Payback

I never thought my heart could break
But I heard the argument by mistake  
 
He kept saying he was creeping because she spent money  
She broke down and said she was keeping up with his honeys  
 
She bought hair extensions because she knew he liked it long  
Found all the sexiest dresses, skirts, heels and sleezy thongs  
 
She cried as she said she had lost so many pounds  
Hoping to keep him happy and willing to stick around  
 
But even after chances she gave that he didn't deserve  
He still went out with his homies, still fucked around with her  
 
When mistress started sniffing around and showing up at her work  
There had to be a change, so what the fuck was money worth?  
 
I didn't mean to interfere, but I said we'll pay it back  
Give a list of all expenses made by her to settle that  
 
Instead of escrow and a settlement, here's what will happen next  
Ima buy the house and you'll give her half of the check  
 
What bills we pay will make chump change look like a stack  
You could have kept the house and rolled away a fat and comfy cat  
 
Have fun dishing rent that costs more than your current payments  
You'll never find a better deal than our original arrangement  
 
But right now I need her to walk away with some dignity  
How dare you say you cheated because she spent too much money  
 
Most of which she made herself so really how dare you  
You could have left here with a win but now Ima make sure that you lose  
 
But you sister  
 
Breaking down your life until the pieces are rearranged  
I'm so proud and I'm so sorry that you felt you had to change    
I never thought I'd hear such weakness and defeat in your voice  
It broke my heart, knowing that slavery was ever your choice  
 
We will build you again  
Ground up just like our rats  
We'll find you a new home  
That's how we'll pay him back for that.
