[Chorus]
He really thought he really had a hold on me
He really thought he really had control of me
He really thought he really had control of me
He really thought he really had control of me
He really thought he really had a hold on me
He really thought he really had control of me
He really thought he really had control of me
He really thought he really had control of me
He really thought he really had a hold on me
He really thought he really had control of me
He really thought he really had control of me
He really thought he really had control of me
[Verse 1]
This time around I'll never get bit
Though you really wanna fix me
This time around you're making me sick
Though you really wanna get me
Somebody's out, somebody's out to get me
They really wanna fix me, they really wanna hit me
But this time around I'm taking no shit
Though you really wanna get me, you really wanna fix me

[Chorus]
He really thought he really had a hold on me
He really thought, they thought they really had control of me
He really thought he really had control of me
He really thought, they thought they had control of me

[Verse 2]
This time around, not gonna get bit
Though you really wanna get me
But this time around I'm taking no shit
Though you really wanna fix me
Somebody's out, somebody's out to use me
They really want to use me, then falsely accuse me
This time around don't treat me like spit
Though you really can't control me, you really can't control me
[Chorus]
He really thought he really had a hold on me
He really thought, they thought they really had control of me
He really thought he really had a hold on me
He really thought, they thought they really had control of me
(Get me and fix me)
He really thought he really had a hold on me
He really thought, they thought they really had control of me
He really thought he really had a hold on me
He really thought, they thought they really could control me
