Brand Nubian - Where Are You Now? lyrics

[Sadat X] Explain the women that I keep Goin through my house and sh** when I'm asleep We bang heads a lot, we bang beds a lot You ask questions a lot, and try to trip me up But I ain't never been the one that's tryin to bend And no it wasn't me that was seen by your friends She thinks she saw me, makin sh** stormy Most in my path'll probably say they love me Say they thinkin of me but they can't be with me It's no hate, one was even tryin to wait So for her I tried to run my sh** straight Did I want to set the date, I said let's leave it by fate, and then she skate The world ain't sh** and everything ain't great Whoever in this trade done swayed into the cons Of they s**ual liasons and past dealings Smashed the four wheel and stay forever concealed [Chorus: Starr] Where are you now, that, I need you, with me Where are you now, that, the chips, are down Where are you now, I'm, sad, and, lonely Now that I need you girl, you're, not around [Grand Puba] It seem like 85% of most b**hes more concerned about n***as with riches but uncapable of washin the dishes Attitude always suspicious, she fulfill your every wishes And she dig the way you got up in them britches Always expressin her undyin love for a thug Now who said you can't find romance in a nightclub Now you bugged, backrubs in the hot tub Got you believin that this pigeon ain't thinkin dubs Damn, she like game airtight, but you know the rule When you bag a joint and twist it on the first night (uh-huh) That sh**'s a might if the a** is alright If that sh** ain't really tight, she probably did the same thing last night 'Long as the paper pilin, then she smilin Ain't thinkin 'bout whylin, you takin her to different islands But let your paper fall short, Cristal turn to cork Then you turn around and ask that b**h for support [Chorus] [Lord Jamar] Uh, uh, yo When a n***a had money you was there; funny how Everytime I turned around, you was there When it was time for you to get your hair (uh) your nails and your gear But at my court date, you failed to appear Fought my case on appeals, it took over a year And in that time, a n***a didn't see nor hear Got to the point there was no respect at all I was shocked when you did not collect my call Spent nights in my cell just beatin my dick Thinkin 'bout, how we used to f** and sh** I took you out, bought your a** a bunch of sh** When I get out, I'm gonna f**in punch this b**h Right then I'm out, cause she don't understand the rules You don't bite the man that dipped your hand in j**els You were there when I bought the rock to blind you Now a n***a locked and I can't find you [Chorus] - 2X [Starr] Where are you now (where where where where)
