[Verse 1: Monica & (Missy Elliott)]
I'm Monica, I got people out on every block
And them say you been cheatin', what the blood clot?
Them rude boys, why you think you'se a hot shot?
You'll come back like them addicts look for crack spots
You must've fucked up, how dare you got me on lock?
You got me open like a chest with pneumonia
I'm quick to run up on ya, you and your chicks, I came to warn ya
I'm crazy like them gangs in California (Hey hey, uh)

And I will step to any bitch I think he messin' with (Aha) {Oh}
Watch what you say and what you do, sometimes I can't ignore it {Mmm}
From how you rap and spaz over your dude and love you for it {whoo}
Well, I'm a singer, not a fighter, but don't test me (Yeah)
I'm a razor blade under the tongue as a security (Oh yeah) {Aha}

What she do to make you love her, oh is it
Is it real or forever
Baby, please, can't we stay together?
What she do, I do better (Woo oh, oh)
What she do to make you love her
Is it real or forever
Baby, please, can't we stay together?
