1 - 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 |

If you were worried 'bout where |

(Roots) |
|
Somebody told me that this planet was small |
|
We used 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 in photo flash focus record |
|
Said she working on a flick and could my clique do the score |
|
She said she love my show in Paris at Elys'e 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 that Thought went home and forgot? |
|
Time passed, we back in Philly, she up in my spot |
|
Telling me the things I'm telling her is makin' her hot |
|
Started building with her constantly 'round the clock |
|
Now she in my world like hip-hop, and keep telling me... |
|
Repeat 1 |
|
(Roots) |
|
Yo, I'm the type that's always catchin' a flight |
|
And sometimes I got to be out at the height of the night |
|
And that's when she flip and get on some ol'... |
|
(Eryka) |
|
Another loney night? |
|
Seems like I'm on the side, you only lovin' 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 |
|
Psych, I'm playin' boo, you know it's just with 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 leadin' you blind |
|
(Roots) |
|
Yeah, so what you sayin', I can trust you? |
|
(Eryka) |
|
Is you crazy? You my king, for real |
|
(Both) |
|
But sometimes, relationships get ill |
|
(Eryka) |
|
No doubt |
|
Repeat 1 |
|
(Roots) |
|
That snake could be that chick and that rat |
|
Could be that cool cat that's whisperin' |
|
She's trying 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 wit the real, so if it's artificial, let it be |
|
I seen people caught in love like whirlwinds |
|
Listening to they squaws and listenin' to they girlfriends |
|
That's exactly the point where they whole world ends |
|
Lies come in, that's where the drama begins |
|
And she like... yo |
|
Repeat 1 |
