See I don't want nobody else, huh
And I, I'm bout to offer all I can give him
'Cause I'm a slave to his rhythm
I said I just can't help myself

[Pre-Chorus 1: Amerie]
'Cause baby I love ya (I love ya)
And I trust ya (And I trust ya)
You don't have to worry 'bout nothing (Ooh)
Ooh I'm alive right now, look at me

I've always loved the way you shook your behind, mmh
And I can see it in your eyes, baby girl, damn, hearts don't lie
'Cause I feel the same, by calling your name
Can show me a game, girl, let's speak your mind

[Pre-Chorus 2: SE7EN, Amerie]
Don't be scared (I'm scared)

'Cause trying's always worth it (Ooh)
Ooh I'm alive right now, just look at me, yeah, hey

You got everything
And anything I need, want you to bring it to me baby
