Somehow, Someway


Shawty said, “stop blowin’ up my phone”
And I say, “girl, but I’m alone”
She don’t give a care for me
I know she’d never be there for me
Still, I keep up my tries
Because I can’t help lookin’ in her eyes
And thinking, maybe someday
Somehow, someway

Shawty don’t give a damn layin’ in a porcelain tub
While the man whose been dreamin’ about her all day
Is waitin’ by the telephone for her to call like she did say
But she’s rubbin’ soap down her body, feelin’ naughty, little shawty
It’s not even on her mind
She’s on her own grind ‘cause baby, she’s in her prime
Not sweet like a strawberry, she’s bitter like lime
But he waits, hopin’ on fate
His heart’s full of love, hers evaporates
She’s cruel, old school with higher expectations
He’s a fool, so uncool, but he’d die for her protection
And it’s not enough ‘cause he ain’t got what she wants
He plays tough, but he likes doin’ all her “don’ts”
Doesn’t stop him from trying hard
But she never seems to notice
So he calls her each time to let her know this

Shawty said, “stop blowin’ up my phone”
And I say, “girl, but I’m alone”
She don’t give a care for me
I know she’d never be there for me
Still, I keep up my tries
Because I can’t help lookin’ in her eyes
And thinking, maybe someday
Somehow, someway

No reason to believe she’ll ever truly look at him
He’s not a sleeze, but little mama’s makin’ the chances slim
He’s up all night wonderin’ what can he do to express his lovin’
If only he could get a little closer and maybe get at least one kiss in
His plans are messed up
That chick is busy gettin’ dressed up
He’s callin’ and she’s fed up
Her face is gettin’ red up
“Go away, boy. Stop ringin’”
Just to hear her voice and his heart is singin’
Not obsessed, but thinks she’s the best
Sentimental-wise, he knows she ain’t the greatest
But her smile, damn, it drives him wild
And sometimes he finds himself imagining a child
With a wife as beautiful as she is
While he’s sendin’ her a text askin’ how she is

Shawty said, “stop blowin’ up my phone”
And I say, “girl, but I’m alone”
She don’t give a care for me
I know she’d never be there for me
Still, I keep up my tries
Because I can’t help lookin’ in her eyes
And thinking, maybe someday
Somehow, someway

Baby girl, little shawty
Can I just say you’re a real hotty?
Every guy must have his eyes on you
But I’m seein’ much more than that too
I feel like you’re hidin’ somethin’ sweet inside
And I wish I knew what it was, would you confide?
There’s gotta be more than your harsh words
Your voice is the most angelic thing I’ve ever heard
And I know you’re gonna toss me out
And I know you don’t see anything in me
But I’m plannin’ on stickin’ around
With my fingers crossed that somehow, someway you’ll love me
Oh, oh
Ooh, oh, oh
Yeah, yeah

Shawty said, “stop blowin’ up my phone”
And I say, “girl, but I’m alone”
She don’t give a care for me
I know she’d never be there for me
Still, I keep up my tries
Because I can’t help lookin’ in her eyes
And thinking, maybe someday
Somehow, someway
(Repeat x1)

Yeah, yeah
Somehow, someway, someday
