Lovesick - Gang Starr

Strangely enough I’ve been struck

Affected by her smile, and yo, her style is worthwhile

And knowing that I’m deep like a river, I feel I should give her

Things that those others can’t deliver

Contrary to what I had wished, it seems that I’ve been dissed

But hey, I don’t want to miss this

Wonderful opportunity, my boys, they try schoolin' me

But see I know what I want

Someone who’ll be there for the whole nine, this honey is so fine

But now she’s hung up the line

Upset because I told her I’m busy, she made like a grizzly

And started chewin' my head off

Screamin' that I spend more time with friends

And also, she said I ruined her weekend

I said «I know the stuff we had planned but please understand

Right now I’m loungin' with my man»

I guess I didn’t realize I’d hurt her, she said I had the nerve to

Just neglect her like that

Then she started bringing up past things and she kept asking

How come our love isn’t lasting?

I said, «Hey baby, please calm down 'cause I’m still around

And it’s for you that my heart pounds

Can I call you later on?

You say I treat you wrong?

But why you flippin' on me?»

She said something else and then click

Left me alone on the phone with the tone

And now I’m Lovesick

Love… sick, sick, sick, sick

Relationships can grip with the pain

Arguments in the crib, in the streets, on the train

I’m crazy fed but then still

When she ain’t there I feel sad, I feel ill

Frowning 'cause I’m down in the dumps

The other night I took her out, so she could shake her rump

But after we were there for a few, some girls that I knew

Stepped up and asked me to come to

A party they were havin' at their house

I looked at my girl, and yo, she started walkin' out

I said «Hey love, just wait for a second, and won’t you just check it?

It’s all a part of makin' records

Those were just some friends in the business

No need to get angry, so listen up while I kick this

And what about the things we discussed about havin' trust?

What’s all this attitude stuff?

Now hon, you know that I wouldn’t play you

But time after time, you let your jealousy sway you

Hey, don’t you turn your back like that, come on, this is wack

You’re heated up like a thermostat»

Then she stepped off in a whirlwind

And I don’t know when or if I’m gonna see her again

I could’ve sworn she was the right one to pick

But now… man, I’m just Lovesick
