Blocked the light, I lacked the luster

Black and white, all out of color

Couldn’t see nobody else but you

I think to myself and wonder

I could leave you for another

Then I would be just as low as you

Caught up in a daze, I lost myself in you

Suddenly awake and now I know the truth

Said that you’d be there for me

But if you really care for me

You would let me go or cut me loose

Release your hold on me

I don’t wanna waste my time

I don’t wanna dim my light

Cause whatever’s filling you is draining all of my energy

Regain control of me

I don’t wanna give it up

Don’t you think I had enough

Rediscovering everything your loving took away from me

Every card I drew with you was made for me to lose

I would’ve left some time ago if better’s what I knew

If you love me let me go

And if it’s real I’ll let you know

Gave my all with nothing left for me

I knew it from the start

Right here in my heart

You took advantage of me like a pawn up in your scheme

Baby I was a burned

You’re a lesson learned

I need to unlearn the way you programmed me to be

Release your hold on me

I don’t wanna waste my time

I don’t wanna dim my light

Cause whatever’s filling you is draining all of my energy

Regain control of me

I don’t wanna give it up

Don’t you think I had enough

Rediscovering everything your loving took away from me

Oh yea

Yea

Boy you know I loved you

But I love me more
