Chorus
Be careful where you go cause It might backfire
Be careful what they know cause It might backfire
Don't let your feelings show, It just might backfire
Cause you never know, When it might backfire

I never should of said I wouldn't, I knew it would backfire
I never should of said I couldn't, I knew it would backfire
The pain can live on, even after you've tried
The tongue is a sword, even words can backfire

Verse1
You can run around and keep spreading your lies
Like it's a full time gig, your 9 to 5
What we shared before was much alive
Let's bury this now, cause what we had just died

I've never cared to sleep where my girlfriends been
And if he ever creeped girl you can have him
I know his boys checkin but i'm looking pass them
Bird of a feather flock, Ha ha who's laughing

I use to ask how, I use to wonder why
Just couldn't understand this twisted life
There are some lessons that I have learned
You better guard yourself or you'll get burned

Verse2
Yea I remember things that we said
The very words today that I can say I regret
But you can keep talking just know that I don't care
Cause all of the drama, honey I put it to rest (yes)
Yes a waste of your breath, you took and you took until there was nothing left
And now there is no one for you to blame but yourself
And even though you blew it i still wish you the best

I use to wonder how, I use to ask why
Just couldn't understand this twisted life
There some lessons that I have learned
You better guard yourself or you'll get burned
