It ain't all good, and that's the truth Thangs ain't goin
like you think they should - it's all on you
[Chaka Khan] I don't care
about what you think you see the thangs you want to know when you look at
me God knows I done been through and paid my dues Can't change how you
feel, cause it's - all on you-whoahhha-ohhh-yeah
I wish that, you could
be a little bit more upfront Weigh the situation how you want (right) The
lovin that you claim is just a four letter word The third letter's invitin so
visualize the verb You curve thoughtways when you're handlin the
candleabra so you sittin on the baby grand Transmittin like you're made
of man but you paint a funny face like a chick When I see you I'ma tell
you quick that uhh..
Chorus 1/2
I can't believe we built this
large pizza pie together No pepperoni Yeah you wanted extra cheese,
sometimes I gave you extras How we divided slices like the Red Sea
theory I was Moses hopelessly scorned by your thorn zapora Tried to bring
that fairy-tale life, you wanted horror but my microscope couldn't see or
cope with that I had to bolt from that, and left you dead in the sea It's
better for me, I'm satisfied with reppin for D
We were certified hot,
then dropped to lukewarm Now we back up in the spot, claimin never been
gone Niggaz who cut us off, wanna reattach us now (Them girls who brushed
us off, say they want some #'s to dial) Yeah I give that ass a number, and
some lumber to pile Now catch a curve from my kick (or show me lovin by
brick) So stick to the same plan, don't come shakin my hand like we
peeps, it ain't beef but be sure to understand Between us, it ain't
all..
Chorus
You see them kids be schemin on what we done
copped Always out there schemin! They steady fiendin for the moment they
can get us off the block Why they always fiendin?
Your people might
have your back, but you need to watch your front Indeed, ain't nothin
guaranteed
That's the truth! Things ain't goin like you think they
should
A lot say they wanna walk in my size 10's Aight then; here's a
pair Lace 'em up tight then you might feel what was dealt to me You see
ain't no young boys up in here; keep a clear head Tryin to keep my pockets
on stuffed - like deer heads upon the wall, so all the gall we get from
y'all DON'T FAZE So mind your biz and walk away cause I'm never gonna let
you up inside my maze
I don't care about what you think you see the
thangs you want to know when you look at me God knows I done been there and
paid my dues I can't change how you feel, cause it's all, on
you-whoahhha-ohhhhh
