Out For Paper
J. Smooth Lyrics

Hey nigga check this here
Addressing someone with intent to specifically call attention to oneself or situation

I'm about to give it to you real clear
Communicating with honesty and without ambiguity

E-V-E ain't about the bullshit
Refusing to engage in meaningless and/or dramatic activities

Game playin, want to be a third nigga do it elsewhere
Refusing to participate in or condone infidelity

Oh so what you tryna make me bitter
Questioning someone's intentions that may lead to negative feelings or consequences

Shit better act right
Demanding respectful and responsible behavior

I'll pull another nigga
Expressing willingness to find another partner

I don't want no little boy
Rejecting those who exhibit immaturity or a lack of responsibility

I ain't no babysitter
Refusing to assume the role of caretaker for another person's problems or issues

You want a chicken?
Asking if someone wishes to engage in a power dynamic or relationship where one party has the upper hand

Go ahead make her lay your eggs nigga
Encouraging someone to pursue a subservient partner who will fulfill their desires

Cause I ain't with that
Rejecting the idea of being involved in that type of relationship

I'll leave you lonely, crying
Threatening to end the relationship and cause emotional distress

And I leave can't get none of your gifts back
Indicating that there will be no remorse or generosity after the relationship ends

Take your car
Claiming ownership of shared possessions or gifts received during the relationship

Have you calling cabbies just to get home
Causing inconvenience and discomfort as a show of power

And when you all alone
Asserting that the person will be without companionship or support after the relationship ends

Don't want to hear you ring my phone
Refusing to communicate or engage in any continued relationship

That's right, baby act right
Affirming that respectful and responsible behavior is necessary

Got no time for the bullshit
Refusing to engage in drama or meaningless activities

Cause I'mma have my niggas running at your door to bust
Threatening violence or retribution

Don't try to duck, you and that bitch with a full clip
Warning that there will be no escape or mercy

Come on
Challenging someone to test the consequences of their actions

One night back in July
Recalling a specific event that occurred in the past

She was standing outside the club
Describing a person's location

So fly she caught my eye
Indicating that the person was attractive and worthy of attention

But you know that was not enough
Acknowledging that physical attraction was not the only requirement for a positive relationship

I tried to get closer to shorty
Making an effort to be more intimate or familiar with the person

But wifey had peeped my game
Indicating that the person's significant other was aware of their intentions

She looked at her funny
Expressing disapproval or suspicion towards someone

They had words
Describing an argument or conflict between two people

And I was the one to blame
Taking responsibility for one's actions and the resulting consequences

It started out one day
Recalling the beginning of a relationship or event

Coming on a rainy day
Describing a specific weather condition during that time

The sooner I do it, she never even stood a chance
Indicating that one was successful in a situation where another party had no opportunity to prevent it

More will come, but there's only one champion
Acknowledging that success and competition will continue, but there can only be one ultimate winner

She was out for the count again
Describing someone who was defeated or unable to continue in a struggle

It took about one hour later
Recalling a specific amount of time that passed

I started to make my move
Indicating that one began to act on their intentions

Out on the dancefloor
Describing a location where an action took place

When wifey returned she was through from powder room
Describing the return of a person after an absence in the bathroom

She saw me, freaking the same way I do
Noticing that someone was acting in a similar way as oneself

And maybe if I would have played the right cards
Considering that different actions may have led to a different outcome

She wouldn't be hurt
Suggesting that someone's feelings or emotions could have been spared

I'm sorry for doing you wrong
Apologizing for causing harm or wrongdoing

I know that I have been a fool for too long
Acknowledging that one has acted foolishly for an extended period of time

But if you choose to go away
Recognizing that another person may decide to end the relationship

Girl I feel that you should know
Communicating important information to another person

I really want to change
Expressing the desire to improve oneself or the situation

I changed, girl I have changed
Asserting that one has made significant changes for the better

Hey what I look like, a child?
Challenging someone's assertion of control or authority

This ain't no fuckin' smile
Clarifying or correcting a misunderstanding

It's a frown, Ruff Ryde show you how I get down
Affirming a serious or assertive attitude

Won't take long, it'll be a quick pound
Promising swift and aggressive action

Got a bob and weave, and a hitting sound
Asserting physical prowess and ability

Embarrassing have you running around crying
Threatening to cause public humiliation and emotional distress

(Get her off me, somebody help me now)
Mimicking someone who may cry for help or assistance

Huh, too late ma, you gotta get your shit split
Declaring that it is too late to avoid harm or violence

Now that's for acting dumb like you ain't know who you was wit'
Punishing someone for not acknowledging or respecting one's status or capabilities

You see this are around my neck
Reminding someone of one's wealth or status symbol

I don't allow disrespect
Asserting authority and boundaries for what one will tolerate

Bitch you must've really thought I slept with the wrong one
Expressing surprise or offense at the idea that someone would cross or betray them

See me drinkin' think I'm touched
Misinterpreting one's behavior or demeanor

Next time you see this thug
Warning that an encounter with the artist could lead to violence or conflict

You gonna be walking on a crutch
Threatening to cause physical harm or injury

And for you sorry nigga
Addressing someone who has acted unwisely or disrespectfully

You and that bitch can be together
Suggesting that a person and their partner are not welcome or wanted

Forever sleeping in the same ditch
Imagining a violent or deadly end for someone and their partner

That's it, I'mma leave, you ain't doing me right
Asserting one's right to leave a relationship that does not meet their needs

Play fair, or I'mma play dirty out your life, huh
Warning that if fairness and respect are not maintained, the artist will resort to harsh or violent methods
