What It Is, Not What It Was Lyrics by Bari Bandz

Letter to the Bitches

2025

[Chorus]
I seen them pretty ass eyes and I was locked in
You wasn't tripping off that bitch, you was just all in
It's something about your vibe, it was top ten
Man, it's something about that pussy got me all in
[Verse]
It's your stature, it's your smiles, how you look at me
Teach a nigga how to love, it's the thug in me
Every time you in your feelings, you always provoking me
I ain't trying to lead you on, but it's the chemistry
I know I cheated a couple times, I know I fucked up
Yeah, I took this shit for granted, but I lucked up
Yeah, I lacked communication when it was brought up
You stayed solid with me when your heart was tore up
She always answered all my calls, even on bad terms
Seen the message in my phone, damn, I know it hurt
She asked me why I did it, I ain't had no words
She took it for what it is, not for what it was
Baby, it's the price you paid, fucking with a thug
I was taught my whole life never show no love
Every time I show affection you just hold a grudge
When I was down bad you the one that picked me up
[Chorus]
I seen them pretty ass eyes and I was locked in
You wasn't tripping off that bitch, you was just all in
It's something about your vibe, it was top ten
Man, it's something about that pussy got me all in
[Verse]
Anytime I express myself, you know I hit the booth
Only place that don't judge and I can speak the truth
When we on good terms it's just me and you
Dolce & Gabbana lens, you gotta see it through
I see you took the time to actually do your makeup
Face card bussin and that ass looking caked up
FaceTime, your homegirls told me don't wait up
2 a.m. You bang a nigga line, talkin' bout wake up
