lyrics

(Esquire)
Girl u gotta get your mind right, whatchu causing trouble for
Half the time this shit is a tug of war
We have a fight then we have a couple more
You know my hindsight is a double score
And I’m seeing you for whatchu really are
you used to leave me awed now u unfamiliar
And this really odd,
cause last night I had you bent right over on the table like we was playing billiards
But your shit is over the top
You blowing up my spot and u never know when to stop
Even when I’m clear as ciroc
You never play your part, stick to the script, stop fucking up the plot
Cause u fucking up a lot, so I’m getting on my Casper
This the last time I fuck around with a Cancer
Or a pretty dancer
She asked me if I loved her and I had a shitty answer

***
People say that those who matter don’t mind
and those who mind don’t matter at all
(matter at all)

Hate to leave your tears splattered,
but to me it doesn’t matter cause it mattered before
(mattered before)

And I feel for u,
I know what’s its like to fall
Said I would kill for you
For someone who isn’t there to catch u at all
But ima keep it real for u
That’s why I’m telling u how it is, without the cowardice,
don’t wanna leave u powerless but I ain’t down for this.

Say lady, you say I’m acting shady
not knowing that you’re pretentious, comes from your actions daily
addicted to that imbalance, hating then having spasms
of cussing, loving and fucking does that last one even matter
send me, a ladder, let me climb to you baby
let me reach for the stars, spend some time with you baby
on that, wavy matter, that daisy platter
trying to remind you that I’m hopeless without you
mad at my focus, begin to tatter
my eyelids keep getting fatter
told you to gather your senses,
when you would go travel to see somebody else
cause to me you been somebody
to him, you just some body
which aims to please his motifs as you sip that Bacardi
I’m telling you shawty you gonna miss me when I’m through
you don’t persist that it’s a new you
cause I knew you since the blue moon
just admit that’s it’s what you do, ah shit
and who knew, you’d be manipulating me like voodoo

**

(outrolude)
who are you huh? You some kind of fucking policeman
what’s th- what is the big deal?

Nothing, I did nothing I promise
please don’t leave me…
..
You don’t believe me because you don’t wanna believe me
because you don’t care!
Because you just wanted to say “I’m fucking a model!”
Huh?! “I’m fucking a model!”
You don’t care about me at all do you?, Do you?!
Tell me you don’t care!
….

Please..
I’m sorry…
I need you so much don’t make me do this..
