Da Brat I Was The One Lyrics

I Was The One Lyrics

CHORUS

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) but i got my own whips, own chips, own crib and i don't need this shit
here

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) to be dependin on you, i'm a independent woman, sorry homie that 

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) to just settle for promises that you never kept, thought i would fail
but you won't cause

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) but you been proven false, the truth is you lost, I pay the cost to do
what ever i want, yeah



(Brat) he, thought i was virgin mary sweet as a nun, wanted to marry me with
hopes i'd carry his son, or his daughter the thought i otta stay out of the
parties, stay in the house, be lonesome, and talk to nobody, be cooped up for
the longest, with nothin but time, misery loves company but it ain't no friend
of mine

cooked and cleaned like a hebrew slave, till i got blisters, a modern day miss
ceelie, and he was my mister

but i woke up one day, started to get real slick called a couple of my friends
with a few scenarios, felt like a dance with the devil, didn't like being
happily married no more, had to go real quick, cause its my time, and i done
made up my mind shawntae gotta leave you behind, and get my dough cause half of
that's mine, and my drow to help me the daughter sunshine, you thought i
wouldn't make it but i'm livin proof, do on to others as you'd have mothafuckas
do on to you 





CHORUS

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) but i got my own whips, own chips, own crib and i don't need this shit
here

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) to be dependin on you, i'm a independent woman, sorry homie that 

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) to just settle for promises that you never kept, thought i would fail
but you won't cause

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) but you been proven false, the truth is you lost, I pay the cost to do
what ever i want, yeah



she, was my ace boon coon in high, we grew up together, you fucked with her i'd
fight you , and vice versa, from class to choir rehearsal, totin the bags,
slangin them sacks, and beat up all the hood rats, rolling off with the richest
niggas on the block and bring they whips back, but things changed when I started
to rap, jealousy kicked in, she wouldn't be my friend, she wasn't even lookin
out for me then, she didn't even have time to call me on the phone  to say
hello so good-bye, good-bye , you'll never get apiece of my love again  don't
try, my love is everlasting like Tony Terry , I'm very territorial and I'm over
protective to niggas I love, cause I respect them, but not this heffa, she took
things in a different direction, I can't protect her when its said and done,
shit, I am not the one, I need loyal buddies, supportive of me, roarin for me,
breakin my trust can get ugly so please don't mistake my kindness for weakness,
learn it, as I stomp trough the trenches on this tedious journey, I'm so hot my
feet burn , and you keep yearnin to be a part of my life but you done fucked it
up permanently, now it don't concern me no more



CHORUS 2X

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) but i got my own whips, own chips, own crib and i don't need this shit
here

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) to be dependin on you, i'm a independent woman, sorry homie that 

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) to just settle for promises that you never kept, thought i would fail
but you won't cause

(Anthony Hamilton) you thought i was the one

(Brat) but you been proven false, the truth is you lost, I pay the cost to do
what ever i want, yeah
