Lyrics
[Chorus: Jill Scott] I've been wondering about The complexity of what we have here Should there be more? Just can't see more I've been wondering about The complexity Of what we have and Should there be more? Just can't see more [Verse 1: Black Thought] You're physically in this, but how could we tell If we was meant to be in bliss if you're not mentally as well? This energy you're sending me is tricky as hell Usually it's like a 50/50, we could take a L, before we start things At this point, being apart brings The feeling of somebody plucking at your heart strings I know it probably shouldn't feel like this But any other woman I see is in your likeness It's from your cheekbones To your lips, to your curves, to your deep moans To that walk, to your words Your love feeling like a breakdown on the verge First we on good terms, then you on my last nerves Got my back just aching, my shoes is all tight It's too complex, when we choose to do it right, it's wrong One minute, you a soldier, strong Then you trying a route talking about it's over and gone [Chorus: Jill Scott] I've been wondering about The complexity of what we have here Should there be more? Just can't see more I've been wondering about The complexity Of what we have and Should there be more? Just can't see more [Verse 2: Black Thought] When your boyfriend's in town, it's bound to be trouble, love His name Black, and he known to be a lover of Getting it on with my smoker's jacket on Eyes racing back and forth, listening to Chaka Khan Trying to figure the cause, why you always acting off, like I'm slacking off Maybe our signals getting crossed? What the case, love? You feel like you making a waste of Your precious time you need to get a taste of Some space to breathe, a moment as friends? We should've felt ourselves slipping into it again 'Cause it's like off and on, on and off Passion, lost and found, found and lost Clashing, asking for nothing but understanding Your hearts made of glass, use care when handling Girl, all in all, I'd never leave you stranded 'Cause my respect, you commanded – you figure it out [Chorus: Jill Scott, (Black Thought)] I've been wondering about The complexity of what we have here Should there be more? (It's like that) Just can't see more I've been wondering about (Come on) The complexity Of what we have and Should there be more? (It's like that) Just can't see more [Verse 3: Black Thought] I used to come into the party and stand around 'Cause I was kinda too shy to really get down I used to play the corner and watch the scene Deep down, knowing I wanted to find me a queen And I could feel that in my stomach, and up in my chest Because I knew a lot of women, and some was fresh But then I found you, girl, and just like me You had a heart that was yearning to be set free Now listen, see you and me, we need to take the time To erase any doubt that's inside your mind It's not a mountain that I'm ever too tired to climb And who's counting, but I know at least a thousand times I let you know I'm here for you, care for you, and confide in you Break bread, share with you, and provide for you And that's full time, it's no 9 to 5 with you That's why I'm trying to work it out with you – let's figure it out [Chorus: Jill Scott, (Black Thought)] I've been wondering about The complexity of what we have here (It's like that) Should there be more? Just can't see more I've been wondering about The complexity Of what we have and Should there be more? (It's like that) Just can't see more (Come on...) [Bridge: Jill Scott] *vocalizing "da da da"s* [Chorus: Jill Scott] I've been wondering about The complexity of what we have here Should there be more? Just can't see more I've been wondering about The complexity Of what we have and Should there be more? Just can't see more Da da da da, da da da da...
