Cynthia Erivo You First (a Cappella)
[Intro]
I'll apologise, I swear I will
But you first
I'll bring back your smile, your joy to fill
But you first
I'll turn a blind eye while with your beauty you beguile
But you first
But you
My deception I'll admit, all bad habits I'll quit
But you first
I'll still all my wit which I offend you with
But you first
I'll put my best foot first, but you start and I'll return
Put me first
[Verse]
It's not fair
You ask me to forgive, but how can I when you don't care?
You say the right things, but when it's time to show up, you're nowhere
So I won't move till you do
Test me and I'll prove it, no
It's not fair
You kiss me, then you leave, you want me, but you're never there
I pour in all of me, you drink it all, but then you disappear
So I rеfuse to move till you do
Test mе and I'll prove it, prove it, no
[Bridge]
And this is what you deserve
All my pain in return
From this flame to a burn
And this is what you deserve
(It's not fair) This is what you deserve (You kiss me, then you leave, you want me, but you're never there)
All my pain in return (I pour in all of me, you drink it all, but then you disappear)
From this flame to a burn (So I refuse to move till you do, test me and I'll prove it, no)
This is what you deserve
[Outro]
Though my stubbornness hurt me
You don't deserve my mercy
So you first
My revenge I'll conspire
Prisoner of my own ire
But, still, you first
One day I might learn
One's forgiveness you cannot earn
But, till then, you first, mm
You first
