It's Us
ATL feat. Ciara Harris Lyrics

Yeah, it's real this time
This time, the situation is genuine

There's nuthin in this world that's perfect ma'
Nothing in this world is flawless

You gotta understand that, why'knaw I mean?
You need to be aware of this fact

If you gon' keep it real wit me
If you're going to be honest with me

I think we gon' be ight
I believe we'll be fine

One thing you always gotta remember is how we started
Always remember how we first met

We met eachother through mutual friends
We were introduced to each other by our mutual friends

It's both of us
We both matter

We'll be straight dogg
We'll be alright, my friend

Is it your silky skin
Is it the smoothness of your skin

Ya' innocent grin
That innocent smile

Or them curves and tha way that chu' been
Or the curves of your body and the way you've been

Whatever it is, you got me glad that I took notice
Whatever it is, I'm happy that I paid attention to you

When times hopeless
When things seem hopeless

Your words helped me stay focused
Your words kept me focused

I was once told, never trust a diva
Someone once said to me, don't trust a diva

I usually toss 'em like the crust of a pizza
I usually disregard them like pizza crusts

But now my sixth sense tell me ta keep her
But now my intuition tells me to keep you

We livin' lavida
We're living the good life

In our own world like cita
In our own little world like a couple

I'll let you sport mah chain, rock mah hat,
I'll let you wear my jewelry and clothes

Wear mah jersey, watch mah back
Wear my sports jersey and look out for me

It took a lot for you to earn my trust
You had to work hard to earn my trust

You wanna roll wit a boss?
Do you want to be with a leader?

Then trust is a must
Then trust is essential

So lets skip all the fightin' and fuss
So let's avoid all the arguing and fighting

Forget about them, it's us
Let's forget about others, and focus on us

Girl it's us, nothing's gon' change it, that's a fact
It's just me and you, and that's a fact

Even if ya' girls ain't down for that
Even if your friends don't approve

And even if the fellas ain't got my back
And even if my friends aren't supportive

Nomatter what they say we'll try
No matter what they say, we'll try to make it work

They say you get what you pay for
People say you get what you pay for

That's why I'd rather pay more
That's why I'm willing to spend more

And keep you in them wears, shortys slice ya' face for
And keep you in expensive clothes, other girls would be jealous

They get tha knock off's, you get the real Louis
They get the fake items, but I give you the real thing

That's one of the benefits of gettin' close to me
That's one of the advantages of being with me

Down for three years ain't nuttin come between
We've been together for three years without anything coming between us

Expirienced things you never thought you woulda' seen
We've experienced things you never thought you would see

I took you off the scene
I took you out of the public eye

Sold you a dream
I gave you a vision for our future together

You bought that wit out no cream
You believed in me without any evidence

We a match made, like george and weezie
We're a perfect couple like George and Weezie from the TV show The Jeffersons

Lucy and ricky, ike and tina, bobby and whitney
We're like other famous couples from music and TV

And if shit hit the fan, you comin' wit me
And if things go wrong, we're in this together

I won't take the stand, they gotta' come and get me
I won't testify against you, they'll have to force me

Ain't no limit to what I would do
There's nothing I wouldn't do

Cause true love strikes only one in a few
Because true love is rare

You might think it's too good to be true
You might think our relationship is too perfect

But it ain't up to me, (Ohhh girl) it's up to you
But it's up to you to decide

Girl it's (it's us) us, nothing's gon' change it, that's a fact (that's right, yeah)
It's just me and you, and nothing will change that

And even if the fellas ain't got my back (it's me and you girl)
And even if my friends aren't supportive (it's still just me and you)

Nomatter what they say we'll try (ohh baby listen to me)
No matter what they say, we'll try to make things work (listen to what I'm saying)

(girl we got a good love
We have a great love

The kind that dreams are made of
The kind of love people dream about

And we're gonna keep it together
And we're going to stay together

I'll be lovin' you forever)
I'll love you forever

Boy I want you know, you make me so happy, I'll never leave your side, not for a minute
I want you to know, you make me so happy that I'll never leave your side, not even for a minute

I'm in it to win it
I'm committed to our relationship

Nomatter if they gossipin' out loud or whisperin'
No matter if people are talking about us out loud or behind our backs

Smile in our face, but behind our backs snickerin'
They might act friendly to our faces, but ridicule us behind our backs

And when we bickerin' they use that to tear us apart
And when we argue, they use that as an opportunity to break us up

It's obvious they got hate in they heart
It's clear that they have hatred in their hearts

I told you from the start, overhere we livin splendid
I told you from the beginning that we're living luxuriously here

Amount that they make in a year, we get ta spend it
We're able to spend what they make in a year

And we'll be movin' ahead when they finish (girl it's us)
And we'll continue to make progress while they remain stuck (it's just me and you)

I say these two words to you only cause I ment it
I say these words to you because I mean them

It's us
It's just us

And even if the fellas ain't got my back
And even if my friends aren't supportive

Nomatter what they say we'll try
No matter what they say, we'll try to make things work

And even if the hate, we'll ride
And even if people hate us, we'll stick together

Girl it's us, (it's me and you) nothing's gon' change it, that's a fact (nothing's gonna change it baby)
It's just me and you, and nothing will change that, that's a fact

And even if the fellas ain't got mah back (im gonna love you forever)
And even if my friends aren't supportive (I'll love you forever)

Don't listen to the haters baby
Don't pay attention to the people who hate us, my dear

We'll always be together
We'll always be together
