Today is my day that I know fo sho
Gotta speak first, gotta let you know
In case you're wondering if I'm available
If you think that I am , I am and if
Something's on your mind, you should let it off
It's no coincidence when you're caught off guard
Me and you supposed to be baby...
I ain't trippin on your car or where you live
It don't matter if your broke, we'll be struggling
What I'm saying is that I will be your baby
This ain't no maybe
Ain't tryna get my thoughts all in your way
I don't even want your ???
You're the one I wanna kick it wit
This ain't no maybe, is you feeling me
You'll have to pardon if I come on strong
It's just that you got everything I want
It's your character, the way you be
It's so intriguing to me baby
I like your braids and your thug appeal
Keep it real
How's about me and you on the low, what the deal
Baby in case you haven't noticed
Without you boy I'm so hopeless
I ain't trippin on your car or where you live
It don't matter if your broke, we'll be struggling
What I'm saying is that I will be your baby
This ain't no maybe
Ain't tryna get my thoughts all in your way
I don't even want your ???
You're the one I wanna kick it wit
This ain't no maybe, is you feeling me
You make me weak in the knees
I can't sleep, I can't eat
I cant even think baby
Can't even concentrate
I can't even think straight
See you need a lady
Hey boy I wanna be your lady
Let me be your baby
I know that I'm the one for you
Boy don't you know
I ain't trippin on your car or where you live
It don't matter if your broke, we'll be struggling
What I'm saying is that I will be your baby
This ain't no maybe
Ain't tryna get my thoughts all in your way
I don't even want your ???
You're the one I wanna kick it wit
This ain't no maybe, is you feeling me
I wanna be your lady
No actin shady
And I put that on everything
I wanna be your lady
No actin shady cuz I'm your baby
And I put that on everything, everything
The song "Ain't No Maybe" by the American girl group 3LW, is a declaration of love that emphasizes the confidence and certainty of the singer's feelings for the love interest. The song is upbeat, with a mix of R&B and pop elements. It conveys a sense of eagerness and determination as the singer lets her love interest know that she is available and interested.
The chorus of the song is repetitive, with the phrase "This ain't no maybe" repeated several times. The repetition adds to the song's catchiness and reinforces the singer's conviction that she wants to be with the person she's singing to. The first verse sets the scene and establishes the singer's intent to speak her mind. She makes it clear that if the love interest thinks she is available, then she is, and if he has something to say, he should speak up. The second verse reinforces the idea that the singer doesn't care about material possessions and would be happy even if they struggled together. She goes on to say that she likes the love interest for who he is, not what he has.
The bridge highlights the singer's emotional state, showing that the love interest affects her deeply, and she can't even concentrate or sleep because she's thinking about him. The singer then asserts that she wants to be the love interest's lady and that he should trust her because she'll be loyal and true.
