[Kool Keith:]

Yeah, that's real (I've got all the candles lit)

Kool Keith baby, from the Bronx, New York

You know I miss you right?

I really care about you, more than any other woman in the world

This is what I really like to do

(I've got all the candles lit)



Girl I'ma hold you, let you know

I'm the one... to give you the delicate fun

What is it like to look under the candlelight wit'cha hair done?

Baby you outta sight, jeans are tight

He'll hit you in the eye I'm sorry to hear that

You and your man had a fight, hold your head up don't cry

Everything's gonna be alright, you said it was violent and domestic

The tenth time you got him arrested

You used to look better than that, your black eyes got affected

The cops by your apartment neighbors hear you in the argument

You think it's you and nobody, know where your lover went

Ever since, he broke your arm

Your right rib cage, girl you're somethin else

Let me make a cup of coffee

Here's some hot chocolate, off the shelf

You're nervous, stop shakin, grab ahold of yourself

Everytime you call me you wanna kill yourself

Overtakin prescription, this ain't no science fiction

Girl wanna kill herself



[Chorus: Keith singing]

The girl wanna kill herself [x2]



[Kool Keith:]

Girl wanna kill herself (I've got all the candles lit) brain by the window

Your body hurt with pain you hide from the police department

Callin us every night when he sleep

Let a man in front of your kids beat you up on the brain

He drove you to drugs like a battered woman takin novacaine

Some guy, that keep you in the basement like a dog on a chain

Scared you to death, now you look at everybody strange

Detectives put they head down, it's like workin with a puppet on a string

Your girlfriends complain, 'Tisha say you got blood all over your thangs

You handlin what you did, you slept with him for diamond rings

Circles around your eyes, look like pies

You wanna overdose, stop tellin us lies

The girl wanna kill herself



[Outro:]

The girl wanna kill herself (I've got all the candles lit)

Girl wanna kill herself

Girl wanna kill herself, girl wanna kill herself

The girl wanna kill herself (I've got all the candles lit)

Baby don't kill yourself, cause I need you

I know you've been goin crazy

I'ma be there for you, you know I'm your psychiatrist

I just don't want you to kill yourself

Cause you hurt me when you do that

The girl wanna kill herself

She wants to kill herself

The girl wanna kill herselllllllllf

Don't kill yourself... [fades]
