Chorus:
Beyonce:
Yo, where the brotha by my side at?
Mekhi:
Yo, you really need to stop that.
B:
Get it right!
M:
It's not even like that.
B:
Try to get a job, before we livin’ out a box, Black.
M:
Put it on that, and there’s your demo, you can shop that.
Verse 1:
B:
It’s funny how things turn around
Last night you tryin’ get down
You act like you down
Any other time it’s like you steady hatin’ on Brown
I’m tryin’ to see my name in lights
You tryin’ to start off the ground
M:
You the one that’s got it twisted ‘cause I’m right by your side
I had a bad day, you jumpin’ on my back for a ride
What can a man say; I’m on the run, just for your auditioning
Tryin’ to call you every night, it’s like you never listening
B:
You’re the one that’s switching up, and getting too specific
When you say that I’m just dreamin’, I’ll be rollin’ like a Michelin
M:
Carmen, you just trippin’, ‘cause you know my love is infinite
Just so you could be here, look at everything I did for this
B:
So, why you actin’ like that
You don’t have to take it anymore, fight back
I came too far to turn around and just hike back
Tryin’ to get me sidetracked
See me on the corner with a sign, where the time at
Chorus
B:
Hey yo, I came from the projects
Now I want the condos
Tryin’ to be a star
But now you messin’ up my cosmos
M:
But you can’t find nothing
If you walking with a blindfold
Carmen, I can see right through you
With my eyes closed
B:
Romance, and finance
M:
You actin’ like a nuisance
B:
You’re the one that’s in the club
And tryin’ to do a new dance
M:
Songs you got me singing
Like my name was Bobby Blue Bland
Or maybe Sammy
‘Cause the games your playin’, baby, two can
