I should've left the first time But love makes you dumb sometimes

I held you down when you held me back Loved you through lies you couldn't hide like

That I played the wife when you played outside

Carried your baggage while you fed me pride I checked your phone when I knew the truth

Screenshots hittin' harder than the proof Had me cryin, prayin, askin' why

Lovin' you felt like choosin' not to die I gave you chance after chance, I admit

Took you back quicker than you could commit I wanted forever, you wanted a friend

I should've let that be the end, oh I was too loyal, too patient, too kind

Loved you so hard I damn near lost my mind Stayed when I shouldn't, prayed you would change

All while you kept playin' in my face I was too loyal, too soft, too true

Gave you my heart when you gave me excuse But the gag is, now I'm brand new

And the best thing I did was stop lovin' you You break me down and ask for space

Say you needed time but you needed a chase I held you down, you held grudges

Made me pay for what your past love did I washed your clothes, fed your soul

You still went out and played your role Loved you in ways you couldn't receive

Beg for a man you couldn't be We could've been magic, you chose a mess

I settled for pain when I deserved the best I let you stay in rooms you never earned

Tried to teach you love, you never learned Too kind, loved you so hard I damn near lost my mind

Stayed when I shouldn't, prayed you would change All while you kept playin' in my face

I was too loyal, too soft, too true Gave you my heart when you gave me excuse

But the gag is, now I'm brand new And the best thing I did was stop lovin' you

You know it's wild I thought lovin' you harder would fix you

Turns out, it just broke me Never again

Too loyal, too real, too good Baby, I'm done doin' more than I should

You were a lesson I had to undo And the blessing was finally losin' you
