I remember, way back, way back when 
I said I never wanna see your face again 
Cause you were loving, yes you loving someone else 
And I knew, yes I knew I could control myself 
And now they bring you back into my life again 
And so I put on a face just like your friends 
But I think you know, oh yes you know what's going on 
Cause the feelings of me, oh yes of me are burning strong 

But I will never be your stepping stone 
Take it all or leave me alone 
I will never be your stepping stone 
I'm standing up or I'm on my own 

You used to call me up from time to time 
And it would be so hard for me not to cross the line 
The words of love lay on my lips just like a curse 
And I knew, oh yes I knew it would only make it worse 
And now you have the nerve to play along 
Just like the mystro beats in his song 
You get your kicks, you get your kicks from playing me 
And the less you give, the more I want so foolish of me 

But I will never be your stepping stone 
Take it all or leave me alone 
I will never be your stepping stone 
I'm standing up or I'm on my own 

No I will never be your stepping stone 
Take it all or leave me alone 
I will never be your stepping stone 
I'm standing up or I'm on my own 

Never be your stepping stone 
Take it all or leave me alone 
I will never be your stepping stone 
I'm standing up or I'm on my own
