    You used to love them, leave them, kiss them
    Break their hearts, but now I got you in my arms
    You used to get them, trick them, diss them
    Do them wrong, but now your playa days are gone
    Everybody knew about you baby and the games you played
    Couldn't count the names, faces and numbers
    Nor the times you laid down
    But somebody knew about you baby and that youÂ'd change
    It was me cause I could see my love would turn you around
    You used to love them, leave them, kiss them
    Break their hearts, but now I got you in my arms
    You used to get them, trick them, diss them
    Do them wrong, but now your playa days are gone
    I always say never say never boy, but you did
    That's when I took your mind and I flipped the script
    Your boys talkin' 'bout you're falling off
    And that you're whipped
    But who are they to say when it's all my love I give to you
    You used to love them, leave them, kiss them
    Break their hearts, but now I got you in my arms
    You used to get them, trick them, diss them
    Do them wrong, but now your playa days are gone
    [Rap: Rashad]
    I was a playa building on dreams doing my thing
    When I saw her hunting like wolverine she up in my claws
    It was puppy love now what's the timing dawg?
    Vicious on the draws like jaws, dun nun, dun nun, dun nun
    No girls in the water 'cause of the slaughter
    Now you know I 'oughta know better like Schwarzenegger
    You my eraser to the life of a hopeless playa
    Big willy terminator, not greater or less
    Cause you the best of the best and you know what
    You put this playa to rest and caused my death, yes
    Hey, hey, yeah
    (You used toooo, oh yeah)
    You used to love them, leave them, kiss them (break their little hearts)
    Break their hearts, but now I got you in my arms (you did baby)
    You used to get them, trick them, diss them (yes you did)
    Do them wrong (do them wrong), but now your playa days are gone (oooh yeah)
    You used to love them, leave them, kiss them (You used to love them)
    Break their hearts, but now I got you in my arms (baby I got you where you belong)
    You used to get them, trick them, diss them
    Do them wrong (do them wrong), but now your playa days are gone (now they're gone)
    You used to get them, trick them, diss them
    (Yeaaah) But now your playa days are gone (Ooooh yeah)
    Hey, hey, hey yeah, hey
    Hey, hey, hey yeah, hey

      Tracy Sharp no it was not, this was after him - and per Damon Dash and Christopher John Farley, she did not like being asked about him or talking about him. per Damon - she wouldn’t even talk to him about it, only to say he was a very bad man. per Christopher - she responded uncharacteristically icily when asked about him at 22 years old. ps - not only do you not know the facts, but it’s very sick that you would even think to say that this song would be from a then 16 year old to her perpetrator from when she was even younger. seek God.
