Story Behind The Song

It's probably easy to tell that this is a very personal song for me. It describes in pretty clear and very accurate detail my own experience in a relationship. Like many of these types of songs, it has to be taken in context of a man who is completely f

Song Description

This man is trying to make a point that often gets lost in relationships between men and women. While he is constantly accused of infidelity and neglect, it is actually his woman who seems to have forgotten the many postive things he brings to their rela

Lyrics

Rap 1 (16 bars)
Look here shorty, I think it's time to set this straight
And this'll be the last time I hope you get this straight
Cuz I ain't got a lotta time I'm tryin' to get this cake
And you been kinda with the drama as of late
Look man, I'm a player in this industry
Now do that mean I be a playa with these women be runnin' in 'em continuously?
I know that's what you thinkin' of me
I know your girls hate whenever they be speakin' of me
Oh yeah he always in the club with the rowdiest click
Choppin' at the chicks in the ass outest fit
Yeah I flirt a little bit I stay surrounded with chicks
And when I come home you wanna get wild and shit
But think about this, who you wanna believe?
Some chick with no man, misery love company
Before you end up just like that
Think about the kind of man you got

Chorus 1 (8 bars)
I Never talk big just to make you feel small
Made you break bread just so I could take it all
I Never stayed out all night and didn't call
Left you all alone with the kids so I could ball
I Never kept chicks in the house when you was gone
Kept you locked down and controlled your life strong
I Never talk down on your fam or your moms
Or raised my hand to you when you knew that you was wrong

Rap 2 (16 bars)
Still you wanna conversate
Why the cell stay ringin' why I'm home so late
Bout to have me quotin' B.I.G. like Jay used to do
God Damn I made you, why would I play you dude?
Swear to God you the finest and that's a promise
But come on now keep it real let's be honest
When we met you was a 9.9
Who gave you that confidence, who brung you up to a dime?
Huh, look at you now shinin' out from the crowd
You's a dime plus a nickel make a nigga so proud
When I think of what I seen you through
Man, I believed in you when even YOU didn't believe in you
You was steady fuckin' with them weak cats
Them bag it and tag it, freak that and then sneak cats
But who was there to dry your tears whenever
Whether rain or shine you know I ain't lyin'

Chorus 2 (8 bars)
I Never talk big just to make you feel small
Made you break bread just so I could take it all
I Never stayed out all night and didn't call
Left you all alone with the kids so I could ball
I Never kept chicks in the house when you was gone
Kept you locked down and controlled your life strong
I Never talk down on your fam or your moms
Or raised my hand to you when you knew that you was wrong

Bridge (8 bars)
Now How You Gon'
Let them other chicks make you doubt me?
How You Gon'
Front like you could ever live with out me?
How You Gon'
Treat me like them cats that never cared for you?
How You Gon'
Scream on a nigga, as if he wasn't there for you?

Rap 3 (16 bars)
I never knew you had it so bad, you wasn't mad
When we flipped that brand new pad
Copped the drop top so you could ride in the Summer
New SUVs when the kids started comin'
And when you wanted to be closer to your mom
Got another brand new spot, man come on
I'm always about you, how could you not know?
Think of them vacays in the snow, Oh!
When we wiled out in Vegas, Walked the sandy beaches in Jamaica
And Cabo, mojitos at Mangos
West Palm to Miami and back, Oh!
But now you ain't feelin' that? Damn!
I guess the only thing you feel is beef
And you convinced it's a lotta niggas real as me
Hmmph, maybe they can bring you happiness
But if not then just remember this

Chorus 3 (8 bars)
I Never talk big just to make you feel small
Made you break bread just so I could take it all
I Never stayed out all night and didn't call
Left you all alone with the kids so I could ball
I Never kept chicks in the house when you was gone
Kept you locked down and controlled your life strong
I Never talk down on your fam or your moms
Or raised my hand to you when you knew that you was wrong
