"Lackin'" lyrics

"Lackin'"

Boy ain't it you who left me with no remedy?
And now you're switchin' it up with no guarantee
I know you'll hit a late-night text at 1:03
You think I miss the feeling of your body next to me?
You must be out of your mind to be testing me
Matter fact I still find it way too hard to believe
That I let somebody like you drain my energy
That we had history, 'cause in every memory

You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then Used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? Oh
You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? Oh

See I won't stop 'til I got you down on your knees
I won't stop until you're beggin' for me, beggin' for me please
See I can't stop until you're manifestin', manifestin' me
And I can't stop until I'm substitute to the air that you breathe
'Cause everything's remindin' me of how we used to be
I know your favorite movie, watched it 'til we fell asleep
And every mornin', wake up to your body top of me
But you be doin' sneaky shit you thought I wouldn't see

You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? Oh
You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? Oh

And now you're circling my past?
"If you act right, I'll be your last"
Messed it all up so don't react
When I come through and I'm detached
Wanna hear you play on repeat
When you say my name in defeat
Baby I gave the best of me
Even in every memory

You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? Oh
You were lackin', lackin'
Every part you were lackin'
Back then used to hold it back in
How could I ever let this happen? Oh
