Going Nowhere is a song by Fifth Harmony included in their first studio album, Reflection, which debuted on February 3, 2015. They performed it on Live on Tour.

Critical Response[]

"An effervescent rant against a guy trying to exit a relationship that's still humming along, 'Going Nowhere' is powerful enough to be ranked among Reflection's most immediate pop pleasures. Producer Flict, who also helmed "Suga Mama," nets another win with his gummy synth riff here.", according to Jason Liphutz of Billboard.

"'Going Nowhere' is the first deluxe song and is definitely the opposite of the more subdued 'We Know,' but it doesn’t feel overdone. The clapping in the verses and bridges do just enough to pump up the song before the chorus takes over. While it’s a deluxe track, it’s still one of the strongest of the group.", according to Rebecca Mattina of andPOP.

"'Going Nowhere' has a slight island flare to it as the girls command their guy to take a seat because he isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. There are a couple of memorable lines in this one, “Boy, you better act like you got some sense / ’cause you got a dime, and that’s money well spent.”", according to Marcel Jeremiah of PPcorn.

Lyrics[]

Lauren:
First off, give a girl some credit
I'ma gonna keep on loving you, 'cause you be the realest
All day and all night and that's why you stay by my side

Fifth Harmony:
Ah, ah, ah, yeah!

Ally:
I don't always do the right thing
It doesn't matter, 'cause nobody's perfect here no
If you leave, I can't make you stay

Fifth Harmony:
Where you going, where you tryna go
Where you going, where you tryna go
Baby, baby?

Where you going, where you tryna go
Where you going, where you tryna go
Baby, baby?

Camila:
Sit yourself down, 'cause you know you're gonna stay
Boy, you better listen to the words I say

Fifth Harmony:
You ain't going nowhere
You ain't going nowhere

Boy, you better act like you got some sense,
'Cause you got a dime, and that's money well spent

You ain't going nowhere
You ain't going nowhere

Dinah:
We'll be here all day, if you start pointing fingers my way
I just wished you loved me, loved me, baby
If you can do that then I'll do the same, yeah

Camila:
Mmm we can make it work, baby
We'd be crazy if we don't try
Love and hate is such a thin line

Fifth Harmony:
Where you going, where you tryna go (Ally: Tryna go!)
Where you going, where you tryna go (Ally: Oh, ho-o!)
Baby, baby?

(with Dinah: Where you going, where you tryna go)
(Dinah: Uh, huh) Where you going, where you tryna go
Baby, baby?

Camila:
Sit yourself down, 'cause you know you're gonna stay
Boy, you better listen to the words I say

Fifth Harmony:
You ain't going nowhere
You ain't going nowhere

Boy, you better act like you got some sense,
'Cause you got a dime, and that's money well spent

You ain't going nowhere
You ain't going nowhere

Lauren with Dinah harmonizing:
If you're waiting for me (Oh)
You gon' be waiting all night (Oh)
If you're gonna play games you're gonna lose
You'll be sorry if you say goodbye

Fifth Harmony:
Ah, ah, ah, yeah!

Normani with Dinah harmonizing:
Yeah I still want you, but I don't need you
You should be happy I'm still here for you
I don't have to be, you must be blind if you can't see

Fifth Harmony (Dinah):
Where you going, where you tryna go (Camila: Tryna go)
Where you going, where you tryna go
Baby, baby? (Tryna go, baby)

Where you going, where you tryna go
(U-uh, yeah!) Where you going, where you tryna go
Baby, baby?

Camila (Lauren):
Sit yourself down, (Settle down) 'cause you know you're gonna stay
Boy, you better listen to the words I say (I say)

Fifth Harmony (Camila):
You ain't going nowhere
You ain't going nowhere (You ain't going nowhere)

Boy, you better act like you got some sense (Got some sense!)
'Cause you got a dime, and that's money well spent

You ain't going nowhere (Dinah: Now...)
You ain't going nowhere (Dinah: Nowwhere)

Camila:
Sit yourself down, 'cause you know you're gonna stay
Boy, you better listen (with Lauren: to the words I say)

Fifth Harmony (Lauren):
You ain't going nowhere (No-no, nowhere)
You ain't going nowhere (No-no, nowhere)

Boy, you better act like you got some sense, (Yeah!)
'Cause you got a dime, and that's money well spent

You ain't going nowhere
You ain't going nowhere
