BACK THEN
Back Then,
you didn’t want me
Now yo ass is callin’ on me
Back Then,
when I was down on my luck
You didn’t give me a chance,
you didn’t give a f**k
Back Then,
you didn’t even wanna know me
Now that I got the ends you wanna bl*w me
Back Then,
when I didn’t have two nickels to rub
All I was to you was a scrub
Now that I’m sailin’ the seas on high
Now you show up lookin’ for a ride
Sorry girlfriend but I have set sail
There’s a sign on my back that reads:
“No ridin’ my coat tail”
Back Then,
all you did was call me out my name
You fed me your ass and play’d me a game
Now I made it, but still I walk the same
Broke ass black boy; You remember callin’ me those names?
To this day I know you must feel ashamed
Or you wouldn’t be tryin’ to get into my game
To this day I’m not even mad at you
Because;
Back Then,
my troubles wasn’t gone last always, this I knew
Your girlfriends tellin’ me how you wanna get with me now
Sorry to tell ya trick, but no way, no how
When you read this, I hope you understand
One thing in life I don’t do is, I don’t take second hand
If you remembered me from way back when
You should’ve got with my ass...
Back Then
