What You Want Lyrics

Tell me what you want (oh)
Tell me what you want (oh-oh)
Just tell me what you want (oh)
Tell me what you want (oh-oh)
Tell me what you want (oh)
Tell me what you want (oh-oh)

Tell me what you want from me
Take a look at what you see
Let me know if this right here
Is something you can have for years
Tell me what you want from me
Take a look at what you see
Let me know if this right here
Is something you can have for years

Now Mase be the man wanna see you doin' good
I don't wanna get rich, leave you in the hood
Girl, in my eyes you the baddest
The reason why I love you, you don't like me 'cause my status
I don't wanna see you with a carriage, living average
I wanna do my thing so we be established
And I don't want you rockin' them fabrics
Girl, I wanna give you karats 'til you feel you a rabbit
Anything in your path, want, you can have
Walk through the mall, if you like it, you could grab
Total it all up and put it on my tab
And then tell your friends all the fun you had

Tell me what you want from me (tell)
Take a look at what you see (tell me what you want)
Let me know if this right here (right here)
Is something you can have for years (have for year)
Tell me what you want from me (tell me what you want)
Take a look at what you see (you see)
Let me know if this right here
Is something you can have for years

Hey mama, why don't you come here to papa?
You don't like the way your tata's lookin at shada?
In a 600 ain't no smokin' cigada
Come over here I think I see your baby fadda
Here go the number to my casa
If you in a rush you call me mañana
Whatever you need girlfriend I got the whole enchilada
Just the way you like it Mase gonna do you propa
Girl, I can tell you was meant for me
I can tell by the way you was sent to me
While I'm on tour tryna make them centuries
And they ask who your man, you better mention me
If you don't, you know you got a problem
Said you want no beef girlfriend don't start none
And it just so happens that I'm seeing cash
'Cause you messed up a lot just trying to be fast
And I ain't gonna ask who smashed the E-class
Pull up to the 'rib with the whole front crashed
Now you wanna laugh, good thing that's the past
If you ever lie again, girl that'll be your last

Tell me what you want from me (tell me what you want, boy)
Take a look at what you see (take a look at me)
Let me know if this right here (ooh)
Is something you can have for years (gotta let me know)
Tell me what you want from me
Take a look at what you see (is it something you can have)
Let me know if this right here
Is something you can have for years

Now the more you treat me royal I adore you
That's why I don't mind doing these things for you (for you)
You did things for me I wouldn't believe you did
That's why I always wanna keep you here
In a year or two, girl, I could see you with my kids
Girl, you make a thug wanna get a legal gig
It's only right we spend our lonely nights
Gettin' crazy biz' 'til we awake the kids
Don't get too loud, got respect for you honey
But keep it all real you come second to my money
And can you be my ghetto love prophecy? (Yeah)
Everybody love you girl, not just me (yeah, yeah, yeah)
And I know you that really care a lot for me
Wanna see you happy even if it's not with me
Hey, hey (ooh)
Even if you're not with me

Tell me what you want from me
Take a look at what you see
Let me know if this right here
Is something you can have for years (something you can have)
Tell me what you want from me (for years)
Take a look at what you see
Let me know if this right here (ooh)
Is something you can have for years (for years)

Tell me what you want from me (want from me)
Take a look at what you see (yeah)
Let me know if this right here (is this what you want from me?)
Is something you can have for years
Tell me what you want from me
