I'd like to dedicate this right here To my favorite girl I know I haven't been the most perfect man But I love you, God knows, I do Why...
(Verse 1) What's wrong with your shady ass Wakin' me up early in the mornin' still yawnin' Don't you know a nigga half sleep So why the hell you keep on pagin' me I told you once before I'm gonna say it once again Don't you call no more My girl is lyin' next to me Do you think this is a game Why you testin' me You keep on stressin' me
(Chorus 1) You keep callin' me All night long Just constantly Interruptin' Can't you see I'm with my favorite girl What's that shit you on Talkin' about by baby's mom She's still layin' in my arms She is my favorite girl
(Verse 2) I saw you around my way Ridin' by my crib Just the other day The order of protection was restranin' me I couldn't take the chance of someone namin' me You tryin' to frame me Leave me alone Callin' me and hangin' up the wife was home How'd you get my number in the first place The shit ain't even listed under my name
You callin' me And you tellin' me That you wantin' me And you needin' me 'Cause you're lonely And you can't see How I could be with another B*I*T*C*H And that she could never be my wifey Why can't you see it wasn't meant for you to be with me
You so damn (crazy girl) Thinkin' I would ever leave my baby My lady The only one Who's there for me Who cares for me My destiny Who knows the things That's best for me And about me (i'm not leavin my home) This ecstasy would always mean the world to me
(Chorus 1)
Huh, leave me alone I wanna be alone Leave me alone, you had to go and stop callin' me Why don't you I told you just leave me alone I can't take no more now Baby I need a little help Stevie J, play for me
Alright, (hmm) It's so funny runnin' into you It has to be three years Since we last seen each other Many flashbacks come to mind Of the wild and crazy times We used to have with one another
We absolutely didn't care We would do it anywhere Eye contact, and it was over, hmm But that's when I was wild, and now I couldn't care less about Someone gettin' hurt I've done my share of dirt But I done wised up
Chorus - Seein' you reminds me of All the nights I used to beat it up I would do it again, but I can't Cuz everything is different now I finally have settled down And became a one woman man
Ooh There were many others after you Quite a few one night stands Some of their names I can't remember Imagine wakin' up with someone who You barely even knew Time and time again
But there's someone for everyone I've been blessed to find that one Who makes me feel like no other You are lookin' good as hell But I can't go home with you Because I'm goin' home to her
Chorus
Long gone, are the days When I ran the streets Tryin' to get laid Ooh, and now (See now that I found the love of my life) (I don't have to trick no more) Girl, it was nice seein' you But I gotta go home to my baby boo
Gotta take of home Know what I'm saying Cause if you don't take care of home Somebody else will, ya feel me? Y'all know what I'm talking 'bout Check it
If she thinks you don't say it enough Tell her you love her Every time that your baby Comes across your mind, heh yeah heh And if you think your girl wants the world Just give it to her Be the sunshine that brightens up her life Don't let her get away, no
1 - Don't let her get away If you really care enough Love her everyday Over and over and over
2 - If you take care of home You don't have to worry your girl Take care of home Take care of home Maybe if you keep her first You don't have to worry your girl Take care of home Take care of home
Hold her hand when you walk through the mall Cause you know she likes it Do all the little things you used to do, hmm mmm Day and night make sure you live to keep her happy Make her realize how beautiful she is She's so beautiful Don't let her, no...
Repeat 1
Repeat 2 (2x)
You got a queen So take care of her in every way (You're so lucky yes you are, hmm) You know that she adores you So worship the ground she walks on
