I always had a pretty good intuition
But now I can spot a motherfucker slippin'
From ten let-downs away

I always had an ear for when they're pullin' tricks
But now I hear the lie before it leaves their lips
I guess I got you to thank

Sometimes the more your eyes are tricked
The better that you'll see for it
What first felt like the end to me
Only gave me clarity

Did you think you'd have me, have me
Have me down, defenseless?
Honey you were just sharpening
Sharpening my senses

You really think that I'd be so broken
Be past mending?
Honey you were just sharpening
Sharpening my senses

Sharpening, sharpening my
Sharpening my senses

The walls are higher in the new place
Where I live
It's you that built em'
But you won't be coming in
Ironic, ain't it babe?

And even though I got some
Bitter on my teeth
It put me here
So it was worth the fuckery
It's just like they say

Sometimes the more your eyes are tricked
The better that you'll see for it
What first felt like the end to me
Only gave me clarity

Did you think you'd have me
Have me down, defenseless?
Honey you were just sharpening
Sharpening my senses

You really think that I'd be so broken
Be past mending?
Honey you were just sharpening
Sharpening my senses

Sharpening, sharpening my
Sharpening my senses
Sharpening, sharpening my
Sharpening my senses
