I Play Dirty Now
FUCK YOU, FUCK ME (I PLAY DIRTY NOW) (Intro) Yeah… I tried so hard. Tell me, what the fuck did it get me? Left in the cold, another heart empty. Fuck love. I play dirty now. (Verse 1) I try so hard, but it all comes down to nothing, Give somebody my heart, they leave me with a fucking concussion. Every time I trust, somebody proves me wrong, Another cheating-ass story, another sad-ass song. I gave you my time, gave you all I had, You took my best days and turned them fucking bad. Now I’m looking in the mirror like, “Who the hell am I?” Got a smile on my face, but there’s murder in my eyes. Confidence fading, now I’m building it back, Turned my heart into stone, put my feelings in a sack. You wanted a good man, then you treated him like trash, Now I’m done being loyal while you run around and laugh. (Pre-Chorus) I bent till I broke, now I’m done being nice, Paid for your lies with my own damn life. You made me believe love was something to fear, Now the person I was ain’t the person standing here. (Chorus) FUCK LOVE! I don’t wanna feel, Tired of fake promises, tired of what’s real. I gave you my heart, you left me to bleed, Now I put myself first, give a damn what you need. Fuck you, fuck me, fuck the games we play, I tried doing right, still got thrown away. Confidence up, got a cold new view, You taught me how to play dirty—now look what you made me do. (Verse 2) Now I walk in the room like I own my name, No more begging for attention, no more chasing a flame. I don’t check your phone, don’t ask where you’ve been, If you wanna play games, I ain’t playing to win. I’m playing for myself, got my eyes on the prize, Learned the hard way that love comes dressed in disguise. Maybe I’m the villain in the story you tell, But you helped write the chapters when you put me through hell. I ain’t saying I’m perfect, got my faults, got my scars, I’ve been breaking my own heart trying to fix ours. Now I’m cutting the strings, letting go of the past, If you wanted something real, you should’ve made it last. (Pre-Chorus) I bent till I broke, now I’m done being nice, Paid for your lies with my own damn life. You made me believe love was something to fear, Now the person I was ain’t the person standing here. (Chorus) FUCK LOVE! I don’t wanna feel, Tired of fake promises, tired of what’s real. I gave you my heart, you left me to bleed, Now I put myself first, give a damn what you need. Fuck you, fuck me, fuck the games we play, I tried doing right, still got thrown away. Confidence up, got a cold new view, You taught me how to play dirty—now look what you made me do. (Bridge) Maybe I cared too much, maybe you cared too little, Maybe we were both just pieces in the middle. I can’t blame you forever for the person I became, But I’ll never be that fool who keeps repeating the same. Fuck you for the lies, fuck me for staying, Fuck all those nights I spent praying and waiting. I’m taking back my life, putting my pride back in place, You don’t get another chance to leave a scar on this face. (Outro) I tried so hard… And it still came down to nothing. Left or cheated… Same old fucking ending. But not this time. Fuck love. Fuck you. Fuck me for letting it happen. I play dirty now— But I play for myself.
