Guilty Lyrics by Essosa

Essie’s World

2024

[Verse 1]
I met this guy
On the poolside
Bright like a summer sun
And a gleam in his eye
That's how I fell, uh
Folded like hell
Lord did I know
This weren't gonna end well

[Pre-Chorus]
You once had passion
But it's over
And I did what I could to bring me closure
Could I forgiven you
For what you put me through?
And after all this time
You tempted me to a bed of lies

[Chorus]
What could I say?
What could I do?
She was all up in the club accusing me of loving you, and
She said she's been with you all of this time
Should have known right from the jump that you was never only mine

[Verse 2]
You think that you would lay low
Sneakin' round in broad daylight?
Thank god that no one caught you
No issue playing with my life
I swear
I knew something weren't right
She came and called me out my name, oh
But she can't make me feel guilty, no

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause there was attraction
Now it's over
And I did what I could to get me sober
I've not forgotten you
For all you put me through
Cause after all this time
You tempted me to a bed of lies

[Chorus]
What could I say?
What could I do?
She was all up in the club accusing me of loving you, and
She said she's been with you all of this time
Should have known right from the jump that you was never only mine

[Outro]
Ooh
Ooh
All up in the club accusing me of loving you
Ooh
Ooh
Known right from the jump that you was never only mine
