Stick to the Rules
Love's Limits: Stick to the Rules with LeAndro Meeks
Lyrics
Listen up lady
Addressing a woman and grabbing her attention
I know you think you've made it
Acknowledging the woman's perceived success
Going around all over town driving my Mercedes
Accusing the woman of driving the speaker's Mercedes
I gotta little news for your ear
Teasing with upcoming news
That you won't be amused to hear
Implying the news may be unpleasant for her
You seem to have forgotten your place
Asserting that she has forgotten her place
So let me make things clear
Clarifying the speaker's intentions
I got a wife at home and she's a rock to my kids
Highlighting the speaker's commitment to his wife and kids
Disrespecting her zone is what I will not permit
Expressing zero tolerance for disrespect towards his wife
I'm never careless, that's why my sideshow is legendary
Boasting about legendary behavior in certain situations
I replace ringmasters who forget that they are secondary
Replacing those who forget their secondary roles
When it comes to my mate, I will not hesitate
Affirming quick action to protect his mate
To send you back to the days
Hinting at consequences by referencing past struggles
When you were eating from an empty plate
Emphasizing a humble background for the woman
Because oouu, what you're trying to do
Rejecting the woman's attempts to disrupt the relationship
Won't make me leave my boo
Reaffirming commitment to his partner
That's not cool
Labeling the woman's actions as uncool
And oouu, that little thing that you do
Advising against certain behavior
She can do it too
Asserting that his partner can match the woman's actions
So stick to the rules
Encouraging adherence to relationship rules
Now your mouth is poked out, and I know what you're thinking
Observing the woman's reaction and thoughts
If she ran such a great house, then why I am creeping
Questioning the woman's ability to maintain a successful household
There are many ways of devotion on which a man's love one depends
Exploring different ways men express love
You see girls are wired different, so I don't expect you to comprehend
Not expecting the woman to understand men's perspectives
But all you need to know, is that I ride for my folks
Emphasizing loyalty and protection towards family
I keep my enemies close, and female headaches get ghost
Keeping a distance from relationship troubles
So oouu, what you're trying to do
Rejecting the woman's attempts to get closer
Won't bring me closer to you
Asserting that certain actions won't influence him
No can do
Declining any possibility of getting closer
And oouu, those little things that you do
Highlighting the potential for new experiences
Can come from somebody new
Suggesting that someone new can replicate her actions
So stick to the rules
Reiterating the importance of following relationship rules
Golden rule number one, always keep it fun
Introducing the first golden rule of keeping it fun
Don't start singing that song, of how it hurts when he's gone
Warning against expressing emotional pain when he's away
That leads to rule number two, never expect him to move
Advising against expecting the man to change locations
You see the moment you do, that's when it's definitely a wrap for you
Stressing the potential end of the relationship if expectations rise
He seen it all before, the side piece wanting more
Recognizing the man's experience with extra relationships
Making moves premature, and using sex as a lure
Condemning premature moves and manipulation with sex
But oouu, what you're trying to do
Rejecting the woman's attempts to get closer to him
Won't bring him closer to you
Affirming the man's awareness and refusal to be fooled
He's no fool
Declaring the man's wisdom and avoidance of traps
And oouu, those little things that you do
Repeating the potential for new experiences from someone else
Can come from somebody new
Stressing the interchangeable nature of certain actions
So stick to the rules
Final emphasis on the importance of following relationship rules
