To B Honest

[Chorus: Jill Scott] I really would like to hold you Won't you please let me in? (Let me in) But I really would like to know you Let me be your friend I really would like to hold you Won't you please let me in? I really would like to know you (Yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah) Let me be your friend [Verse 1: Jill Scott] Ooh, baby, I get that it's hard times in every single neighborhood worldwide But you're holding on to something that ain't right, ain't right (Ain't right) Got your shoulders on too high Got your soul wound too tight Let me give you something good and right Let me give you something good and right [Chorus: Jill Scott] I really would like to hold you Won't you please let me in? (Won't you please) I really would like to know you (Mhm) Let me be your friend I really would like to hold you Won't you please let me in? (Won't you please, let me in) I really would like to know you (Let me know you, baby) Let me be your friend [Interlude: Jill Scott & JID] Aw, baby, it's crazy, crazy Whole world gone upside down and faded on hatred But me and you So much love to give So much work to do Come on and come on through (Um, look, uh) [Verse 2: JID] I met you in the breeze where the hummingbird sings In the summer through the mumbles of the birds and the bees And a bountiful blossom of beautiful flowers and trees, I could spend hours at ease Showered and powdered, the pollen is powerful Napkin in hand to prepare for a sneeze Parables, passages packed for the read I'm hoping you see I'm not, not what you need Knock when I enter the room, may I please share this space and energy? Time don't waste no memory No wine, no waste, no anything A line don't chase no symmetry Like science, I feel chemistry So I'm praying to a higher entity If it's meant to be and it's meant for me, can I really squeeze you? [Chorus: Jill Scott, JID & Both] I really would like to hold you Won't you please let me in? We should know each other (We should know each other) Let me be your friend [Bridge: Jill Scott & JID] (Them my friends, you might be my twin, them my friends, yeah) Everybody need a friend (You my twin, them my— them my friends, them my friends, yeah) Won't you let me in? (You my twin, you might be my friend, them my friends, yeah) I wanna know you, come on (Them my friends, you might be my twin, them my friends, yeah) Everybody need a friend (You my twin, uh) [Outro: Jill Scott] Everybody need a friend Everybody need a Babe Tell me what's going on I understand But that thing That ain't gon' stop us When beauty is the path The pebbles and the rocks fall aside (You handle just so much) But you don't have to do it alone (I'm right here) Oh, babe Oh, I Let me see your real side (Mhm)
