Claudine Lyrics

[Intro: Ghostface Killah, Method Man]
You ever feel that pain, when you lose someone
That's so much dear to your heart
Knowing that you'll never get those moments back
Wishing that you could bring 'em back
Just to hug 'em and just hold 'em
And kiss 'em one time
(Mathematics, Mathematics)

[Verse 1: Nicole Bus]
All this time, I forgot to see what’s real
Living in this pain kept my mind mute in violence
(You didn’t find love) (Unified love)
You think its fine to play with that what I have left?
It’s a cold world out there and I can’t take the silence
See all the things I’m going through
I don’t know why
But I know that you
Are herе with me
And that’s all that matters now
If I got you, oh, you got me, you'll see

[Chorus: Nicole Bus]
I got onе for the lovers, two for the ones we love
I know, I know, I know
We gotta keep it up, yeah
We’re not losing us
Three for the summers, four for the nights we cry
I know, I know
We keep trying
Keep fighting for our love
[Verse 2: Method Man]
I only love her when she mad at me
She mad scrappy, that make-up sex be mad nasty
Our heads be bumping like bad acne, it's sad actually
She turn her back to get back at me and backtrack me
But we happy, just take it back and don't backstab me
If that's my story, I'm sticking to it and I'm not tacky
If she the mama, I'll be the papi. No need to ask me
If she attracts me I blow her back and she need a nappy
In a fetal position like in the womb
You don't feel like giving out much? You'll be feeling it soon
Just assume another chick could never fit in your loubs
She's just trying to be the dish that runaway with the spoon
Now if we're going to clean house, gotta start with a room
One broom and knock it clean out, never start with a goon
Now, leave it up to boom, or we always start with a boom
I got time to day straigh up and we're starting at noon

[Chorus: Nicole Bus]
I got one for the lovers, two for the ones we love
I know, I know, I know
We gotta keep it up, yeah
We’re not losing us
Three for the summers, four for the nights we cry
I know, I know
We keep trying
Keep fighting for our love
[Verse 3: Ghostface Killah]
I reflect on the scriptures in old pictures
Staring at my mama in the kitchen doing dishes
Despite how she was living, who am I to judge?
But what I've learned? If your mama's alive, show her love
The pain that I experienced over through the fame
Carried me for nine months, she pushed, then I came
That's why the seed is so attracted to their mama on this plane
To never hear her voice again, it never be the same
When the death is fresh and feel like your soul is soaked in sadness
And you find yourself crying in the open
Her face was cold, she felt my tears in the casket
And every drop that fell on her cheek, I cried acid
Obituary, photos and flowers all in the cemetery
And cries just like the end of Cooley High
Mama, come back, we miss you
Come back for a couple of days so I can just hug you and kiss you

[Chorus: Nicole Bus]
I got one for the lovers, two for the ones we love
I know, I know, I know
We gotta keep it up, yeah
We’re not losing us
Three for the summers, four for the nights we cry
I know, I know
We keep trying
Keep fighting for our love
