Story Behind The Song
The story started in Milwaukee at a wedding I was invited to. During the wedding, in the church I saw a lady sitting in the peers which took control of me and my emotions when I looked into her eyes. I thought I'd never see her again but I met her at the reception later that evening. We talked, went to a club and I fell deep into her world of captivity. I visited her in Chicago frequently. In the end it was all about the money. She had so many problems and little respect for others feelings

Lyrics
[Verse One]
Your promises are shallow , and even when you decide
Will it change tomorrow, like the clouds in the sky
Will it bring some sorrow, like a big pack of lies
It ain?t easy baby, it ain?t easy baby, tryin to lose the pain
It ain?t easy, when you?re living in pieces baby
It ain?t easy baby, tryin to hide the rain
It ain?t easy, it ain?t freakin easy baby, you know the reason baby
Had me believing baby, we were meant to be but baby
Another fantasy now baby, another mystery now baby
You don?t make it easy baby, I?m barely breathing baby
It ain?t freakin easy baby
[Chorus]
No more just wasting my time
No more than wasting my time (BGVocal)
Move to the back of the line
Eeeoooeeeooo (BG)
No more just playing my mind
No more than playing my mind (BG)
Move to the back of the line
Eeeoooeeeooo
Eeeoooeeeooo Eeeooeeeeoooo (BG)
[Verse Two-Rap]
You been telling me this, telling me that, tell me where my money went
Telling me this, telling me that, tell me that you?re in my debt
Telling me this, telling me that, what about the hickie on your neck
Telling me this, telling me that, tell me where your ass was at
[Chorus]
No more just wasting my time
No more than wasting my time (BGVocal)
Move to the back of the line
Eeeoooeeeooo (BG)
No more just playing my mind
No more than playing my mind (BG)
Move to the back of the line
Eeeoooeeeooo
Eeeoooeeeooo Eeeooeeeeoooo (BG)
[Verse Three]
It ain?t freakin easy baby, you know the reason baby
Had me believing baby, we were meant to be but baby
Another fantasy now baby, another mystery now baby
You don?t make it easy baby, I?m barely breathing baby
It ain?t freakin easy baby
[Chorus]
No more just wasting my time
No more than wasting my time (BGVocal)
Move to the back of the line
Eeeoooeeeooo (BG)
No more just playing my mind
No more than playing my mind (BG)
Move to the back of the line
Eeeoooeeeooo
Eeeoooeeeooo Eeeooeeeeoooo (BG)
[Verse Four]
Do what you do now baby, you made the rule now baby
Took me to school now baby, do what you do now baby
Do what you do baby baby (BG)
Do what you do now baby, nothing to lose now baby
You know it?s true now baby, do what you do now baby
You know it?s true baby baby (BG)
Do what you do now baby, don?t look confused now baby
Don?t look confused baby baby (BG)
You broke the rule now baby, do what you do now baby
Do what you do baby baby (BG)
Do what you do now baby, you made the move now baby
Now who?s the fool now baby. No more just wasting my time.
