(Mic check, mic check
One-two, one-two
No Joe Budden!)
Uh
Yeah
Ordinary Love Shit Part One
Mic check
Luh, luh, luh, yo!
My path for tomorrow is relaxing at full throttle
Born to be a leader but a tough act to follow
Bet on me at all costs in spite of my cash
So if I can't afford the Waldorf, I can afford to fall off (I came on)
Stories over greatness, no stopping my zone
I'm bumping "Roman's Revenge," but I'm plotting my own
Like a prophecy in case niggas haven't learned not to bother me
'Fore you send your shots, just check my return policy (eh, eh, eh)
Could do without the leeches, shoes without the creases
Miami Heat hater but I do the South Beaches (South Beaches)
For any drama I be calling up monsters
I ain't Gilbert I never met a Wall I can't conquer (you got it)
Ruger aimed if I'm who you try and belittle
I learned it's hard to get justice when you try and be civil
Whatever the future holds I can live with the day
Some niggas will sell their soul but some will give it away (oh)
And that's the devil in disguise they window of opportunity is minimized
Simplified, check what I exemplify (uh, uh, uh, uh)
Bitch nigga, here's something for you to generalize
Estate out by Tenafly, pool houses, winterized (you got it)
Play in that water, you bound to get your feet wet
Only rapper with nothin' to hide, me and G-Dep
My shorty might disagree with that sentiment
If I keep something from you, I promise it's all innocent (it's all innocent)
Bitches gon get you with that fake out beat
I won't let them Media Takeout me, a made nigga
Gotta know when dealing with me you gon' put up with a lot of hate
Before you say you love me, how much of it can you tolerate? (Tolerate)
You can't talk about marriage and giving birth
If you hit the dirt anytime you think I lift a skirt
It grows tiresome every time you get berserk
Plus, if you abandon home over what was just a flirt (what?)
Without a care, I just chuck deuces
My skin'll turn numb and you'll be stuck with what your truth is
Then you'll feel a way, thinking I should have resisted
Then you'll start to see a side of me you never knew existed (never knew existed)
'Cause you never seen me act like a jerk
I know women will provoke you and get mad when it works
Rather reserved, and that always makes matters the worst
'Cause I go on about my business and not act like it hurts (I came on)
But wait, it's to the point I gotta ask myself
Why the fuck is it so easy to detach myself
Maybe it ain't you, just something I lack myself
But if these wounds are self-inflicted, I can patch myself (patch myself)
Now listen, I could give a fuck 'bout how them other niggas treated you (so true)
If your ass was that perfect, they would be with you (fuck you)
I don't care if you dime'd out
You'll say you're the best I'll ever have and I'll say I'm willing to find out (you got it)
Wait, I'm thinking 'bout our bond and what happened to it
If you ain't lifting the burden, you probably adding to it
She say my logic's wild and it's sick to her
She say I'm all for self and don't consider her (you got it)
She feel like she don't have a voice in this relationship
I'm thinking boo you got a choice so why you taking it
Certain shit I wouldn't stand for
I'm giving her my all but she demands more (you got it)
I wish she would understand more
Certain shit you couldn't plan for
I'm guessing if I love you and you're worth it
I should take some time out and figure if you deserve this
But you just think that I'm full of it
We both come from backgrounds of bullshit (you got it)
I'm fortunate that ain't what you see in me
I'll stop lying...
