IT'S ALRIGHT
Too Short/UGK Lyrics

I love things about you (it's alright) you got it going on
I appreciate and admire certain aspects about you, and it's all good because you exude confidence and charisma.

I'm not in love and this is not a love song, but you've been down for so long
I want to make it clear that I don't have romantic feelings for you and this song is not a love song, but I acknowledge that you have been struggling for a while.

You should never be wrong, I know it's all my fault
You should never be at fault or suffer consequences, because I know that everything is my responsibility and mistake.

My mind been gone, I'm always on the chase
My thoughts are scattered and my focus is always on pursuing something new, rather than being content with what I have.

Lipstick on my face, when I get home
I have evidence of cheating on me, which is conveyed through the presence of another woman's lipstick on my face when I come home.

You gotta get on my case, cause I've been fuckin' up
You need to hold me accountable and criticize me, because I have been making mistakes and misbehaving.

Coming home smelling like her, I can't fuck it up
I don't want to ruin my current relationship by smelling like another woman, so I need to maintain appearances and be careful.

Call your mama tell her how it hurts, tell her
I want you to vent to your mother and express the pain and hurt that I have caused you, so that someone can hold me accountable and help us through this.

I'm a dog, but don't say that's all
I acknowledge that I have been unfaithful, but I don't want to be dismissed simply as a dog or a cheater.

I came in first place at the players ball, and now I got my skrill on
I won first place at the players ball, which is a celebration of my ability to attract and seduce women, and now I am wealthy and financially stable.

My new grill on, put you through some shit girl
I have a new grill, which is a status symbol that highlights my wealth and success, but I have also put you through some tough experiences and emotional turmoil.

But I know you're real strong, you say I never find a real one like you
I know that you're a strong and resilient person, and you claim that I will never find someone like you who will tolerate my behavior.

But I never take the time to feel like you, I put the game down
I have never invested the time or effort to understand and empathize with your feelings, and I need to take a step back from playing the game (of seducing and cheating on women).

The way it's suppose to be, don't be a punk ass bitch, just get open with me
This is how things should be, and you shouldn't be a weak or submissive person; instead, just communicate with me and be honest and vulnerable.

There's a very thin line between love and hate
There is a fine and indistinguishable boundary between the emotions of love and hate, where one can lead to the other in certain circumstances.

And there's a very thin line between a fuck and a date
Similarly, there is a fine and confusing boundary between a casual sexual encounter and a romantic date or relationship.

I want to hit, I ain't got time to get caught up over a girl and lose my grip
I want to have sex, but I don't have the time or desire to become attached to a girl and jeopardize my success and independence.

I'm screaming 'Steady pimp' you steady trying a change me
I'm yelling for adherence to the pimping lifestyle and culture, but you are constantly trying to reform and reform me.

Running that game your mama taught you, bitch that shit don't faze me
You are using your mother's tactics and teachings to manipulate and deceive me, but I am not phased or influenced by them.

Say bitch I'm Pimp see, I shall be seen again
I am reiterating my identity as a pimp, and asserting that I will continue to be recognized and influential in this lifestyle.

But all that shit your cousin told you has gone in the wind
I am dismissing any rumors or gossip that your cousin may have shared with you, and suggesting that it is unimportant or inconsequential.

Just cause I pimp my pen, you think you moving in
Because I am skilled at writing and creating music, you believe that you have a chance to become part of my life or career.

Like I'm a trick I'm a let you have half of everything I spend
Even though I am a pimp, I am not a fool or a pushover, and I will not let you take advantage of me or my money.

You talking week rent, I'm trying to whip a Benz
You are discussing minor financial issues like rent, but I am focused on larger goals like buying a Mercedes-Benz.

Flipping the club with pimps like Too Short, baby lady friends
I am frequently attending and enjoying nightclub experiences with other pimps and individuals like Too Short, who attract women.

Talking bout your sister saw me with a brand new bitch at the club
You are referencing your sister's observation or gossip about me being with a new woman at a nightclub.

Coming at me with high school shit, bitch you must be in love
You are confronting me with trivial issues or immature arguments, which suggests that you have become too invested or emotional in this situation.

Space Age, new faze, I done payed the price
I am describing a futuristic and innovative lifestyle or culture, which I have personally experienced and had to endure challenges or obstacles to obtain.

Hoping you ain't bout to rip my stable, she said I'm shift
I am hoping that you do not betray or damage my collection of women, but you have already displayed signs of disloyalty or wavering loyalty.

But bitch that's alright
Despite the problems and issues we are experiencing, I am still accepting and tolerant of your behavior and attitudes.

Baby you're hangin' on a rope, it's getting crucial like dope
You are in a difficult and precarious situation, which is escalating and becoming dangerous or critical like a drug addiction.

I can't cope, I guess the situation has lost all hope
I cannot handle or manage this situation anymore, and it seems that there is no prospect or possibility for improvement or redemption.

Cause you've obviously flipped your lid, but what's done is did
Because you have exhibited signs of insanity or irrational behavior, but there is nothing we can do to reverse or erase the past mistakes or actions.

I'm putting you up for sale for the highest bid
I am offering or selling you off to the highest bidder, as if you are a commodity or object to be bought or sold.

Or an ass from kid shit, you got me twist-ed
Either you are capable of childish or immature behavior, or you are causing me to feel confused and disoriented.

Little Bun won't be another statist-ic, this love affair went ballist-ic
I (Bun B) refuse to become another statistic in failed or tumultuous relationships, and our love affair has become chaotic and explosive.

Puttin' them messy ass hoes up in my mix like Bisquick
You (or others) are introducing and involving problematic or untrustworthy women into my life and relationships, like adding Bisquick (a mix) to my food.

And thinkin' you gonna leave Big Bun juiced like mystic
You believe that you can deceive or outsmart me, but I will not be fooled and will remain mysterious and powerful like a mystic.

Nigga believe me shit's thick, loves lost
Trust me, the situation is difficult and fraught with conflict and problems, and the love we had has been completely lost or destroyed.

nothing's gained but confusion about the pain
Despite all the problems and hurt, there is no progress or benefit, only more confusion and emotional turmoil.

You losing about the same, you can't tame, a wild animal
You are experiencing the same amount of pain and suffering as I am, because it is impossible to control or domesticate a wild and rebellious person.

Feeding lettece to a cannibal, make a grown man wear goranibals
Your actions are like feeding vegetables to a carnivorous animal, or forcing a mature adult to wear childish and ridiculous clothing.

And I can't handle, bullshit that's unnessessary
I cannot tolerate or deal with unnecessary drama or nonsense, and I need to separate myself from this situation.

You can't handle being with a G, I guess it's scary
You cannot handle or keep up with being with a gangsta or player, and it is intimidating or frightening for you.

It's the very thing that put us together separated us
Our love or attraction to gangsta or player lifestyles and culture brought us together, but now it is driving us apart and causing conflict.

Player hated us, and things will never be the way it was
The lifestyle and culture of hating or disrupting players and pimps has damaged our relationship irreparably, and nothing can return it back to how it was.

I hate to say it cause, but find another shoulder to cry on
I hate to say this, but you need to seek comfort or support from someone else, because I cannot provide it or do not want to.

Stop gettin' your lie on, baby it's alright
Stop lying or deceiving me (or yourself), and acknowledge that everything is alright and we need to move on or separate.

Ain't no love bitch (ha ha ha ha) Beeotch.
I am declaring that there is no love or affection in this situation or relationship, and using slang or humor to emphasize this.

Tell them motherfuckers at Jive to quit trippin'.
I am telling or requesting that the executives or staff at my record label (Jive Records) stop causing problems or creating drama.
