Sell

It all started with a lip stick stain

my baby started actin wild

and passin blame

I said somethin kinda insane

like I ain't a brotha

with a ball and chain

and then

she started shakin her head like sistas do

I let her walk out

called her later on my Cellie

but the call just wouldn't go through

 


What's up my boy say

yo dawg

what up wit Re?

I say

efff that I'll call her later today

she straight trippin

whoa..hold up

could this be the tippin

point

yo Brah

pass dat joint

normally I don't imbibe

but I'm feelin kinda creepy

deep inside

like is my baby creepin

all them nights I thought she was sleepin

now I'm wonderin what

little dirty secrets she be keepin

 

It all started with a

Sell Fone

inter-ruption

damn this femme gotta

alotta

gumption

my mind is goin crazaay

gettin kinda hazaay

is she gettin a little sumthin

sumthin

is another

brother

squeezin on my bran muffin

 

I mean

she know how Janice is

all touchy-feely

but she got a husband and 3 kids

and

an brotha like me repsect that

I don't take a fizz in another

cat's

hat

now she got me feelin like an unwelcome

mat

I can't even represent the real

facts

not since she shook her head

like a sista do

been callin and callin

but my call just won't go through

 

Gimme another Henny-N-pineapple

save the rocks

talked up a femme

got her number

walked down the street

2 my baby's block

hope her car would be parked outside

hold up

I touched the hood

she just came back from a ride

should I knock

or should I go

do I do

Or don't wanna know

damn

I'm just not thinkin straight

2 many Henny's and it's gettin

kinda late

 

Sell Fone

inter-ruption

damn

this femme gotta

alotta

gumption

my mind goin crazaay

gettin kinda hazaay

is she gettin a little sumthin

sumthin

is another

brother

squeezin n my bran muffin

 

I go home

talk 2 the dog

put my sweat suit on

2 take a jog

hold up

lemme check my blog

man

this feels like another log

on my fire

trust and respect goin up like a funeral pyre

my one and only desire

would be 2

rewind

the time

place her hand in mine

and just chill

let her say what she will

but

when you see that shakin of the head

like sistas do

500 Sell Fone calls

ain't gonna get through

 

Walked back 'round 2 her house

saw 2 people walkin out

I shout

and she looks startled and scared

unprepared

for my diatribe

OH HERE YOU IS BLAMIN ME 4 ..ISH

and this

is your cat on the side

so

like an angry man I went with the hunch

dropped dude

with just one punch

my baby looked at me kinda sinister

shook her head

lika a sista do

cried and whispered

you just knocked out my minister

he was tellin me 2 stop assuming

and see things through

and accept a Sell Fone call from

you

 

Sell Fone

inter-ruption

damn

I thought my femme had alotta

gumption

my mind went crazaay

2 many Henny's made me hazaay

thought she was gettin a little sumthin

sumthin

I was wrong

and now I'll never again be sueezin

on her bran muffin

 

Man...let this thang fade

brothas, take it from me

the worse feeling in the world

is when you get played

by yo DAMN SELF!!!
