If the shoe fits, I want you to wear it, and wear it good
(And you can New Jack swing on my nuts)
Talking 'bout them times when I was by myself
I would always be looking for somebody else
But as time went on, I had a talk with my mind
Friends like you and you I gotta leave behind
And I'm sayin'
You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I'll never see you if I had no loot
(I'll never see them again)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm paying my own bills
And I'll never ever depend on you
(And you can New Jack swing on my nuts)
Friends and enemies around me every day
I can't believe half the things they say
Taking me for granted, giving no credit at all
I'll just keep bouncing like a bouncing ball
Everybody seems to disappear on me
Can't trust no one as far as I can see
If I could be that fly that's on the wall
Listening to my friends talk about it all
You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I'll never see you if I had no loot
(I'll never see them again)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm paying my own bills
And I'll never ever depend on you
(Sons of Soul, y'all)
I don't mean to step on nobody's foot, but ah
When I need somebody, there's nobody to call
When they need me, my phone rings off the wall
But these are my friends and that's what they say
Constantly taking from me every day
You say
You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I'll never see you if I had no loot
(I'll never see them again)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm paying my own bills
And I'll never ever depend on you
(Sons of Soul, y'all)
I don't mean to step on nobody's foot, but ah
You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I'll never see you if I had no loot
(I'll never see them again)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm paying my own bills
And I'll never ever depend on you
You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I'll never see you if I had no loot
(And you can New Jack swing on my nuts)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm paying my own bills
And I'll never ever depend on you
(Starting to believe what it feels like)
You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I'll never see you if I had no loot
(And you can New Jack swing on my nuts)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm paying my own bills
And I'll never ever depend on you
