Thanking the Girls

[Intro]

With ears to hear, all subtle [?]

And eyes that see with clarity

The dark creature of a single blood

To all the girls in the world

[Verse 1]

I’m thanking you girl for changing my life 

For making me whole and being my wife

For holding me tight and all through the night 

And trusting in me and lusting for free

Yes, I played the game, wrote so many names

Across my heart that I hoped to die

To fall up again, I wouldn’t even try

But you came along, so good and so strong

Your hair was so bomb, your ideas

That fly kind of weird, wildness and pure

Yeah, I’m sure

You pose like a poster, honey glowed up

Your jeans is a holster, look over your shoulder

Your eyes start to smolder (At me)

If I knew you there I would show up 

You’d see me and show off 

Nep knew I dug you, I told you, "I love you"

You gone, it's a struggle, move on, ooh, it's tough to 

But seasons they pass and change

And good things don’t last, remains

They wash up on the shores of my mind

Somehow getting stronger with time (Stronger)

 

[Chorus]

I'm thanking you girl, I'm loving you

I'm thanking you girl, I'm loving you

I'm thanking you girl, I'm loving you

I'm thanking the girls, I'm loving you

[Verse 2]

I'm thanking you, Dee, for being so free and being so g

So kind and so fine, big sister, divine, and taking your time 

And Khaila, who’s flyer? Baby hair styling, got all the jokes

Dee said when y’all out you want all the smoke

I’m just so happy how y’all are so close

I’m just so happy when both the girls close to me

Laughing, relaxing, and clowning, free (Oh, that’s your boyfriend, nice to meet you brother)

If he should get out of line, I’m a down him

Bottom line, rain or shine, family 

Put one up one time for moms and your grannies

When Jazz have a baby, think about it

I’m gon’ be g-pop and y’all gon’ be aunties 

But life is a garden of forking paths

Highs arise then lows arrive fast

The only way past it, to get off your ass

Your value not tied up in shit from no man

But y’all knew that

The one thing that you can count on is dad 

I’m thanking you girls

[Chorus]

I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you

I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you

I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you

I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you

I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you

I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you

I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you

I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you

[Outro]

La-la-la, la-la-la

La-la-la, yeah

I'm lovin' you, I'm lovin' you

I'm thanking the girls, I'm lovin' you

I'm thanking the girls, I'm lovin' you
