[Verse 1]
We don't even talk no more
We ran out of words to say, yeah
And we don't even joke no more
We ran out of games to play

[Chorus]
Now I know that you ain't used to hearing me at a tempo as slow as this
But I just had to slow it down
So you can hear me when I say
I need you
I'm nothing without you
A zero without you, baby
I need you
I'm nothing without you
That's why I'm glad I got you, baby

[Verse 2]
We don't even laugh no more
What was funny yesterday isn't funny today, Lord
We don't make love no more
And when we do it's not the same man

[Chorus]
And I know that you ain't used to hearing me at a tempo as slow as this
But I just had to slow it down
So you can hear me when I say
I need you
I'm nothing without you
A zero without you, baby
I need you
I'm nothing without you
I'm glad I got you, baby

[Outro]
Yeah, I know it is
I must be doing something right
I must be doing some.., yeah
I must be doing something right
And I'ma keep doing it right
I said I'ma keep doing it right
Yeah, Velvet

Lil Wayne

Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr., better known by his stage name Lil Wayne, grew up in the Hollygrove neighborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana.

At the age of nine, Lil Wayne joined Cash Money Records as the youngest member of the label, and half of the duo, The B.G.‘z, with B.G.. In 1997, Lil Wayne joined the group Hot Boys, which also included rappers Juvenile, B.G., and Young Turk. Lil Wayne gained most of his success with the group’s major selling album Guerrilla Warfare, released in 1999. He has been listed in the 2012 Guinness Book Of World Records for the record of Most US Hot 100 Hits By A Rap Artist with 64 hits between 1999 and 2010.

Wayne is famous for his command of slow, witty lines and metaphorical jokes. His discography includes a slew of successful mixtapes, including Dedication 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6; No Ceilings; and Da Drought 3. His albums consistently garner acclaim, with Tha Carter series all platinum hits. Tha Carter series has been a work of Wayne’s for 13 years and continues to grow with the fifth installment, Tha Carter V released in 2018 (however, it was initially supposed to be released in late 2014). Wayne keeps a regular recording schedule, with studio booths in his tour bus, home, and following him everywhere.
