i want y’all to throw your hands up
i just said that ’cause i ain’t really have nothin’ to say right then at that point
but then i remembered that this the part where we send a special request, a special shoutout to all the ladies
ladies! ladies! ladies! all the women in the house, let me hear y’all make some noise
word up, word up, word up
this sh-t is going out to you, you namsayin’? we gon’ have, uh, yeah
y’all feel that? that cool out sh-t -trumpet solo-

one time, ladies, let me hear the ladies make some noise one more time
where y’all at?
i’m tryna tell you

[chorus]
girl, you know that you need to stop givin’ me the silent
treatment, baby
can’t you see what you mean to me?
i wanna love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
and treating me silently
all of y’all sound drunk, ya namsayin’?
girl, you know that you need to stop givin’ me the silent
treatment, baby
can’t you see what you mean to me?
i wanna love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
and treating me silently
taking you back, how many of y’all remember this joint right here?
here we go

[verse 1: black thought]
yo, i had a queen named amina, height was 5’7″
caramel complexion, body like heaven
met her through the sister of my man big vince
like some sh-t from out the flicks we been in love ever since
she called me her chocolate brotha, i call her my sugar sista
coolin’ out, spending time with a n-gg-
yo, i never dissed her, painted my picture to hit
but because of it she wasn’t with, she would be flippin’ the script
like, “listen, yo, i’m queen amina, amina’s not your freak and
your game’s weak and keep tryin’ to hit i could quit speakin’
tariq, in fact, just ’cause you black thought don’t get ya closer
i dig ya but won’t see ya ’cause i’m so-called supposed ta
most of them would, that couldn’t be me, that’s not my flava
it’s not sweet like that, i’ll, i’ll catch ya later”
i contemplated, wonderin’ if she was bluffin’
steady pursuin’ you and gettin’ nothin’ but the silent treatment

[chorus]
girl, you know that you need to stop givin’ me the silent
treatment, baby
can’t you see what you mean to me?
i wanna love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
and treating me silently, silently
girl, you know that you need to stop givin’ me the silent
treatment, baby
y’all know this joint?
can’t you see what you mean to me?
i wanna love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
and treating me silently, silently

[verse 2: black thought]
ayo, crazy frustration, about this whole situation
patience was a virtue, but i wasn’t used to waitin’
i want some marvin g-ye healin’, feelin’ is real inside
i’d love to try, my love would keep you occupied
i’d, love to deal with it like that, for my baby’s kitty cat
kept it locked, love boat is docked at the sh-r-
and what for? later for groupies on tour
why won’t my sugar call me no more?
i mean, my queen gets upset, rejectin’ and physically neglectin’
sayin’ i was too complex and closed-minded
it’s like i’m blinded by the skinnin’
i’m into women; because of that, this one’s into communication
temptation played the vandal, clippin’ my brain, my mind
strippin’ this handle from physically scandalous acts
yo! she knew what i wanted, but she fronted
check it out, one time for y’all mind, you know i wasn’t gonna say that whole part

[chorus]
girl, you know that you need to stop givin’ me the silent
treatment, baby
can’t you see what you mean to me?
i wanna love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
and treating me silently
if you know the joint, sing the chorus for me, right here, this part
girl, you know that you need to stop givin’ me the silent
say what, y’all
treatment, baby
can’t you see what you mean to me?
i wanna love you constantly, but you keep neglecting me
and treating me silently, silently

[outro: black thought]
put me on and just, one time, alright, alright, uh
hold that thought, we gon’ continue to travel
we gon’ continue to travel right about now, ya namsayin’?
y’all feelin’ that sh-t or what?
this sh-t is still going out, special dedication, ladies! ladies!
all the independent women in the house, make some noise and throw your hands up
if you out here having a good time tonight
that’s word, ya namsayin’, to the shorties that’s underage…
