Intro (whisper)
I’m caught up in this love affair
I never knew within my lifetime I could be so weak for it It became my lifeline
One two - you don’t stop
From the moment that we first met you became my heartbeat always by my side in the Chi in dem cold streets even in the snow we were heat but the hours in that basement on Perry was like retreat no retweets no tik tok no IG no Facebook no cell phones no id no why me cause we knew just us two so after “e” after “t” F U it’s only us every ride on the bus laying close to my ear hearing you is a must every dollar spent on you like In God We Trust I talked so much about you friends called it a crush my attitude was gratitude a perfect connection we mirrored each other’s energy a perfect reflection always knew how to find you never lost the direction necessary disconnection led to our resurrection it’s hard to shake a first love it’s so much history it’s easy to double back cause it ain’t no mystery you have no clue the voodoo that you do pushed through lord have mercy beaucoup

One two - you don’t stop
Three four – we gon rock
I sit alone at this altar a grown man thinking all the jokes bout us married I can’t stand you’re not a wife you’re not a friend you’re not designed to be loyal you for the streets you for whoever will spoil you a hard lesson the truth harder to swallow now that I know it’s better days tomorrow no sorry I had to feel that to know it’s real one thing about a Libra once we know we chill so I chilled out peep the scene saw how you move I’m Fuschnick La Schmoove with nothing to prove retaliation and get back is not my persona but I’ve been cooking up a dish you can smell the aroma he bounced back like Sean and Metro
On A-Wax the fact is Ice-Gre got snaps on the petrol and you can bet your bottom dollar I don’t slip up twice won’t gamble my paradise without a pair of dice say hello to the new me my old friend it’s love always knew I’d see you again
