(Verse 1) [T.I.] They say love blind, so why can't I picture this guhl mine? Yea I dig her but I figure, I'm wastin this guhl time I'm runnin from relationshipz, scared to commit Mad at monogamy, sexually, I'm a misfit But this shit's... way too much fo me Usually I can take'em and make'em a cut buddy Yo mama probably see me, and say that I'm no good I was born in the burbs, I was raised in the hood We from two seperate sides of life, two different backgrounds Shawty been legit and I just started to rap now I ain't tryina act now, I'm bein real witchu Really, I just wanted to kick it and chill witchu But the picture got bigger, 'fo I could even paint it Thoughts got deeper befo' a nigga could think A playa like me on this, strange ain't it? One thang bout yo feelins is this, you can't change it Yo preception on me, I don't think I can maintain We flirtin with disaster, this game we playin iz dangerous You the best thang that happened since I don became famous But sometimes I think we shoulda remained strangers
(Chorus) [Jazze Pha] I... I chose you baby (Stay with me now, stay with me, sing it fo me shawty) I, I, I, I... I chose you baby (Ah, come on, uh, uh, uh c'mon)
(Verse 2) [T.I.] I like you to persue, but still I respect it to let it go Give it time, give it room to breathe and let it grow I'll just tell her when I'm ready to change, I'll let her know Hate to say it, but til then be friendz and nuthin mo Evendoe anotha time, anotha life, anotha place I swear I know we coulda been great But rather than great, you lil heart take the smile of yo face So I can treat you righ, I'm willin ta wait And ain't shit fake, I know it sound funny comin from a felon But I think I got a piece of whuz up in heaven So to keep from, blockin mah blessings, think I better back up Last thang a nigga need now is bad luck But if my life was perfect shawty, I'da had her I guess, I guess I don't deserve it, ballaz tell me you ain't worth it So I gots to hit the surface, I'll holla when I holla Act like I don't wanna see ya, and I'on wanna call'er
