Take Time

[Chorus: Choir]

All y'all thinking about is kissing and hugging

And loving

I just think we gotta take time

All y’all thinking about is kissing and hugging

And loving

I just think we gotta take time

[Verse 1: Samm Henshaw]

I've been noticin' lately there’s a shift in your way

Back and forth, these motions make our conversations sway

I just get the feeling that you're too stuck in that space

Think about it, just think about it, ooh, yeah, yeah

If I brought you flowers, made you coffee in the morning (Good morning)

Placed it on a plate so everybody sees me ballin' (He's ballin')

If that means I love you more, if that is all it takes

Baby, I would rather wait, aw yeah

[Chorus: Samm Henshaw and Choir]

All y'all thinking about is kissing and hugging (Yeah)

And loving (And loving)

I just think we gotta take time (I just think we gotta take time, hey)

All y'all thinking about is kissing and hugging (Oh, yeah)

And loving

I just think we gotta take time (Yeah)

Take a second, let it breathe

Take a minute, baby, just let it be

Oh, all y'all thinking about is kissing and hugging

And loving

I just think we gotta take time

[Verse 2: Samm Henshaw]

Yeah, get out your head, it’s alright

I know some days we waste all our energy

Caught in the web we weave

Picture perfect moments that we never had, pretending

Think about it, just think about it, ooh, yeah, yeah

[Chorus: Samm Henshaw and Choir]

All y’all thinking about is kissing and hugging

And loving (Aw, yeah)

I just think we gotta take time (Baby, we should take time)

All y'all thinking about is kissing and hugging

And loving (Oh-oh)

I just think we gotta take time (Yeah)

Take a second, let it breathe

Take a minute, baby, just let it be

Oh, all y’all thinking about is kissing and hugging

And loving

I just think we gotta take time, yeah

[Post-Chorus: Samm Henshaw]

If I bought you flowers (flowers), flowers

If I bought you flowers (flowers), bought you flowers

If I bought you flowers (flowers), flowers

Think about it, think about it, ooh yeah yeah

[Bridge: Tobe Nwigwe]

Look

Remember fiendin' to release my semen

Swear, I had a demon underneath my covers

And I remember chasing after hella boxes with a packet full of extra rubbers

They say palates that don't know good seasonin'

Probably prefer their dishes hella smothered

And hell, I ain’t different

There was years in my kitchen I ain't had nothin' but gravy in the cupboard

Or a cabinet

Either way, it's clear I was a magnet

For hypersexual, somewhat ravenous, savages

Described as immaculate, pristine beings

Yeah

It was like this since my mid-teens

So I write to smite the hype described as love

To those who have sight, but can't see (But can't see)

See (flowers, flowers)

Yeah

[Chorus: Samm Henshaw]

All y'all thinking about is kissing and hugging (Yeah)

And loving

I just think we gotta take time

All y'all thinking about is kissing and hugging

And loving (Oh-oh)

I just think we gotta take time (Yeah)

Take a second, let it breathe

Take a minute, baby, just let it be

Oh, all y'all thinking about is kissing and hugging

And loving

I just think we gotta take time, yeah

[Outro: Samm Henshaw]

If I bought you flowers (flowers), flowers

If I bought you flowers (flowers), bought you flowers

If I bought you flowers (flowers), flowers

Think about it, think about it, ooh yeah yeah

If I do-do-do-do-do, da-da-da-da-da-da

If I bought you flowers (Flowers)

If I brought you flowers (Flowers)

If I brought you flowers

If I bought you flowers

Would you still love me the same, baby?
