Somebody, somebody, somebody brought me out of it

Misery pleasury that I am in,

you just have me hanging on like a piece of threat

Do I have stupid written on my head?

I'm stuck at two can't get to one, I guess she won yeah

But I still love him, so, so, so-o-o-o



Ref.:

He don't need a reason to be touchin' on my body,

He be messin' with my mind, got me buggin' all the time

Got me tired of playin shackles and I cant get out

And it dont make no difference if I scream or shout.

He dont need a reason to come knockin, at my door

Got me beggin' him for me, I'm addicted, I'm addicted

And I'm tired of playing shackles and I can't get out

And it dont make no difference if i scream our shout



Somebody save me from myself, somebody please save me

Because i ne-e-e-ed help

So tellin me, tellin me, tellin me baby boy you come it?

If i gave just a little more of it,

you never have to worry bout where i've been

Cuz you're, you're the only one chekin' in, yeah

Im stuck at two, can't get to three, is this my destiny?

But i still love him, so so, so-o-o-o



Ref.



So baby, why do you do me this way, so baby why do you do me this way?

you got me, you got me down in a days,

You got me, you got me all in a craze.

No baby, no I can't take it no more,

See baby, sometimes I feel so unsure,

And baby I cant believe , that i do everything,

That I do for you, oh



Ref.



Damn

Whatever

Like im definite

Im done being your match

Okay

Done

Done

Done

Being your match
