Living in the city keep my head on the swivel
All these pretty women got me feeling noncommittal
Hotcakes on the griddle, ah ah, they sizzle
A beautiful buffet fixing my plate is never simple
So I choose to sample, searching for that perfect recipe
That I can handle, knowing that it's never that
But recognizing what'll keep me settled now I'm better at
Tried the spiciest - stomach ain't agree with that
Like a little flavor, love it when she sweet with that
Something in my nature make me wanna cut a piece of that
Fast food dining, really ain't my thang
And 5-star restaurant prices out my range
Felt ashamed since I'm back on the market
But glimpsing at the harvest got me inching toward a target
I'm different 'cause I'm smarter when I'm picking out a partner
Finger-licking delicious but still won't clog my heart up

On to the next step, not what they expect
But I ain't trippin', 'cause they ain't seen my best yet
I ain't trippin', I know that I'm the best kept
It ain't a secret, you losing if you sleeping
On to the next step, not what they expect
But I ain't trippin', 'cause they ain't seen my best yet
I ain't trippin', I know that I'm the best kept
It ain't a secret, you losing if you sleeping

My mind has an aversion to basic-ness
My ideal version on some evasiveness
Sharing how I really feel keep her faking it
But it's real so forever she embracing it
I know it sound like a lot of double-speak
When you love 'em then you leave 'em they assuming you was cheating
That's a valid reason... until you pay attention
My leaving was suspension I could never do detention
She tried to handcuff but I don't fit the description
I tried to man-up but the woman never listened
So now I'm laying up in the lounges with these breezies
Looking for some attention to help me breathe easy
Truthfully, I ain't built for the chase
Last chick pretty much killed all my faith
Still I move forward ironically pumping brakes
Mash on the gas when I'm ready for the race
On to the next step, not what they expect
But I ain't trippin', 'cause they ain't seen my best yet
I ain't trippin', I know that I'm the best kept
It ain't a secret, you losing if you sleeping
On to the next step, not what they expect
But I ain't trippin', 'cause they ain't seen my best yet
I ain't trippin', I know that I'm the best kept
It ain't a secret, you losing if you sleeping

I'm really out here, and they saying I still got it
And they kind of missed it... sho' you right
They really out here, and I'm saying that I got this
But it's real specific - I know my type
I'm really out here, and they saying I still got it
And they kind of missed it... sho' you right
They really out here, and I'm saying that I got this
But it's real specific - I know my type
