You & Me
Joe Feat Fabolous Lyrics

I think we all try to be good people.
We all attempt to be decent human beings.

But it's just things you go through that make you who you are
However, it is the experiences you encounter in life that shape your character.

Nigga this is how you made me (This is how you, this is how you, this is how you made me)
You are the reason I am who I am today.

Hol' up
Wait a minute.

Last time I trust a nigga he betrayed me
The last time I trusted someone, they backstabbed me.

Last time I trust a bitch, she played me
The last time I trusted a woman, she deceived me.

Pardon me if I've been on one lately
Forgive me if I have been acting out of character lately.

Yeah, this is how you niggas made me
You all contributed to who I am today.

Thinking 'bout my old girlfriend, lil mama played me
Reflecting on my past relationship where my ex-girlfriend deceived me.

Left me for some light skin cat with a Mercedes
She left me for a man with lighter skin that drove a luxury car.

Back then I didn't have no whip, had to upgrade me
At the time, I didn't have a car, I had to improve myself.

Now I got those white boy M's, she ain't as shady
Now with my financial success, she isn't as deceitful towards me.

Well karma is a bitch baby
Karma can be tough to deal with.

Oh you wasn't tryna chill hoes? (Remember that?)
You didn't want to be faithful to your significant other? (Do you remember that?)

One day karma kicks you in the ass
Someday the consequences of your actions may come to haunt you.

And I hope she wearing steel toes
I hope she is prepared for the pain she is about to feel.

Tried to have my head all twisted, won't let 'em braid me
Attempted to manipulate and control me, but I won't allow it.

I just gotta be who I be, don't let it jade me
I have to stay true to myself and not let negative experiences change me.

Life gave me lemons, it's time to lemonade me
Life has thrown some sour experiences my way, but it's time to turn them into something sweet.

Music to my ears, the lies just serenade me
Deceitful words directed towards me just entertain me.

And what they done to me, I done it to the next
What others have done to me, I may have done to someone else.

What goes around is coming to you next
The consequences of one's actions will eventually catch up to them.

I dress like I'ma run into my ex
I dress nicely as if I may bump into my ex-girlfriend.

And every time I run into her flex, uh
And every time I see her, I do it with confidence.

Your boy tried to fuck me over, thought we was homies
Your friend attempted to deceive me, thought we were close.

Guess he was a h-o-e when I say hoemies
I suppose he acted like a prostitute, regarding our friendship.

Niggas get some money then act like they don't know me
Men obtain wealth and then act as if they don't recognize me.

Got a new phone, cut off the old phonies
Purchased a new phone and removed the fake friends from my contacts.

'Cause they ain't never pick up for me when I used to call
Because they never answered my calls when I needed them.

And they ain't never pass the 'roc when they used to ball
And they never shared their alcohol when we would party.

And they ain't never help me up when I used to fall
And they never lent a hand when I was in need.

Kept tryna do it big, fuck gettin' used to small
I focused on success and growth, disregarding the smaller things.

After the success it's like yes they used to know me
After having success, they claim to have known me all along.

Now it ain't no 'Neneh nigga, I got Naomi
Now I have made significant strides and don't want to be associated with my past.

Shoulda paid attention before you haters owe me
They should have paid attention before they began disliking me.

Since you down there on your knees, go ahead and blow me
Since you are crawling on the ground, why don't you give me oral sex.

Suck a dick, tell a hater suck a dick
Go suck a penis, tell those who dislike me to do the same.

Just a hood nigga that hit a fuckin' lick
I am just a neighborhood guy that made it big.

I keep my head up and I ain't never duckin' shit
I remain confident and never avoid anything.

I'm self made, I don't owe a mother fucker shit, boi
I created my own success and do not owe anyone anything.
