What U Wanna Do
Soulja Slim & B.G. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes I think what happened to us
Oh maybe I did, I did something to ya
I wish you would
Say what you wanna
Say what you need to feel better
Say what's on your heart
Say what's on your mind
Am I fake or what? (fake fake)
Do I play too much?
Is it a money thing?
Don't I make enough? (make enough)
Maybe we weren't meant to be
You was always hating me (hating, if it's up then it's up)
I just wanna know was I loyal enough to ya?
Or did I do something to lose your trust?
(Trust)
You came over every weekend back in the day
But over time there were decisions I made
(I was going through it and I pushed you away)
I can understand if we're not close no more
But I just wish there was closure
For you to
Say what you wanna
Say what you need to feel better
Say what's on your heart (on your heart)
Say what's on your mind (on your mind baby)
Say what you wanna
Say what you need to feel better
Say what's on your heart
Say what's on your mind
I guess I wasn't really about that action baby
I had nothing to say
I didn't want make things worse
So I walked away
That's just something I've been dealing with
My whole life
Never learning how to really
Speak my mind, now
Look at me and how
I don't have you around
Cause of what had went down down
That shit eats me up inside
And it keeps me up at night
Replaying conversations in my head
Thinking of the things that I should've said
Tell me if it's something that I'm not reciprocating
Tell me if it's something that I could've done differently
Tell me if it's something that I did when I was young
I'm grown enough now to admit my wrongs
Should I offer you to stay the night?
Did you want a drink or
Did you want to come inside?
Cause I just want to make it right
I miss you being by my side
Say what you wanna
Say what you need to feel better
Say what's on your heart (on your heart)
Say what's on your mind (on your mind baby)
Say what you wanna
Say what you need to feel better




Say what's on your heart
Say what's on your mind
