Once a Fool

[Chorus: Beyoncé & LaTavia / Kelly & LeToya]
I was once a fool, too
I know what he's puttin' you through
So don't tell me what I should do
I ain't gon' end up like you
His love has gotten you blind
Wake up and use your mind
I let you do your thing
Stop playa hatin' on me

[Verse 1: Beyoncé]
Kelly, ain't it a shame?
That boy you call your man, he's runnin' game
Don't mean to call you out, but you gettin' played
I'm just lookin' out, don't let him do you that way

[Chorus: Beyoncé & LaTavia / Kelly & LeToya]
I was once a fool, too
I know what he's puttin' you through
So don't tell me what I should do
I ain't gon' end up like you
His love has gotten you blind
Wake up and use your mind
I let you do your thing
Stop playa hatin' on me

[Verse 2: Kelly]
Beyoncé, oh, Beyoncé, yeah-yeah
Don't talk about my man, 'cause yours was fade
You woke up, he was sprung, you were oh so in love
But I let you be, so let me be alone
Let me be alone

[Bridge: Beyoncé]
Whoa, no way will I stay
And watch him play you for a fool
Don't let a player play on you

[Chorus: Beyoncé & LaTavia / Kelly & LeToya]
I was once a fool, too
I know what he's puttin' you through
So don't tell me what I should do
I ain't gon' end up like you
His love has gotten you blind
Wake up and use your mind
I let you do your thing
Stop playa hatin' on me

[Break: Beyoncé & Kelly]
I'm just lookin' out
You're my girl, no doubt
I know how men can be
I just think he loves me
Don't be a fool no more
I can't let him go
I'm tryna make you see
I still think he loves me

[Verse 3: William Floyd]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Now, check it
You don't know how I feel, you need to stop trippin'
You don't even know the deal, for real
Nothin' but love and respect for this girl
That's why she's laced with these diamonds and pearls
Now I know she's been hurt in the past
Gon' find a way to make this love affair last
You got too much time on your hands
You need to stop hatin' and find your own man
Pecan-tanned first child, love the sand
Baby girl, for you I tip all this land
'Gainst the forces of Satan, we gotta make a stand
We could be lovers and the best of friends
A legion of swords couldn't make me retreat
That just shows how much your love inspires me
When I look in your eyes and I know there's a smile
Put it all together, you're my Destiny's Child

[Chorus: Beyoncé & LaTavia / Kelly & LeToya]
I was once a fool, too
I know what he's puttin' you through
So don't tell me what I should do
I ain't gon' end up like you
His love has gotten you blind
Wake up and use your mind
I let you do your thing
Stop playa hatin' on me
I was once a fool, too
I know what he's puttin' you through
So don't tell me what I should do
I ain't gon' end up like you
His love has gotten you blind
Wake up and use your mind
I let you do your thing
Stop playa hatin' on me
