Verse 1
You fooled me smooth, baby, made it an art,
Sold me dreams straight from your heart.
You acted the part, played sweet and kind,
While scheming behind that charming line.
You said you tricked me — isn’t that cute?
You tricked yourself, babe, the moment you blew the truth.
You slammed your own door on love so true,
Now the fool in the story, that’s you.
Chorus
I tried to love, but my sense of judgment was fucked up when I chose you.
Because you dropped the ball, fell to the side, and walked away, catching rides on another woman’s pride.
But it’s all good, we were good, but I’m a force without you.
Verse 2
You told your lies like lullabies,
Made me believe, now I realize.
That mask you wore began to slip,
Truth dripping slow from a poisoned lip.
You claimed a win, thought I was done,
But losing me means you lost the one.
You thought I’d cry, but I breakthrough,
My peace restored — I’m done with you.
Chorus
I tried to love, but my sense of judgment was fucked up when I chose you.
Because you dropped the ball, fell to the side, and walked away, catching rides on another woman’s pride.
But it’s all good, we were good, but I’m a force without you.
Bridge
You fooled yourself thinking I’d stay blind,
But I see it all now, clear in my mind.
You can have your lies, your borrowed fame,
But love don’t live there — just your shame.
You brag you tricked me, but here’s the cue:
You tricked yourself right out my view.
Final Chorus (Repeat & Fade)
I tried to love, but my sense of judgment was fucked up when I chose you.
Because you dropped the ball, fell to the side, and walked away, catching rides on another woman’s pride.
But it’s all good, we were good, but I’m a force without you.
Yeah, it’s all good, we were good —
Now I’m stronger without you.
(Echo fade: “A force without you… stronger without you…”)
