[Verse 1]
You called me a liar, know that much
Is true
You should have known with each
“I love you”
It never came from the heart
Despite how much it meant to you
Now you’re the only one in pain
Now that we’re through
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not a heartbreaker
Or at least I don’t mean to be
I’m searching for the one who’s meant for me
I saw them in you
Or, at least, I thought I once did
You can’t put this all on me
When you’re not perfect
[Chorus]
Fooled me once
I thought there was more to you
Created an image of what I wanted
Just to tolerate you
Fooled me twice
At that point I needed the lies
They were the only thing about you
That made my heart melt the ice
[Verse 2]
I thought it would hurt more,
Telling the truth,
But nothing feels better
Than letting it loose
You needed me
You wanted me
Much more desperate than I
Would ever be
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not a heartbreaker
Or at least I don’t mean to be
I’m searching for the one who’s meant for me
I saw them in you
Or, at least, I thought I did
You can’t put this all on me
When you’re not perfect
[Chorus]
Fooled me once
I thought there was more to you
Created an image of what I wanted
Just to tolerate you
Fooled me twice
At that point I needed the lies
They were the only thing about you
That made my heart skip a beat

[Verse 1] (A)
Hey good-lookin’, you’ve been standing in the corner
Gucci rock
Booty drop
Gave a performance
Go ahead and catch your breath, I’m just that charming
Looking for that second chance since we’ve been over
[Verse 2] (B)
(STOP!)
I’m in the club because tonight is my girl’s night out
If I knew you’d be stopping by, I could’ve gone without
You mean to tell me you ain’t got a chick, now that I doubt
Since we broke up you’ve been the reason why I pop out
Knew you were trifling
Smug and smiling at any girl
Left me feeling betrayed, I was dismayed
You rocked my world
And then you left me
Said I wasn’t “quite the fit”?
But still had the audacity
To call me desperate
[Interlude] (B)
Desperate
You called me desperate
(Hmm)
How the mighty have fallen
Now if you don’t get up out my face
[Verse 3] (A)
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Baby, take it slow
I admit I made mistakes, but I always had you dripped in gold
Never spent a day in our relationship leaving you out in the cold
I gave the best of me
The parts no one will ever know
I’ll give you grace
You’re clearly jaded
Remember, no one could tell you shit when we were dating
Back then everything made sense, things weren’t so complicated
I made you better, highly rated, now you got some class
And now I’m not too proud to admit that I want you back
[Bridge] (B)
Want me back?
Spare me, please!
[Verse 4] (B)
Let me say this in a way so that you’ll understand
You got some nerve to think that I would ever want you back
I’mma let you keep the gold
For your hoes
They weighed me down
Calling me jaded?
Hope you’re mistaken
You were a mess
I built you up, set you straight
Cause you were a bitch
No one could stand you if I wasn’t with you, that I’ll admit
Birds of a feather, flocking together — your friends are fake
I’mma need you to do better, you know what?
Let me give you a list:
Never remembered my birthday if it wasn’t belated
Never cared to see my body if it wasn’t r-rated
Never gave a hint of a smile if I wasn’t frustrated
You built up walls and made me feel isolated
Brought out the best of you?
Don’t get me aggy
Took all the best of me to find in another bad b
I’m taking time to rebuild my worth
I’m popping ass, you can watch
But I hope it hurts
[Outro]

[Intro]
You got me down and out, left me with no more than all of my stress and
Wasted all my time, but mama told me to call it a ‘blessing”
(In disguise)
[Verse 1]
Flowers and sweet nothings
Never replaced the little things
Meeting eye to eye,
Being on the same wavelength
Giving up your time
To take me to appointments
You showed me who you were from day one
For that I’m slightly thankful
[Chorus]
Let me tell it how it is
In a way you’ll understand
I hope you’ll find love however you’re able
You’ve been
A liar
A cheat
Can’t even tell if what we had was real
This heartbreak might be fatal
(fatal)
Oh
I’m bouncing back again
But my heart will never be the same
I’m left with all this pain
But I know I’ll never treat my next lover like
A Zero Sum Game
[Verse 2]
I asked myself for a long time
Could I have done something better?
Changed my hair and my vibe —
Still found you texting whoever
You made it clear what was important
Can’t say that that was ever me
You knew I deserved someone better
Someone who would actually claim me
[Verse 3]
You saw my desperation
It was painted on the wall
I latched onto you like a tether
And we weathered out the storm
But I see it clearer now
Clearer than any blue sky day
I made you look better
When everyone knew you weren’t shit
[Chorus]
Let me tell it how it is
In a way you’ll understand
I hope you’ll find love however you’re able
You’ve been
A liar
A cheat
Can’t even tell if what we had was real
This heartbreak might be fatal
(fatal)
Oh
I’m bouncing back again
But my heart will never be the same
I’m left with all this pain
But I’ll be damned if treat my next lover like
A Zero Sum Game
[Outro]
A Zero Sum Game
