Trapped In the Closet (Chapters 1-5)

Seven o'clock in the mornin' and the rays from the sun wakes me

I'm stretchin' and yawnin' in a bed that don't belong to me

And a voice yells, "Good mornin', darlin'," from the bathroom

And she comes out and kisses me and to my surprise she ain't you

Now I've got this dumb look on my face like what have I done?

How can I be so stupid to be have laid here till the mornin' sun?

Must have lost the track of time

Oh, what was on my mind? '

From the club, went to her home

Didn't plan to stay that long

Here I am, quickly tryin' to put on my clothes

Searchin' for my car keys

Tryin' to get on up out the door

Then she stretched her hands in front of it

Said, "You can't go this way"

Looked at her like she was crazy

I said, "Woman, move out my way"

I said, "I got a wife at home

She said, "Please don't go out there

Lady, I've got to get home

She said her husband was comin' up the stairs

Sh, sh, quiet

Hurry up and get in the closet

She said, don't you make a sound

Or some shit is goin' down

I said, "Why don't I just go out the window

Yes, except for one thing, we on the fifth floor

Shit, think, shit, think, shit, quick, put in the closet

And now I'm in this darkest closet, tryin' to figure out

Just how I'm gonna get my crazy ass up out this house

Then he walks in and yells, I'm home

She says, honey, I'm in the room

He walks in there with a smile on his face

Sayin', Honey, I've been missin' you

She hops all over him and says, I've cooked and ran your bathwater

Tellin' you now, this girls so good, that she deserves an Oscar

Throws her in the bed and start to snatchin' her clothes off

I'm in the closet like, man, what the **** is goin' on?

You're not gonna believe it, but things get deeper as the story goes on

Next thing you know, a call comes through on my cell phone

I tried my best to quickly put it on vibrate

But from the way he act, I could tell it was too late

He hopped up and said, there's a mystery goin' on

And I'm gonna solve it

And I'm like, God, please don't let this man open this closet

He walks in the bathroom and looks behind the door

She says, "Baby, come back to bed"

He says, "Bitch, say no more"

He pulls back the shower curtain while she's bitin' her nails

Then he walks back to the room

Right now I'm sweatin' like Hell

Checks under the bed

Then opens dresser

He looks at the closet

I pull out my Beretta

He walks up to the closet

Get closer to the closet

Now he's at the closet

Now he's openin' the closet

Well

Now he's starin' at me like as if he was starin' in the mirror

She yells, "Honey, let me explain"

He says, "You don't have to go no further

I can clearly see what's goin' on

Behind my back, in my bed, in my home"

Then I said, "Wait a minute, now hold on"

I said, "Mister, we can work this out"

She said, "Honey, don't lose control"

I tried to get him to calm down

He said, "Ho, I should have known

That you would go and do some bogus shit up in my house

But the Christian in me gave you the benefit of the doubt"

I said, "We need to resolve this"

Then he stepped to me, I'm like, "Whoa

There's a reason I'm in this closet"

He says, "Yeah, what, are you talkin' clothes?"

I met this girl at the Paje's club

And she told me she didn't have a man

Then he said, "Man, please

I'd kill you if you didn't have that gun in your hand"

And then I said, "But your chick chose me"

He said, "Don't give me that mack shit, please

His phone goes off and then things get a little more interestin'

He steps a little closer

I point my gun and says, "I'm not the one you after"

He says, "Somethin' I bet you didn't know, my man

Did she tell you that I was a pastor?"

I said, "Well, good, that's better right

Why can't we handle this Christian like?"

And I started to put down the gun down

Till I saw his face still had a frown

She started cryin', sayin', "Baby, I'm sorry"

Then he said, "Baby, not at sorry as you're gonna be"

I started inchin' out

He says, "No, I want you to see this"

Said, "I've gotta get out this house"

Said, "Not till I reveal my secret"

I'm like, "What is goin' on inside his head?"

Then he takes his phone and calls somebody up and says

"Hello" (Hello)

"Baby" (Uh-huh)

"Turn the car around"

(What's goin' on over there?)

"Listen, I just need for you to get right back here now"

Click, he looks at me and says, "Well, since we're comin' out the closet

I'm not about to be the only one that's brokenhearted"

And she said, "What do you mean?"

