Verse 1 (Intellect):
Back in my days, I was jealous of another man
So I was like yo, shit I need another plan
To understand the importance of relationships
To love affectionately and make the best of it
But I remember she was breakin' my heart slow
She sound so sweet like she was playin' the harp though
Better than a summer scene, sweeter than the sweetest thing
Glow like the sun, cure like the medicine
I take my time to get to know you I don't speed up
Words can't explain so I let my pen bleed but
Is it wrong for me to say I like the way you did you hair
Used to be dominant, attitude like I don't care
To all my sisters stay strong and be thicker than glass
Matter of fact, can't get more vivid than that
I criticize my own self for my past actions
Love ain't for money, not for transactions
Hook x2 (Intellect & Jedi):
(Jedi):
Love ain't a game
(Intellect):
It could be full of pain
(Jedi):
Communication, being passionate
(Intellect):
Should never change
(Jedi):
We not complete
(Intellect):
If our hearts got a broken piece
(Jedi):
More than relationships
(Intellect & Jedi):
It's more than just being me
Verse 2 (Jedi):
I wasn't even steppin' in the name of love
Just got stepped on and didn't even know what's up
So much mistakes I committed that needs healing
Can't rewind to my past on how I was treatin'
Realize in the eyes of my selfish actions
We had a picture but without explaining the caption
A youngin' so sprung on girls like the pearls
Callin' her up on the phone so lost in this world
So much jealousy, fallin' off an edge of a cliff
Cheated so much, livin' the life the was too stiff
Not a bit, I hardly solvedf a conflict in an arguement
My love for her was twisted and so bent
I regret but really made it this far
Now replacing my mindstate and founded my heart
But that was my young days I wanted some fame
I need love like LL Cool J
Hook x2 (Intellect & Jedi):
(Jedi):
Love ain't a game
(Intellect):
It could be full of pain
(Jedi):
Communication, being passionate
(Intellect):
Should never change
(Jedi):
We not complete
(Intellect):
If our hearts got a broken piece
(Jedi):
More than relationships
(Intellect & Jedi):
It's more than just being me
