From the beginning (from the beginning)

Adding on so much weight (yeah)
Had me thinking that I was average (thinking I was average)
When you really to blame

How you gonna throw it away (how)?
How you gonna sit and act like it was nothin' (how)?

How you gonna make it so damn hard to explain?

'Cause right now I see you only 'bout yourself

But you lied to me, lied to me
You gotta be mental in the head

Adding on so much weight (yeah)
