Stop
I already hear what you wanna say
And I know it's not right
Save your breath, all my questions are gone now
I hand it over to you, no matter what it costs me
So baby, stop
I give up
Don't ask me for love anymore
You deserve none
If you had to choose
We'd still lose
Don't ask me for love anymore
You deserve none
So baby, stop
So baby, stop
Dodge me, avoid me
Ghost me and sidestep me
I don't believe in you like you do
What I say is facts
I have no time to stay here
I know you're testing me, but sometimes it seems
That this will never end
I give up
I already hear what you wanna say
And I know it's not right
So baby, stop
I give up
Don't ask me for love anymore
You deserve none
If you had to choose
We'd still lose
Don't ask me for love anymore
You deserve none
So baby, stop
You lie, you
I've had it with you
I choose
I'd rather hold you tight
I let go, but not fully
What you see isn't real
I am
But not far from you
Stop, I already hear what you wanna say
And I know it's not right
Save your breath
All my questions are gone now
Don't ask me for love anymore
You deserve none
So baby, stop
I give up
Don't ask me for love anymore
You deserve none
If you had to choose
We'd still lose
Don't ask me for love anymore
You deserve none
So baby, stop
I give up
So baby, stop

SONG MEANING

Nobu’s “Stop” is a no-nonsense break-up anthem that blends smooth urban beats with sharp, Dutch lyrics. From the very first line, the singer cuts through excuses and empty promises: he already knows what his partner will say, and he is done listening. Each chorus (“Vraag mij niet meer om liefde…”) drives home the main message: don’t ask me for love, you don’t deserve any. It is a refreshingly direct reminder that sometimes the healthiest choice is to walk away, even if it costs you.

Under the surface, the song is about self-respect and boundaries. Nobu lists the toxic behaviors—lying, ghosting, endless testing—that have drained all his questions and patience. Instead of begging for change, he flips the script: Baby, stop. I give up. That surrender is not defeat, but empowerment. Listeners are left with an energizing takeaway: when love turns into a one-sided game, the bravest move is to hit stop and reclaim your own rhythm.
