[Chorus: Tulisa, Dappy]
This could have been perfect if you tried
Y-y-you just played me from the start
Thought you was worth, it but you lied
Why'd you stab me through my heart?
I know I made you hate me (Uh)
Just know I tried let you change me
Good girl love goin’ for the bad boys (Oh)
Now you wonder why they all go crazy (Yeah, brr)
You made it hard to trust
Guess love weren't made for us
Our love is dangerous
Wish you just played your part
[Verse 1: Dappy]
I spent so much time tryna build a connection
An arm and a leg just to get some affection
'Member when your life weren’t goin' so well
I spun it in a whole different direction
You know I find it hard to conduct myself
Sometimes but you wanna exploit that
Hence why I only talk on the beat
And when you've got enough chat, I play dumb and avoid that
She said her milkshake brings all the boys to the yard
But my bank card brought all the baddies to the shard
Alhamdulillah my money long
Some man are goin' through it but they blew it 'cause they had a Chrisean (Huh)
What can I say?
Toxic, but the sex is great
In an ideal world, you would've been my girl
But now it's too late (Late)
[Chorus: Tulisa, Dappy]
This could have been perfect if you tried (Tried)
Y-y-you just played me from the start (From the start)
Thought you was worth, it but you lied (You lied)
Why'd you stab me through my heart?
I know I made you hate me (Hate me)
Just know I tried let you change me (Let you change me)
Good girl love goin’ for the bad boys (Oh)
Now you wonder why they all go crazy (Yeah, brr)
You made it hard to trust
Guess love weren’t made for us
Our love is dangerous
Wish you just played your part
[Verse 2: Tulisa]
If you say I'm the one, say it with your chest
I said it the first time, I’m not second best
Told me you and her were done
You must have felt I was dumb
I should've done it when my friends told me run
[Verse 3: Fazer]
Bun them bitches, they don't know love (No)
Look at their relationships, they're all fucked (Fucked)
You put me through way too much
Now you wonder why niggas don’t trust
So trust me
See nuff mans girls do fuckery (Huh)
Certain dick make the gal move cruddy (Ah)
You could be outright pretty on the outside
But I ain't on it if the inside's ugly (Grr)
[Chorus: Tulisa, Dappy]
This could have been perfect if you tried (Oh)
Y-y-you just played me from the start (The start)
Thought you was worth, it but you lied (You lied)
Why'd you stab me through my heart?
I know I made you hate me (Hate me)
Just know I tried let you change me (Let you change me)
Good girl love goin' for the bad boys (Oh)
Now you wonder why they all go crazy (Yeah, brr)
You made it hard to trust
Guess love weren't made for us
Our love is dangerous
Wish you just played your part
[Outro: Tulisa]
I said it the first time, I'm not second best
I should've done it when my friends told me run
