[Verse 1: DMX]
I'm politicin' with this chicken,✦ wonderin' if I'ma✦ creep her
Little hoodrat bitch from 25th named✦ Tenika✦
Comin'✦ through, like I do, you know, gettin'✦ my bark on
Knew she was a thug, 'cause, when I met her, she had a scarf on
54-11, size 7 in girls
Baby✦ face, would look like she was eleven✦ with curls
Girlfriend (What?)
Remember me from way back?
I'm the same cat with the wave cap
That motherfucker that TNT used✦ to blaze at (Woo)
Still here, so it's all good
Oh, you know my niggas✦ Rich and them doin' they thing on 35th? Damn, it's a small hood
And it's all wood, so let me get that number,✦ I get up (Aight)
Hit you on the jack later✦ on, see what's up
Talkin'✦ to shorty✦ make me wanna✦ do somethin'✦ nice (What?)
Lookin'✦ at that ass make me wanna✦ do somethin'✦ tonight (Uh)
And I know right when I see right, shorty✦ lookin'✦ like she tight
And she bite, better✦ give a nigga✦ the green light, we might
[Chorus: DMX, Lovey & Schamika]
What type of games✦ are bein' played? How's it goin' down? (All I want is you)
It's on 'til it's gone, then I gots to know now (All I want)
Is you with me, or what? Think I'm trying to get me a nut (All I want is you)
Just 'cause honeys✦ wanna✦ give me the butt (All I want)
What type of games✦ are bein' played? How's it goin' down? (All I want is you)
It's on 'til it's gone, then I gots to know now (All I want)

[Verse 2: DMX]
I'm gettin'✦ at shorty✦ like, "What you need? What you want?" (Huh?)
Want for nothin',✦ 'cause I got you, but you front (True)
I see you with your baby✦ father,✦ but it don't matter✦
Since you gave me the pussy,✦ that ass is gettin'✦ fatter✦ (Woah)
Let that nigga✦ play daddy,✦ make moves✦ with me
I've done kept it more than real, boo, can't lose with me (True)
Heard he smacked you 'cause you said my name while y'all was sexin'✦ (Woah)
Ran up on this cat he thought was me and started flexin'✦ (Uh)
You know I ain't even✦ with that, so he gon' have to get that just on GP
Try to creep me (What?), leave that nigga✦ sleepy✦
On the strength of you, well, that's your kid's daddy✦
I ain't gon' send him on his way, put him up in that big Caddy✦
But let him know, never✦ mind, yo, I need you to go
Take this snow up to 1-5-0, see Joe
Get that, come back with that, and we can split that, sit back
Fuck, puff a L, forget✦ that, you with that?
[Chorus: DMX, Lovey & Schamika]

[Verse 3: DMX]
Ayy, yo, this chicken✦ got me diggin'✦ her moves✦ 'cause she's smooth
Win or lose, whoever she choose, gets the dues (Aight)
Respect is not expected,✦ but it's given✦ 'cause it's real (Uh)
Being neglected's the norm, expected,✦ the deal (True)
Lie, cheat, and steal for me
Puttin'✦ somethin'✦ in a nigga's✦ wig if he squeal for me
Kill for me, you're still with me?
'Cause we get down, like, "What?"
Told you's from the door, it ain't all about✦ a nut
I'm gon' be fair, tryin' to be there, we gon' see then
Hit me with the question, boo, that answer✦ gon' be "Yeah"
See there, somethin'✦ can go wrong, it does
Loved✦ it, let it go, and it came back, that's how strong it was
But she belonged to cuz, couldn't belong✦ to me (Uh-uh)✦
She had two kids by this nigga,✦ it was wrong for me (Uh-uh)✦
But we gon' always✦ be best of friends (Ha-ha)✦
Mad love, boo, 'til the end (Ha-ha)✦
