Lyrics Faith Evans – The Reason
Text:
The Notorious B.I.G.:
Now Biggie Smalls is not the type to fall in love with ’em
Hit ’em and forget ’em and go handle my business
What is this with you, all you wanna do is lay around
Tuesday I saw you on the zee, but you still wanna get wit me
Wednesday is the Benz day, that’s what your friends say
So I guess you think I’m slippin’ cause I ain’t flippin’
Baby, I’m Big Poppa, ain’t no need to be trippin’
Faith Evans:
I don’t care about the money or the cars that you got uh
‘Cause it don’t mean nothing
I done did a whole lot and I got my own
I can teach you some thing
I’m not impressed by those things
‘Cause I ain’t the one who needs you
The reason that I fuck with you ain’t because I need you baby
I do what I wanna do, I don’t need a man to save me
If it’s money in the bank, I got it
You don’t never have to do without it with me
The Notorious B.I.G.:
All I do all day is drink Tanqueray
Thinking of a way to put a smile on your face
It seems like it’s a waste of time, that’s why I wrote the rhyme
I hear you jump in every car, except for mine
Faith Evans:
But you mean them Benzes and Bentleys they see me in all the time?
The range rover trucks? That’s all mine
The Notorious B.I.G.:
You better slow your roll baby, you ain’t got enough dough to pay me
Faith Evans:
I don’t care about the money or the cars that you got uh
‘Cause it don’t mean nothing
I done did a whole lot and I got my own
I can teach you some thing
I’m not impressed by those things
‘Cause I ain’t the one who needs you
The reason that I fuck with you ain’t because I need you baby
I do what I wanna do, I don’t need a man to save me
If it’s money in the bank, I got it
You don’t never have to do without it with me
So let me hold you down
You could do the same for me
Baby you’re so bright on top
I could be your everything
Just don’t take me for granted
Like someone else couldn’t have it
There’s so many fish in the sea (so many fish in the sea)
The reason that I fuck with you ain’t because I need you baby
I do what I wanna do, I don’t need a man to save me
If it’s money in the bank, I got it
You don’t never have to do without it with me
The reason that I fuck with you ain’t because I need you baby
I do what I wanna do, I don’t need a man to save me
If it’s money in the bank, I got it
You don’t never have to do without it with me
The reason that I fuck with you ain’t because I need you baby
I do what I wanna do, I don’t need a man to save me
If it’s money in the bank, I got it
You don’t never have to do without it with me
