Intro:
What you mean "you done with me"? Haha
Yea. You forreal?
You finished? Crazy.
We'll see bout that
Oh, we'll see
Verse:
I be killin it
I'm ill and legit
Whoever say I'm illegit
Don't say that when they hear my bliss
And Christians say I'm nemesis
Go look at genesis, but who cares? (Who cares)
I'm friend with benefits innocent
I ca-I can get you right
Me and my homie
Endorphins are airtight
Pleasure's what I swear by
My one code is there's no code
Do what thou will, just for the thrill, give it a go
Don't let nobody hold you
So what you need with a God?
You made it this far
Who is He to call the shot? (Oh I'm goin too far)
But did He really say I'm no good for you?
Then why I'm so good to you?
Forbidden me, He shouldn't do
Hook:
It's a shame that I can't say
That I know you, when I known you forever (You do know me)
When I know you forever (C'mon man)
Mr. Pretender (C'mon) Mr. Pretender
Thought I know you, but I didn't
And even though we finished (We're never finished)
Can't believe you have me livin in your fantasy
Mr. Pretender
Verse:
I was tryin to satisfy ya
Deify ya
You do what you think is right
You feed a God, you bout to
I can take you higher
And those Christians are liars
River in Egypt, they in Denial [The Nile]
You remember you felt better?
I know, after was guilty, dirty, and real pressure
But that was real pleasure
I'm here when it gets rough
I got a website that'll get you fixed up or blood that'll make you lift up
Of course I told him he should go divorce her
He's a man
How he go'n be faithful to one girl? (One girl)
And he knows it'll cost him his life in ministry
But I make him think it's worth one night gettin into the sheets
I'ma beast
You can be a Christian and live in me
God can have the public, but in private it'll be him and me
We need liquor, need strippers
Homie ride or die
Go put that bullet in that magazine and make him cry
Hook:
Mr. Pretender, Mr. Pretender (What you mean?)
Thought I know you, but I didn't (This is fo' yo good) and even though we're finished
Can't believe you have me livin in your fantasy
Mr. Pretender (Don't you wanna be happy?), Mr. Pretender
Thought I know you, but I didn't (Whatever then)
And even though we finished (I got a whole world lookin at me man)
Can't believe you have me livin in your fantasy
Verse:
So what I mighta lied a lil' (So?)
Hear my good friend that kills
But don't act like you didn't know (You can't stop)
You love the way I make you feel
You know the deal
Look, I got wages, a paycheck
For instance, you thought you was havin safe sex
I promote latex (Do it)
Get you a wrapper dawg
But a condom can't protect you from the wrath of God
I had the world deceived
Then came Jesus
Thought I'd bean Him, but on the cross I was defeated
Imagine that
He deceived the deceiver
Left me on the ground bleedin, while He lead slaves to freedom
Hook:
It's a shame, that I can't say (I won't tell you that dawg)
Thought I know you, when I known you forever
When I know you forever (Hold on, I'm dyin)
Mr. Pretender (But I ain't dead yet), Mr. Pretender (Though you might be dead to me)
Thought I knew you, but I didn't (Forget Jesus) and even though we're finished (Join me in Hell)
Can't believe you have me livin in your fantasy
Mr. Pretender, Mr. Pretender
Thought I know you, but I didn't
And even though we finished
Can't believe you have me livin in your fantasy (I am the deceitfulness of sin)
