You (Love Again) (lyrics)
DEEP VOICE
It wasn’t always so Christian clean
Let’s take it back to when my mind was playing tricks on me
Rap
I like everything, I’m like Boaz looking for my Ruth
I like a girl who not only knows truth but becomes living proof
That our savior lives, I like a girl that reads
Her bible, cookbooks, Christian books, whatever she needs
To get by, I say bye to the types I use to like
Because she’s not only pretty but also feeds my spiritual appetite
I like everything, I like the boldness of the heart on her shoulders
I like her singing in the choir, those velvet vocals take me over
I like her hair, short just like the Coffee Prince
She comes to my doorstep like she ain’t got no sense
She out there, I’m in here, so come in, sit in this chair
I like to flirt so I’ma cook you up some Savoir Faire
Debonair extraordinaire, like J.J. I like the flare
All-4-One by the moon we on tune, yes I swear
I like the way her lips taste, like a cake but not a devil
Devil cake is for the rebel, she’s an angel I’m a saint, no I ain’t lying
I like everything, at least I thought that was true
Then I realized I didn’t know what I liked ‘till I met YOU
CHORUS
I’ve been waiting on you/Oh how I need you
You make my skies so blue
No more shades of gray, you make my day dreams
Come true, I when I found you (I realized)
[I can love again]
Rap
This feeling that I’m feeling, I can’t describe
This feeling that I’m feeling, I can’t deny
Then a feeling that’s appealing comes in my life
That feeling that I’m feeling is just a lie
That feeling that I’m killing is justified
I want you, but that feeling is suicide
I want you, so that feeling has got to die
I want you, so I lust after the thought of having you
I want you to feel the same so my feelings won’t be misconstrued
Is that rude, is that too much to ask of you?
I want you, not just for your body, but your heart too
I want you, boo, I want you to be my boo, and I be your dude
But this wish becomes a myth the more I think about me and you
Together, our worlds are so different, so you won’t commit
We had to split ‘cause the idea of us being serious is an endangerment
So hope is depleting, I need a fix
And sin is all fun and games on the internet
And I want to stop the deed but not quite yet
And when my flesh is satisfied, I’m not impressed
I made my bed, but I don’t wanna lay in this mess
Now I’m stressed because the curse of Adam has my heart depressed
My defiance leaves me defiled, but grace paid my debt
And yet I still say I can’t regret
The day that I met YOU
CHORUS
Oh how I needed you
You made me feel brand new
No more shades of gray, you made my day dreams
Come true, but was it all a ruse? I’m confused
[How can I love again?]
Rap
I tried to make it work, but it was never meant to be
Never thought that you would ever try to change me
Rearrange me, why would you? Doesn’t make sense
I asked are you with me or nah? You were always on the fence
I thought relationship was suppose to not define but compliment
But every time I compliment you, you analyze and try to redefine
My compliment, it doesn’t make sense, I said what I meant
I’m very much a literal, there’s no point in subliminal
I’m bitter full of resentment, and plentiful is the spite
The word says we’re salt and light, but I’m just salty and not bright
My heart should be light like a feather but it’s heavy
I’m starting to think I wasn’t ready, for the day I met HER
‘Cause I met YOU
But I know better now...
