Never Been in Love

[Intro]
You know (Just Blaze)
One of those beautiful things in life is when a boy finds the girl he loves (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And in his mind, some of the things he wants to do for that girl are almost impossible (Kweli, uh-huh, uh-huh)
You see, girl, I've never been in love before
But God knows, I truly—

[Verse 1]
I know there's a first time for everything
First time I let her in my bed, she got wetter than the perfect storm that we weathering together and
This the first time that I've ever considered wedding rings
But first things first, yo, met her at the bar
Rolling with three wise men like I followed the star (There she is)
Shorty bicoastal, thick like bifocals
Stacked like 2Pac vocals, her body so loco
Jewel of the Nile, so I'm romancing the stone
The rhythm is in the words, I watch her dance to my poems
The way she move them hips let me know in advance that she grown
I pictured it like Paris Hilton when she answered the phone
Yo, dancin' alone 'cause she extra fly
But I got a good look, so I catch her eye
Gave the rest a try, now give the best a try
Leave your nest to fly, I'll make you testify
Damn, baby

[Chorus]
I know we got some haters and
I don't care what people say
As long as you and me okay
'Cause I never been in love before
See, I used to be a player and
All of this is new to me
And this ain't what I'm used to seeing
'Cause I never been in love before

[Verse 2]
You running back to the kid like this was home base
Or a marathon, I let you set your own pace
Your own space and the beautiful struggle
Now baby, tell what it's gon' take to prove that I love you
When I'm gone, you be missing me too
It let me know that my prayers is the music God be listening to
Don't get it confused, I'm tryin' to get religious with you
I never thought I'd feel like this, it's like a miracle, you
You stole my heart like a crook in love
Crossin' the bridge to the Brooklyn love
When I look above, it's clear skies that's surrounding my earth
Your love is drugs and I'm down to serve, let's deal with it, yo
We go to the spot and you still get it low
I get excited fast and still love to hit it slow
'Til your walls come tumblin' down like Jericho
And you hear the sound is stereo
Here we go

[Interlude]
Listen, girl
Every time I think I've got my day up tight (Yeah)
There's always something wrong (Let's go)
Dig, baby

[Chorus]
I know we got some haters and
I don't care what people say
As long as you and me okay
'Cause I never been in love before
See, I used to be a player and
All of this is new to me
And this ain't what I'm used to seeing
'Cause I never been in love before

[Verse 3]
You looked good when I tried you on, so I had to write a song
Used to be the guy that always made her cry when I'm gone
Always kept a stable and would never spent a night alone
No cable or no hard line phone, why? I'm never home
Scared of commitment, ready to forever roam
We at war like Sister Souljah and she welcome to my terror dome
Head strong, our connection proved them haters dead wrong
From now to R.I.P. proceed my name up on the headstone
Leave her be for five minutes, dudes try to dive in it
First they wanna spit on my name and tarnish my image
I tell them, "Do you," I don't care who she speaking with
'Cause I already know she made it clear who she leaving with
Yeah, and it feels so beautiful
Put it in a rhyme 'cause it feels so musical
Plus you ain't no groupie ho sittin' in the studio
Before we do this though, there's somethin' that you should know

[Chorus]
I know we got some haters and
I don't care what people say
As long as you and me okay
'Cause I never been in love before
See, I used to be a player and
All of this is new to me
And this ain't what I'm used to seeing
'Cause I never been in love before
I know we got some haters and
I don't care what people say
As long as you and me okay
'Cause I never been in love before
See, I used to be a player and
All of this is new to me
And this ain't what I'm used to seeing
'Cause I never been in love before
I know we got some haters and
I don't care what people say
As long as you and me okay
'Cause I never been in love before
See, I used to be a player and
All of this is new to me
And this ain't what I'm used to seeing
'Cause I never been in love before

[Outro]
