Hurt Lyrics by B.o.B

Elements

2015

[Hook]
The closer that you get
The closer that you get to me
That's just a road that gon' hurt you
Hurt you
I know I said some shit
I know I said some shit I don't mean
But, girl, we know that's what words do
Words do
Your body says it first, (your body says it first)
So when you open up your lips to speak
Just know I already heard you
Heard you
I told you I ain't shit
But still you wanna be with me
We both know I don't deserve you
I'm only gon' hurt you

[Verse]
I'm not gon' change for you, you can't fix me cause I'm not broken
Before you develop feelings, let's put the real in the open
You could give me your heart, that still don't mean that I own it
It's like walking the tightrope between logic and our emotions
I don't know why the story's always the same
Two people fall in love 'til they go separate ways
I'm savage by nature, so blame my creator
So much pussy thrown at me I need a coordinator
Eh, every girl thinks she's the 100th girl I done slept with
When I ain't even got enough time to check all my messages
Look, I grew up around woman
So I never felt the need to rush and get settled down with 'em
I know, I don't speak for all men, I speak for me
So you don't commit your life to someone who ain't gon' keep it a G
Embrace the good, the bad, the ugly
'Cause there's certain shit in this man that just can't adjusted
I know, the truth is like alcohol
You think you can handle it 'til you can't stand at all
Tryna manage with a damaged heart
If every nigga ain't shit, then really who's the fault?
We both know what we here to do
I guess my bluntness is offending you
I guess I'm young and hypocritical
I want the sex but not the spiritual residue
And you want something magical
Cartoon and fairytales, conditioning what come natural
Out of touch with the actual, using sex as collateral
Confusion occurs when one's own beliefs are incompatible

[Bridge]
Fights all the time, you say you fine
I know you lyin', it's on your mind
And I ain't blind, I often find
You don't have to cut the knot, just untie the line

[Hook]
The closer that you get
The closer that you get to me
That's just a road that gon' hurt you
Hurt you
I know I said some shit
I know I said some shit I don't mean
But, girl, we know that's what words do
Words do
Your body says it first, (your body says it first)
So when you open up your lips to speak
Just know I already heard you
Heard you
I told you I ain't shit
But still you wanna be with me
We both know I don't deserve you
I'm only gon' hurt you
