Benú - Backwards (The Exorcism)

Took my love for granted
Skilled in deceit just like an art
Was it real or how you planned it
Playing ruthless games with my heart
No longer will I try to find
Answers to an unrequited love
Ya time is up
Go ahead and pack your stuff
Girl I had enough
Take it up with man above

Whoa!!! I tried I tried I tried I tried I tried
Tried to please you
Did everything but
Wasn't enough to appease you
Tell me what's a man to do?
Whoa!!! I tried I tried I tried I tried I tried
Tried to please you
Needed to please you
Did everything but
Wasn't enough to appease you
Tell me what's a man to do?
Bending over backwards
Got me outside myself
Bending over backwards
I won't deny myself
Bending over backwards
Got me outside myself
Bending over backwards
I won't deny myself

I gave you my breath
Till there was none left
But you wasn't impressed
Just thinking bout
The shit that I did
Moved you in my crib
When you slumming
You act like it was nothing
I mean you're really something
Whole time you was just fronting
It's a shame
While I was playing my part
Girl you had my heart
Till death do us part
Do you remember
That's what we said with our words
But you got some nerve 
Just trying to curve
Just looking for the come up
You know you're really fucked up
You know you really fucked up
And now it's stuck
And maybe with time you'll learn to take responsibility
But until you do
You ain't for me you for these streets

Whoa!!! I tried I tried I tried I tried I tried
Tried to please you
Did everything but
Wasn't enough to appease you
Tell me what's a man to do?
Whoa!!! I tried I tried I tried I tried I tried
Tried to please you
Needed to please you
Did everything but
Wasn't enough to appease you
Tell me what's a man to do?
Bending over backwards
Got me outside myself
Bending over backwards
I won't deny myself
Bending over backwards
Got me outside myself
Bending over backwards
I won't deny myself

Well it's clear to me girl you've been buying time
While I was stuck on you
You had your next move
On your mind
We'll go ahead
I wish you well baby
Your type of stock
Ain't made for me lady
You draining me
Of all my energy
I can't let you play me
No more baby

Whoa!!! I tried I tried I tried I tried I tried
Tried to please you
Did everything but
Wasn't enough to appease you
Tell me what's a man to do?
Whoa!!! I tried I tried I tried I tried I tried
Tried to please you
Needed to please you
Did everything but
Wasn't enough to appease you
Tell me what's a man to do?
Bending over backwards
Got me outside myself
Bending over backwards
I won't deny myself
