Mc Lyte - Please Understand Lyrics
[ female voice ] I just want you to understandI just want you to understand[ male voice] - understand what?[ verse 1 ]I met a guy named tommy, damn, he charmed meMet him at the mall, but I knew he wouldnt harm meWe exchanged numbers, hopin to meet againWe couldnt wait for the romance to beginThe relationship grew strongI didnt wanna be right if this love was wrongBut oh no, came the problems, the first segmentThe dumb kid went and got some girl pregnantThe second segment: started wheelin and dealinDidnt give a damn about how lyte was feelinBut then he got wise, started treatin me betterCause all of his friends said I was a go-getterHe knew he was usin me, and abusin meHe also knew that soon hed be losin meFirst I clocked him, yeah, I docked himBut I rocked him - and then I dropped him[ verse 2 ]Then there was dave, couldnt behaveSo I punished him and put him in my lyte-as-a-rock caveThen he got bold, tried to play insaneSo bigfoot threw him off my paperthin trainHe tried to 10%-dis me, but he pissed me offCause Im the boss, and you know Im not havin itLyte is too dope, and you know I aint crabbin itThen there was henry, way too friendlyI needed a trip, he said he would send mePay my airfare, if he could come with meI said, listen, honey, I dont need your moneyBelieve me when I tell you, Ive got my ownCause Im mc lyte on the microphoneYeah[ verse 3 ]Heres another story: a dude named coreyWhen I used to work, yes, I was a clerkAt the worldtrade center, back in high schoolThis little player musta thought I was a foolHe took me out to lunch, offered me a ride homeWhen we got there, he asked could he use my telephoneI said, yeah, sure, flipped him to the floorCause he said whats up? and tried to feel my buttI kicked him down the stairs and said, what youre provin?Rolled him to his car and said, get movin!He tried to score it, I wasnt goin for itYou cant play me, Im lyte thee mcNever saw his face again until last weekAll beat up and bleedin down the streetI looked to my left, there was a girl with a pipe in her handSayin, why oh why cant you understand?
