Verse 1
These are the rules of the game
Peep how I do my thang
Gotta keep that work in line homeboy
I hope you do tha same
I’m mr. Keep it real
Them shawty’s know tha deal
Some of yall whip up them lies
And flip them dreams to cop a feel
Neva that my game ain’t slack
I’m upfront when i step to misses
Shawty blew u off but at B.A. she’s steady blowin’ kisses
Son it ain’t my fault you played yourself and lookin like a fool
Imma break it down for all of y’all niggaz don’t know tha rules
Chorus-
We gon play by tha rules X4
Play by- play by – play by tha rules X4
Verse 2
See tha game ain’t got no heart
Gotta keep your pimping smart
Organize steps in your game to get that girl that’s off tha charts
She say she got a man
That’s when you change your plan
Gotta get things crunk don’t see no ring upon that girl’s left hand
One thing i noticed it’s not what you say but how you say it
I really hate tha game but never could i hate a player
Son it’s just recognizing real and there ain’t no disguise
Gotta step with confidence just make sure u look in her eyes
Chorus-
We gon play by tha rules X4
Play by- play by – play by tha rules X4
Verse 3
Gotta play your cards right man
Sit tight don’t tip your hand
Puttin down your game player don’t change
You best stick with tha plan
Know what you want in life
Don’t settle for no other
‘cuz she could be your wife-
Or just another lover
Check how you met your chick ‘cuz certain signs can point to danger
You overlooked them signs in hopes that you could try to change her
That ain’t gon change because she likes to do them things she likes
Might switch them habits but she ain’t gon flip that appetite
Chorus-
We gon play by tha rules X4
Play by- play by – play by tha rules X4
