A native of LaGrange, Georgia, a young Andy Mathis was introduced to hip hop music by a neighbor (his closest at a half mile away) who received mixed tapes mailed from New York City. He began recording with Lil Devil in a group called One Card Shi in 1996, but the partnership did not last. A subsequent release saw some success in Georgia, and the album Dark Days, Bright Nights caught the attention of Jimmy Iovine of Interscope Records. He signed to Interscope after a bidding war and began working with record producers Timbaland and Organized Noize. The major-label version of Dark Days, Bright Nights, which now included five collaborations with Timbaland and two with Organized Noize, debuted at #3 on the Billboard Music Charts. In late 2003, he returned with his sophomore album, Deliverance.
He is currently signed to OutKast's Purple Ribbon Label, distributed through Virgin Records.
Bubba is also related to Haystak.

Bubba Sparxxx Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wanna runaway
Cuz baby youâ??re my everything
I donâ??t need this
All I need is us
C'mon girl, lets put it in the wind
I care none, bout no one
They had a chance
But now the dance is over
And for sure itâ??s highway time
Let the top down
Cant stop now
Explain the past baby I ainâ??t tryin'
I ainâ??t lyin'
When I'm sayin' we done came of age
Or things dun change
Time to spread our wings
Fly to better things
Pack your suitcase todayâ??s the day
Donâ??t tell yo mama, donâ??t tell yo sister
It will only complicate the issue
We'll mail 'em a box of tissues
The only one that loves you is right here with you
Girl donâ??t ever look back
Our destiny awaits us
In what ever place we park the brakes
I work my hands to the bone
If thatâ??s what it takes ta
Give us everything
Our folks never had
I'm prepared for that
It may take a while
But Ima make you smile
Forever
I said a prayer for Dad
And, I know heâ??s listenin'
At least to this one
If he never heard none of the others
This is me and you
And Ima see it through
From this highway to under the covers
Baby
(ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh oooooo)
I wanna runaway, (I wanna runaway) with you (I wanna runaway)
I wanna runaway with you
Cuz baby youâ??re my everything
I wanna runaway, (I wanna runaway) with you (I wanna runaway)
I wanna runaway
Cuz baby youâ??re my everything
We got off the exit at Waco
Frankie J was on the radio
I asked her was she afraid to go
All the way with this
She delayed a no
I said baby I just need to know
If you ainâ??t down
We can turn around
Your happiness is my happiness
And thatâ??s the only thing thatâ??s concernin' me now
Just hurt me now
She said would you please jus let me talk for once
then all at once she went into how
Sheâ??d been tryin' to prevent this all for months
Not at all because she didnâ??t love me
And only me
Itâ??s just that she
Had withheld one vital piece of info
She looked up at me
Wit both eyes full of tears
She said you remember that day at the clinic?
I went in wit the doctor and I told you I did it
I wasnâ??t able to go through wit it
No you didnâ??t
How could you?
Wait minute that makes you what?
Three months and some change
Well baby doll that jus ainâ??t enough
To derail us
Cuz see that just means thereâ??s three of us
But answer this, at what point did you think this topic should be discussed?
