Chorus: Erykah Badu (repeat 2X)
2
If you were worried 'bout where
3
I been or who I saw or
4
What club I went to with my homies
5
Baby don't worry you know that you got me
6
(Black Thought)
7
Somebody told me that this planet was small
8
We use to live in the same building on the same floor
9
And never met before
10
Until I'm overseas on tour
11
And peep this ethiopian queen from philly
12
Taking classes abroad
13
She studying film and photo flash focus record
14
Said she workin on a flick and
15
Could my click do the score
16
She said she loved my show in paris
17
At Elysee Montmartre
18
And that I stepped off the stage
19
And took a piece of her heart
20
We knew from the start that
21
Things fall apart, intentions shatter
22
She like that shit don't matter
23
When I get home get at her
24
Through letter, phone, whatever
25
Let's link, let's get together
26
Shit you think not, think the Thought went home and forgot
27
Time passed, we back in philly now she up in my spa
28
Tellin me the things I'm tellin her is makin her hot
29
Startin buildin with her constantly round the clock
30
Now she in my world like hip-hop
31
And keep tellin me
32
Chorus
33
[Black Thought]
34
Yo, I'm the type that's always catchin a flight
35
And sometimes I gotta be out at the height of the night
36
And that's when she flip and get on some 'ol
37
[Eve]
38
Another lonely night
39
Seems like I'm on the side you only loving your mic
40
I know you gotta get that paper daddy keep that shit tight
41
But yo I need some sort of love in my life, you dig me
42
While politicin with my sister from new york city
43
She said she know this ball player and he think I'm pretty
44
Psych, I'm playin boo, you know it's just wit you I'm stayin boo
45
And when cats be poppin game I don't hear what they sayin boo
46
When you out there in the world, I'm still your girl
47
With all my classes I don't have the time for life's thrills
48
So when you sweatin on stage think of me when you rhyme
49
And don't be listenin to your homies they be leavin you blind
50
[Black] Yeah, so what you sayin I can trust you?
51
[Eve]Is you crazy, you my king for real
52
[Both]But sometimes relationships get ill
53
[Eve]No doubt
54
Chorus
55
[Black Thought]
56
Thet snake could be that chick
57
And that rat could be that cool cat
58
That's whispering "she tryin to play you for the fool Black"
59
If something's on your chest then let it be known
60
See I'm not your every five minutes all on the phone
61
And on the topic of trust, it's just a matter of fact
62
That people bite back and fracture what's intact
63
And they'll forever be I ain't on some "oh I'm a celebrity"
64
I deal with the real so if it's artificial let it be
65
I've seen people caught in love like whirlwinds
66
Listening to they squads and listening to girlfriends
67
That's exactly the point where they whole world ends
68
Lies come in, that's where that drama begins, she like
69
Chorus: repeat until fade
