Whatever I Want
Ooooh, you 'bout to get mad. Feels good to say it, but it might sound bad.
I ain't gold digging, I don't need your cash. But learn how to treat me or stick to the trash.
Can't treat a lady how you treat a wack chick. Better stick with your demographic. I'm saying what i mean and I hope it don't sting, but if you were me then you would say the same thing.
I'm not nice, but I'm not mean. I fall somewhere in between.
I love them boys but I ain't no freak.
I'm not stuck up but I sho'll ain't cheap.
A man don't work the he sho'll don't eat.
That means if it's worthy you know it ain't free.
Your clothes aint free. Your watch ain't free.
So free ain't the thing my time's gon be.
Take Nikki on a cheap date and I can't sit through it.
Couldn't give a care if you paid me to do it.
Claim you got cash, I'ma hold you to it.
And tax that boy like I'm Jackson Hewitt.
How you got a new pair of Jordan's on your feet
while you're trying to be cheap where you're taking me to eat?
I'm outta your league, stick to your home team.
And if you were me then you would say the same thing.
All I want in life is whatever I want
That's why I provide me whatever I want.
If you don't like to give whatever I want
Plenty other guys give whatever I want
I really, really want whatever I want.
The sky is the limit if you gimme what I need babe.
I really, really want whatever I want.
The sky is the limit, if you want it better say so.
I really, really want whatever I want.
The sky is the limit if you gimme my way, boy.
I really, really want whatever I want.
The sky is the limit if you want me, baby yeah.
Nah... You don't have to like it. You can go find yourself a sidekick.
She can be everything you need from the second class,
baby I'm Grade a, just let me pass.
That ain't cras, and I ain't mad. I think you're better off with an under grad.
She ain't got nothing like what you woulda had if you treated me as good
as how bad you wanna smash. If I wanna donate my free time
I'll go join P.E.T.A. or March of Dimes,
so keep the 2 piece with a side of fries
cuz a breast and a thigh only works on guys.
Cry me a river, I'ma wash my hair. Ask me to dinner, I'ma be like "Where?"
Treat me like a queen, I'ma treat you like a king, and if you were me then you would say the same thing.
All I want in life is whatever I want
That's why I provide me whatever I want.
I think that my time's worth whatever I want
I don't care cuz I'm worth whatever I want
I really, really want whatever I want.
The sky is the limit if you gimme what I need babe.
I really, really want whatever I want.
The sky is the limit, if you want it better say so.
I really, really want whatever I want.
The sky is the limit if you gimme my way, boy.
I really, really want whatever I want.
The sky is the limit if you want me, baby yeah.
All I want in life is whatever I want
That's why I provide me whatever I want.
I don't need a lot, just whatever I want
Life's too short to not have whatever I want
