| Open your eyes baby, no cry baby
|
| Smokin on Alabama watching the tides raging
|
| Eyes glazing over I’m sober knowing your mind racing
|
| I’m patient knowing you tokin over your pride
|
| But won’t deny ya status
|
| See I won’t give you no pressure
|
| Imma let you get your pleasure at all conceivable measures
|
| But Imma lecture you after lettin them demons test ya
|
| Cuz I’m expecting you to regret you even defected
|
| But who am I to judge?
|
| Nah who am I to budge
|
| My position is liftin
|
| I just want you to rise above
|
| My love don’t cost a thing
|
| I’m just trying to let you know
|
| That I can see you hit that J
|
| But you focused on getting low
|
| And ain’t no good company at the bottom
|
| You fall or you climb
|
| When you choose the latter then say you got em
|
| And if you at capacity somethin get left behind
|
| But if it’s love then they ain’t trippin just let em know that you tryin
|
| (Just let em know that you tryin)
|
| Umm Hmm
|
| I’ll try to sympathize with ya baby
|
| Umm Hmm
|
| Cuz you can’t get away
|
| Umm Hmm
|
| (Just let em know that you tryin)
|
| I’ll try to sympathize with ya baby
|
| Umm Hmm
|
| Ain’t no sympathy from ya enemy
|
| Know misery love Co. so no chillin if you ain’t kin to me
|
| I know family more than blood
|
| So if you on my side I need loyalty more than love
|
| And if you with the tribe don’t never claim to be Phife if you Jarobi
|
| No sauce nigga you just dressin on the side
|
| Don’t cross the line know that ya blessings come with tithes
|
| And your ties come from decadence keepin eyes on the prize
|
| But never tried in the race you just looked for the finish line
|
| Know all the pines in the maze but just calculatin the crime
|
| Holdin caps on the letter that’s for the better for you
|
| Down for whatever until whatever come true
|
| But I can’t put no faith in my right to care for my left
|
| So I can’t wait for time to tell me stop holdin my breath
|
| Look I ain’t buyin I know what you’re selling
|
| But we trading crumbs for diamonds
|
| Don’t know what to tell ya I’m just focusing on my stylus
|
| So know I’m not ditchin I’m just letting you know I’m trying
|
| (Hey Just let you know that I’m trying)
|
| Umm Hmm
|
| I’ll try to sympathize with ya baby
|
| Umm Hmm
|
| Cuz you can’t get away
|
| Umm Hmm
|
| (Just let em know that you tryin)
|
| I’ll try to sympathize with ya baby
|
| Umm Hmm |
