First Verse:
I seen it coming
Like diamonds glisten, gleam in the sun & this is just the scenery seasons seen as meaningless nothings..
She heard the stories but she'on't be believing a**umptions
Thinking to myself, is she crazy is she evil or something...
...is she one of these high cla** divas or something
She'on't need me neither that's why it's so intriguing & troubling
...she's intelligent even, she could keep a discussion...
Got her own visa, she tell me she could lease it, it's nothing...
She's discrete, always keep my secrets from something
Love at first sight, but this feel like the sequel or somethin'...
I never keep it I don't wanna see it leave
I cherish it while it last, why she'd wanna be w me
It's beyond me...always thought you'd never stick around
She tell me it's better n***as but they never fit the crown....
...just a couple things you need to understand
While you piecing up the puzzle w these pieces of the man...

Second Verse:
Started back in '84 that was way before
I would start mining my diamonds...momma's baby boy
I used to dream about women, money & champagne
The sh** that's funny 'bout getting money, you can't change
Here's a couple things you need to understand
While you piecing up the puzzle, w these pieces of the man
See, I got demons inside that's seem to be stuck w me
I'm terrified the thought of you leaving me seem to f** w me
Sit your self down, let's skip over the subtleties
...hotel suites, doubled at the double tree's
Sweet...let's get together like a puzzle piece...
What happened between us that night, it never seemed to puzzle me...
...she lit a spliff, I pour a cup of tea
It's less about you & I, more about us & we...
I got issues w trust, it's interrupting me
Pieces of the man, you keep em, you need the puzzle piece
