Never Been in Love

[Intro]

You know (Just Blaze)

One of those beautiful things in life is when a boy finds the girl he loves (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

And in his mind, some of the things he wants to do for that girl are almost impossible (Kweli, uh-huh, uh-huh)

You see, girl, I've never been in love before

But God knows, I truly—

[Verse 1]

I know there's a first time for everything

First time I let her in my bed, she got wetter than the perfect storm that we weathering together and

This the first time that I've ever considered wedding rings

But first things first, yo, met her at the bar

Rolling with three wise men like I followed the star (There she is)

Shorty bicoastal, thick like bifocals

Stacked like 2Pac vocals, her body so loco

Jewel of the Nile, so I'm romancing the stone

The rhythm is in the words, I watch her dance to my poems

The way she move them hips let me know in advance that she grown

I pictured it like Paris Hilton when she answered the phone

Yo, dancin' alone 'cause she extra fly

But I got a good look, so I catch her eye

Gave the rest a try, now give the best a try

Leave your nest to fly, I'll make you testify

Damn, baby

[Chorus]

I know we got some haters and

I don't care what people say

As long as you and me okay

'Cause I never been in love before

See, I used to be a player and

All of this is new to me

And this ain't what I'm used to seeing

'Cause I never been in love before

[Verse 2]

You running back to the kid like this was home base

Or a marathon, I let you set your own pace

Your own space and the beautiful struggle

Now baby, tell what it's gon' take to prove that I love you

When I'm gone, you be missing me too

It let me know that my prayers is the music God be listening to

Don't get it confused, I'm tryin' to get religious with you

I never thought I'd feel like this, it's like a miracle, you

You stole my heart like a crook in love

Crossin' the bridge to the Brooklyn love

When I look above, it's clear skies that's surrounding my earth

Your love is drugs and I'm down to serve, let's deal with it, yo

We go to the spot and you still get it low

I get excited fast and still love to hit it slow

'Til your walls come tumblin' down like Jericho

And you hear the sound is stereo

Here we go

[Interlude]

Listen, girl

Every time I think I've got my day up tight (Yeah)

There's always something wrong (Let's go)

Dig, baby

[Chorus]

I know we got some haters and

I don't care what people say

As long as you and me okay

'Cause I never been in love before

See, I used to be a player and

All of this is new to me

And this ain't what I'm used to seeing

'Cause I never been in love before

[Verse 3]

You looked good when I tried you on, so I had to write a song

Used to be the guy that always made her cry when I'm gone

Always kept a stable and would never spent a night alone

No cable or no hard line phone, why? I'm never home

Scared of commitment, ready to forever roam

We at war like Sister Souljah and she welcome to my terror dome

Head strong, our connection proved them haters dead wrong

From now to R.I.P. proceed my name up on the headstone

Leave her be for five minutes, dudes try to dive in it

First they wanna spit on my name and tarnish my image

I tell them, "Do you," I don't care who she speaking with

'Cause I already know she made it clear who she leaving with

Yeah, and it feels so beautiful

Put it in a rhyme 'cause it feels so musical

Plus you ain't no groupie ho sittin' in the studio

Before we do this though, there's somethin' that you should know

[Chorus]

I know we got some haters and

I don't care what people say

As long as you and me okay

'Cause I never been in love before

See, I used to be a player and

All of this is new to me

And this ain't what I'm used to seeing

'Cause I never been in love before

I know we got some haters and

I don't care what people say

As long as you and me okay

'Cause I never been in love before

See, I used to be a player and

All of this is new to me

And this ain't what I'm used to seeing

'Cause I never been in love before

I know we got some haters and

I don't care what people say

As long as you and me okay

'Cause I never been in love before

See, I used to be a player and

All of this is new to me

And this ain't what I'm used to seeing

'Cause I never been in love before
