[Intro: Romeo]
I makes all the money, uh
I makes all the money, uh
I makes all the money, uh
I makes all the money
Rome got all the mamis, check it
Spend thirty G's on clothes, not sweatin' it
Yo wait, you see the SL 500
Trip, I gotta answer my flip
Let's see, what my next move will be
I gotta make a grip, for all da honeys
For all da honeys, for all da honeys
Haha, haha
(First verse)

[Verse 1: Marques Houston]
The summer breeze
You're holding my hand
Girl, you don't understand
Exactly what you're doing to me
Memories, reminding me of you
And all the things you do
Has got me hooked on lovin' you
(Just take it to the bridge)

[Pre-Chorus: Immature, Marques Houston]
You and I (You and I)
We were meant to be (We were meant to be)
I'll give you everything you need (Everything you need)
You and I (You and I)
Our love remains (Our love remains)
As long as we don't play no games (Play no games)

[Chorus: Immature, Marques Houston]
I'll give you all of me (All of me)
Can't you see? (Can't you see, baby?)
No matter what they say
I'll give you everything you need
(Give you everything)
You got a hold on me (Hold on me)
Can't you see? (Can't you see?)
I'll never change my ways
I'll give you everything you need
(To the second verse, to the second verse)

[Verse 2: Marques Houston]
Reminisce all night
Just kickin' it
Even when I'm miles away
My heart belongs to you only
Try to try
In love one one time
I won't let you down
Just believe in me

[Pre-Chorus: Immature, Marques Houston]
You and I (You and I)
We were meant to be (We were meant to be)
I'll give you everything you need
(I'll give you everything you need)
You and I (You and I)
Our love remains (Our love remains)
As long as we don't play no games (Play no games)

[Chorus: Immature, Marques Houston]
I'll give you all of me (Give you all)
Can't you see? (All of me)
No matter what they say
I'll give you everything you need
(I'll give you everything)
You got a hold on me (You got a hold on me)
Can't you see? (Can't you see?)
I'll never change my ways
I'll give you everything you need
(I'll give you everything)

[Verse 3: Romeo, Marques Houston]
Rome makes all the money, check it (Oh)
24K Rolex, wreckin' (Yeah)
Money-makin' rebel, laced
Collectin' all the cash in the suitcase, mmm
Respect the way I freak the track
The way I freak the track, the way I freak the track
So hypnotized
Got your head swingin' back
Haha, haha (I'll give you everything)

[Chorus: Immature, Marques Houston]
I'll give you all of me (Baby)
Can't you see? (Can't you see? Yeah)
No matter what they say
I'll give you everything you need
(I'll give you everything)
You got a hold on me (I got a hold on you)
Can't you see?
I'll never change my ways (Don't ever change my ways)
I'll give you everything you need (Change my ways)
I'll give you all of me (All of me)
Can't you see? (Can't you see?)
No matter what they say
I'll give you everything you need
(I'll do anything, yeah)
You got a hold on me (Yeah yeah)
Can't you see? (Can't you see?)
I'll never change my ways
I'll give you everything you need (Give you everything)

Immature, also known as IMx, is an R&B group from Los Angeles, California. The group was formed in 1992 by Marques Houston (Batman), Jerome Jones (Romeo, also known as Young Rome), and Don Santos (Half-Pint). The trio decided to enter a talent show together at the school they were attending. After performing, they were discovered and signed to Virgin Records, and began recording their debut album.

Their debut album, On Our Worst Behavior, was released on September 22, 1992. The album produced three singles: “Tear It Up (On Our Worst Behavior” featuring Jermaine Dupri, “Da Munchies”, and “I Wanna Know U That Way”. Though the album and two of its singles failed to chart, “Tear It Up (On Our Worst Behavior)” managed to peak at #29 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, largely due to its inclusion on the soundtrack to the animated film Bébé’s Kids.

In 1994, Half-Pint’s parents pulled him from the group because they wanted him to focus on his studies more instead of being in the group. Half-Pint was replaced by Kelton Reese (LDB, or Little Drummer Boy), who was already the drummer for the group. Now signed to MCA Records, their sophomore effort Playtyme Is Over was released on August 10, 1994. Unlike their previous effort, the album managed to peak at #26 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and #88 on the Billboard 200. The accompanying three singles for the album were: “Never Lie” (the album’s most successful single, peaking at #5 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, “Constantly”, and “I Don’t Mind”.
