lyrics

She could be my, Queen to be, Vanessa Bell Calloway.
Yin to my Yang on that one foot balance thang.
Hair cut short goin thru her Halle phase.
I can see her in my Palace with the Palisades.
Forever Honeymooners in that Ralph & Alice stage.
Alpha Male in the Jungle trynna salvage Jane.
But she don't need me and my valiant ways.
Just a little recognition and her talents praised.
Imagine if Heaven's a mile away.
The closest thing to Helen Folasade.
Adu I do? I'm trynna get married today.
Black Ops yellin: Too soon! Carried away.
I ain't even ask her what her name was yet.
Already wondering if she trynna claim a husband.
I think I need to just tone it down...
She got my thoughts racin’ while I'm sippin on this crown, wow.

CHORUS:
Say the Word and WE can Start.
YOU can by my Queen of Hearts.
I can See the Future,
From Inside my Crystal Ball.
Say the Word and WE can Start.
YOU can by my Queen of Hearts.
I can See that YOU and me,
are just a Game of Cards.



She out for Presidents to represent her.
But, Dead that like Marylin. I make a chick from bougie to head wrap.
And, I ain’t talkin’ bout Badu or Irie. I mean I make her feen Karrine Steffans for Press, ACTION.
Not trynna make a Hoe a Baby Mama Drama, But, I do like some Crazy on my Lady.
I got problems but I’m balanced.
I’m guilty but acquitted, Orenthal. If it ain’t a challenge, I ain’t trynna kill it, won’t call.
Just don’t walk up and UPS the digits.
YOU might as well just threw em out the window.
I don’t pick up the litter.
And, I probably won’t like YOU if YOU cool with ALL my niggas Already, Go figure.
But, yo figure make me wonder maybe...
YOU make flip heads to tails when that money-maker toss-up.
Just hate when you through, butt-naked and YOU leave the stage,
and Security walks up saying: Hey, Get Out The Way!



CHORUS:
Say the Word and WE can Start.
YOU can by my Queen of Hearts.
I can See the Future, From Inside my Crystal Ball.
Say the Word and WE can Start.
YOU can by my Queen of Hearts.
I can See that YOU and me, are just a Pair of Cards.


OUTRO CHORUS:
Say the Word Girl,
YOU can be my Queen of...
Say the Word Girl,
YOU can be my Queen of Hearts.
