This going out to all the females that be having
To beat them motherfuckers in they head to get them
Off of them, Haha
Another shady mission, tricks, like watchin’ pictures in hazy vision
Tonight is love makin’, take you any place you wish
Today we’re satisfied, yesterday we’ve stolen kisses
Blind insanity, perfect pictures of me and my family
Not understanding the destiny, had they planned for me?
If I have kids, will I live to see them grow?
Though I don’t know, I live the life of a thug nigga
Until the day I go, no broken promises
A sacred bond broken, I know I die alone
But yet and still I’m hopin’
Visions of prisons, maybe I’ll be forgiven
I know it’s better in heaven cause bein’ here ain’t livin’
Close my eyes and see nothing but pain, the world is crazy, still
Lookin’ for a queen to plant seeds and have babies
Maybe I’ll be the one or just maybe I’m lost
You’ll never know being cautious, if you play your cards right
Play your cards right baby, haha, play your cards right
Play your cards right girl, take ya time
Take your time baby, be patient
Just be patient baby, don’t rush
Don’t you rush it girl
Uh huh, Luda
You ain’t gotta do that baby
It’s not the hand that you’re dealt but how you playin’ your cards
You got a brother feelin’ mellow like a Cuban cigar
You truly a star, we’ll take the days one at a time
I think we make the perfect pair, cause you my one of a kind
I say we make a full house, live out the family dreams
No jokers, no jacks, just kings and queens
And we should leave the clubs alone and take trips to islands
Give you all of my heart and flood your hands with diamonds
No more livin’ like a playa, stop chasin’ the hoes
I never put you in a shuffle, use my ace in the hole
I live a life full of riches we got places to go
So no bluffin’, no rushin’, just takin’ it slow
Let your man do the hustling while you lay in the shade
I’ll throw a deuce to the haters, call a spade a spade
And let you know I’ll never hurt you, baby girl
You made me hurry up and wait and I know patience is a virtue
Haha, play your cards right baby
Play your cards right baby, haha, play your cards right
Play your cards right girl, take ya time
Take your time baby, be patient
Just be patient baby, don’t rush
Don’t you rush it girl
You’re the one, the only one heaven sent for me
Baby, I’m hopin’ that you understand, that you still believe
That I got the special times, on my mind, just hopin’ that you see
Baby that the thug in me is lovin’ you, that this is meant to be
Girl I’ll never leave you alone
You’re the one, the only one heaven sent for me
Baby, I’m hopin’ that you understand, that you still believe
That I got the special times, on my mind, just hopin’ that you see
Baby that the thug in me is lovin’ you, that this is meant to be
Girl I’ll never leave you alone
Play your cards right baby
Play your cards right girl, just play your cards
Take your time baby, play your cards right
Just be patient baby, take your time, girl
Don’t you rush it girl
Rush it girl, hahaha
Play your cards right baby, be patient
Play your cards right girl, play your cards right
Take your time baby, yeah
Just be patient baby
Don’t you rush it girl
