[Intro: Roy Ayers]
Say butterfly
Up in the sky
I got a story to say
And I'll tell you why I'm searchin'
Used to be some [?], [?]
Used to be some [?], [?]
Used to be some [?], [?]
Used to be some [?], [?]
Do you think I am?
[Verse 1: POETIK]
Let me take you back before the weed sales
Before the crack pipes and E's else, Poetik started out on retail
Southside, super Cinemaniac city
[?] of Manakau, I was blessed like [?]
I recite, but rockin' mics didn't come with food or lights
Wanted a better life so started a 9-to-5
Number 55 on Lambie Drive, you know the place
Between bunnies and [?], yeah, you know the place
First job, memories I hold tight
Many role call, hold the phone, man, it go like, uh
Samantha, Quincy, Michelle, Rihanna, [?]
[?], Evan and [?]
And Tainumi Tony, Tammy, Giovanni, Peter and [?]
[?] and I can't forget Miss [?]
A lot of other cats claimin' what this how it was
But check it, this is the tale of a girl I used to love
Used to kiss and hug, even kept a picture of
Used to write a poem, send them in a text followed by some liquor
Pictures; now I'm in the mood for sex
I was young, 18 and hooked by the way she looked
When she passed by, it was a trap with them light brown eyes
First time that she entered the stock room, I stopped, dude
Addicted to the scent of her perfume, I got to
[Chorus: ]
[?], [?] used to be a [?]
[?], [?] used to be a [?]
[?], [?] used to be a [?]
[?], [?] used to be a [?]
[Verse 2: POETIK]
Man, the way she smelled, oh my god, man, the way she smelled
First time I held her close, dawg, the way she felt
She had a man though but I could tell that she wasn't happy
Couldn't understand a girl; if you were mine, I'd be the papi
Through time, I got closer to you, ma, laid my game
I was tryna hear you scream my name
Hella checkin' for your mami, your body got an uce ready to ride for ya
Don't make me hurt somebody, sapelu murk somebody
You and Tony used to slide through my spot
Swear your pretty smile tied up my heart
Remember Tammy's party? Shit, you're a freak for real
But the second time we made love for real
See, you was beefin' with your man [?]
I was like, "Baby, you should roll with me and spend the night"
Back to P-Block to G-rage, where I stay, lights out
Mattress on the floor where we laid
Ghetto love, rough sex, hit it like it was my first time
Used to love you even though you weren't mine
Girl, you still shine, never could forget your scent
Half white, half [?] with a god, the bomb puss
[Interlude: POETIK]
Whoo (Whoo-whoo)
Um, 26
I'ma just cut this story right there, uce
And, um, just bring that sample back in and let it ride
[Chorus: [?]]
[?], [?] used to be a [?]
[?], [?] used to be a [?]
[?], [?] used to be a [?]
[?], [?], do you think I am?
