Angie Stone – I Can't Take It lyrics

[Verse]
Got a lot of things I wanna say to you but it takes time
I need to focus on my energy and use my mind
And be careful of this what I might say
Don't wanna push you away 'cause I want you to stay

[Verse]
But every time I see you with somebody new
My pressure rises and blood it seems to run right through
Like a raging tsunami swallowing up the beaches sand
It fuses my heart I need you to understand

[Chorus:]
Baby that I can't take it when I see you
With another pretending to be like you
So picture perfect and happy knowing that
I love you and you love me

[Verse]
Sometimes I feel like I just wanna run away and be alone
And give my heart to someone that will sit it on a throne
And all the lovey dovey s*** thing games we played
Then I remember that we could never be abstain

[Verse]
But just like Cinderella acted up for all that track
There was a promise made that they would come as two shall pass
Like Lauryn and Roberta's killing me softly
I'm tired of doing you I'm about to do me

[Chorus:]
Baby that I can't take it when I see you
With another pretending to be like you
So picture perfect and happy knowing that
I love you and you love me

[Bridge:]
I'm realizing that love is still a mistery
I'm strong and nothing I love get the best of me
I'm in the treacherous boat we ridin' to victory
I'm closing baby you are history

[Chorus x3]
Baby that I can't take it when I see you
With another pretending to be like you
So picture perfect and happy knowing that
I love you and you love me