And he said, "Just wait and see"

I said, "Somebody better talk to me"

And then his phone ring

He picks up and somebody says, "Sweetheart, I'm downstairs"

And he's like, "I'll buzz you up

I'm on the fifth floor

Hurry, take the stairs"

And I'm like, "Who is this mystery lady

That you're talkin' to?"

He says, "In time you both will know the shockin' truth

"Baby, this is somethin' I've been wantin' to get off my chest

For a long, long time"

Then I said, "****, I'ma shoot you both

If you don't say what's on your mind"

He said,"Wait, I hear somebody comin' up the stairs"

And I'm lookin' at the door

He says, "I think you better sit down in a chair"

I says, "I'm gonna count to four"

One, he says, "Mister, wait"

Two, she says, "Please don't shoot"

Three, he says, "Don't shoot me"

Four, she screams

Then a knock on the door

The gun's in my hand

He opens the door

I can't believe it's a man

Well, here we are the four of us

In total shock, me and her

I closed my mouth and swallowed spit

As I'm thinkin' to myself, "This is some deep shit"

And I said, "So you're gonna tell me

He's the one you been talkin' to?"

He says, "Yes," I says, "No"

He says, "Yes," I says, "No"

He says, "It's the truth"

I yell, "All of y'all ass is crazy

Let me up out this door"

Because this is way more than I bargained for"

And then she says, "Wait, I'm sure we can all fix this"

And then I said, "I'm late, plus I ain't got a damn thing to do with this"

And then she said, "But wouldn't you like to know just how it all began?"

Then I thought to myself, then said, "Quick you got three minutes"

And then it got real quiet

I said, "Somebody start talkin'"

Then she said, "My God, Rufus

I've got just one question

How could you do somethin' like this, I'm so hurt"

Then he looked at her and said, Bitch, please you've got your nerves

With all your club hoppin'

Lyin', sayin' you was shoppin'

And now here you are in our home

And you're callin' me wrong"

She said, "Okay, you busted me

And that much I agree

You've caught me cheatin'

But this is a little extreme

He said, "You are my wife sleepin' behind my back

And now I come home and you got him in the closet

How extreme is that?"

She says, "But she's a he"

Then he said, "Please, you can't judge me"

She said, "Rufus, this is crazy"

Then I said, "Stop arguin'

I did not stay here to here y'all chew each other out

So, get to the point

Or I swear I'm out"

Excuse me please

But I think I can explain what's goin' on in here

My name is Chuck and I've been knowin' Rufus 'bout a year

At midnight creepin' around with him has been a livin' hell

Sneakin' in and out of hotels

I said, "Brother, spare the details"

The Rufus said, "Chuck please, don't say nothin' else"

And then she screams, "Rufus, you son of a bitch"

And says, "Cathy, go to hell"

I said, "I thought you said your name was Mary

That's what you said at the party

Man, this is gettin' scary

I'm gonna shoot somebody

Then Rufus starts yellin' and screamin'

Sayin', "Cathy, this is all your fault"

She throws a pillow at him and says, "You was creepin' too

The only difference is you didn't get caught"

Chuck screamed out, "We're in love"

Cathy says, "Love my ass"

Rufus said, "They're gettin' married"

Then I shoot one in the air

And I say, "Not another one of you sons of bitches say a word

'Cause all of this shit I'm goin' through is unheard"

Grabbed my cellular

Sayin', "This is so wrong"

Call up my home

And a man picks up the phone

Now I'm dashin' home

Doin' eighty five

Swervin' lane to lane

With fire in my eyes

I've got a million thoughts

Goin' through my mind

I'm thinkin' about what I'ma do

And who I'm gonna do it to when I get home

How could I have been so blind

And then I look in my rear view

I cannot believe this

Woo, woo, woo

Damn, here comes the policeman

He drove right up on me and flashed his lights

Then I pulled over without thinkin' twice

He hops out the car and walked over to me

And says, "License and registration please"

I looked up at him and said, "Officer, is there somethin' wrong?"

He said, "No, except you was doin' sixty in a forty mile zone"

And then I said, "Officer, let me explain please

You see, the truth of the matter is

Is that I've got an emergency"

He said, "No excuses and no exceptions"

He flicks his cigarette

And then gives me the ticket

Said, "Have a nice day" and walked away

I said, "Yeah, right, and drove away"

And then I turn my radio on

And did fifty five all the way home

I pull up in the driveway

Hop out and slam the car door

Then go around the back

Bust up in the house

And she screamin', "What's all that for?"

