[Intro]
Yeah yeah, check, yeah
Listen, ay
Yeah
[Verse 1]
It's about to be a celebration, lemme see you put your glasses up, yeah
Got around the table with my people, know we’ve been through all the down and ups
When you're drowning in your sorrows, know the answer's love
Just know that it’s enough, I met my mother's mother
And seen the sacrifices made so I can live this life
I tell you twice, "Keep it a hunnid," better yet double that (Oh)
Took a visit to the Motherland, I'm never coming back
The place they enslave before my name
Changes that I made was all for peace of mind, king
Bling ain't been enough, tired of being tough
I'm a diamond that's in a rough when I was leaving home (Ooh)
This shit defined it, who I want to be, I needed clarity
It's my decisions but these demons, they get mad at me
Battling with myself, battling with my health
Couldn't manage the cards it dealt, I been keeping me to myself
[Chorus]
I need love (Love, love, love, love)
Yes I do, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do
I need love (Love, love, love, love)
Yeah, I need love, I need love
I need trust, I need you, yeah
I need trust, I need truth, yeah
I need love
Nothing else above that, yeah
Check
[Chorus]
See, I been dealing with the changes on a daily basis
But contemplating on leaving the place that I was raised in
I get a taste of the Motherland, they say it’s amazing
I love the music but they treat me like I’m someone famous
I guess I'm still gettin’ used to it all
A couple extra zeroes, what did I do with it all?
I blew the bag one time, they don't teach 'em in school
Now I gotta buy land and go build me a school
Tell you I'm keeping it cool, pressures of a young black man that’s destined to ball
They say I'm destined to fall
I say I pity the fool that thought I could never be what I thought
That's cool, that's cool, here I am seeing it all
Been around the world and I made me some moves
I guess a little time alone can reveal you a truth
I know I gotta be better before I give you my heart
This life I been livin' been the pillar to the strength from the start
[Chorus]
I need love (Love, love, love, love)
Yes I do, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do
I need love (Love, love, love, love)
Yeah, I need love, I need love
I need trust, I need you, yeah
I need trust, I need truth, yeah
I need love
Nothing else above that, yeah (Yeah)
