Grrrrrrrr... yo, I mean, we all men

We knew how this shit go, love one, fuck another

I mean, it is what it is, it is what it is, I mean

We knew what it was when we became a part of it

No sense in whining about it now, feel me, it's like



[Monica]

There's somethin on your mind, I can see right through you

I know your girl been treatin you wrong, she ain't no good for you

Why do you hold it inside? Boy you should let me know

I just wanna make it right, wanna be the one you can cry on



[DMX]

Baby, it's like, I love my wife

But we're goin through things, and I ain't goin home tonight

You got time for a nigga, or is he still with you?

Wanna meet at the same spot, or, should I come and get you?

Aiight, I be there at ten, be in the front

I been gettin what I need, so I'ma give you what you want

One-on-one, cause you know how to talk the dog

You walk the dog, and understand New York is hard, baby



[Monica] You ain't gotta go home tonight, you can stay right here with me

[DMX] I ain't goin nowhere, when you wake up I'ma be right here

[Monica] Don't you worry about a thing, you're here with me

[DMX] It's like I love my wife, but we goin through things and I ain't goin home tonight, aight?



[Monica]

It's kinda strange that when you call, she's never home

Now you're there, all alone, and you deserve so much more

Baby, I can treat you better than she can

It doesn't make sense to keep on lovin, and keep on trustin

When in return, all you get is nothin



[DMX]

Damn, got me fucked up, and I'm feelin it more

Never had a mis-tress, this stress be-fore

Aw, come on ma, like it ain't that deep

Like ain't no love there, like I don't hate that I gotta creep

We go to sleep in each other's arms

And I feel like this is where I belong

If lovin you is right then I ain't wrong

But it's the same old song, wife and fam

Gotta be a father and husband, but I'm still your man, baby



[Monica] You ain't gotta go home tonight, you can stay right here with me

[DMX] I ain't goin nowhere, when you wake up I'ma be right here

[Monica] Don't you worry about a thing, you're here with me

[DMX] It's like I love my wife, but we goin through things and I ain't goin home tonight, aight?



[Monica]

The situation is gettin critical, I watch so many tears fall

I know she's not what you want, so why you keep on holdin on?

When I'm right here, all you need to do is call

Don't be afraid, cause she won't know at all



[Monica] You ain't gotta go home tonight, you can stay right here with me

[DMX] I ain't goin nowhere, when you wake up I'ma be right here

[Monica] Don't you worry about a thing, you're here with me

[DMX] It's like I love my wife, but we goin through things and I ain't goin home tonight, aight?

[Monica] You ain't gotta go home tonight, you can stay right here with me

[DMX] I ain't goin nowhere, when you wake up I'ma be right here

[Monica] Don't you worry about a thing, you're here with me

[DMX] It's like I love my wife, but we goin through things and I ain't goin home tonight, aight?

[Monica] Ooohh, stay wïth me...
