[Intro]
Ooh, ooh-ooh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
[Verse 1]
Boy ain't it you who left me with no remedy?
And now you’re switchin' it up with no guarantee
I know you'll hit a late-night text at 1:03
You think I miss the feeling of your body next to me?
You must be out of your mind to be testing me (To be testing me)
Matter fact I still find it way too hard to believe (Too hard to believe)
That I let somebody like you drain my energy
That we had history, ’cause in every memory
[Chorus]
You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I evеr let this happen? (Oh-oh-oh)
You werе lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? (Oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
See I won't stop ’til I got you down on your knees
I won’t stop until you're beggin’ for me, beggin' for me, please
See I can't stop until you're manifestin’, manifestin' me
And I can't stop until I'm substitute to the air that you breathe
'Cause everything's remindin' me of how we used to be
I know your favorite movie, watched it 'til we fell asleep
And every mornin', wake up to your body top of me
But you be doin' sneaky shit, you thought I wouldn't see
[Chorus]
You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? (Oh-oh-oh)
You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? (Oh-oh-oh)
[Bridge]
And now you're circling my past?
"If you act right, I'll be your last"
Messed it all up so don't react
When I come through and I'm detached
Wanna hear you play on repeat
When you say my name in defeat
Baby I gave the best of me
Even in every memory
[Chorus]
You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? (Oh-oh-oh)
You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? (Oh-oh-oh)
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah (How could I ever let this happen?)
Oh-woah, oh (How could I ever let this happen?)
Oh-woah, oh
