[Verse 1: Papoose]
I think I fell in love with her when she told me her story
What she been through in her life, her pain and her glory
Certain situations, wish I was there, would've protected her
She survived it by herself, I respected her
We exchanged numbers, I started textin' her
That wasn't enough, naw, had to get next to her
She had the black drop-top, I went and set with her
Starin' in her eyes, thinkin' of havin' sex with her
It was somethin' special about her, so I treasured her
Like Akeem did Lisa in Coming to America
I was overseas when they arrested her
Left the tour, hopped on the plane, I had to rep for her
Sometimes I wish that was me locked instead of her
Swear to God I almost died the day they sentenced her
But we stay loyal (Stay loyal), they couldn't sever us
Things happen for a reason, I guess it bettered us
[Chorus: Musiq Soulchild]
All I (All I), I wanna do (Wanna do), all the things (All the things)
All them niggas won't do (Yeah, what they won't do)
I'll do them for you (A-A-A-All I)
All I, I just wanna do all the things
That them other niggas won't do (What them other niggas won't do)
I'll do them for you (Whoa)
[Post-Chorus: Musiq Soulchild]
Precious (Precious)
Precious (Precious)
Baby, I'm gon' treasure you like a precious jewel (Like a precious jewel)
You're so precious, precious, precious, yeah
You deserve the best and nothin' less, it's true (It's true)
Nothin' less than the best for you (It's true)
[Verse 2: Papoose]
It's the black loveologist
Pisces to astrologist
Nibble on your nipple and have you bitin' your bottom lip
Inner beauty, I seen it inside of her
Before I met you, I was your secret admirer
Security, I gotta pat you down (Pat you down)
Titties so big they might back me down (Back me down)
Lay back, smokin' on a Black & Mild
Chillin', we gon' do it macky style
Uh, this goes out to the queens (Queens)
Never have low self-esteem (Nope)
He can't respond to a text that he seen? (What?)
He say he busy, what the fuck that clown mean?
We all busy from time to time
But when you feelin' your lady, you gon' find the time, uh
I just think you too much of a fly chick (Fly chick)
For you to ever, ever be a side bitch
[Chorus: Musiq Soulchild]
All I (All I), I wanna do (Wanna do), all the things (All the things)
All them niggas won't do (Yeah, what they won't do)
I'll do them for you (A-A-A-All I)
All I, I just wanna do all the things
That them other niggas won't do (What them other niggas won't do)
I'll do them for you (Whoa)
[Post-Chorus: Musiq Soulchild]
Precious (Precious)
Precious (Precious)
Baby, I'm gon' treasure you like a precious jewel (Like a precious jewel)
You're so precious, precious, precious, yeah
You deserve the best and nothin' less, it's true (It's true)
Nothin' less than the best for you (Nothin' less than the best for you)
[Verse 3: Musiq Soulchild]
Sometimes I get caught up in how you so beautiful
I can't help but stare (I just be starin' at you), yeah
They be trippin' on how I show you love in public, but I don't even care
(If the only knew), What me and you (Done been through)
And we been through it (Just for there to even be a me and you)
Sometimes I gotta celebrate the fact that we found a way
To stay in love through all the hate
(That's why), That's why I have to make you a permanent part of my journey
Need love, and you hurt me
You've been low, you've been high
But I've always been right there by your side
Guess that's why we ridin' 'til the end of time (End of time)
This kind of love is so real (Precious)
[Outro: Papoose]
A woman is the most precious jewel
More precious than a ruby, emerald, diamond, or sapphire
Each man gotta take one woman and rise her above the rest
So she can show how precious she is
Precious jewel
You deserve better, uh
Black love
Black love
Black love
