Ever since he met you had that good Oochie Wally

Curves so killer, you put insurance on your body

Remember that jude joints? your hair all knotty

And I was coming through in that blue Maserati go

See this honey was potent like cook blow

Crack! I mixed the Black with Phillipino

Used to live in Reno but we met on the beach

Sang bars from the star, everythang was peace

Then we got our shit together, you moved in the castle

Let you shop wit the Capital One, no hassles

One minute you're cool, next minute you're amped

Talking loud trying to play me like a wet food stamp

Ho!! Think of me in your life with the next dude

I'm like Chef, I'm contemplating my next move

Then think of all the wankstas I hit

Ain't this a bitch? shit this is all the thanks I get?

I'm gone

How could you do it to a nigga like this?

Tell me, tell me

And why would you give another nigga my kiss?

You hurt me, hurt me babe

I gave my love, my time, my life

In return you give me pain

What a shame, and this is the thanks I get baby!
