*click* *dialtone* *numbers being
dialed*
*phone rings, is picked up right
away*

[G1] HELLO?!
[G2] Whassup
girl..
[G1] Ain't nothin - this nigga in here
stressin
talkin that old off the wall back to
Africa shit again
[G2] What, that God Body
shit?
[G1] Yeah, that dumb shit
I'm tryin
to get up OUTTA here
[G2] I hear that.. but
yo, you know the spot is pumpin tonight
[G1]
Word f'real where?
[G2] You know, where the
real niggaz is poppin the Cristal
NOT THAT
WHITE STUFF!
[G1] Ha hah! Word where the real
niggaz at?

[JoJo Hailey]
Listen.. to
reason
Pretty baby baby
listen..

[Nas]
A young wild beautiful
love child
You like them thug style link
rockin, then mink coppin
Hit you on the sink a
hundred dollar drink poppin
The head'll make
you take him shoppin, a foul
doctrine
Reminiscent of my first time up in a
chick
You was innocent, but now you
rent-a-dick, wear the tightest shit
Chanel
lookin real, airbrushed nails
Hit the gym, hit
the scales, heaven-sent but negligent (so
fine..)
To see a prophecy, your ebony tone is
lockin me
The way you moan make me daydream of
you on top of me
Wishin I could be the one man;
but you juggle
way too many Willies all in one
hand
You wanna run up in clubs, gettin rubbed
on
Niggaz pull your hair, shake your fat
rear
Get your fuck on - followin week, you
back there
But what you stuck on, weed, clowns
and cars
Puffin with some lil nigga, husband
not knowin she's out
Could you believe Eve,
Mother Earth of the seas
Niggaz thirst you,
you just let em hurt you and leave
What up
mah, frontin like you naive
Pusherman's whip,
callin police when you flip
Can't understand
it, yo it should be a throne for us
But for
now that's a whole different zone from us,
word!

Chorus: JoJo Hailey

Diamonds
all shinin, lookin all fine
Pretty little
face, get a little high
Young girl stugglin,
tryin to survive
Mother of the Earth, she made
you and I
Just tired of playin the same ol'
games
Messin with my mind, emotional
thangs
And there goes.. a black girl..
lost

[Nas]
Like Isis, she got you
heartbroke and felt lifeless
Grow up girl
instead you want revenge so now you act the
nicest
to who'sever gettin down and
trifless
To get his mind all you do is give
him somethin priceless
Cause in time he'll
realize the thighs is all he needs
More than
weed, then you hit him off with lies and greed
(deceit, yeah)
There you go again, startin
wars, makin me more yours
Seem to get a kick
out of keepin me on all fours
Face glistenin,
I'm addicted to you
Original, Wisdom Body got
me picturin you
Igloos of ice trickin on you,
you never listen
to this nigga spendin
Franklins on tennis anklets
Must've had a bad
deal in the past though
Can't even keep it
real with a nigga with cash flow
Say men are
all the same, what we need to do is break this
chain
You got a job part-time and school's
your night thing
With dreams to settle down,
it ain't far from now
You gettin interviewed,
but your boss is into gettin screwed
Typical
day that the black girl sees
Comin home wantin
more from a college
degree

Chorus

[Nas]
Where are
you focused, on legit niggaz and where the coke
is
Nice and Thug Life niggaz, yo you seem
hopeless
Your value - too much to be measured,
I wonder how you
could ever be played, your
pussy worth gold amountin to
more than the
world, but not knowin nothin about you
You
leavin the crib, takin all your kids out
to
drop them off, lettin some nigga knock you
off
So hot and soft, that's the same thing
that got you lost (you should be
ashamed)
Growin up seein it, it should remind
you, you bein lied to
Everything that move be
inside you
Sacred as you are, left with these
wannabes to guide you
I watched you, hard to
knock you, I tried not to
They spot you out
dancin topless in your drawers
Damn look,
there goes a black girl lost

[JoJo
Hailey]
You should be ashamed of
yourself
The way you carry yourself
The way
you hang out all night long
Doin silly things
that is wrong
Black girl.. *fades out*
