never be....😢
Sort the same dilemma I'm married and recently reconnected with a past love that I missed a chance with this gave me clarity to do the right thing even though we both still have feelings for each other 😥😊
“She so happy when she next to me.....thought she had me, baby really thought she had me! Now she feenin’ for the rest of me, but that isn’t in the recipe!” 🤦🏽♀️ well F u too den nicca 😂😂😂
Man that feeling of "I know Ima hurt her but what am I gon do anyway", is deadass one of the worst things. It's that not like ion give a fuck about you, because i do, but i already know how you gon feel when this is over. im doin it for me despite how you might feel.
He broke code on this track lol the guys are mad he let the cat out of the bag. But us ladies can appreciate the transparency and realness. Thank you sir for giving us the recipe
More men should take heed and listen to this song. This is real in the beginning of a benefitship.. Mens should be open about what's going on before they have us women thinking other. If more men could sing like this then us women would understand better lol...Big props to SIR for this track. I love the vibe to this,I might play this one day just to throw a hint...
@@mr.caldwell7065 naw hunni hint was already given when he got married and hes still trying to get the pussy on the side...He's s the one that needs the hint...
Last year I was letting myself be taken advantage just like this song. Hoping to be with someone who never wanted anything real with me. Now I’m expecting my first baby with the love of my life in our new place. Like Sir Said “Let it go , Let it go , Let it go “
Sheesh! "We hit a rhythm, no control of emotion The more time we spend playin' house with no rent The more you hate it. You're a real one, speak of devotion. "👏🏽🦋
One of the realist and the most up front songs I have ever heard!! I have listened to this on repeat for at least an hour. Me and dude are over... This ain't the recipe for me. #NoMoCallsPlease
I'm glad this song is being received well by women. Its a bitter pill to swallow but its best for both parties involved to let go and move on if its not right
LYRICS: I gotta fall back, I don't mean to mislead her But if she believe every word that I said I take it all back, she playin' follow the leader But that doesn't mean that I ain't gotta leave her, oh no She say she could give me what I need I should make her more than company I swear she got that fire (fire) But does it compare to Cali? No She's so happy when she's next to me Thought she had me, baby really thought she had me Now she's fiendin' for the rest of me (rest of me) But that isn't in the recipe Let it go, let it go, girl This ain't what you want and you know We could never be I don't care how it feels This could never be real and you know That isn't in the recipe Let it go, let it go, girl This ain't what you want and you know We could never be I don't care how it feels This could never be real and you know (yeah) We hit a rhythm, no control of emotion The more time we spend playin' house with no rhythm More you hate it, you're a real one, speak of devotion Told 'em to leave and came lookin' for me I wonder, di-did I stutter when I told her ass None of this was ever meant to last? When I'm in it, it's that fire But does it compare to Cali? No She's so happy when she's next to me Thought she had me, baby really thought she had me Now she's fiendin' for the rest of me But that isn't in the recipe Let it go, let it go, girl This ain't what you want and you know We could never be I don't care how it feels This could never be real and you know That ain't the recipe, oh Let it go, let it go, girl This ain't what you want and you know We could never be I don't care how it feels This could never be real and you know Oh, let it go, let it go Let it go, let it go Let it go, let it go Let it go, let it go, let it
I dedicate this to myself. Been crushing hard over my friend/neighbor who isn't shit. Had to learn that isn't in the recipe for us to be in a relationship.
I was trying to get my guy to commit to me bcz we been rocking so long and he just refused to really address me directly concerning it. Here it is that I found this song. The words he can't say to me expressed so soulfully. I'm like Damn but I truly understand now.
"The Recipe" by SiR is a song about a man who is honest with a woman about his intentions with her and the relationship. In the first verse, the man admits that he doesn't want to mislead her and make her believe that they have a future together. He compares her to California, a place that’s “hot” and that he considers to be incomparable, not in a good way. The woman believes that she can provide him with everything he needs, but this is not enough for the man. In the chorus, the man encourages the woman to let go because they can never be together in a real relationship. He asserts that this type of relationship is not part of the recipe, meaning that it is not a good combination. In the second verse, the man describes their sexual relationship as being intense but temporary. He acknowledges that he never intended for it to last and reminds her of this. He also notes that the more time they spend together, it becomes harder to let go, but he still insists that they cannot be together in a real relationship. Overall, "The Recipe" is a song about a man who wants to be upfront with a woman and prevent her from developing feelings for him because he knows that a real relationship between them is not possible.
I’ve been listening to this song for a while but never really paid attention to the lyrics until right now. The dude I was talking to recently basically told me this. We both wanted to be in each others lives supposedly, but I wanted him fr and he was talking about some fwb bs.. mind you, he told me he loved me 3 times in the same convo. This world fucked up 🥹
This is the realest song cause man is saying imo that shorty is fire everything is good but it’s not the same as Cali. To me Cali is a representation of his goals and where he wants to be in his life. Sometimes shorty is fire but ur goals and where u wanna be gotta come first
Absolutely love this song. I play this every time just to get me back on track in my relationship. Your a dangerous man when you know who’s your light in your life
I've given this a couple of plays before and never paid too much attention to the lyrics... This hits so hard when you get what he's saying and he's so talented to make a whole complex situation or idea sound so simple... Like he synthesized everything on that chorus how something so complex and deep can sound so chill and simple? Thats when art comes to life...
Song on repeat today just so I can’t really embed in my brain this how he really see me. The comments helping me too.. as women we need to stop giving our bodies to men who don’t value us..
