This particular song right here is dedicated to the black woman
 And it doesn't pertain to all black women  because some of y'all
 disrespect
 y'all selves bcause you don't know who you are in the first place.
 This is out of respect to women period
 Word up
 I'm quite single
 And occassionally I mingle
 But aside from all the rest
 You sparks my interest
 No m'aam  I don't know you
 Just offerin the common respect I feel I owe you
 Also, some conversation, companionship
 Common ground and common sense
 There's no such thing as coincidence
 In me findin you here
 And I really hate screamin in yo ear
 So some other time, OK
 I waited a day
 Hello, this is Carlito
 From a coupla days ago
 You sound tired
 Forgive me if I call you too late
 But what better time to relate mindstate
 Where could I begin?
 Has anyone ever told you have beautiful skin?
 You're more than welcome
 What do you desire within?
 I just wanna be
 There's no need to put titles on you and me
 Those are limitations
 Livin and learnin are our only obligations
 Equality, honesty, independence
 Intelligence emotin and devotion
 Humbly seekin to hear God when he's speakin to us
 A one time my mind just couldn't concieve
 A woman had to dress a certain way to believe
 But, in the same breath allow me to say
 That, if you believe, young lady, you wouldn't dress that way
 And I was attracted to your class
 I couldn't see all yo ass
 And I was very content
 You deserved every compliment
 Indifferences make us the same
 You gotta have some game, or
 You ain't even gonna be able t take care of yoself
 I love when I look at you, I see my reflection
 So I offer my love, affection and protecton
 Shorty, you dead fine
 But the bottom line is, you still my sista
 Chorus:
 Well, I say
 You're my beginnin, my end
 You're my sista lover and friend
 God is your light from within
 It shines from your beautiful skin
 What they say 'bout you ain't true
 There's no me if there is no you
 I hope that you understand
 You got to respect yourself before I can
 Gipp:
 I met you and y'all knew
 Saw you again on Marietta
 Downtown Atlanta
 Checkin your long legs, got me smirkin
 Fixed me dinner one night, candles lit
 Thought you was slick in the beginnin
 But it teurned out you wouldn't lie
 Looked me in my eye
 I listened
 Sucked it up, pushed on
 We made amends
 Both sides clicked, true friends
 Since then, years done gon by
 Brought a baby girl into this world
 Made our parents grandfolk
 Household with no hope
 Took care of ye, you me
 When shit got put out on the curb
 Closer than the skin on the back of my hand
 Through the thick and thin
 We can win
 Beautiful black skin
 Chorus:
 Khujo:
 No need to compete
 With the music loud
 Or stairs cold
 Put on a scale
 Of one to ten, you a twelve
 I chose her over jail and hell
 Originally from ATL
 T-Mo:
 Compatible souls come together
 Under bad weather
 To discuss the mistrust
 Amongst the so-called
 Good in every woman
 How I wish this was true
 I deal with facts only
 Already done cloned me
 Why I sang the blues
 When there's only one God that watches over our every step
 I need his help
 When I'm walkin
 Lookin for the right female
 I can't tell sometimes
 They tell me the devil's comin humble in his approach
 Spontaneous with the game
 Caught the naive of a girl fallin for the OK
 Let the pistol smoke the one you live by
 Die by
 Examples of how relationships can be
 Khujo:
 I rolls the dice
 Takin a chance at crappin out
 Like today boy
 I lost one of my best hips
 Natural thick lips
 No animal fat implants
 Wide load
 This daughter workin at the airport
 19 years old
 Worth more her weight in gold
 But it was all my fault
 So don't cry, understand
 And down the line I want you back
 But the feelin ain't mutual
 Just promise me you'll find a new man
 That's bout some business
 Hope she find what her was lookin for
 Like a ?????
 I wanted to be more than friends
 Beautiful black skin (black skin)
 Chorus
