Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You had me, you lost me

You're wasted, you cost me

I don't want you here messin' with my mind

[Verse 2]

Spittin' in my eyes, and I still see

Tried to keep me down, I'm breakin' free

I don't want no part in your next fix

Someone need to tell you, this is it

[Verse 3]

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 makin' money, you took mine

[Verse 4]

You had me, you lost me

You're wasted, you cost me

I don't want you here messin' with my mind

I've realized in time

Through my eyes

I'm not blind

I've seen it before, I'm takin' back my life

[Verse 5]

You tried to trade on my naivety

But the things you do and say embarrass me

Seem once upon a time I was your fool

But the one I leave behind, he is you

[Verse 6]

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 makin' money, you took mine

[Verse 7]

You had me, you lost me

You're wasted, you cost me

I don't want you here messin' with my mind

I've realized in time

That my eyes are not blind

I've seen it before, I'm takin' back my life

[Verse 8]

Vodka and a packet of cigarettes

That's all it used to be but now

You're sniffin' on snow when you're feelin' low

Suffocating dream 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 support

Mmm hmm

[Verse 9]

You had me, you lost me

You wasted, you cost me

I don't want you here messin' with my mind

I've realized in time

That my eyes are not blind

I've seen it before, I'm takin' back my life

[Verse 10]

Takin' it back, I'm takin' it back

Takin' back my life

Takin' it back, I'm takin' it back

Takin' back my life

[Verse 11]

Ain't nobody got no business

Stressin' all the time

Takin' it back, I'm takin' it back

Takin' back my life

[Verse 12]

You had me, you lost me

You wasted, you cost me

I don't want you here messin' with my mind

I've realized in time

That my eyes are not blind

I've seen it before, I'm takin' back my life

[Verse 13]

Takin' it back, I'm takin' it back

Takin' back my life

Takin' it back, I'm takin' it back

Takin' back my life

[Verse 14]

Ain't nobody got no business

Stressin' all the time

Takin' it back, I'm takin' it back

Takin' back my life
