Erykah Badu
If you were worried bout where
I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby, dont worry you know that you got me

Black Thought
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 Im over seas on tour
And peep this Ethiopian queen from Philly takin classes abroad
Shes studyin film and photo, flash, focus, record
Says shes workin on a flick and could my click do the score
She says she loved my show at Paris at Elyse Montmartre
That I stepped off the stage and took a piece of her heart
We knew from the start that things fall apart and tend to shatter
She like, that shit dont matter, when I get home get at her
Through letter, phone, whatever
Lets link, lets get together
Shit, you think not? You think that Thought went home and forgot?
Time passed, now were back in Philly and she up in my spot
Tellin me the things Im tellin her is makin her hot
Started buildin with her constantly, round the clock
Now she in my world like hip-hop
And keep tellin me

Erykah Badu
If you were worried bout where
I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby, dont worry you know that you got me

Black Thought
Yo, Im the type thats always catchin a flight
And sometimes I got to be out at the height of the night
Thats when she flip and get on some

Eve
Another lonely night?
Seems like Im on the side, you only lovin your mic
I know you gotta get that paper daddy
Keep that shit tight
But I need some sort of love in my life
You dig me?
While politicin with my sister from New York City
She say she know this ball player and he think Im pretty
Psyche,
Im playin boo
You know its just with you Im stayin boo
When cats be poppin game I dont hear what they sayin boo
While youre out there in the world, Im still your girl
With all my classes I dont have the time for lifes thrills
So when youre sweatin on the stage, think of me when you rhyme
And dont be listenin to your homies, they be leadin you blind

Black Thought
So what you sayin I can trust you?

Eve
Is you crazy, you my king, for real.

Both
But sometimes relationships get ill. No doubt.

Erykah Badu
If you were worried bout where
I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby, dont worry you know that you got me

Black Thought
The snake could be that chick
And that rat could be that cool cat
Thats whisperin She tryin to play you for the fool, Black
If somethings on your chest then let it be known
See Im not your every five minutes all on the phone
And on the topic of trust its just a matter of fact
That people bite back and fracture whats intact
And theyll forever be,
I aint on some Oh Im a celebrity
I deal with the real so if its artificial let it be
I seen people caught in love like whirlwinds
Listenin to their squaws and listenin to girlfriends
Thats exactly the point where they whole world ends
Lies come in and thats where the drama begins
She like

Erykah Badu
If you were worried bout where
I been or who I saw or
What club I went to with my homies
Baby, dont worry you know that you got me
