Temptation

Can we admit you're too chicken to cum?
Standing in the mirror taking pictures for fun
Can we admit that you fucked with my energy?
Lovers from the start, now I'm ending with an enemy

You tore me up like paper then call me "Troublemaker"
I went further than them, it went deeper than that
You were the instigator, you set me up for later
I'm not letting it go, it's much deeper than that

I won't outstay my welcome, you can fade and you can crack
You can call me when you need me, I will never call you back

You can't forget what's been forgotten
You lie to them then lie to me
And I don't think about you often
You were just a fantasy
I can get my life back, watch your life unfold
You can watch me bounce back
You were never in control (Control)

Can we admit that you're spun out your mind?
Up for 90 hours, just wasting my time
Can we admit that you said you were into me?
Said I was a sequel when in fact I was a trilogy

You tore me up like paper then call me "Troublemaker"
I went further than them, it went deeper than that
You were the instigator, you set me up for later
I'm not letting it go, it's much deeper than that

I won't outstay my welcome, you can fade and you can crack
You can call me when you need me, I will never call you back

You can't forget what's been forgotten
You lie to them then lie to me
And I don't think about you often
You were just a fantasy
I can get my life back, watch your life unfold
You can watch me bounce back
You were never in control (Control)

Don't you backpedal
I said "Don't you backpedal"
Don't you backpedal, baby
'Cause you said what you said
Don't backpedal, baby
'Cause you said what you said
What you said, what you said

You can't forget what's been forgotten
You lie to them then lie to me
And I don't think about you often
You were just a fantasy
I can get my life back, watch your life unfold
You can watch me bounce back
You were never in control (Control)

Control

Kiss it better 

[Verse 1] You talk big, but you fold quick— Say sorry with lips, not a guilt trip. Nails long, I don’t throw fits, I just watch you sweat while I silk-slit. Mood rich, body cold like a glacier, Pull up slow, every look wanna taste her. You fumbled a queen? That’s major. Now kiss it better, do me a favour.

[Pre-Chorus] Ooh, yeah, it hurts, don’t it? Now you see what you lost, own it. Bet you miss this drip, don’t lie, You had the throne, now kiss goodbye.

[Chorus] Kiss it better, right where it stings, Beg for the heat while I flex my rings. You want the touch, gotta earn this leather— Broke my heart? Come kiss it better. Kiss it better, slow with the tongue, Talk that talk but you never did run. Now I’m the prize, no pressure— You want redemption? Kiss it better.

[Verse 2] He said "Damn, you cold" — I said "Colder," New man fine, hands all on my shoulder. You still dream of the nights I own, Now I'm booked and busy, fully grown. Put respect when you speak my name, All them lies? That’s a broke boy game. You ain't sorry, you just desperate, So get on your knees and kiss it—desperate.

[Pre-Chorus] Ooh, yeah, it hurts, don’t it? Now you see what you lost, own it. Bet you miss this drip, don’t lie, You had the throne, now kiss goodbye.

[Chorus] Kiss it better, right where it stings, Beg for the heat while I flex my rings. You want the touch, gotta earn this leather— Broke my heart? Come kiss it better. Kiss it better, slow with the tongue, Talk that talk but you never did run. Now I’m the prize, no pressure— You want redemption? Kiss it better.

[Verse 3 – Rap Flow] Yeah— You did dirt, now it’s clean-up time, Gotta pay for the tears with the back of your spine. Whole new vibe, I’m the upgrade choice, And I don’t get played—I raise my voice. Now it’s Birkin steps and attitude heavy, Lookin’ like sin in a dress so deadly. Tried to ghost me, now you haunted, clever— Tell your lil’ ego: kiss it better.

[Chorus – outro] Kiss it better, right where it stings, Beg for the heat while I flex my rings. You want the touch, gotta earn this leather— Broke my heart? Come kiss it better. Kiss it better, slow with the tongue, Talk that talk but you never did run. Now I’m the prize, no pressure— You want redemption? Kiss it better.
