"Playing the Game"


Its hard to play the game like you do Its like trying to learn ancient voodoo Y'all dudes can pretty much do what you want But can we? I'm not even gonna start We should have the right to do as we please, Dudes do it, y'all all a big ass tease Saying you love us when you don't Trying to coax us into giving you some throat Is that all you want us women for? A quick nutt and nothing more? You might not need us right now But when in need to ask you wont know how Cus of all the hurt you giving us then it will be too late there will be no trust One day you all will finally learn That trust is something everyone must earn Then you will grow into a man But by then you won't be able to stand To look a woman in the face Without struggling to talk and in need of space Did y'all ever wonder how we feel instead of playing keep it real Let us know what it is you do Or why we should put up wit dudes like you To be completely honest there's no changing the fact that us woman all started playing The same games you said we couldn't And now we got all y'all dudes footing it........
