The fourth track on Don’t Go Tellin' Your Momma, Black Tame tells the story of a woman who is an Instagram influencer, obsessed with modern trends (fashion, makeup, plastic surgery, modeling, etc.)
[Chorus]
I really wanna be your lover (Lover)
But I can never make up my mind, I'm thinkin' 'bout the other girls
I really wanna be your lover
But I can never make up my mind, I'm thinkin' 'bout the other girls
[Verse 1: Topaz Jones]
Uh, what else did you expect me to do?
Somethin' special in them jeans, they be stretchin' the truth
She put a pep in the step of the Pepé Le Pews
And had the reverend swеatin', half the choir lept from the pеw
(Ooh, ooh, ooh ooh, haha, yeah)
Uh, if you bring her home to momma, bet she'll never approve
Plus she love to ask about the one that you've been exclusive with
Cross her, that could be the nail in yo' crucifix
I hear the tick-tockin' now time to lock it down (Oh, yeah)
Your homies sayin' don't commit, nigga, shop around (Yeah)
Birds flock around, we flirt a bit (Ah, ah)
But soon as I find time for us to kick it, then I'm Charlie Brown
Uh, and what's the cause of it?
If it's a fatal attraction, what's the laws of it?
I really need the attention, give me all of it
I flick it up for the freaks, I bet they all love it, yeah
[Chorus]
I really wanna be your lover (Lover)
But I can never make up my mind, I'm thinkin' 'bout the other girls
I really wanna be your lover (Uh)
But I can never make up my mind, I'm thinkin' 'bout the other girls
[Verse 2: Topaz Jones]
I used to say "When I get older I'll have all the hoes"
But my momma raised me right so I don't call them hoes
I mean I call em but it's just on some platonic shit (My homegirl)
At least until the chronic lit, gin and tonic mix (Yeah)
You ain't the man unless you got a chick for every occasion
Milkshake from McDonald's thick, or skinny and basic
And subtractin' an ex never in the equation
No better than cavemen, had me trippin' tryna step with Temptations (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
But I could have two left feet and no rhythm
If she did give a sec to me, it's no kiddin'
Could tell it in her eyes, need umbrellas for her cries
She been tellin' little lies the size of Nicole Kidman
And I have to, do whatever for that woo-woo-woo
They boo-hooin while I boo-who you?
Need somethin' new, yeah, need somethin' new (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
[Chorus]
I really wanna be your lover
But I can never make up my mind, I'm thinkin' 'bout the other girls
I really wanna be your lover (Oh, oh, oh, oh, woo)
But I can never make up my mind, I'm thinkin' 'bout the other girls
[Verse 3: Topaz Jones]
Found a fast track for paper, she made of plastic (Ooh)
Now a hourglass, her shape lookin' elastic (Ah)
Not a hour passed without the shouts and harassment (Ah, ah)
Got a lotta followers hollerin' for a pic or
At least an at to acknowledge them (Ooh)
Uh, teach a college course on her collagen
Got endorsements and sponsors (Ah)
And they promisin' a bag at the doorstep for the promo (Ah, ah)
It's like her big ol' Rihanna forehead is a logo (Ooh, ah)
But so goes the saga, if she can make more than her momma
While walkin' in them clunky Balenciagas, who am I to judge it?
These rappers trickin' 'til they out of budget (Ah, ah)
Just to get attention when they out in public
This what it come with, how you love it? (Ooh)
Or how you love anyone in particular when they comin' in hundreds? (Ah)
We was raised to be the hunters (Ah, ah)
And providers for our mothers if our Fathers didn't love us
Our sisters would get the brunt of it (Ooh)
Run through bitches just for the fun of it (Ah)
Uh, yeah, at what point you had enough of it? (Ah, ah)
Settle down, you know, the husband bit? Ah!
Yeah, this the culture I was accustomed with (Ooh)
We tried adjustin' but we couldn't get the cuffs to fit (Ah)
And she be quick to fisticuffs when we discussin' it (Ah, ah)
Keep it a stack with you, brick by brick, we'll build the trust again
[Outro]
Ooh, ah, ah, ah
Oh, Tammy, she said:
"You, you, you have a rich man's, uh, family"
And she said: "You got the boy first and the girl second"
They wanted that boy to carry on the family name
And then, and what was so amazing:
That my son had a son, and my daughter had a daughter
And your daughter had a daughter
