1 - If you were worried `bout where
I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don`t worry, you know that you got me
If you were worried `bout where
I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby, don`t worry you know that you got me
[Roots]
Somebody told me that this planet was small
We used to live in the same building on the same floor
And never met before until I`m overseas on tour
And peep this Ethiopian Queen from Philly
Taking classes abroad
She studying film in photo flash focus record
Said she working on a flick and could my clique do the score
She said she love my show in Paris at Elysй–‘ Montmartre
And that I stepped off the stage and took a piece of her heart
We knew from the start that things fall apart
Intentions shatter, she like, that shit don`t matter
When I get home, get at her, through letter, phone
Whatever, let`s link, let`s get together
Shit, you think not?
Think that Thought went home and forgot?
Time passed, we back in Philly, she up in my spot
Telling me the things I`m telling her is makin` her hot
Started building with her constantly `round the clock
Now she in my world like hip-hop, and keep telling me...
Repeat 1
[Roots]
Yo, I`m the type that`s always catchin` a flight
And sometimes I got to be out at the height of the night
And that`s when she flip and get on some ol`...
[Eryka]
Another loney night?
Seems like I`m on the side, you only lovin` your mic
I know you gotta get that paper daddy, keep that shit tight
But yo, I need some sort of love in my life, you dig me?
While politicin` with my sister from New York City
She said she know this ball player, and he think I`m pretty
Psych, I`m playin` boo, you know it`s just with you I`m stayin` boo
And when cats be poppin` game I don`t hear what they sayin`, boo
When you out there in the world, I`m still your girl
With all my classes I don`t have the time for life`s thrills
So when you sweatin` on stage, think of me when you rhyme
And don`t be listenin` to your homies, they be leadin` you blind
[Roots]
Yeah, so what you sayin`, I can trust you?
[Eryka]
Is you crazy? You my king, for real
[Both]
But sometimes, relationships get ill
[Eryka]
No doubt
Repeat 1
[Roots]
That snake could be that chick and that rat
Could be that cool cat that`s whisperin`
She`s trying to play you for the fool, black
If something`s on your chest then let it be known
See I`m not your "every-five-minutes" all on the phone
And on the topic of trust, it`s just a matter of fact
That people bite back, and fracture what`s intact
And they`ll forever be
I ain`t on some "Oh, I`m a celebrity"
I deal wit the real, so if it`s artificial, let it be
I seen people caught in love like whirlwinds
Listening to they squaws and listenin` to they girlfriends
That`s exactly the point where they whole world ends
Lies come in, that`s where the drama begins
And she like... yo
Repeat 1
