The Exception

I had rules
I had standards
I was a "G"
I had manners
Didn't take shit
Just stack bricks
I'm about my hits
Ain't no time for the bullshit
In walks you
Six foot two
'Locs 'bout longer than mine
Optimist
Chocolate skin
I'm telling y'all
This nigga was fine

But he wasn't on my level, though
I had to step up off my pedestal
To fuck with you
I'm stuck with you
(My love is true)
Knocked down all my barriers
Stepping out of character
I would never ever blow a nigga phone like creditors
With all these niggas in America
But

Boy, you are the exception
You were my lesson
A negative blessing
Boy, you are the exception
Exception
Boy, you are the exception

You fuckin' with a real bitch now
Somebody that's gon' hold you down
So you better sweep the ground
For a bitch like me
(Like me)
And bless the day I iced your life
God upgraded you twice
You won't find a bitch so fly
That's gon' hold you down like me
(Like me)

Pussy so good
You wish another bitch could
So you don't gotta put up with me
Complex superiority
Reminding you I'm paying for things
Bills and everything in my name
You just gotta give me that thang
When I want it
That's my dick, I own it
But

Boy, you are the exception
You were my lesson
A negative blessing
Boy, you are the exception
Exception
Boy, you are the exception

You fuckin' with a real bitch now
Somebody that's gon' hold you down
So you better sweep the ground
For a bitch like me
(Like me)
And bless the day I iced your life
God upgraded you twice
You won't find a bitch so fly
That's gon' hold you down like me
(Like me)
