maybachs diamonds

Ryan Leslie

And so i give her

What she wants, what she needs
Why
cause her love is worth more than
Maybachs and diamonds, yeah

You got them big dreams in your eyes
You re thinkin hollywood
If i could be your woody allen, then i probably would
Write a nice script, make you my lead girl
Put your talent on display for the free world
Liz taylor, you re lookin for that right man
I m black all your ex s they ve been white men
But don t that make it more excitin ?
If that s a crime i m ready for the indictment
Yeah, i think it s way more sexy
When you speak your mind, you check me
And you re color blind you just accept me
Plus you re a smart girl, you know where them checks be
Right here, plus you got your own too
Since i met you, you ve been standing on your own two
And so there s nothing that i won t do
Maybach, chrome shoes, every time i come through

I give her
What she wants, what she needs
Why
cause her love is worth more than
Maybachs and diamonds, yeah

We used to argue, i would call you a f*ckin bitch
But we made it through the storm now we re f*ckin rich
You ve been a friend to me
You kept it real when others would just pretend to be
I couldn t see it then, i would get mad when you criticized
Told you that you were buggin , you over analyzed
I know i said i didn t care we was breakin up
Still flew half way around the world to make it up
And all the first-class seats were sold out
But it was summer where you were and for me was cold out
So, like a champion after defeat
You watched me break down and cry in the passenger seat
You put your arm around me, told me it would be just fine
I d be yours and you would be just mine
And you wanted the love bracelet
i said you get what you pay for
The black card - we re buying the cartier store

I give her
What she wants, what she needs
Why
cause her love is worth more than
Maybachs and diamonds, yeah
