"Ego" lyrics

[Wanya Morris:]
Hey, man
You know, sometimes you've just got to listen to yourself
Or not listen to yourself
That's how it is
As you get a little older you start realizing things
Realize it's your ego
It's your ego that's your enemy, you know?
That's the only thing that can stop you, is your ego
Hey, it's crazy man, but we got you, so listen

[Shawn Stockman, (Wanya Morris):]
My ego had me doing things that I thought I'd never do
(Thought I'd never do)
Like being with another shorty when I was with you
(When I was with you)
Unnecessary shopping sprees for things I didn't need (Uh)
Maybe it was a little necessary
But looking back, it was greed
Big chains, big cars, big chips
More things, more girls, long trips
Maybe if I would've thought of it
I would have had a chance to enjoy it now

[Boyz II Men:]
But now I know it was just my ego

My ego was my enemy
I thought it was a friend to me
But it was a curse to me
'Cause it brought out the worst in me
My ego was my enemy (Enemy)
I thought it was a friend to me (Friend to me)
But it was a curse to me (Curse to me)
It brought out the worst in me

[Wanya Morris:]
I was ballin' like a man when I was a boy
Livin' every man's dreams
(Livin' every man's dreams)
Spending mad time at the strip club, too much cream
(Dollar, dollar bills, y'all)
Nobody couldn't tell me nothin' 'cause I was feeling myself
(Feeling myself)
Same thing almost cost me my whole life, and all of my wealth
Chicks came and went, I stayed (I stayed)
G'd up 'cause I was paid ('Cause I was paid)
Damn all those games I played
Hey, what more can I say? But now

[Boyz II Men:]
But now I know it was just my ego

[Boyz II Men, {Wanya Morris}:]
My ego was my enemy
I thought it was a friend to me
But it was a curse to me
'Cause it brought out the worst in me {My ego}
My ego was my enemy (Enemy)
I thought it was a friend to me (Friend to me)
But it was a curse to me (Curse to me)
It brought out the worst in me

[Boyz II Men:]
If I could turn back the hands of time
I wouldn't change a thing
'Cause it made me the man I am today

[Boyz II Men, {Wanya Morris}:]
{My ego} My ego was my enemy {Was my enemy}
I thought it was a friend to me {Oh, ooh}
But it was a curse to me
'Cause it brought out the worst in me
My ego was my enemy {Was my enemy}
I thought it was a friend to me
But it was a curse to me {But it was a curse to me}
It brought out the worst in me {Oh, ooh}
My ego was my enemy (Enemy)
I thought it was a friend to me (Friend to me)
But it was a curse to me (Curse to me)
'Cause it brought out the worst in me
My ego was my enemy (Enemy)
I thought it was a friend to me (Friend to me)
But it was a curse to me (Curse to me)
It brought out the worst in me {Oh, ooh ooh}
