11
Yo, I had a Queen named Amina, height 5'7"
12
Caramel-complected, body like heaven
13
Met her through the sister of my man Big Vince
14
Like some shit from out the flicks we been in love ever since
15
She called me her chocolate brotha, I call her my sugar sista
16
Knew Shorty could work it since before I ever kissed her
17
I never dissed her, painted my picture to hit
18
But because sex she wasn't with, she started flippin an' shit
19
Like, "Listen man, I'm Queen Amina, Amina's not no freak and
20
That game is weak and keep tryin to hit I could quit speakin'
21
Tariq in fact, you bein BlackThought don't get ya closer
22
I dig ya but won't bone ya because I'm so-called supposed ta
23
Most o' them would, but that couldn't be me, that's not my flava
24
Go home and think about that, maybe later on I'll page ya"
25
I contemplated, and then concluded she was bluffin'
26
Steady pursuin' screwin', gettin' nothin' but the silent treatment
27
Girl you know that you need
28
To stop givin' me the silent, treatment baby
29
Can't you see what you mean to me?

I want to love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
31
And treating me silently

Girl you know that you need
33
To stop givin' me the silent, treatment baby
34
Can't you see what you mean to me?
35
I want to love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
36
And treating me silently
37
Crazy frustration, about my lovin' situation
38
When patience was a virtue, but I wasn't used to waitin'
39
I want some Marvin Gaye healin', feelin' is real inside
40
I slip and slide, my ride'll keep you occupied, I'd
41
Love to get wit it like that, but my baby's kitty cat's capped
42
And locked, Love Boat is docked at the shore
43
And what for? Later for groupies on tour
44
Why won't my sugar call me no more?
45
I mean, my Queen gets upset, rejectin' and sexually neglect
46
Then sayin' I'm more sewer than Das EFX, and closed-minded
47
It's like I'm blinded by the skinnin'
48
I'm into women; because of that, this one's into communication
49
Temptation played the vandal, freakin' my brain, my mind
50
Rippin' the handle on physically scandalous acts
51
Yo! She knew what I wanted, but she fronted
52
Bust it
53
Girl you know that you need
54
To stop givin' me the silent, treatment baby
55
Can't you see what you mean to me?
56
I want to love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
57
And treating me silently
58
Girl you know that you need
59
To stop givin' me the silent, treatment baby
60
Can't you see what you mean to me?
61
I want to love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
62
And treating me silently
63
Well umm
64
Movin' right along with the song, plus the strong
65
Feelings on my mind, desire to intertwine
66
Combine and blend, baby bust a message that I send
67
Ain't no need to pretend, cause shit is real til the end
68
I provide a place to hide from crime, hard times
69
And livin' trife, while I open ya mind, you're in my life
70
Like love, it ain't no way no one can rise above what's real
71
That's why I'm feelin' like you're makin' me bugged
72
I puff an El on fifty deuce while I walk in the rain
73
Heart feelin' killa pain while I hop the train
74
Dial her number to the rest, and ain't no messages left
75
Regardless, my chest thumps from stress, yo it's a mess
76
I don't know what I got to do to make you understand
77
I'm for real and that's no question, no frontin' or no guessin'
78
Undressin', carressin', in the span, that I contain in my hand
79
Could touch and make you say that I'm such a man
80
And call my name, so let me set your body aflame
81
I'll never treat you like a dame or run game
82
Now who's to blame?
83
I know you're not a hoe for niggaz with a lot of dough
84
But I just wanted you to know
85
Girl you know that you need
86
To stop givin' me the silent, treatment baby
87
Can't you see what you mean to me?
88
I want to love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
89
And treating me silently
90
Girl you know that you need
91
To stop givin' me the silent, treatment baby
92
Can't you see what you mean to me?
93
I want to love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
94
And treating me silently
