[VERSE 1]
The phone rings
Another peaceful moment is lost
Latifah´s chest jingle in "Set It Off"
I press pause in the bed as a king
I let it ring 4 or 5 times
Answer while I´m puffin´ my green
It´s Tamika sayin´, "Hi Nas"
I caught a flashback of her askin´ me was I asthmatic ´fore I tapped that
She offered me dinner under the moon
I said, "Sorry. I made plans at Ray´s Boom-Boom Room"
Nine push-ups... Strength´s gone at the tenth one so why hook up
The pimp´s gone off the Platron Tequila
Put on my Lee´s and the original Fila´s
Sedated from L´s, 380 cocked, naked ladies laid up in tails
Like Whodini I chose, gazelles don´t lean on my nose
Drivin´ by the clubs gleamin´ and go
Heads turn it´s a freak show
I need them to know... When will they learn
Nas need a queen not a hoe to...
Point out my enemies, a girl who´s into me
But not a hype chick- someone with proper energy
Someone who´s into me but won´t fuck with my enemies
And you can sing along ´cuz I´m feelin´ ya energy

[CHORUS (Claudette Ortiz)]
Hey Nas... How ya doin´?
Take my name... And my number
Meanwhile... We´ll be groovin´
But let´s take... it... slow

[VERSE 2]
One for the honeys who roll blunts up but don´t smoke
Two for the few who see potential in you when you broke
Three for the G they got, they game is hot I give it to you
Double life wife- play with the man that´s livin´ with you
Here´s the issue... A woman gotta be stunnin´
Get to a man´s heart through his stomach
You gotta be skilled in the culinary arts
Know a brother stay mad hungry when he spark
Hit the museum, maybe Central Park, you mentally smart
Picture we in Tiffany, you becomin´ my counterpart
If I want Chinese then you buy me a wok
If you want barbeque I call Professor and Ock
´Cuz u... point out my enemies, someone who´s into me
But not a hyper chick- someone with the proper energy
A girl that´s into me who won´t fuck all my enemies
And you could be the one ´cuz I´m lovin´ ya energy

[CHORUS (Kelis)]
Hey Nas... How ya doin´?
Take my name... And my number
Meanwhile... We´ll be cruisin´
But let´s take... it... slow

[VERSE 3]
Slow is the way
Holdin´ hands, tongue and hickeys
Hope and I pray where I run at you run away with me
That´s if my gun get busy we gotta get outta there
Hear sirens jump in the stick drop a Sedan and hide for years
Like noone else in the world did this except for us two
You gotta trust me, I gotta trust you
If coppers bust me it´s me you rescue, this to the death boo
You rep me respectfully that´s how I rep for you
Retired from pimpin´, perspire is drenchin´
As we... suck and fuck each other´s minds out commission
Time´s out forbidden
Until we pass out, that´s when we stop
We give it all we got, give it all we got- we hot
Give it all we got, give it all we got- we rock
Give it all we got, give it all we got
You ´bout the baddest thing
Since Michael had Billy Jean
And Prince gave you diamond´s and pearls
But to be my queen you must...
Point out my enemies, a girl who´s into me
But not a hype chick- someone with proper energy
Someone who´s into me who won´t fuck all my enemies
And you can be the one ´cuz I´m feelin´ ya energy

[CHORUS (Claudette & Kelis)]
Hey Nas... How ya doin´?
Take my name... And my number
Meanwhile... We´ll be cruisin´
But let´s take... it... slow

[Claudette (2x)]
I can be... What you said
That you need... I can be...All that
I can be... I can have your back... baby
