[Intro]
Street Love
[Verse 1: André 3000]
I said, "What time you get off?"
She said, "When you get me off"
I kinda laughed, but it turned into a cough
'Cause I swallowed down the wrong pipe
Whatever that mean—
You know, old people say it, so it sounds right
So I'm standing there embarrassed
If we were both in Paris
I would have grabbed her by the waist and kissed her, but
We in the middle of Whole Foods
And those fools ain't supposed to beef
But you'd think they hated tofu
Check-in line got rowdy; my vision got cloudy
I started seeing circles like some Audi—
Emblem; I'm hearing them say, "Come on, man
Do this own your own time—get the hell on, man"
I walked out, hm, I got 'bout...
Halfway to my car when I heard shawty shout:
"3000, forgot your credit card—smart move
By the way, my little sister loves your cartoon
Well, here's my name and num'
If I ain't the one, lose it; if I am, use it"
If a man chooses and he can do's it
And he don't, don't take it personal
He might be might be swamped
With making mozzarella—no, making worlds better
Cheese will come, believe me; I'm—
Never focused on the cash
Ask Mel Gibson, Jesus Christ, I'm 'bout the pass-ion
[Verse 2: Lloyd]
Stop—baby, bring that thang back
You know where my heart at
Shawty, show your boy some love
'Cause I'm about to lose it
With the way you move it
Makes me wanna get to it, yeah
Girl, tell me what it do
I'll change the game for you
I'm a playa, yes it's true, but
[Bridge: Lloyd]
Can I be for real?
This is how I feel
I'm in need of love
So let's dip up out of here
Ooh, you're just my type
Everything's so right
And I just wanna chill
So let's dip up out of here
Let's dip up out of here
[Hook: Lloyd]
Ha, ha-ha
Ha, ha
She's fine too
But I want you
Ha, ha, ha-ha
Ha, ha
She's fine too
But I want you
[Verse 3: Lloyd]
I’ll admit it
This just ain't no game
These just ain't words that I'm spitting
If you could see the thoughts that's in my head
I'm tripping (Thoughts that's in my head)
I'm a player, yeah, it's true
But I'll change the game for you
See what I do, ooh
[Bridge: Lloyd]
Can I be for real?
This is how I feel
I'm in need of love
So let's dip up out of here
Ooh, you're just my type
Everything's so right
And I just wanna chill
So let's dip up out of here
Let's dip up out of here
[Hook: Lloyd & Nas]
Ha, ha-ha
Ha, ha
She's fine too
But I want you
Ha, ha, ha-ha
Ha, ha
She's fine too (Yeah)
But I want you
[Verse 4: Nas]
Yeah, Nas be in the crib, low, strip-pole-ing it
Cold Guinness, bitter taste; slim waist, I'm gon' hit it
We low-key, baby, like a baritone
Apple computer, email me to come scoop you
Run through you, undo your bra, give me medulla, ah
You cute as a movie star in Sin City, Hennessy, my love slave
Loving is pimping, no rest hāve with none of 'em
I'll leave every one of 'em, you just say it
Just leave it where it is, he ain't aware
Let sleeping dogs lie, but keep a sharp eye on him
'Cause I'm the wrong guy, don't wanna put this four-five on him
Let's get it on, ma, you got my nose wide open
You already locked down and rocked down, but so delicious
If he get suspicious, bring up his old mistress
I ain't dry-snitching
But why should you be feeling bad 'cause I be killing that, huh?
[Bridge: Lloyd]
Can I be for real?
This is how I feel
I'm in need of love
So let's dip up out of here
Ooh, you're just my type
Everything's so right
And I just wanna chill
So let's dip up out of here
Let's dip up out of here
[Hook: Lloyd]
Ha, ha-ha
Ha, ha

But I want you
