This track is truly "Unexpected" as it comes soaring in with its funky R&B instrumentation and melodic delivery. The lyrics speak of a woman pushed to her brink in a loveless relationship that she wants nothing to do with. This is what it sounds like when you get angry right before you get even.
lyrics
Ahh
Uh-uh, Eh, ah, Oooh
Ahh
Uh-uh, Eh, ah, Oooh
If you don't love me then tell me, babe
You don't have to go and drive me crazy
I love how you came in like a hurricane
I couldn't stop ya if I wanted, babe
Yeah
When I saw you, should've seen my face
Oh I know
I know I look stuck on stupid like I just came
But little did I know (Know, No)
You were a wolf in sheep's clothes
And most would call me stupid
But you can't know what you don't know
As time will unfold (Unfold)
It told a story of my demise
If I don't open my eyes
You thought you could fool a real bish like me
But you can't
You can't fool me
You thought you could fuck me good and I wouldn't see
But you can't
You can't, no
Pulled the wool over my eyes, And I may act surprised
But I
Just might do something unexpected
I could write a book out of all your lies
Lies
The intro of when we met
The middle is all sex
But then the end is your demise (Are we surprised)
I really wanted things to work with you
And you would tell me (Me too)
And, yeah, I believed you
But little did I know (Know, No)
You were a wolf in sheep's clothes
And most would call me stupid
But you can't know what you don't know
As time will unfold (Unfold)
It told a story of my demise
If I don't open my eyes
You thought you could fool a real bish like me
But you can't
You can't fool me
You thought you could fuck me good and I wouldn't see
But you can't
You can't, no
Pulled the wool over my eyes, And I may act surprised
But I
Just might do something unexpected
If I KNOW I'm on the LEDGE in my prime
I got the knowledge
Id rather make a collage than go to college
Put me in a HOME at old AGE
You paying homage
I got the SOL wit ID you know I'm solid
'Missin 'U' but-I-got the soul of the 'sol' I'm in the sun's spot
Issues wit my daddy had me stoned off the moon rock
Throwing stones at Stonehenge we landmarks
Stones throw couldn't skip these gems on land partner
Watermarking you marks I know you counterfeit
I got my ear in the streets I know the sound of it
BUT it sounded way better
When I heard the noise of Floyd's death was makin US strike in May weather
I'm a black man
But I know evil when I see it
These DEMON seekin believers be leakin the devil's secrets
I'm tweakin
Got me reekin of privilege I never knew
BEING part of a lie was me ignoring the truth
Light skinned, mixed breed
I thought the STRIKE of the Black Lightning was revolution
Guess it was BlitzKrieg
If we takin over
Just be honest
Would the reign of a nigga be anything without baking soda no
Yoda flow
PLAY the game I too can
Two can play the game I can fools like canned foods
And that's a spam move
I overreact if you phone home wit rotary jacks I landlines with ease
You thought you could fool a real bish like me
But you can't
You can't fool me
You thought you could fuck me good and I wouldn't see
But you can't
You can't, no
Pulled the wool over my eyes, And I may act surprised
But I
Just might do something unexpected
