You used to love them
Leave them, kiss them
Break their hearts
But now I got you in my arms

You used to get them,
Trick them, diss them
Do them wrong,
But now your playa days are gone

Everybody knew about you baby
And the games you played
Couldn't count the names
Faces and numbers
Nor the times you laid down

But somebody knew about you baby
And that you'd change
It was me 'cause I could see
My love would turn you around

You used to love them
Leave them, kiss them
Break their hearts
But now I got you in my arms

You used to get them
Trick them, diss them
Do them wrong,
But now your playa days are gone

I always say never say never boy
But you did
That's when I took your mind
And flipped the script

Your boys talkin' 'bout you're falling off
And that you're whipped
But who are they
To say
When it's all my love I give to you

You used to love them
Leave them, kiss them
Break their hearts,
But now I got you in my arms

You used to get them
Trick them, diss them
Do them wrong,
But now your playa days are gone
