B-Time...Guess Who's Back Esko, Esko, Barje Baby... Ugh Check it, Yo When I view situations around me all I can do Is shake my head Don't wanna feel this way, I'd rather Be laughing Instead How can one smile when mad things are going wrong My brothers and sisters, they always singing sad songs The part that bugs me out, is y'all can't even fathom why But I guess I wouldn't either if it wasn't for my third eye I'd be like old girl, Sharice around my way She lugging five kids and got another one on the way The sad part is Sharice is barely twenty five Steadily falling for them ballers who be faking to ride high Peepin' em out, trynna see if they half real Using sex for her gimmick, popping babies like pills I was sympathetic cause I thought they was dissing her Just popping that yang until the middle was missing but That was just a bit before I peeped her game y'all Sharice was kinda ill and she was part to blame Jocking for doe to increase her cash flow And getting pissed of if a nigga say hoe She wanted respect like any mother with Kids But she will never fess up to the life she lives Ugh, Yo Take a look in the mirror (Take a look, take a look) Tell me who do you see (Ugh, Yeah) You be honest with yourself Is that you Check it, Now Brothers be slipping too With all this hypocrisy, We be tearing these sisters down with mindless democracy So when Faced with Paternity, We run from eternity Leaving Maternity she must face alone And we be sending mixed messages through our fortune and fame And got these video queens, They flashing skin to be seen And their ain't no doubt about it yo It's every girl's dream To be deemed esteemed as your Nubian Queen But they way they go about it can't deny it's all wrong But do we brothers give them choices, Do y'all make 'em feel strong The next time you get the chance to make a video Show a sister with some class, Not the image of a hoe Come on man Take a look in the mirror (Take a look, take a look) Tell me who do you see (who do ya see, Ugh) You be honest with yourself Is it you or is it me yeah (Gotta be real about it, ya know what I'm saying) Take a look in the mirror (Take a look, take a look) Tell me who do you see You be honest with yourself Is that you Check it, This bar is dedicated to my Ebony Queens And to Ms. Ivory the same applies to you and your King The biggest problem men are having with y'all ladies today Is y'all's superficial lust and your reluctance to pay (Now if you don't fit this here criterion ) Don't pitch a fit and get all furious But if you think I'm talking 'bout them shoes you in (Take your pride, suck it in, and let this knowledge begin) You see cause all I wanna do is help you persevere Help you understand why men don't adhere Like why you getting plaid and your relationships fail Why you don't have his ring, but he got your tail You ain't even gone believe what I heard this broad say She bragging to her friends how she made this dude pay Gave her cash, some clothes, paid a few of her bills She said, all I had to give him was a few cheap thrills But girl it was worth it, she said I got my bills paid Yo bills gone resurface, Yo virginity ain't In just a matter of years, you might be ready to wed But if you flip it like that, you could be dead instead (Ugh What) Take a look in the mirror (Take a look, take a look) Tell me who do you see (who do ya see) You be honest with yourself (keep it real with yourself) Is it you or is it me yeah Take a look in the mirror (Just Take a look, take a look) Tell me who do you see You be honest with yourself Is that you Mirror , mirror on my wall Is it really me that's about to fall I don't wanna be the reason for Bad influence growing within my community not me, no..., oh, oh, oh, naw, no, yeah Take a look in the mirror, tell me who do you see You be honest with yourself Is that You
