What we gon’ do? Let’s lead the way
Oh baby I want the days when you were my girl
Got the same outcome as Gillette
But for once here goes the truth
The grass is always greener on the other side
Now it’s so plain to see to me, I got the one
I can't be fake, I can't be phony
You took the very best thing
Girl, I'm sorry that I ran the streets acting like a damn fool
Like partner need a partner, when you’re old I’ll hold you down
Acting all hard, that's for homies, that's lonely
Being any more than just a horrible man?
I tried to flex but I confess that when you left
The best thing that ever happened to me
What’s my demeanor?
You took my best thing, the best thing that I ever seen
Acting all hard, that's for homies, that's lonely
You know seeds become plants, boys become men
And taking a second shot at romance?
Know I took you for granted but it wasn't 'til now
You took the very best thing
And now all I feel is stress
You're the best mama
Now it’s sort of like two car garages
Mama tried to tell me Hobie Hob just slow it down
You took the best thing, the best thing that I ever had
I can't be fake, I can't be phony
I tried to flex but I confess that when you left
Let alone half bath and closets
You took the best thing, the best thing that I ever had
You took the best thing, the best thing that I ever had
I couldn’t give a ***, how could I give a finger
So claustrophobic, in fear of close objects
I ain't got ‘em no more, hey, as for Naomi or Jenny
Is there any chance that you remember me
And I was your man
You gon’ lose your best thing if you keep gettin’ ‘round
To share this with ya, how much I miss you
But for once here goes the truth
Then think about, can’t give a ring up
Remember Mimi or Vita, remember Isha or Eva
I can't be fake, I can't be phony
'Cause when you left you took the very best
And now all I feel is stress
All of them was flirting time, it wasn’t you, it was him
And now all I feel is stress
I'm so sorry that I ran the streets acting like a damn fool
The best thing that ever happened to me
And I’ve talked to the bishop and he wanted me
The best thing that ever happened to me
‘Cause baby when you left you took the very best
I see how much I miss you
School me once, school me twice, three times, I was dumb
It’s like two broads menagin’
Sorry Stacy, sorry Tanya, Millie-Ann and all of them
Ooh, no more trickin’ and kissin’ miscellaneous chicks
You took the very best thing
I tried to flex but I confess that when you left
You took my best thing, the best thing that I ever seen
Acting all hard that's for homies that's lonely
Wrapped around all girls like Pashminas
You took my best thing, the best thing that I ever seen
Girl, I let ‘em all go
Acting like a jerk, woman I been to church
And would you consider pullin’ this trigger
You’re the best mama
Ma, forever young, was forever none
