You had me, you lost me
You're wasted, you cost me
I don't want you here
Messing with my mind

Spitting in my eyes and I still see
Tried to keep me down, I'm breaking free
I don't want no part in your next fix
Someone needs to tell you, this is it

Hey listen, you'll be missin'
Out on all my love and my kissing
Make your mistakes on your own time
When you come down, you're just no good to have around
Instead of making money, you took mine

You had me, you lost me
You're wasted, you cost me
I don't want you here
Messing with my mind

I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life

You tried to trade on my naivete
But the things you do and say embarrass me
See once upon a time, I was your fool
But the one I leave behind is you

Hey listen, you'll be missin'
Out on all my love and my kissing
Make your mistakes on your own time
When you come down, you're just no good to have around
Instead of making money, you took mine

You had me, you lost me
You're wasted, you cost me
I don't want you here
Messing with my mind

I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life

Vodka and a packet of cigarettes
That's all it used to be but now
You're sniffing on snow when you're feeling low
Suffocating dreams that could have been

Maybe for a minute I was down with that
But it didn't take long for me to see the light
You swore you had control of it
But when I stepped back you slipped on your supply

You had me, you lost me
You're wasted, you cost me
I don't want you here
Messing with my mind

I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life

Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life

Ain't nobody got no business
Stressing all the time
Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life

You had me, you lost me
You're wasted, you cost me
I don't want you here
Messing with my mind

I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life

Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life

Ain't nobody got no business
Stressing all the time
Taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
