Build You Up

[Intro: Jamie Foxx & 50 Cent]

La la la… Yeah!

La la la la la la la la… Uh huh

Ooh I’d lie for you baby

Ooh I’d die for you baby

I like the way that feel

[Pre-Verse: 50 Cent]

I’ll build you, but if ever I fall down

And I need you to pick me up

Promise me, you’ll be around

Hold me down, I’ll build you up

[Verse 1: 50 Cent]

Listen, if you let me, I’ll be the reason you shine

It’s the secret, I want the world to know that you’re mine

But on some real shit, communications could be better

So I’m writing this song instead of a love letter

They gon’ play it on the radio a hundred times a day

I figure when you hear it you gon’ stop and think of me

I wanna get to know you and be the reason you smile

Girl you know where I’m from, you know how I get down

When times get tough, tell me that I’m special

Not rap, I mean me, that I’m special

You know they say diamonds are a girl’s best friend

Precious stones, could you put me before them?

If so, I’ll see to it they always around

Nothing but the best, now how does that sound?

If I drop a jewel when we talk you can keep it

Girl you on my mind all the time, that’s a secret

[Chorus: Jamie Foxx]

Baby, I build you up

Girl, if I know for sure I have you by my side

I’d build you up

Girl, I need to know for sure you’re mine

I need to know for sure

Girl, if I know for sure I have you by my side

I’d build you up

Girl, I need to know for sure you’re mine

[Verse 2: 50 Cent]

I thinkin’ ’bout you thinkin’ that you feel the same way

Or is it just my imagination that get runnin’ away?

If you ready to ride, girl, c’mon, let’s roll

G-5-5 fly, ma, let’s go

It’s hard to measure the pleasure of havin’ you in my presence

Your smile makes me smile, I’ll show you my style

You can shop a little bit, I’ll pick out some shit

One pair at a time ’til your shoe game sick

Now who knows what the future holds we’ll be together probably

For better or worse, like Whitney and Bobby

If you wanna play house, we can play house then

But wait, why pretend when you can move in?

Before I be your buddy in bed let me be your best friend

Girl, it’s more than lust, I want your trust

You keep it real with me, I keep it real with you

Cause I know with you by my side there’s nuttin' I can’t do, yeah

[Chorus: Jamie Foxx]

Baby…

Girl, if I know for sure I have you by my side

I’d build you up

Girl, I need to know for sure you’re mine

Build you up, baby, when you’re down

Girl, if I know for sure I have you by my side

Cuz your smile, like a frown, yes I will

I’d build you up

Girl, I need to know for sure you’re mine

I’m gon’ build you up baby

[Outro]

La la la, la la la la la la la la

La la la, la la la la la la la la

La la la, la la la la la la la la

La la la, la la la la la la la la
