Lyrics
TAKE THE KNIFE OFF MY BACK
You smiled at me while planning lies
While you're making eyes to other guys
So smooth while you messed up my mind
Blind to all the ways you crossed the lines
I curse the fate that I stepped in
I wear you like a scar on my skin
Now I'm learning what it means to be stabbed
Gave you the keys I let down my guard
I didn't see you carving your name in my heart
Chorus
Take the knife off my back
I'm standing but I'm bleeding bad
Take the knife off my back
Payback is coming you can count on that
You had no remorse at the damage done
Just another schemed sugar dating fun
I'll rise from the wreck and write off the loss
You taught me pain but I learned the cost
Kept the receipts played it calm laid low
But I'll be cashin' in when karma shows at your door
Repeat Chorus
