[00:26.31]Rompers used to try to kick it but never got no play from me
[00:29.34]Cuz I was in it for the money, I remember back in the day
[00:32.34]I used to get down the same damn way, dudes have no time to play
[00:36.24]For those days is over now
[00:38.43]Some sistas in the nineties be treatin their man foul
[00:41.34]He would do just about anything for you
[00:43.68]While he's working his nine to five, you're running through his whole crew
[00:46.68]He used to call you all the time on the rega
[00:48.99]He bought you a beeper, and now you got a cellular
[00:51.84]But know you don't know how to act
[00:53.58]Milking his pockets and hitting off his man Pat
[00:56.40]Now Pat considers him and your man is bull
[00:59.55]But when he turns his back, you're being rude
[01:01.95]Playing with his kids and all of that
[01:04.20]Damn man, that's how brothas get sent back
[01:07.29]They say it only takes two to tango
[01:09.63]A brotha will go as far as his woman takes her

[01:33.09]This situation by a kid named black
[01:35.10]Who used to chill on the Isle, sell a vile of crack
[01:37.98]True it's wrong, but it's hard to make a living
[01:40.53]Trying to make dough just to feed his children
[01:43.14]Black had a girl who was growin up in the mix
[01:45.51]Like hoeing for fast cars and money, but couldn't quit
[01:48.30]Jumping the styles of the rich and famous
[01:50.67]But Black couldn't take that his bitch had game
[01:53.34]Dropped the kids off while shorty got lost
[01:55.83]At the club scene, doin the ???, you know what I mean
[01:58.59]Rubbin on her neck, man loose after this
[02:01.11]She should be home maintaining with the kids
[02:03.75]That's the wrong way to bring up the youth
[02:06.24]Spill the guts, but just tell the truth
[02:08.85]Black was a brotha who liked to be loyal
[02:11.28]The corproal was strong, but the milk was spoiled
[02:13.59][Hook]
[02:13.74][Champ MC]
[02:34.86]Sistas, open up your eyes and relate
[02:37.14]Brithas feel the pain of the love and the hate
[02:39.66]Concentrate and use your brain
[02:41.64]You said you changed but still remain the same
[02:44.91]You got a good man, you better hold on tight to it
[02:47.70]Before your eyes knew it, you cold blew it
[02:50.13]Cheating and backstabbing that man
[02:52.38]You tried to escape because you couldn't understand
[02:55.02]But I'm real, I know the deal, this is how I feel
[02:57.48]Broathas that are even locked down in the jail cell
[03:00.30]Or even on drugs, living the life of a thug
[03:02.82]They all live the same, no sense and all ???
[03:05.55]But you can take your time to choose
[03:08.07]And if you got a good man, better hold on to him
[03:10.89]You're on his nuts and dealin with those herbs
[03:12.99]You'll be singin that sad song and kicked to the curb, word
[03:39.21][Hook]
