Line by Line Meaning

Nah baby, I'm not gonna be able to do it
I'm not interested in what you're asking me to do

I tried to take you serious before, and you blew it
I gave you a chance before, but you messed it up

You figured you was slick, dissin me for the next man
You thought you were clever for disrespecting me in front of another guy

But when you heard he had a wife, it ruined your plans
Your plan to get with the other guy was ruined when you found out he was married

Now you want to come back and act like it's all that
You want to come back and act like everything is okay

But I ain't tryin to hear it, cause you sound real wack
I'm not interested in what you have to say because it's uninteresting

You got it over the first time, but that was the last time
You had your chance with me, but that's not happening again

I'll never make the same mistake again in a lifetime
I learned my lesson and won't make the same mistake twice

You hooker, no way, no how, you're history
You're a worthless person to me and I want nothing to do with you

So let's keep it real, cause this ain't no mystery
Let's be honest with each other, because there's no need to play games

You had it like a queen, livin lovely and lost me
You had a good thing going with me, but you messed it up

Your props are at all-time low and you crossed me
Your reputation is ruined, and you betrayed my trust

I used to treat you good, take you shoppin and feed ya
I used to do nice things for you like take you shopping and feed you

But now I'm doin fine, and girlfriend, I don't need ya
I'm doing well on my own and I don't need you in my life

For you to even ask me that, you must be stupid
You must be foolish to even ask me for what you want

(Can you do it?)
Question is repeated

I'm not gonna be able to do it (8x)
I'm not going to comply with what you're asking me to do (repeated)

I'm on a mission, and I need me a new girl
I'm looking for a new girlfriend

My last girl fronted fakin moves with Earl
My ex-girlfriend pretended to be interested in Earl

But that was in the past, finsihed, over, and done with
That's all in the past, and I'm not dwelling on it

Besides, I know this hottie, and she's on my tip
I've got my eye on a new girl who's interested in me

She told me I could call her when I wanted to check her
She's given me her number and told me to call her if I'm interested

And all I had to do to knock her down was respect her
All I had to do to win her over was show her respect

To think about it, gee, that would be cool
It would be great to be with someone who's independent and successful

To have a girl that's independent, with a job and school
To have a girlfriend who's self-sufficient and focused on her career

So we took it slow, then we started to grow
We started off slow and then our relationship began to develop

Without a worry in the world, goin right with the flow
We were enjoying our time together and not stressing about the future

Until she cracked my head when she asked me to marry her
Things were going well until she surprised me by asking me to get married

And move into a crib in some suburbian area
She wanted us to move to a suburban area, which I wasn't interested in

I knew that this was just too good to be true
I suspected that our relationship was too perfect and wouldn't last

And what you're askin me to do, girl, I cannot do
I'm not able to do what you're asking me to do

You told me, 'No committments', and you best stick to it
You said you didn't want any commitments, so you should keep your word

Oh baby, I'm not gonna be able to do it
I'm not going to do what you're asking me to do

(Can you do it?)
Question is repeated

Now I'm makin money, and it's good to be single
I'm making money now and I'm enjoying being single

To mingle with the ladies while their earrings jingle
I'm enjoying socializing with women when they wear their sparkly earrings

And that's the way it is, cause that's the way that I want it
I'm living my life the way I want to

When I see a pretty mommy lookin good, I'm on it
When I see an attractive woman, I'm interested in getting to know her

Checkin out her profile to see if she got style
I'm interested in a woman's personality and sense of style

Cause if she ain't a 10, she ain't worth my while
If she's not my ideal type of woman, I'm not interested

I'm all about stickin and movin with the quickness
I'm focused on moving quickly through relationships and not wasting time

Forget the foreplay, and let's get down to business
I'm not interested in playing games, let's get down to what really matters

(Yeah, is it good? Is it good, baby?) Damn, my jim hat broke!
Sorry, my condom broke

But still I kept strokin till her boots were smokin
I kept having sex with her until she was exhausted

And left her on the bed with her legs wide open
I finished having sex with her and left her lying on the bed

Tryin to kick it to me like she was my girl
She tried to act like we were in a serious relationship

But yo, I had to tell her, ain't no way in the world
I had to let her know that we weren't really together

Maybe it's the way I hit that thing that souped it
Maybe it was because I was really good in bed that made her think we were more serious than we were

But no, I'm not gonna be able to do it
But, I'm not going to be able to commit to her or anyone else

(Can you do it?)
