Did I ever tell you 'bout the person that ruined me? And that's probably the reason you feel like you're not gettin' through to me Before I learned to fuck, yeah, I learned about sex with her Never cheated, was faithful and honest I wasted my best with her I gave her all of me, I gave her loyalty She was close to everybody that was close to me Said, she'd rather take her life than disappoint me I guess she's dead to me She gave me five long years, 21 lies And a pussy that just follow both her wanderin' eyes Since then, I've made a point of tellin' myself "If she could do it, so can someone else" Guess the things that I've seen They make it hard to love Ooh, they make it hard to love And now a nigga like me Maybe, I'm hard to love Ooh-ooh-ooh, maybe, I'm hard to love Feels like every one I loved just did me dirt It started with my mom, then every girl after that just made it worse My mother was my partner 'Til she married a man she barely knew and let him treat me how he wants to Abandonment issues, intimacy issues You wonder why I can't admit it when I miss you I know it ain't easy lovin' me But I don't want you givin' up on me Forgive me for the things that I've seen That make it hard to love, babe Ooh, they make it hard to love And now a nigga like me Maybe, I'm hard to love Ooh-ooh-ooh, maybe, I'm hard to love Just thinking 'bout it makes me feel weak
