Brian McKnight
Played Yourself
[Spoken Intro: Rodney Jerkins]
I like that, check it out
Darkchild, nana, 2K...
All day, every day
Brian McKnight and RJ, come on

[Verse 1: Brian McKnight]
All you do is tell me lies
Can't you see I'm not surprised
That you think that I'm a fool, hey
'Cause you think that no one sees
And you think you're playin' me
I just think that you're confused
You're playin' you baby

[Chorus: Brian McKnight]
You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way
You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way

[Verse 2: Brian McKnight]
She was your best friend in your eyes
But she told me the flip side
Guess she wanted in my life
If you would've seen her plan
You would've known I was the man
That she desired to have
You were too blind to see
[Pre-Chorus: Brian McKnight]
I waited
Long enough for you to throw your cards
You played it
But playin' didn't get you very far

[Chorus: Brian McKnight]
You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way
And you didn't think that I would catch you
You didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way
You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way
And you didn't think that I would catch you
You didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself

[Bridge: Brian McKnight & Rodney Jerkins]
I waited
Dance with me, come on, dance with me
Dance with me
You played it
Dance with me, come on, come on, dance with me
I waited
I like the way you dance with me
Let me see you dance with me
You played it
Darkchild, Brian McKnight
[Chorus: Brian McKnight]
You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way
You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way

You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way
You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way

You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way
You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way
You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way
You didn't think that I would catch you
And you didn't know how I knew
You didn't think your girl would tell on you
You played yourself that way
