[INTRO]
Listen up, ladies; I got a question and this question demands an answer right now!
Why do some of you, not all of you, but most of you get close to a guy?
I mean, real close
You come to him for everything
Every little problem you have, you talk to him and he's there
You need something, he's there
At the last minute your boyfriend ditch you and guess what?
This other guy is there
HE'S THERE, while they're NOT there
But then this guy, who's always been there for you, lets you know, "Look, I've got feelings for you that go beyond being a friend."
What do you say to him? "No, you're like my brother," or "You're like my best friend!"
Stupid ho, ain't that who you supposed to want to be with, your best friend?
The person who's looking out for your best interests, huh? Huh?!
Think about it and after you think about it, make a change about it
[EDDIE CAINE]
You see, I wrote a song for you but I won't record it
The embarra**ment of rejection, I just can't afford it
I wrote a song for you but I won't record it
The embarra**ment of rejection, I just can't afford it
But here I am rapping to ask you one question - yo, tell me what happened?
Aqua 8s and Heartaches, a couple missed phone calls, texts is unanswered, I'm confessing to a stone wall
She ain't even budge when push came to shove
I mean, she ain't even flinch when I said the word "love."
So I'm guessing she heard that a thousand times, but who's counting?
Been prepping myself to move mountains
It started like this a yes shy from being Mrs
You can't imagine how I felt when Imani jumped ship cause most times us was the reason why we smile
Converse for hours, hang up, and hit redial
And even when we fight, we could fight to make it right
We send each other song lyrics before we went to bed at night
That's "Ordinary Love sh**" when everybody bu*ting (Budden) in
From friends to cousins like they wanna see you suffering
It's nothing when you leave cause I'll take you back
The fact you don't feel the same, it makes me fade to back
But wait, who the f** is this texting me at 4:46 in the morning, crack of dawn, I'm yawning
I wipe the crust from my eye, I see your nickname on the screen and ask myself "Why?"
First I lose, then I lose, then I'm losing again
How come I can never win and be more than your friend?
I mean, when you start to crack and your world is caving in you scroll through your contacts, find my name, and hit send
And I answer
My best mans said you cancer
See, I be thinking ring on it. I be thinking Pampers
That's why I'm starting to hate getting messages from you
I forget about Lorraine, Stacy, and what's her name?
I claim to be your Superman, the cliche man in tights
There's another man? I'm tight
Am I your man of steel?
Yeah, I'm a man but still checking if the script is right
It's f**ed up when Lois Lane slip you kryptonite
Wishing on the same star but it's just a different night
If you just believe, I swear that we'd be just as tight
Just to spite, one day you might stop the leaving
Apply pressure, you sure to stop the bleeding
My heart just stopped beating, I wish you was the one for me
I even thought you'd have a daughter or a son for me
I can't kick that special feeling from the summer
I sit and wonder, when them angels gon' call my number?
But it's always you, I swear it's always you
And I just finished telling n***a Luck that we was through
You my runaway bride, I know you might be scared
But the chemisty is there like Julia and Gere
I'm here, but only when you lonely
Replacement for homie, otherwise you don't know me
I'm cozy but how you gonna feel when I'm rich?
When the problems that exist are France and Saks Fifth?
By then you'll probably be a distant memory, a friend of me
Forgotten, drowned in rivers of Hennessy
I won't have time then
Victim of drunk dialing
You'll be stranded in my old phone
Washed away on the island
Plied in with names I once mentioned in a song
Replaced by models? It won't be long
I said, it won't be long
Replaced by models? It won't be long
Yeah, it won't be long