I donâ??t know whether to cry or smile
But somehow I'm doin' both
But this changes nothin'
I got two babies and I solemnly swear to be true to both
Baby
(ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh oooooo)
I wanna runaway, (I wanna runaway) with you (I wanna runaway)
I wanna runaway with you
Cuz baby youâ??re my everything
I wanna runaway, (I wanna runaway) with you (I wanna runaway)
I wanna runaway
Cuz baby youâ??re my everything
I wanna run, wanna runaway, thereâ??s nothing they can do er say to make us stay
I wanna run, wanna runaway, thereâ??s nothing they can do thereâ??s nothin' they can say
I wanna run, wanna runaway, ahhhh oooh ohhh
I wanna run, wanna runaway I want to runaway
Baby
I wanna runaway, (I wanna runaway) with you (I wanna runaway)
I wanna runaway with you
Cuz baby youâ??re my everything

I wanna runaway, (I wanna runaway) with you (I wanna runaway)
I want to leave everything behind and escape with you
I wanna runaway
I want to run away from my current life and start anew
Cuz baby you're my everything
You are the most important thing in my life
I don't need this
I don't need the current situation I'm in
All I need is us
All I need is our relationship
C'mon girl, lets put it in the wind
Let's hit the road and leave it all behind
I care none, bout no one
I don't care about anyone else but us
If they loved us they shoulda did it when
If people cared about us, they should have shown it earlier
They had a chance
They had the opportunity to show they cared
But now the dance is over
It's too late for anyone else to join us now
And for sure it's highway time
We're hitting the road for sure
Let the top down
Let's put the car roof down
Cant stop now
We can't turn back now
Explain the past baby I ain't tryin'
Let's not focus on the past, I'm not trying to dwell on it
I ain't lyin'
I'm not lying
When I'm sayin' we done came of age
We have matured and it's time for us to move on
Or things dun change
Things have changed
Time to spread our wings
It's time for us to explore and start over
Fly to better things
We will find better opportunities
Pack your suitcase today's the day
Get ready to leave, today is the day
Don't tell yo mama, don't tell yo sister
Let's not involve other people in our decision to leave
It will only complicate the issue
It will only make things more complicated
We'll mail 'em a box of tissues
We'll send them a box of tissues to console them
The only one that loves you is right here with you
I'm the only one who truly loves you and I'm here with you
Girl don't ever look back
Don't look back at the past, let's focus on the future
Our destiny awaits us
Our future is waiting for us
In what ever place we park the brakes
Wherever we decide to stop, our destiny is there
I work my hands to the bone
I work hard to provide for us
If that's what it takes ta
If that's what it takes to make you happy
Give us everything
To provide us with everything we need
Our folks never had
Things our parents never had
I'm prepared for that
I'm ready to work hard to give us a better life
It may take a while
It might take some time
But Ima make you smile
I will make you happy
Forever
Forever and always
I said a prayer for Dad
I prayed for my father
And, I know he's listenin'
And I know he's listening from above
At least to this one
At least he can hear this prayer
If he never heard none of the others
If he never heard any other prayers
This is me and you
This is just about us
And Ima see it through
I will see this through to the end
From this highway to under the covers
From this journey to the intimacy of our home
Baby (ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh oooooo)
My dear
I wanna runaway with you
I want to escape with you
We got off the exit at Waco
We took the Waco exit
Frankie J was on the radio
We were listening to Frankie J on the radio
I asked her was she afraid to go
I asked her if she was scared to leave
All the way with this
Leave everything behind and start over with me
She delayed a no
She hesitated to answer no
I said baby I just need to know
I just need to know if you want to leave with me
If you ain't down
If you're not willing to leave with me
We can turn around
We can go back home
Your happiness is my happiness
Whatever makes you happy matters to me
And that's the only thing that's concernin' me now
All that matters to me now is your happiness
Just hurt me now
Tell me the truth, even if it hurts
She said would you please jus let me talk for once
She asked me to let her speak for once
Then all at once she went into how
Then she finally told me everything
She'd been tryin' to prevent this all for months
She's been trying to stop me from leaving for months
Not at all because she didn't love me
It wasn't because she didn't love me
And only me
And me only
It's just that she
It's just that she had a secret to share
Had withheld one vital piece of info
She had kept one important information from me
She looked up at me
She looked at me
Wit both eyes full of tears
With tears streaming down her face
She said you remember that day at the clinic?
Do you remember the day we went to the clinic?
I went in wit the doctor and I told you I did it
I went in with the doctor and told you I had an abortion
I wasn't able to go through wit it
I wasn't able to go through with the abortion
No you didn't
No, you didn't tell me
How could you?
How could you keep such a big secret?
Wait minute that makes you what?
Wait, that means you're pregnant?
Three months and some change
You're three months pregnant
Well baby doll that jus ain't enough
But that's not going to change anything
To derail us
To stop us from leaving
Cuz see that just means there's three of us
That just means that there will be three of us on the journey
But answer this, at what point did you think this topic should be discussed?
When did you plan on telling me about the pregnancy?
I don't know whether to cry or smile
I'm not sure how to react
But somehow I'm doin' both
But I'm feeling both emotions at the same time
But this changes nothin'
But this doesn't change our plan to leave
I got two babies and I solemnly swear to be true to both
I have two babies now, and I promise to take care of both of you
I wanna run, wanna runaway, there's nothing they can do er say to make us stay
I want to run away with you, and no one can stop us from leaving
I wanna run, wanna runaway, ahhhh oooh ohhh
I want to run away with you
I wanna run, wanna runaway, there's nothing they can do there's nothin' they can say
I want to escape with you, and nothing anyone says or does can stop us
I wanna run, wanna runaway
I want to leave everything behind and start anew
