[Verse 1]
Tell me do you remember when (Mmm)
You were talking to your best friend and she mentioned
There was someone, a gentleman (Mmm)
Who was trying his best to extend an invitation

[Pre-Chorus]
If you get to know me (Oh), baby, it'll be a really good thing
And baby, no strings (No), I know it seems like I'm coming off strong
I hope you don't mind (Ooh) spending time, just you and me
Just you and me, I know you will have a good time

[Chorus]
That somebody was me (Oh, girl)
I'm the one that called you up with the blocked ID for a week (Mmm)
See I was holding back my feelings, wasn't sure (Oh)
I wasn't sure how you would respond to me, it was me, girl

[Verse 2]
Girl, I bet you remember when (Mmm)
You went out with your girls clubbing and dancing, yeah
You glanced at a gentleman (Mmm)
I got your number from your girlfriends, they said you was wrong

[Pre-Chorus]
To know me (Woah), baby, it'll be a really good thing
Baby, no strings (Yeah), I know it seems like I'm coming off strong
I hope you don't mind (Yeah) spending time, just you and me
Just you and me, I know you will have a good time

[Chorus]
That somebody was me (The one that called you)
The one that called you (Yeah) up with the blocked ID for a week (Woah)
See I was holding back my feelings, wasn't sure, babe
I wasn't sure how you would respond to me (Wasn't sure), it was me, girl (It was me)
That somebody was me (It was me, baby)
I'm the one that called you up with the blocked ID for a week (Yeah, see, girl, I was)
See I was holding back my feelings, wasn't sure (See I was holding back, baby)
I wasn't sure how you would respond to me, it was me, girl (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Bridge]
Woah, oh, oh (Mmm)
Not ashamed to say it was me, baby
Not ashamed to say it was me (Mmm)
I'm not ashamed, they said

[Chorus]
That somebody was me (That somebody was me)
The one that called you up with the blocked ID for a week (The one that called you up with the blocked ID, yeah)
See I was holding back my feelings, wasn't sure, babe (I was holding back, baby, yeah, yeah)
I wasn't sure how you would respond to me (Oh), it was me, girl (It was me)
That somebody was me
I'm the one that called you up with the blocked ID for a week (With the blocked ID)
See I was holding back my feelings, wasn't sure (Said I was holding back)
I wasn't sure how you would respond to me, it was me, girl (Ooh, ooh)

[Outro]
That somebody was me
The one that called you up with the blocked ID for a week
(Not ashamed to say it was me)
It was me, girl
(Not ashamed to say it was me)
See I was holding back my feelings
I wasn't sure how you would respond to me
(La-da-da-da)
It was me, girl
Yeah, mmm, yeah

Grammy-winning R&B singer, rapper, dancer, graffiti artist, illustrator and the first male lead artist to have his debut single top the Billboard Hot 100 in 8 years with “Run It!” in 2005, Breezy is undoubtedly a multifaceted artist. To add to this, he is the father of Royalty, a princess and the inspiration for his 7th studio album Royalty.

It’s undeniable his ability as a musician, dancer, and all-round entertainer. At the 54th Annual Grammy Awards (February 12th, 2012) his 4th studio album F.A.M.E. won the award for Best R&B Album and a huge number of other awards and nominations ranging from his debut as a 16 year old in 2005 to his most recent projects.

Brown’s career is long-lived, pristine and all about his music with hits such as “Look At Me Now,” “Turn Up the Music,” and “Loyal,” and successful collaborations with Omarion on his hit “Post to Be” and Lil Dicky's “Freaky Friday” in recent years.
