Made him stand behind my door and watch me uh uh uh
And I couldn't believe the type
He was saying all the right

Whispers gettin' mami right, I was uh uh uh
So I had to get the ice
Homie wanna fly the kite
Had to show him what a pro I was uh uh uh
I was headed for the light
He refused to take a bite
Till I put my blindfolders on

Let me take this off
Just to see where I can catch my breath at all

Hold up
You got a pretty strong team
Got somethin' on the bench that Kelis ain't seen

Hold up
Why you treat me like that?
'Bout the 3rd or 4th time you ain't had to do that

Hold up
Won't you let me cheat once?
And I promise you won't never make me keep this on

You're just taking it all, what's gon' be left for me?
I told you get it, but you're taking it all from me