And I'm like, "Woman, I called this house

And a man picked up my phone

The she says, "Calm down, did you forget my brother

'Twan came home"

Oh

And that's all I could say was, "Oh"

With a stupid look on my face

Said, "I forgot he came home today"

And she says, "that's okay

Because, honey, I understand

She said, you don't have to explain

Then I took her by the hand

I kissed her and then we went to the room

Then I turned some music on

Apologized one more time

Then went down and start gettin' it on

And she started bitin' her lips

Grabbin' me and makin' noise

Now we makin' love and she's in my ear whisperin'

"It's all yours"

I said, "I love you"

She said, "I love you too"

And a tear up out my eye

And then I called her my sunshine

And then she looked at me

And said, "Baby, go deeper please"

And then I start goin' crazy

Like I was tyin' to give her a baby

The room feel like it's spinnin'

'Cause we keep turnin' and turnin'

As if we were in a whirlwind

The way our toes are curlin'

Then next thing you know she start goin' real wild

And screamin' my name

And then I said, "Baby, we must slow down

Before I bust a vessel in my brain

She said, "Please, no, don't stop"

And I said, "I caught a cramp"

Then she said, "Please, keep on goin'"

I said, "My leg is about to crack"

She she cries out

"Oh, my goodness, I'm about to climax"

And I said, "Cool, climax and just let go of my leg"

She says, "You're the perfect lover"

I said, "I can't go no further"

Then I flip back the cover

Oh, my God, a rubber

And now I'm like, "Well, well, well, what the **** is this?

A condom in my bed

You better start talkin', **** bitch

Before I take a match and burn this motherf**** down"

I said, "You better start talkin'

And start talkin' right goddamn now

Then she said, "Baby, I'm so speechless"

Then I said, "My baby, you gon' be breathless

If you don't start talkin' quick

Woman, I'm gon' have a fit

You don't know what you're **** with

Girl, you better cut the bulls***

Now, it's obvious somebody has been all up in my home

In my bed and plus I smell cigarettes"

Now I'm sniffin' and lookin' around

Suspicious like someone's here

And then I looked in her eyes

And in her eyes there was so much fear

Pull out my gun, said, "Is he still here?"

She shook her head and said, "No"

I'm checkin' behind eery door

She cried out, "He left right after you called"

I said, "What the **** was you thinkin'?

You thought that I wouldn't find this out?"

And then I said, "You must be crazy or on crack

To have somebody off up in my motherf****n' house

She hopped up and said, "That's enough"

She said, "I can't take no more"

And then she said, "You've made your point

But now it's time to even the score"

She said, "I know all about last night

Where you went when you left the club

Said, "That's right, ****, I was there

With this guy in the back of the club"

I said, I thought you was with your girls"

She said, "I thought you was with your guys"

She said, "You was at that bitch's house

And don't you even try to act surprised

I say, "Babe," she said, "Shut up, don't you say a word"

It ain't nothin' you can say

That I ain't already heard

Then I said, "Woman don't you try to turn it all around

'Cause the fact still remains that someone else was in my house"

Then she said, "You're right about that

Somethin' did go down

But I don't have to turn it around

'Cause what goes around comes back around"

I'm movin' a little closer to her

She's trippin' over the furniture

She said, "Wait first just let me explain"

I said, "No need to just give me his name

And then she says, "Uh, uh"

I say, "Uh, what?"

She says, "Please sit down in a chair"

And I say, "No, I'm standin' up"

And then she cries out, "I'm so scared to tell you

Because of what you might do

And I scream, "Look girl, you better give me this man's name

And I'm not playin' with you"

She says, "Okay"

Wipes her noes and then asks me about a girl named Tina

I thought to myself, said it sounds familiar

Then said, "I probably know her if I seen her"

Then I said, "Anyway, girl

What the hell has that got to do with this man?"

She said, "He know my girl Roxanne"

I said, "Who the hell is Roxanne?"

Then she said, "Roxanne's a friend of mine

Who know this guy named Chuck

Chuck's cool with this guy Rufus

And I'm sittin' there like, what the fuck?

And she says, "Rufus wife Cathy, we both went to high school

She introduced me to the policeman that stopped you"
