Written by:Mike Lowe/Ahmir Thompson/Tariq Trotter/Jacqueline Wright/Scott Storch[00:00:01]
What what[00:00:09]
Here's what you want right here's what you need right[00:00:11]
We got to give you more of what you're lookin' for[00:00:16]
So it's a secret that's been pent up inside for years[00:00:20]
Exclusive type only for your eyes and ears[00:00:23]
You held it in for so long you bursted into tears[00:00:26]
The letters spilled slowly across the page like a world premiere[00:00:28]
Well I ain't the bullsh*t begins here[00:00:32]
The obvious 'cause the effects is unclear[00:00:34]
The punishment for crimes of the heart could be severe[00:00:37]
Though to keep it on the low[00:00:39]
Is a heavy 'cross to bear[00:00:40]
You deep now submerged with no signs of air[00:00:42]
Still your sunken heart thumpin'[00:00:44]
Like the kick in a snare[00:00:46]
While on the surface it's all turnin' to a circus[00:00:47]
That's why you're nervous and you got a right to be[00:00:50]
'Cause if somebody woulda done that sh*t to me[00:00:52]
I mean my best man hittin' my wife to be[00:00:55]
My sentiments exactly would be history ya know what I'm sayin'[00:00:57]
My peoples in the place let's hit it off one two[00:01:01]
Here's what you want right here's what you need right[00:01:04]
We got to give you more of what you're lookin' for[00:01:09]
You stil got it got don't know you[00:01:14]
Felling nice ah yeah yeah[00:01:20]
Yo it's like nothin' changed it's all the same thang[00:01:24]
The same characters in a book with different names[00:01:27]
It's a lot more to lose than you got to gain[00:01:29]
You a lot more confused than hip to the game[00:01:32]
The peep the script of the game the price is pain[00:01:35]
Men and women get into things now who's to blame[00:01:37]
When everybody whisperin' 'bout whatever took place[00:01:40]
And how the fact twist a knot with a straight face[00:01:42]
And lies hard to swallow from the bitter taste[00:01:45]
Well that's a point in the past that can't be erased[00:01:47]
So motivate though it's hard to let it ride[00:01:50]
Or set aside true feelings underhand dealings[00:01:53]
Our lost trust I wonder if we lost us[00:01:56]
It's bigger than me and you it's monstrous[00:01:58]
So I'ma just calm down and try to relax[00:02:01]
Of you are crap that what you are doin'[00:02:03]
Here's what you want right here's what you need right[00:02:07]
We got to give you more of what you're lookin' for[00:02:12]
You stil got it got don't know you[00:02:17]
Felling nice ah yeah yeah[00:02:23]
If you could only flash back and undo our actions[00:02:27]
Change what happens dissect the fractions[00:02:30]
A time to rewind and be recorded absenta[00:02:33]
For real 'cause these memories is photographic[00:02:35]
Pornographic pushing me close to madness[00:02:38]
Head heavy like I'm trippin' on acid tablets[00:02:40]
Yesterday as I recall was all fabulous I thought so[00:02:43]
But now it feel like shots hittin' my torso[00:02:46]
Spent a lotta time and trust in the wrong place[00:02:49]
Fought a lotta fights rollin' with the wrong ace[00:02:51]
Love stronger than pride we could end disgrace[00:02:54]
I need room the think and space to ventilate[00:02:56]
Was solid as a rock shall not disintegrate[00:02:59]
Thoughts racing like the lunatics on the interstate[00:03:01]
For real ya ya it's ill ya my peoples in the place[00:03:04]
What we goota be do let's hit it off one two[00:03:07]
Here's what you want right here's what you need right[00:03:10]
We got to give you more of what you're lookin' for[00:03:15]
You stil got it got don't know you[00:03:21]
Felling nice ah yeah yeah[00:03:26]
Here's what you want right here's what you need right[00:03:31]
We got to give you more of what you're lookin' for[00:03:36]
