[07:19.00]Intro/Chorus: repeat 2X
[07:19.00]Girl you know that you need
[07:19.00]to stop givin' me the silent.. treatment baby
[07:19.00]Can't you see what you mean to me?
[07:19.00]I wanna love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
[07:19.00]And treating me silently
[07:19.00]Verse One: BlackThought
[07:19.00]Yo, I had a Queen named Amina, height 5'7"
[07:19.00]Caramel-complected, body like heaven
[07:19.00]Met her through the sister of my man Big Vince
[07:19.00]Like some sh*t from out the flicks we been in love ever since
[07:19.00]She called me her chocolate brotha, I call her my sugar sista
[07:19.00]Knew Shorty could work it since before I ever kissed her
[07:19.00]I never dissed her, painted my picture to hit
[07:19.00]But because sex she wasn't with, she started flippin an' sh*t
[07:19.00]Like,"Listen man, I'm Queen Amina, Amina's not no freak and
[07:19.00]that game is weak and keep tryin to hit I could quit speakin
[07:19.00]Tariq in fact, you bein BlackThought don't get ya closer
[07:19.00]I dig ya but won't bone ya because I'm so-called supposed ta
[07:19.00]Most o' them would, but that couldn't be me, that's not my flava
[07:19.00]Go home and think about that, maybe later on I'll page ya..."
[07:19.00]I contemplated, and then concluded she was bluffin
[07:19.00]Steady pursuin screwin, gettin nothin but the silent treatment
[07:19.00]Chorus (+"Silently bay-bee" at end)
[07:19.00]Verse Two: BlackThought
[07:19.00]Crazy frustration, about my lovin situation
[07:19.00]When patience was a virtue, but I wasn't used to waitin
[07:19.00]I want some Marvin Gaye healin, feelin is real inside
[07:19.00]I slip and slide, my ride'll keep you occupied, I'd..
[07:19.00]love to get wit it like that, but my baby's kitty cat's capped
[07:19.00]and locked, Love Boat is docked at the shore
[07:19.00]And what for? Later for groupies on tour
[07:19.00]Why won't my sugar call me no more?
[07:19.00]I mean, my Queen gets upset, rejectin and sexually neglect
[07:19.00]Then sayin I'm more sewer than Das EFX, and closed-minded
[07:19.00]It's like I'm blinded by the skinnin
[07:19.00]I'm into women; because of that, this one's into communication
[07:19.00]Temptation played the vandal, freakin my brain, my mind
[07:19.00]Rippin the handle on physically scandalous acts
[07:19.00]Yo! She knew what I wanted, but she fronted
[07:19.00]... bust it
[07:19.00]Chorus
[07:19.00]Verse Three: BlackThought
[07:19.00]Well umm
[07:19.00]Movin right along with the song, plus the strong
[07:19.00]feelings on my mind, desire to intertwine
[07:19.00]Combine and blend, baby bust a message that I send
[07:19.00]Ain't no need to pretend, cause sh*t is real til the end
[07:19.00]I provide a place to hide from crime, hard times
[07:19.00]and livin trife, while I open ya mind, you're in my life
[07:19.00]like love, it ain't no way no one can rise above what's real
[07:19.00]That's why I'm feelin like you're makin me bugged
[07:19.00]I puff an El on fifty deuce while I walk in the rain
[07:19.00]Heart feelin killa pain while I hop the train
[07:19.00]Dial her number to the rest, and ain't no messages left
[07:19.00]Regardless, my chest thumps from stress, yo it's a mess
[07:19.00]I don't know what I got to do to make you understand
[07:19.00]I'm for real and that's no question, no frontin or no guessin
[07:19.00]Undressin, carressin, in the span, that I contain in my hand
[07:19.00]could touch and make you say that I'm such a man
[07:19.00]and call my name, so let me set your body aflame
[07:19.00]I'll never treat you like a dame or run game
[07:19.00]Now who's to blame?
[07:19.00]I know you're not a hoe for niggaz with a lot of dough
[07:19.00]But I just wanted you to know
[07:19.00]Chorus (+"silently" at end)
[07:19.00]Chorus 1/2 (+"silently, si-lent-ly" at end)
[07:19.00]*whistling of music fades away*
