[Intro]
All right. How many of you have ever been lied to? I'm sure anyone has. We all have. But this next song, is from my last album: B'day. And I've never performed this song before, I'm doing this especially for encore. Ya'll don't mind if I sit right here, huh? Well, it talks about a relationship, after you've been lied to. And you're trying your best to forgive, it's really difficult, 'cause you never forget. It's called resentment
[Verse 1]
I wish I could believe you, thеn I'll be alright
But now, everything you told mе really don't apply
To the way I feel inside
Lovin' you was easy once upon a time
But now, my suspicions of you have multiplied
And it's all because you lied
[Chorus]
I only give you a hard time
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like
I haven't tried to forget this
But I'm much too full of resentment
[Verse 2]
Just can't seem to get over (Ooh)
The way you hurt me (Ooh)
Don't know how you gave another
Who didn't mean a thing, no (Mean a thing)
The very thing you gave to me (Ooh)
I thought I could forgive you (Ooh)
And I know you've changed (Ooh)
As much as I wanna trust you (Ooh)
I know it ain't the same (It ain't the same)
And it's all because you lied
[Chorus]
I only give you a hard time (Hard time, ooh)
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like (Ooh)
I haven't tried to forget this (Forget this, ooh)
But I'm much too full of resentment (I'm much too full of resentment)
I may never understand why (Why)
I'm doin' the best that I can, and I (Ooh)
I tried and I tried to forget this (Forget this, ooh)
But I'm much too full of resentment (Ooh, you lied)
[Bridge]
I'll always remember feelin' (You lied)
Like I was no good (You lied)
Like I couldn't do it for you (You lied)
Like that whack bitch could (Ooh)
And it's all because you lied
I loved you more than ever (You lied)
More than my own life (You lied)
The best part of me I gave you (You lied)
It was sacrificed (Sacrificed)
And it's all because you lied
You lied
You lied
You lied, oh
[Outro]
I know she was attractive, but I was here first
Been ridin' with you for six years
Why did I deserve to be treated this way by you?
I know you're probably thinkin', "What's up with B?"
I'm cryin', can't stop cryin', can't stop cryin'
You could've told me you weren't happy
I know you didn't wanna hurt me
But look what you've done to me now
I gotta look at her in her eyes (You lied, you lied)
And see she's had half of me (You lied)
She ain't even half of me
Look what you've done to me now
And it's all because you lied
Thank you so much
