LYRICS FOR "You Got Me"
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don't worry
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don't worry you know that you got me
Somebody told me that this planet was small
We used to live in the same building on the same floor
And never met before until I'm overseas on tour
And peep this Ethiopian Queen from Philly taking classes abroad
She's studying film in photo flash focus record
Said she working on a flick and could my clique do the score
She said she love my show in Paris at Elyse Montmartre
And that I stepped off the stage and took a piece of her heart
We knew from the start that things fall apart
Intense and shatter
When I get home
Whatever
Think that dog went home and forgot?
Time passed
Telling me the things I'm telling her is makin' her hot
Started building with her constantly 'round the clock
Now she in my world like hip-hop and keep telling me
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don't worry
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don't worry you know that you got me
Yo
And sometimes I got to be out at the height of the night
And that's when she flip and get on some
It seems like I'm on the side
I know you gotta get that paper daddy
But yo
While politickin' with my sister from New York City
She said she know this ball player and he think I'm pretty
Sike
And when cats be poppin' game I don't hear what they sayin'
When you out there in the world
With all my classes I don't have the time for life's thrills
So when you sweatin' on state
And don't be listenin' to your homies
Yeah
Is you crazy? You my king
But sometimes
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don't worry
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don't worry you know that you got me
That snake could be that chick and that rat
Could be that cool cat that's whisperin'
She's trying to play you for the fool
If something's on your chest then let it be known
See I'm not your every-five-minutes
And on the topic of trust
That people bite back and fracture what's in tact
And they'll forever be
I deal wit the real
I seen people caught in love like whirlwinds
Listening to they squalls and listenin' to they girlfriends
That's exactly the point where they whole world ends
Lies come in
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don't worry
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don't worry you know that you got me
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don't worry
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby don't worry you know that you got me
If you don't worry 'bout where I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
