[Verse 1: JC]

Face all innocent

When opposites attract it's no coincidence

This acquaintance is of significance

Your body is magnificent I smell your inexperience

Incents in the air

High risk

Build fence

Your defense is prepared

I see you get intensive with care

Players take advantage not a victim is spared

Cold thing about the game is, its set up for me to win

Blame me for doing just that, and I'll probably do it again

Real nigga Cold like winter

Hall of Fame Player always deliver

Doc like Rivers, Flash like pictures

I haze rookies, no beginners

I'm a vet and you don't even know it yet

Once you find out who I am baby girl you'll be so upset

But you make your own decisions why you wanna blame me?

I just do my job because a player's what the game needs

A player is what the game breeds

Player so essential that a player's what the game bleeds

I'll tell you what you wanna be told

Make you feel special like you never been wanted before

You just want to be close and so yo feelings exposed

I'll stroke your soul til you can't feel any toes

Head over heels when them heels go overhead

Homies over you and never you over bread

Not a feeling of dread because you played me first

Laughing with yo homegirls made me seem third

Relive it in me verse

Relive it in reverse

Pretty girl got what she deserves

[Chorus: EsseKay]

I shoulda been running

I shoulda been running

I shoulda been running

I shoulda been running

You told me lies you made vulnerable

I shoulda been running

I shoulda been running

I shoulda been running

I shoulda been running

I shoulda been running

You told me lies boy you're so typical

I shoulda been running

[Verse 2: JC]

Hold up

I think you should know that you're a dime

And I'm different...

(Player nigga favorite line)

You fine, borderline divine

You want something serious

I just want the chance to waste your time

Never trust em as far as I can throw em

Life lessons contained inside this poem

She just wanna drink and smoke my marijuana

Exaggerate emotions like a melodrama

And I ain't here for it

Beast mode you know what I'm here for

Touchdowns at the air pro, your head against the headboard yea

But I ain't trying to be ya nigga though

Sorry if you feel misled

If it's one thing that a nigga know

It's that everybody gets misread

Illiterate I'm slightly inconsiderate

Reputation for swerving I'll curve you just like my penmanship

My hear cold as a cooler

I measure time with a ruler

This shit here is a foot long I don't see you in my future

[Chorus: EsseKay]

I shoulda been running

I shoulda been running

I shoulda been running

I shoulda been running

You told me lies you made vulnerable

I shoulda been running
