"You Had Me"
(B.J. Wright)

[Intro:]
You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here
Messing with my mind

Spitting in my eyes and I still see
Tried to keep me down, I'm breaking free
I don't want no part in your next fix
Someone needs to tell you this is it

[Pre-Chorus:]
Hey, listen, you'll be missin' out
On my love and my kissin'
Make your mistakes on your own time
When you come down, you're just no good to have around
Instead of making money, you took mine

[Chorus:]
You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here
Messing with my mind
I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life

You tried to trade on my naivete
But the things you do and say embarrass me
See, once upon a time I was your fool
But the one I leave behind, he is you

[Pre-Chorus:]
Hey, listen, you'll be missin' out
On my love and my kissin'
Make your mistakes on your own time
When you come down, you're just no good to have around
Instead of making money, you took mine

[Chorus:]
You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here
Messing with my mind
I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life

[Bridge:]
Vodka and a packet of cigarettes
That's all it used to be but now
You're sniffing on snow when you're feeling low
Suffocating dreams that could have...
Maybe for a minute I'd be down with that
But it didn't take long for me to see the light
You swore you had control of it
When I stepped back you slipped on your supply
Mm-hmm

[Chorus:]
You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here
Messing with my mind (No)
I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life

[Post-Chorus:]
Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Ain't nobody got no business
Stressing all the time
Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life

[Chorus:]
You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here
Messing with my mind (Oh)
I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life

[Post-Chorus:]
Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Ain't nobody got no business
Stressing all the time
Taking it back, I'm taking it back
I'm taking back my life
