Played Yourself

This is my story See, you thought you caught me slipping But I was at the top of my game Oh, yeah You thought that I was too busy To even notice all of the sneaky things You used to do I used to watch you work so hard Trying to catch me doing something wrong Oh, yeah You see, I gave everything 'til I didn't have nothing left Baby, guess what? You played yourself That's what you did You played your doggone self Ooh- Now you're telling your friends That I was no good for you You're making up so many stories Trying to convince everybody That your story is true Oh, yeah But all of them know that I'm a good man And everything that I did was all about you Oh, yeah Now, I gave everything 'til I didn't have nothing left I'm so sorry, baby, you played yourself I know it's hard right now, but You played your doggone self Ooh, ah, ah Listen Now, if your lover is always checking on you It's because they're trying to cover up all the dirt they do Said I didn't say nothing Neither was a brother tripping Because all the time you was checking on me You were slipping Now, that it's all over I forgive you, baby But I've moved on I found me another lover And I don't have to worry about her Checking my cellphone When I lay down at night Baby, you had a good thing in me But baby, you never treated me right It's all over now You see, I gave everything 'til I didn't have nothing left By now you know you played yourself That's what you did You played your doggone self I know it's hard on you right now You played yourself It's too bad, too bad You played your doggone self Oh, I hate you did it to yourself Oh, ooh, alright Play on it now
