[Intro: Fat Joe]
Crack, crack, crack
I don't care that's what Ricky says

[Chorus]
I don't care, I just want to be yours
I know I told you I'd
Never love you the way that I did again
After all that you did to me
But I got to say
I don't care, I just want to be yours
And I am trying everything in my power
To never ever say
Please come back to me
But I got to say

[Verse 1]
You promised me
We'd always be
You'd never let me go
You took the ring and all the things
That came with being my girl
A tragedy as I walked through that door
He had your feet up over the seat
All I heard was screaming

[Pre-Chorus]
It was like a movie
Too real to me
That just can't be my bride to be... No!
I was shocked as could be
Never thinking one day
I'd take this blow blow blow
I was starting to feel like
I should kill everything that was moving... Whoa!
I've never been in hell like this
Somebody wake me up

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
The crazy part was that he
Just kept going
'cause she was the only one
That had noticed me
Staring into the eyes
That I will one day call my babe
How could I've fallen so in love
With someone I'd known for years
And not even know that
She'd be the one
To reveal my worst fears

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Verse 3: Amerie] [x2]
I didn't mean to do
All those things to you
Tell me what to do to make it up to you
I'll do everything, anything that you want me to

[Verse 4: Fat Joe]
Should I leave, should I go, should I break apart
My mama said you would break my heart
I can't believe you were sleazing, you're a slut, a ho
Now you wanna have a change of heart - Damn!
Who'd have thought
That you would deceive me
Love of my life
And my queen like Evie
And you didn't even tell me you leaving
I had to hear about it on Escandalo TV
Now who's this man creeping in the back door
While I'll hit him with the fo fo fo
I know you keep saying that you loving me so
But why the hell are you crushing him for
God damn now
I don't care that's what Ricky says and
If I catch him in this crib he'd be dead
I don't play that mami
Now back to the 'jects you go
I left your Reebok's by the front door
Kick rocks

[Chorus]

[Outro: Amerie]
Sorry baby
Didn't mean to hurt you

Enrique Martín Morales (born December 24, 1971), commonly known as Ricky Martin, is a Puerto Rican singer, actor and author. Martin began his career at age 12 with the all-boy pop group Menudo. After five years with the group, he released several Spanish-language solo albums throughout the 1990s. He also acted on stage and on TV in Mexico, where he achieved modest stardom. In 1994, he appeared on the US TV soap opera General Hospital, playing a Puerto Rican singer.

In early 1999, after releasing several albums in Spanish, Martin performed “The Cup of Life” at the 41st Annual Grammy Awards show, which became a catalyst in bringing Latin pop to the forefront of the U.S. music scene. Following its success, Martin released “Livin' la Vida Loca”, which helped him attain enormous success worldwide; it is generally seen as the song that began the Latin pop explosion of 1999 and made the transition easier for other Spanish-speaking artists to move into the English-speaking market. Since its release, the song has sold over 8 million copies, making it one of the best selling singles of all time. His first English-language album (also titled Ricky Martin), has sold 22 million copies and is one of the best selling albums of all time. His other studio albums Me Amarás (1993), A Medio Vivir (1995), Vuelve (1998), Sound Loaded (2000), Almas del Silencio (2003), Life (2005), Música + Alma + Sexo (2011), and A Quien Quiera Escuchar (2015). In 2018, he portrayed Antonio D'Amico on The Assassination of Gianni American Crime Story for which he received a nomination for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Movie.
