Fool Me Once

I let you get to me once now, baby

But I'll never let you in again

I let you get to me once now, baby

But I'll never let you in again

You got to cover it up

You've got to play your own game

You've got to cover it up

Don't let them know what you're thinkin'

I bet you never tell them how it feels

I'll bet you never even try to be real

I went straight into it, no guards

Handin' over my heart

Tryna help you heal wounds

I'm walkin' off with the scars

Boy, I'm swearin' to God

That I'll never love again

It be a cold day in Hell

'Fore I let a **** in

And I don't wanna be friends

Protectin' all my energy

Love me in the mornin'

By the noon, you ain't feelin' me

It's finicky, **** mood  change real quick

Make you feel like you the shit

To feeling like you ain't shit

I'll admit it

I let a **** knock me off my pivot

You ain't have self-esteem till you hit it

Goin' out sad 'bout a ****, girl, quit it

He'll be texting in a minute

Beggin', sayin' how he miss it

So narcissistic, feedin' you the lies

Tellin' you he love you, the whole time he lyin'

Told me keep it real, and ****, that's the irony

Damn, why you ain't tell me you was tired of me?

You've got to cover it up

You've got to play your own game

You've got to cover it up

Don't let them know what you're thinkin'

I bet you never tell them how it feels

(If you gon' tell, tell it all, ****)

I'll bet you never even try to be real

(You'll never be my downfall, ****)

Fool me once

I guess that's life

But you ain't fuckin' with a dummy

So it won't be twice

Said you wouldn't, but you did

And that shit hurt

Any **** put me last

Gotta feel me first

Fool me once

I guess that's life

But you ain't fuckin' with a dummy

So it won't be twice

Said you wouldn't, but you did

And that shit hurt

Any **** put me last

Gotta feel me first

Gotta feel me first

You know what's worst

Go from buildin' sand castles

To feelin' like dirt

Go from talkin' everyday

To fall asleep in your shirt

Your mama always send a text

Like I hope it'll work

But I'm on to the next thing

Wish I was a ****, let my nuts hang

And act all nonchalant

Leavin' smart remarks

Or actin' real, real dumb

When my ass caught up

**** please

You can be down on your knees

In a bed of sunflowers

And a iced out ring

Alex and Ani gifts

Salt and vinegar chips

All of my favorite shit

And I'ma still fuckin' dip

I'm so sick of your shit

Good dictatorship

But I never let another **** try to rule this

Act so clueless

When they mention your name

Lose some, win some

It's a part of the game

You got to cover it up

You'll have to play your own game

You've got to cover it up

Don't let them know what you're thinkin'

I bet you never tell them how it feels

(If you gon' tell it, tell it all, ****)

I bet you never even try to be real

(With or without you, I'm a ball, ****)

Fool me once

I guess that's life

But you ain't fuckin' with a dummy

So it won't be twice

Said you wouldn't, but you did

And that shit hurt

Any **** put me last

Gotta feel me first

Fool me once

I guess that's life

But you ain't fuckin' with a dummy

So it won't be twice

It won't be twice

It won't be twice

Damn, I thought I was your wife, ****

I let you get to me once now, baby

But I'll never let you in again

(I thought this was for life, ****)

I let you get to me once now, baby

But I'll never let you in again

(I guess my homegirls is right, ****)

I let you get to me once now, baby

But I'll never let you in again

I let you get to me once now, baby

But I'll never let you in again

You got to cover it up

You'll have to play your own game

You've got to cover it up

Don't let them know what you're thinkin'

I bet you never tell them how it feels

I'll bet you never even try to be real
