ayo C.I., we a tough act to follow
tough act to swallow
every time we link i look like Young Black Sopranos
but we bound to get in accidents
riding with your heart on your sleeve,
that's one hell of a fashion sense
and we don't read relationship columns
instead, we mixing D'usse with relationship problems
i'm always gone when things go wrong
then we fuck til things get right
and things go left
then i move like young Hugh Hef
slave to your ways
when i wake up, it's chain on chain
cop the Cuban link - finally got that thing on swing
so don't hesitate to tell em that i made you levitate
made your mind and money elevate
cuz you told me
you can't wait no more
you told me dont move too slow
but baby don't move too fast
with all of this, we might crash like waves
but you told me it's mine
told me a million times
said i had you feeling so high
i hope you don't crash like waves
i hope you don't crash like waves
[Celia]
why it always gotta be win or lose?
you act as if we in a battle
and i never wanted to cut you lose, yeah
but you made it so that i had to
cuz the game won't lie; we all one in the same
unless you giving them a reason to remember your name
so if i made mistakes, then you made mistakes too
it was a different time / a very different place
you were so convinced our love could never be replaced
you are killing me now like you were killing me then
sometimes i wish we could go back to you & me as just friends, oh
cuz we were happy once upon a time
it felt so beautiful to call you mine
now the vibe is gone and no, we can't carry on like this
i really never meant for shit to get so complicated
but damn i couldn't help really feeling our conversations
before the pressure, 'fore the feeling like we had to move
see i was really feeling you and maybe that was all i wanted
but maybe i never should've looked at you in your eyes
and i wasn't lying when i said for you, i would ride
it's just the wrong time, wrong place, wrong face for the moment
still looking forward to see you again
but you told me
you ain't worried about the past
you just wanted something that would last, yeah
you told me
you ain't bout that life
i wasn't tryna be your wife, now
you told me
'bout a million times
looked at you right in your eyes, yeah
you told me
now are we still good, are we still good, babe?
if you really want me, let me know
cuz i can't be your girl just on the low and
when you're feeling lonely
cuz you know i'll be good out on my own
but are we really better off alone?
maybe i never should've looked at you in your eyes
if you didn't want it that way, then you should've just told me
we could talk it out like some grown-ups / phone me

it's really crazy / you was my baby
but now we're fading on this darkness path
...the hourglass
your sour past had me losing; i couldn't win with you
my heart ain't bulletproof but it seems you were meant to shoot
i wouldn't call it love; love is such a mystery
love is such a memory -- something that's not a friend to me
i take this Hennessy / mix the misery, then i drown
told me you would hold me down, now fuck it,
don't come around
i blame myself for even taking you back
what was i thinking? wasn't thinking on that one night i snapped
started sinking, wasn't dreaming when i woke up like that
that's how i knew it - yeah
this ain't something that's worth pursuing
know i'm better without you
all these --- saying that i need to get out soon
but i don't listen to em cuz i know who you are
and now you're so far
about to shoot a rocket full of memories into the stars
you need no evidence / it's evident
my presence is irrelevant?
shoot up your residence for 'saulting my intelligence
hangin with that Mary, not the virgin
she ain't celibate
rappers want some fame that they can relish in,
no better shit
well equipped my etiquette
so legit; i murder it
been a dick, not innocent
got a pocket full of presidents
estimate my (???)
got a bad bish look like Marilyn
know i look so elegant
still stomp you like an elephant, uh
[Celia]
the quiet has a way of getting to you after spending too much time in it
senses on overdrive til you feeling blind in it
so i put this rhyme in it - like a wishing well
throw in all my pennies and my energy to wish you well
sometimes i wish you fell
for that other girl,
the one that you were talking to when we were going through our hell
i guess in ever thought it through
i never thought of you as someone or something that i would wanna follow through with
how'd you do it?, you ask me
i had you so cool-whipped
don't look at me in that way cuz i let you say
what you need to say
couldn't let it lay
now you wanna stay
or you really wanna go?
it's your call, it's your move
blocked your call and they're soon to ticket
so move your car if you're gonna stay
stick around for a little bit and i know you will unless you really meant
every single word you had the nerve to say the other night
kick me to the curb and now you swerving looking for a fight
chillin with that Mary, always there for you or so you say
she gon be the one to hold you down but in a different way
same shit, different day
we see shit differently
missing me - i bet you do but tripping when you picturing
us - and how it was, how we were when we together
hate to be the one to say it but we better off apart
yeah
cuz when i say on to the left,
i see you looking right back
so gone and i want you bad
[Trey B.]
and babe i'm wishing you the best
i know that you don't like that
i tried to send you on the right back
cuz when i go on to the next,
i see you looking right back
so gone and i want you bad
[Trey B.]
and babe i'm wishing you the best
i know that you don't like that
i tried to send you on the right back
uh - thinking back on it, i
looking deeper, looking inward
kick it a minute where you never go
i never hold you up to standard i'm supposed to
fuck it; hold up a toast to those dudes i go through
keep going down that old way
you don't have shit on me
i'll never be that old Jane stuck in them old ways
stuck in that always; i don't know how yall do that shit
i wrote it down and brewed that shit...
and grew from shit, see
i've been working on these equations since '89
i've been waiting patient like baking a fucking pie
i've been main tings! even been a fuckin side
even played the fuckin fool
but i never let my aura die
put that on my artistry and put that on my heart
put that one everything we've been through from the start
put that on a pillow so you feel it when you lie
and put that on the day i met you til the day i die

get up, get up, get up...
it's what you hearing, listen
you gon' have to do more
you gon' have to make damn sure
you gon' have to make it all worth more
you gon' have to be my one & only love
you gon' have to give everythinh up
you gon' have to be there all the time
you gon' have to lay it all down on the lie
you gon' have to be the one i need & more
you gon' have to be the one to make it all
break your fall
pull me up
pocket that
run it back & you can't go back
hold me down & out
you gon' have to be the one you thought you wasn't
when the well runs dry, yeah
(why's it always gotta be so hard for you?)
when you're in need
why can't you sleep?
so i'm gon' vibe out on my own
(why's it always gotta be so hard for you?)
but know that when you call, i will pick up
always, always
ooh, oh - contact
hit the floor and i don't know where i bounce back
fall back / in your arms, i think i did
but i know that that ain't the place for me
that ain't the place for me, i know
oh, again again i fall into some weary place
some weary spaces / oh my god
i don't even know if i can make it out this time
i don't know if i can put my life in you
'fore i'm all putting my trust in you / who are you?
wish that i could turn it back
throw this weight up off my back
but i guess it's better late than never
better find a love that's real for me, for you
(why's it always gotta be so hard for you?)
when it's all in me
why can't you sleep?
so i'm gon' vibe out on my own
(why's it always gotta be so hard for you?)
but know that when you call, i will pick up
always, always
why can't you sleep?
why can't you get yourself some rest?
why can't you just do what everybody else has did?
why can't you just do the things that everybody do?
i confide in you cuz i find in you the vibe in you
it's three and four and five and six; i see the sun again
they was never on my level; motherfxck a friend
fxck a friend, yeah
cuz i don't need that anyway
(i don't need your love)
that shit slow me down like in a different way
(i don't need that shit to slow me down)
already got me seeing things in twos
a different vision that you thought you knew of,
knew of me now
why so afraid, why so afraid?
better find a love that's real for me, for you
(why's it always gotta be so hard for you?)
when it's all in me
why can't you sleep?
so i'm gon' vibe out on my own
(why's it always gotta be so hard for you?)
but know that when you call, i will pick up
always, always
