Used to Be Lyrics


Say I'm fucked up
Well, you might just be fucked up too
Might be fucked up
Well baby girl, how about you?You used to be my nigga
You used to be that cool bitch
You used to smoke with a nigga
but now you on that bullshit
You used to sex me crazy
You used to call me baby
Now all you do is nag me
like a five year old from the back seat
You used to be so confident
but all that shit came and went
You used to be anti-internet
but now you constantly blogging and shitYou used to strip for a nigga
Now you ain't got nothing but lip for a nigga
Halfway decent for me, but you dress up for your girlfriends
Listenin' to what they say got your ass without a husband

Put you up in the Benz, you did everything to get me
Ain't did nothing since but keep talkin' bout what it should be
Car, daycare, paid all the fuckin' rent
I know you wanna run the world, but first try running thisHook:
Stop fucking with me woman (3x)
Stop fucking with me if you ain't fuckin' with meStop fucking with me woman (3x)
Stop fucking with me if you ain't fuckin' with me, womanYou used to be so sweet
Now you act all bitter
and just so I don't hear that shit
I drown my liver in this liquorUsed to be like this man
Used to be my best friend
Now all you do is judge me
and scream out fuck meBut don't fuck me
Oh hell to the nah
Now I'm all up in the club
Now I'm up in the mall
Now you in my cell phone screaming, "who's this bitch?!"
She's just a friend, yeah that's it
and now you wanna trip?
Ain't that some shit
Yesterday you didnt give a fuck
Now you asking where I been
and now you hating on every girl that walk by
Talking 'bout where she think she going in that outfitYou don't even love me
She love the competition
Every man out there I hope you listenin'Can I be honest?
Can I be mothafuckin honest?Hook:
Stop fucking with me woman (3x)
Stop fucking with me if you ain't fuckin' with meStop fucking with me woman (3x)
Stop fucking with me if you ain't fuckin' with me, womanIts nothing at home
So I'm searching for love
Tried to get through
but you don't give a fuck
She can't love me
When she don't love herselfFeels like I'm sleeping with somebody else
Now I'm seeing somebody else
Now I'm touching somebody else
Now I'm fucking somebody else
but go ahead and blame me if it helpsI'm just being honest
I know, I know, I know sometimes I'm wrong
but am I really the only one?
Real women know that I'm talking real shit
and you fake bitches I'm sure you sitting around all pistand my real niggas know that I'm talking real shit
and fake niggas can take notes or find a rope and choke, niggahones-ty.

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
The-Dream: Terius Youngdell Nash (born June 14, 1978 in Rockingham, North Carolina), better known by his stage name The-Dream, is is a Grammy Award winning American R&B singer-songwriter, producer and Executive Vice President of Island Def Jam Records. In 2007 he released his debut album Love/Hate which spawned three top 20 singles. In 2009 he released his second album, Love vs. Money , which reached #2 on the Billboard 200 and features guest appearances from artists such as Kanye West. In June 2010, his third album, Love King, was released. It peaked at #4 on the Billboard 200.
At the age of two he moved with his mother to Atlanta, Georgia where she raised him until her sudden death at the age of thirty-five. Afterwards, he was taken in by his grandfather, who was an avid music fan. It was through this relationship that he was introduced to many legendary artists that made up his grandfather's record collection. As soon as he heard the soulful sounds of Sam Cooke and Al Green, The-Dream was hooked. In the third grade he began his musical venture by enrolling in introductory trumpet classes at Grove Park Elementary School. He continued playing the trumpet through high school and later learned to play the drums and guitar.

In junior high and high school his musical influences extended toward such artists such as Timbaland , Missy Elliott, Aaliyah and Tupac Shakur. His talents continued to naturally develop and eventually lead The-Dream to begin singing, rapping and song writing.

In addition, he is an accomplished artist and has created many paintings and sculptures, some of which have been shown at various art galleries throughout Atlanta.

In 2001, The-Dream was introduced to Laney Stewart of Redzone Entertainment. Although their first meeting wasn't very successful, things fared better the second time around and Laney pulled him into his camp. The two immediately collaborated to write for the multi-platinum group B2K.

In early 2003, The-Dream was signed by Laney Stewart to a new publishing deal with Morningside Trail through a joint venture with peer music. Since then he has continued writing for other artists including the newest single "Me Against The Music" for Britney Spears. The-Dream recently worked on Jive artist Nivea's forthcoming sophomore effort (April 2005) including the hit single "Okay" featuring Lil' Jon and Youngbloodz.

In 2006, The-Dream was brought in by Tricky Stewart of Redzone to collaborate with various artists including Bayje (Atlantic), Dear Jane & J.Holiday (Capitol), and Brit & Alex (Interscope).

To kick off the New Year, The-Dream began 2007 with major success. With the help of Tricky Stewart, " Umbrella" was created and taken to several different labels with artists ranging from Britney Spears at Jive to Mary J. Blige and Akon. Yet, it was the genius of Karen Kwak that got the record into the hands of Def Jam Record's CEO, LA Reid. Def Jam flew The-Dream and Tricky to LA to record with Rihanna, where they also wrote "Breakin' Dishes," a song off Rihanna's latest release, Good Girl Gone Bad.

Despite his current success, The-Dream never stops dreaming. Look out for The-Dream's future collaborations with hot artists such as Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Karina Pasian, Young Joc, Rihanna, Jay-Z, Jazzy Phae, Keke Palmer, Gia, Tricky Stewart, Don Vito, Wynter Gordon, Shontelle, and Lucy Walsh.
