Intro: but all i wanna know baby is, if what we had was good... then pick up the bloody phone, damn.
(yeah, yeah ma baby, mmmm)
I keep your picture by my bed (mmm) An′ I still remember everything you said (mmm, oh yea) I always thought our love was so right I guess I was wrong (mmm yea) Always thought that you′d be by my side papa, now you′re gone (i know im not try′n hear that shit)
All I wanna know is baby If what we had was good How come you don′t call me Anymore? (ohh, mmmm)
Still like a fire, on a rainy night Still like it that the way you′re holding me tight Everybody said, everybody said that we should never part (mm, oh no) Tell me baby baby baby why, why you wanna go and break my heart? (yeahh)
All I wanna know is baby If what we had was good How come you don′t call me (call me) Anymore?
Sometimes it feels like, I′m gonna die If you don′t call me papa, ooh you got to try Gonna get down on my knees hop′n you′ll please, please (ohhhh) Won′t you call me sometime Papa?
Why on earth can′t you just pick up the phone? you know I don′t like to be alone how come you don′t call me how come you don′t call me
How come you always wind up changing your direction? How come you always end up dancing through the room? How come you always never wanna use protection? How come you′re floating like a helium balloon?
I can′t keep up You′re moving too fast I got to know Is this gonna last? Coz i can′t tell whether your up or you′re down This whole situation is spinning me round Spinning me round Spinning me round
How come you always end up changing your intentions? How come you always wind up blowing hot and cold? One minute honest then your full of false pretension Head in the clouds but still your desperate to control, to control
I just don′t know what to believe You build me up then you bring me down on my knees You say you want me Then your up and your gone I got to know just where your comming from Coming from, where your coming from
I got to know before its over One way or the other If your stringing me along
I can′t keep up You′re moving too fast I got to know Is this gonna last? I can′t tell whether your up or you′re down This whole situation is spinning me round Spinning me round Spinning me round
How come? How come?
How come you always wind up changing your direction?
i′m not in love with you i told myself a thousand times nothing to save or lose still i can′t get you out of my mind why can′t i break away
i get lonely when you look at me stuck in the middle where nothing is real we were over before we began so if you′re not the one how come i get lonely when you′re not around i′m in without you i feel alone so if you′re not the one how come you′re the one how come you′re the one
this ship is going down but i′m still holding on guess i should know by now you could do anything i′m to far gone why can′t i break away
i get lonely when you look at me stuck in the middle where nothing is real we were over before we began so if you′re not the one how come i get lonely when you′re not around i′m in without you i feel alone so if you′re not the one how come you′re the one how come you′re the one
the faster i run from you the closer i get to you we′re lost in a million ways but it still feels like home
i get lonely when you look at me stuck in the middle where nothing is real we were over before we began so if you′re not the one how come i get lonely when you′re not around i′m in without you i feel alone so if you′re not the one how come you′re the one how come you′re the one
How Come.. we dont even talk no more And you dont even call no more We dont barely keep in touch at all and I dont even feel the same love when we hug no more And I heard it through the grapevine.. We even Beefin Now After all the years we been down.. aint no way no how This bullsh** cant be true We Family.. aint a damn thing changed.. unless its you!
We were so young So full of life and vibrance side by side, wherever you was riding, I went So close, almost on some bonnie and clyde sh** When Ronnie died you was right by my side with a shoulder to cry on and tissue to wipe my eyes and a bucket to catch ever tear I cried inside it. You even had the same type of childhood I did.. sometimes I just wanna know why is it that you succaim to yours and mine I survived it. You ran the streets, I 9 to 5ed it we grew up, grew apart as time went by us.. and I blew up to both yours and mines surprises. Now I feel a vibe I just cant describe it much as your pride tries to hide it. your cold your touch is just like ice. And your eyes is a look of resentment. .I can sense it and I dont like it.
How Come.. we dont even talk no more And you dont even call no more We dont barely keep in touch at all and I dont even feel the same love when we hug no more And I heard it through the grapevine.. We even Beefin Now After all the years we been down.. aint no way no how This bullsh** cant be true We Family.. aint a damn thing changed.. unless its you!

It was my dream at first to be off spitting a verse on my own album with a deal but sh** got worse fore I came out I woulda killed a nigga first for I let him disrespect me, or check me over some worthless bi*** that I wasnt with I woulda hit it and quit but you were fitting to talk with her and tell her she was the sh** I told you dont get involved with her you would smoke in the car with her coming outta the bar with her stumbling half drunk like you were husband and wife or somethin but me catching her f***in other niggas musta hurt your pride or something cause you were openin your mouth to people like you wanted with me. when all I tried to do was show that your bi*** was shifty. And every sister, fares and all the sh** that I produced you acting like I aint your man and lying like she cant be loose. But I am really your friend, I′m just trying to tell ya the truth. Dont hate the game or the player the one thats changing is you.

[Proof]
Its gets lonely at the top cause my homie had to stop now we acting like I gotta live only for the block. And homies in the hood only see me on the tube So they gossip on the porch Get ta speaking all rude. fools I used to rap wit all expect magic like my finger get to snappin and poof it just happen. But proof is just acting out the part he was thrown, shady made it so my babies aint starving at home. See the devil in your glance, since the ghetto we been friends, forever real intellegence, thats forever till the end. I peep the hatred in your eyes, and the satan in your lies, aint wasting my time with these snakes in disguise. (HOW COME) When you talk it′s with bitter and spite? (AND HOW COME) It′s my fault for what you did with your life? And everytime I go to hear you play, you look away, we barely embrace, you cant even look me in my face.
