Against Me

I should've listened to my intuition

I put myself in this position, it's all my fault

Look in the mirror, think what am I missing?

See and think different, oh, am I lost?

Feelin' a way, nothin's the same

I wish you would change, oh, I'm lost

Numbin' the pain don't make it okay

Nothin' to say but

You brought all the issues (Issues)

And mine was staying with you

Don't hold it against me ('Gainst me)

Against me, hold it against me, against me, yeah

And I don't trust you lately

And if that makes me crazy

Can't hold it against me ('Gainst me)

Against me, hold it against me, yeah

Feel like I'm driftin', know he notice the distance

And love ain't been blockin' my vision, but that ain't my fault

That he was the difference

You let him get in that position, I'm too comfortable now

And feelin' a way, nothin's the same

I think every day that we're lost

And love ain't enough, but it's holding me up

Love ain't enough, girl

You brought all the issues

And mine was staying with you

Don't hold it against me ('Gainst me)

Against me, hold it against me, against me

And I don't trust you lately

Said I don't trust you

And if that makes me crazy

If that makes me

Can't hold it against me ('Gainst me)

Against me, hold it against me, yeah

Against me, against me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

Oh, oh, yeah

Against me, against me, against me

To my women, with the utmost respect

Intellect, we often forget and neglect

Intuition can see through elusive intent

Listen to it

Just listen, just listen

I found myself searchin' for a way to prevent

The detriment, and given the impression that if you express to him

What a woman needs, his comprehension is definite

But there's a difference between understanding and honoring your word

And I'm articulate, he's a good listener

But I'm hesitant 'cause he's gonna fuck up anyways

Baby, just listen, listen, listen

Oh

In the corners of a man's mind, there's a place where vulnerability hides

And intimacy is not the act of physical intertwine, but it's the isolation of two minds

That's why he keeps his heart and his head separate

There's only one he can connect with

The multiple names on the checklist, only calls when he's desperate

I guess it's too much pressure to be respectful and honest

It's too stressful to be keepin' promises, and I'm impatient

I'm too high maintenance, way too many expectations

When we're just dating, but I'm special, right?

Deny, deny, deny, all you do is lie, word is bond, right?

But not with me because I don't know what it's like

I'll never understand the needs of a man or how to nurture

And what she doesn't know can't hurt her

But, nah, it's deep, and you know it

I told you exactly what I wanted, and that love is exhausting

But I'm not tired of you yet

No, no, no

To my women, with the utmost respect

Intellect, we often forget and neglect

Intuition can see through elusive intent

Listen to it
