JEALOUSY
Roy Woods Lyrics

This time's not done, but I'm drinking now
Despite the fact that my work is not yet completed, I am drinking alcohol at present.

Unless they find ya', intertwine with me
The only way I'll be linked with someone is if they discover my talent and join forces with me.

She don't like what's she's forced to see
The woman I'm associated with is not happy with what she experiences.

But I could've got started on her
I could have a relationship with her if I wanted.

She knows what I'm putting on her
She understands what I'm doing to her.

Girl I stay high, never sober
I am always under the influence and never sober.

You could've stayed but it's over
Despite the possibility that you could have remained, it is now too late to do so.

'Cause you're so jealous of me
You are envious of me.

Oh you're so jealous of me, jealousy over me
You are extremely envious of me and it is affecting you.

(Why you so jealous) over me (why you so jealous?)
Why are you envious of me?

(Why you catchin' feelings) jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
Why are you developing an emotional attachment to me?

(Why you so jealous) over me (why you so jealous?)
Why are you so envious of me?

(Why you catchin' feelings) jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
Why are you becoming emotionally attached to me?

(Why you so jealous) over me (why you so jealous?)
Why are you envious of me?

(Why you catchin' feelings) jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
Why are you developing an emotional connection to me?

(Why you so jealous) over me (why you so jealous?)
Why are you so envious of me?

Jealousy over me, jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
You are becoming increasingly envious of me and it is affecting your emotions.

I've been runnin' the stage, you cannot tell me I am fake
I have been performing on stage regularly, and you cannot accuse me of being inauthentic.

My main girl still the realest shit, Love me when they say I ain't shit
The woman I'm committed to is the most genuine thing in my life, and she continues to love me even when others do not.

She gon' spend her cash when I'm broke
Even when I'm out of money, my significant other is prepared to use her own money to support me.

She gon' whip through the 6ix and more
She is prepared to travel with me through Toronto and beyond.

'Member the days we ain't had no home?
Do you remember when we did not have a home to live in?

Oh mom, I gotta show these niggas what's good
I must demonstrate to everyone what is outstanding, Mom.

Mama, there ain't no bringin' me down
Mom, there is no way to discourage me and ruin my excitement.

Soldier in this bitch, I'm gunnin' them down
I am a hardened fighter in this environment, and I will defeat anyone who comes at me.

King with no crown, they still gon' look at me now
Even though I am not technically the king, people still look up to me and admire me for what I do.

I been too drunk, I'm way too fucked
I am extremely inebriated and beyond intoxicated.

How you think I'm singing this shit my dog
How do you believe I can sing this song, my friend?

I am not normal, you do not know what I'm on
I am not common or typical, and you do not comprehend what I'm up to.

Money callin' up in the party, you know
Everyone knows that money talks and is calling out during the party.

I been turnt up in the club in the max
I have been wild in the club to the fullest extent.

This is my life nigga don't you forget
Don't forget, this is my life and nobody else's.
