Lletres: Syleena Johnson. Chapter 2: The Voice. Guess What.

Listen, baby

I don't see no rings on these fingers
So I'm not gonna deal with your drama
Long as you're with me, you got to show respect
Get out and get a job and bring home a check

See, I will love you till the day I die
But never love you enough that I'mma live a lie
So three snaps up, three snaps down
Wanna be treated like a king you better wear the crown

Wanna play the boss, guess what
You got to pay the cost, sho' 'nuff
You wanna wear the pants, guess what
You got to be a man, sho' 'nuff

Hangin' out with your friends, guess what
Don't watch what time you come in, sho' 'nuff
Don't wanna pay the bills, guess what
I know somebody who will, sho' 'nuff, listen

Now we've been shackin' up since '93
I ain't gettin' no younger, I need some guarantee
The best years of my life is what I've given you
Argue, fuss and fight, seems that's all you do

And us goin' to church always in your plans
But come Sunday mornin' you play sick in bed

See, I will love you till the day I die
But never love you enough to live a lie
So three snaps up, three snaps down
Wanna be treated like a king you've gotta wear the crown

Wanna play the boss, guess what
You got to pay the cost, baby, sho' 'nuff
You wanna wear the pants, guess what
You got to be a man, sho' 'nuff

Hangin' out with your friends, guess what
Better watch what time you come in, sho' 'nuff
Don't wanna pay the bills, guess what
I know somebody who will, sho' 'nuff

Think we've got some issues at hand
We need to address 'em, baby, yeah
I need you to understand
That I've got needs too

Over and over again
I put up with your childish games
I just can't be raisin' no man
Wanna be treated like a king then wear the crown

Wanna play the boss, guess what
You got to pay the cost, sho' 'nuff
You wanna wear the pants, yeah, guess what
You got to be a man, sho' 'nuff

Hangin' out with your friends, guess what
Watch what time you come in, sho' 'nuff
Don't wanna pay the bills, guess what
I know somebody who will, sho' 'nuff, listen

You hurt me for the last time, guess what
It's time to tell you what's on my mind, sho' 'nuff
Always rippin' runnin' these streets, guess what
Well, I found someone that's gonna take care of me, sho' 'nuff

Nothin' but lies comin' out your mouth, guess what
Might as well go on back to your mama's house, sho' 'nuff
'Cause you've been messin' around, yeah, guess what
And now it's time to put you down, sho' 'nuff

Really ain't comin' to your door, guess what
I'm not gonna take your shit no more, sho' 'nuff
Ladies, ladies, ladies, guess what
Tell me can you feel me, sho' 'nuff

Ladies, ladies, ladies, guess what
Tell me can you feel me, sho' 'nuff
Ladies, ladies, ladies, guess what
Tell me can you feel me, sho' 'nuff
Ladies, ladies, ladies, guess what
Tell me can you feel me, sho' 'nuff
