[Verse 1]
Why did you hold me on and try to play me?
I thought you were special, boy
You tried to make so much game
You got caught up in your face
Now, all you can say is “I’m sorry”
But that’s not enough
[Chorus]
I don’t need you (No, no, I don't need you)
If you’re gonna do me wrong (Yeah)
I don’t want you
'Cause you gotta respect me
I don’t need you (Yeah)
If you’re gonna do me wrong
I don’t want you (No, babe)
'Cause you gotta respect me
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh yeah
Oh, yes, you do)
'Cause you gotta respect me
(Gotta respect me, yeah)
'Cause you gotta respect me
[Verse 2]
Why did you hold me on to disrespect me?
I thought you were faithful, oh yeah
You tried abusing my mind
Then tellin' me everything was fine
When all of the time, you were
Doin' your own thing, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Why didn’t you ever try (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
To make me feel alright
When all you did was lie? (Oh)
'Cause you gotta respect me (You need)
You need to hit the door
And don't call me no more
'Cause you will never change (You will never change)
'Cause you gotta respect me (I don't need you)
[Chorus]
I don’t need you (I don't need you)
If you’re gonna do me wrong (Hey)
I don’t want you (No, I don't want you, ay)
'Cause you gotta respect me
I don’t need you (I don't need you)
If you’re gonna do me wrong
I don’t want you (No, no way)
'Cause you gotta respect me
I don’t need you (Oh yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)
If you’re gonna do me wrong
I don’t want you
'Cause you gotta respect me
I don’t need you (I don't need you)
If you’re gonna do me wrong (No, no, no, no, no, no, no)
I don’t want you (Said I don't want you)
'Cause you gotta respect me (Yeah)
[Bridge]
All you did was lie
You will never change
All you did was lie
'Cause you gotta respect me
All you did was lie
You will never change
All you did was lie (All you did was lie)
'Cause you gotta respect me (I don't need you)
[Chorus]
I don’t need you (I don't need you)
If you’re gonna do me wrong
I don’t want you (Want you)
'Cause you gotta respect me (Me)
I don’t need you (I don't need you)
If you’re gonna do me wrong
I don’t want you
'Cause you gotta respect me
I don’t need you (I don't want you)
If you’re gonna do me wrong
I don’t want you (Hey, yeah)
'Cause you gotta respect me
I don’t need you (I don't want you, no, no)
If you’re gonna do me wrong (Yeah, yeah)
I don’t want you (I don't need you, no way)
'Cause you gotta respect me (Ay, ay, ay)
[Break]
All you did was lie
All you did was lie
You will never change
You will never change
All you did was lie (Ay, ay)
All you did was lie
You will never change
You will never change
'Cause you gotta respect me
[Chorus]
I don’t need you (Need)
If you’re gonna do me wrong (Me wrong)
I don’t want you (I don't want you)
'Cause you gotta respect me ('Cause you gotta respect me)
I don’t need you (Need me, yeah)
If you’re gonna do me wrong
