'Cause he don't love your eyes
(No)
And he don't love your smile
(No)
Girl you know that ain't fair
(C'mon)
In the middle of the night
Is he gonna be by your side?
Or will he run and hide?
You don't know 'cause things ain't clear
And baby when you cry
Is he gonna stand by your side?
Does the man even know you're alive?
I got an idea

(He know what you feel?)
Are you sure that it's real, yeah

Or does he break your stride?
Did you know that love could be a shield, yeah
In the middle of the night
(Ohh)

(No, no, no)
Or will he run and hide?
You don't know 'cause things ain't clear

Ghetto like Da Brat, ready to scrap when I say
The talents of Alicia, fall Ms. Keys
I take the hips off Trina, the lips off Eve
I put ya so high on a pedestal, it might make ya nose bleed
So much ice around ya ankles, and watch ya toes freeze
What's wrong, ma? Ya man ain't brining ya joy?
Don't trip flip ya scrip to a country boy, now c'mon
Ever since I saw your face
Nothing in my life has been the same
I walk around just saying your name
Without you, my world would end, yeah
