We used to live in the same building
And never met before un til
And peep this Ethiopian queen from
Philly takin' classes abroad
She's studyin film and photo,
Says she's workin' on a flick an
d could my click do the score
She says she loved my show
at Paris at Elys'e Montmartre
That I stepped off the stage
and took a piece of her heart
We knew from the start that things
fall apart and tend to 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? You think that
thought went home and forgot?
Time passed, now we're back in
Philly and she up in my spot
Tellin' me the things I'm tellin'
Started buildin' with her constantly,
Now she in my world like hip- hop
Seems like I'm on the side,
I know you gotta get that paper daddy
But I need some sort of love in my life
sister from New York City
She say she know this ball player
You know its just with you
When cats be poppin' game I don't
hear what they sayin' boo
While you're out there in the world,
With all my classes I don't have
the time for life's thrills
So when you're sweatin' on the stage,
think of me when you rhyme
And don't be listenin to your homies,
The snake could be that chick
And that rat could be that cool cat
That's whisperin' she tryin' to play you for the fool,
If something's on your chest
See I'm not your every five
And on the topic of trust
it's just a matter of fact
That people bite back and
I deal with the real so if
it's artificial let it be
Listenin to their squaws and listenin
That's exactly the point where
Lies come in and that's where the
