Keyshia Cole
Right Time
[Verse 1]
Boy, I’d give you one dollar
If you can guess the number in my head right now
I’ll give you a hint—ooh—it’s how chances you got left right now
And I’ll give you one more dollar
If you can guess what finger’s itchin’
Guess I’m going home two short
‘Cause you’re a two dollar type’a n***a
And you’s a two-timing type’a n***a

[Pre-Chorus]
She wasn’t bad—she wasn’t bad as me
No, she won’t—bet she won’t do that like me
Bet she don’t—think you don’t come back to me
You got me wrong—it’s too late

[Chorus]
It’s too late now and you’re already too deep
In your lies, and my mama told me
Oh, be careful when you lie
You might have to tell another lie covering lies up
It’s too late now and you’re already too deep
In your lies, and my mama told me
Oh, be careful when you lie
You might have to tell another lie covering lies up
You pick, you pick, you picked the right time
You pick, you picked the right time
You pick, you picked the right time of the wrong one

[Verse 2]
I would give you a penny for your thoughts
But your two cents ain’t worth shit
And I already paid the cost
For these lies you can’t afford to fix

They say the heart has to open to break
And here you are standing right in my face
And you can’t even find the right words to say
“Oh, is it hurt? Is shorty sick?” It’s too late

[Pre-Chorus]
She wasn’t bad—she wasn’t bad as me
No, she won’t—bet she won’t do that like me
Bet she don’t—think you don’t come back to me
You got me wrong—it’s too late

[Chorus]
It’s too late now and you’re already too deep
In your lies, and my mama told me
Oh, be careful when you lie
You might have to tell another lie covering lies up
It’s too late now and you’re already too deep
In your lies, and my mama told me
Oh, be careful when you lie
You might have to tell another lie covering lies up
You pick, you pick, you picked the right time
You pick, you picked the right time
You pick, you picked the right time but the wrong one
Wrong one
You pick, you pick, you picked the right time (The right time)
You pick, you picked the right time (The right time)
You pick, you picked the right time but the wrong one
(It’s too late)

[Outro]
Now it’s too late, now it’s too late (Too late)
In too deep, in too deep (Mama told me...ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Too late
Now it’s too late, now it’s too late (Too deep)
In too deep, in too deep (Too, too, too deep...)
(Mama told me...ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
