Resentment - Beyoncé

I wish I could believe you, then I’d be alright
But now everything you told me really don’t apply to the way I feel inside
Loving you was easy once upon a time
But now my suspicions of you have multiplied
And it’s all because you lied

I only give you a hard time
Cause I can’t go on and pretend like I haven’t tried to forget this
But I’m much too full of resentment

Just can’t seem to get over the way you hurt me
Don’t know how you gave another who didn’t mean a thing
The very thing you gave to me
I thought I could forgive you, and I know you’ve changed
As much as I want to trust you, I know it ain’t the same
And it’s all because you lied

I only give you a hard time
Cause I can’t go on and pretend like I haven’t tried to forget this
But I’m much too full of resentment

I may never understand why
I’m doing the best that I can
And I tried, and I tried to forget this
But I’m much too full of resentment

I’ll always remember feeling like I was no good
Like I couldn’t do it for you like your mistress could
And it’s all because you lied
Loved you more than another, more than my own life
But that part of me I gave you, it was sacrificed
And it’s all because you lied

[Chorus]I only give you a hard time
Cause I can’t go on and pretend like I haven’t tried to forget this
But I’m much too full of resentment

I know she was attractive, but I was here first
Been riding with you for 6 years
Why did I deserve to be treated this way by you?
I know you’re probably thinking, “What’s up with B?”
I been crying for too long, what did you do to me?
I used to be so strong, but now you took my soul
I’m crying, can’t stop crying
Can’t stop crying
You could’ve told me you wasn’t happy
I know you didn’t wanna hurt me
But look what you’ve done to me now
I gotta look at her in her eyes and see she’s had half of me
How could you lie?
