This song was my life at the time it came out. I was married to a good guy deep in the streets!!!! I tried and tried to get him to leave that life alone. I had money, diamonds, and cars but was living in a constant state of worry!!!! But I loved him strong!!!! Thank God for growth. Although we eventually divorced he managed to turn his life around for the sake of our baby girl!!! Thank you Erykah for singing me through one of the roughest times in life!!!

I know many insecure girls and women. I was one of many. However, today 25/01/2020 I can say... l am a proud African Wombman, authentically ME! Self-Love is where I AM @.

What I absolutely adore about this is how the most mundane things are elevated and we are invited to glimpse at life's simple yet beautiful moments like her wiping her face, a random kiss here, Andre opening the windows, her cutting a grapefruit/orange, Andre accidentally leaving the tap open 3:22 and so on. There is no studio budget that can buy that level of genius.

Marvin Paul right!! I caught the Lauren & 3000 look at the end. Just a quick question, who do u think influenced who 3000 influenced her or vice versa? Maybe their style was the same before knowing of each other, either way I think it’s dope. I just find things like that interesting, for instance, my gf was nvr into tennis shoes but after being w/ me for so long she kinda goes for the same look as me. She’s from outside of the city too so now the slang we use, she has picked up on from hearing me so much. To me, she’s a great budgeter & that’s the main thing I follow😂 Long story, less long i find it interesting how we imitate those we are around. Especially those we love & admire. An interesting tid bid to my question, I heard she had a few artist “whipped” & I wanna figure out the lore to her attraction. Besides looking like today’s cleopatra

Witchcraft, her music puts people under a spell. Andre 3000, her baby daddy, and the guy in the video once said "I met a gypsy", he was talking about her.

Call me strange but I only came here to hear her sing this verse: ♫ He gave me the life that I came to live. He gave me the song that I came to give. Pressure's on me but the seed has grown. I can't make it on my own. Summer came around and the flowers bloomed. He became the sun I became the moon. Precious gifts that we both received Or could this be make believe♫

If you are referring to the video, it's not really beautiful and simple. The lyrics are "what we gonna do when they come for you (the cops)" so they can't really sustain that lifestyle which I assume is from illegal gains. It's the other side of "The game." Looks like their life is nice but there's no security or peace of mind because the cops can show up any time.

She contradicts herself throughout this song. She likes the money and the lifestyle, but doesn't like how he gets it. She's saying the ends justify the means, but she's still criticizing the means. You gotta pick a side. Can't straddle the fence. That's why women are full of it. If he had a good, honest job, but stayed broke, she'd have a problem. Here he has a dangerous, illegal job, but the chips are stacking and she still has a problem. Foh.
