    Original Lyrics:
    [chorus] x2
    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
    Somebody told me that this planet was small
    we use 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 and photo flash focus record
    said she workin on a flick and
    could my click do the score
    she said she loved my show in paris
    at Elysee 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 the Thought went home and forgot
    time passed, we back in philly now she up in my spot
    tellin me the things I'm tellin her is makin her hot
    startin buildin with her constantly round the clock
    now she in my world like hip-hop
    and keep tellin me
    [chorus] x2
    Yo, I'm the type that's always catchin a flight
    and sometimes I gotta be out at the height of the night
    and that's when she flip and get on some 'ol
    Another lonely night
    seems like I'm on the side you only loving 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
    sike, I'm playin boo, you know it's just wit 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 leavin you blind
    Yeah, so what you sayin I can trust you?
    Is you crazy, you my king for real
    But sometimes relationships get ill
    No doubt
    [chorus] x2
    That snake could be that chick
    and that rat could be that cool cat
    that's whispering "she tryin 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 with the real so if it's artificial let it be
    I've seen people caught in love like whirlwinds
    listening to they squads and listening to girlfriends
    that's exactly the point where they whole world ends
    lies come in, that's where that drama begins, she like
    [chorus] until fade

    honestly you need erykahs chorus. her voice is the best instrument in this beat when she sings its magic. gives it that extra soul

      they still should have let Jill Scott sing it considering she was the original.

    I'm only trying to speak the word of God but all my spoken words are not truth thru my mental i search for some type of help but helpless again because i don't know whats true and the youth we got to teach that these are all just thoughts of me and not let nothing stray you away from the real message the live life curiously but always remember God got me and for that i feel very thankful for that so i keep going i wanna see where my trials and trubulations take me as my story leads on i can only remember the Lord telling me that matter what i go through in trying to complete his work just always remember that you got me.I know that i am wasting time, buy chasing materialist things and having money or having what i don't need my God gives me what i need so im blessed. Waking up in the light hearing the voice of my lord saying. You got me you got me and i will never leave your side as long as you know that you got me you got me.Now the time is running out we at war with our self's and were so we sit here caught up with how we potray one another but only we should be loving thy brother and caring for our mothers and loving our women why do we hate our women we degrade our women but for what to blinded to see that. Can we all just come together and the time against us and no one to trust but god and i feell like he aint here but then one single tear comes down my face its a race to the finish and im in last place again and again i only WANT TO WIN never loose is that a sin but i feel like i can come up quick with time i lost i felt caught between love and hate damn i feel like all this shit was a mistake still fake friends turn to foes and as my mind slow starts to go younger kids all making mistakes that i

    My spirit is weak, and my flesh will pass like grass... I cant go to heaven with the devil attached... its fact... and I rap like its war... and they laugh... because they don't understand what I do it for... im in it for war and blood... to the death I'm must learn to lead... like there's people I need to feed... and they ride for my shame... ive been on blast... ive been unmasked... like a spirit about to crash... my enemies see me well... plotting me going to hell... and yeah I fell... Lord you know me well... and if I ride... then hold me down... don't forget me now... save me a place... even at the edge of gates... and let me gaze at your face... and praise... please just straighten my crooked ways... and shorten these days... they all laugh at your name... I'm trying to take the pain... but i'm going insane... its like i'm living it realer then ever been felt... i'm doing my best I promise... at times im feeling lawless... who can handle of this... i hate how they diss... tell me what is your purpose... Im no better than my fathers... im feeling worthless... when they fled... they permitted all of this bloodshed... and who can survive... I stay down to ride... if you seek you find... the lost and blind...

    my lord jah you got me and i can't get away// from your rays from the way you raised me/ night to day its crazy/ like the sun and moon/ the son and the soon/ what was done is renewing/ what will crumble will bloom/ some times a man and emce3 need room/ cuz the worlds backwards if you know what i mean/ I dream for a change of heart like dr king/ but I'm marked by the waters of time out of the gutter I climbed leaving a legacy so another will shine up to his prime hopefully better than mine/

    Im like south central and everything on that street
    We used to call my names in that wet concrete
    Used to sell dope and I still smoke weed
    Just got a record deal but I been had cheese
    Looking at these pieces like I been had these
    Im looking at these streets as if there is no peace
    Im faded off that strain of that strongest leaf like
    If only these dead palm trees could speak
    But they cant so they don’t
    I could so I will
    Some people don’t do they just wonder how it feel
