Gotta Give A Little Extra
Darren Espanto Lyrics

You're my heart my love from the start correct? (yes)
You are my true love and the one I have loved since the beginning. Do you agree?

True blue together forever no need to guess
Our love is real and we will always be together, no need to doubt it.

The feelings we shared since day one
The emotions we have shared since the first day we met.

Are the feelings I can't stay away from
I am unable to resist the feelings I have for you.

A hundred years of peace I hope we live to be
I pray that we have a long and peaceful life together.

The longer to enjoy the things you give to me
The more time we have together, the more I can enjoy the happiness you bring me.

I thank God for the day that I met ya
I am grateful to have met you and thank God for bringing us together.

So there's no problem, with givin a little extra
I have no issue with going above and beyond to show you even more love.

Peace of mind I ceased to find before ya
I was unable to find inner peace before meeting you.

Then you soothed my soul soon as I saw ya
As soon as I met you, you brought peace to my soul.

When I need your love I just call ya
Whenever I need your love, I know I can count on you and call you.

You bring me joy, babe and I adore ya
You bring me immense happiness and I absolutely love you.

Nothin can phase or erase our romance
Nothing can change or destroy the love we have for each other.

No other gets a glance, no other has a chance
I have no interest in anyone else and no one else stands a chance with me.

To you, ooh? Is who I need to be nex ta
Being next to you is exactly where I need to be.

All that you give I can give a little extra
I am willing to go the extra mile to reciprocate the love and affection that you give me.

Secure the crib so you can rest your head
I will take care of you and make sure you have a safe and comfortable place to sleep.

Wake up in the mornin eat your breakfast in bed
I will make sure you have a luxurious and relaxing morning by bringing you breakfast in bed.

Pick you up from work and take you out to eat
I want to make sure you have a good time and take you out to eat after a long day at work.

Come home rest your feet and I'll change the sheets
You can come home and relax while I take care of everything else like changing the sheets.

I'm your soldier, your warrior huh, all out trooper
I am dedicated to protecting and loving you with all my might.

like a woman with a cape baby, I think you're Super
You are my superwoman and I admire and adore everything about you.

The prize that you are to me I place none above it
You are the most important person in my life and I value you above everyone else.

How you like it when I give a little extra (I love it)
Do you like it when I put in extra effort and show even more love? (Yes, I love it)

People, I wasn't always spoken for
I wasn't always in a committed relationship.

Afraid to get my heart broken sure
I used to be afraid of getting hurt in relationships.

Sometimes only a diss follows a kiss
Sometimes a relationship ends in disappointment after starting well.

You got to take some risks to have a love like this
Taking risks in a relationship is necessary for true love.

Meanin mine? Yo I ain't gon front, it's kinda beautiful
As for my relationship, I'm not going to lie, it's quite beautiful.

I'm not sayin that this is what I want you to do
I'm not trying to suggest that you should follow in my footsteps.

You had a love that didn't go your way
You experienced a relationship that didn't work out as planned.

You had negative personnel, dig what I say?
You dealt with someone who had a bad attitude and made things difficult.

I had someone in the past, don't you believe me
I also had someone in the past, do you trust me?

I gave her the game, she could take it or leave me
I gave her the opportunity to choose whether or not to stay in a relationship with me.

Sure as the rhythm of the beat fits my rhyme
Just as the rhythm of music fits into lyrics, my previous relationship fit into my life.

To her everytime, was buyin time
To her, every moment was just passing time.

She said buy me this that those them and whatever honey
She constantly asked me to buy her things and spend money on her.

You want WHAT? I know you got money
I was confused and skeptical when she kept asking me to buy her things, knowing I had money.

I used to say who you supposed to be takin me for
I used to question why she kept asking me to buy her things and what she thought of our relationship.

Take me for me, I'm posed to get love for free
I wanted her to love me for who I am, not because I had money.

Missin for a week then BOOM she appears
She would disappear for a week and then suddenly reappear without explanation.

Foolish jewels, and Polo gears, damn
She bought and wore expensive jewelry and clothing that I felt were unnecessary.

Where'd you get it? "I bought it" I said yeah
I asked her where she got the jewelry and clothing and she always replied that she bought them.

You live in the projects and your family gets welfare
She lived in a poor area and her family needed government assistance.

Need I say more people, end of the situation
I think the situation speaks for itself and there is nothing more to say.

Washed my hands clean of that aggravation
I decided to remove myself from that stressful situation and focus on moving forward.

Many places I laid my hat
I have lived and traveled to many different places.

Me, a gigolo, a male whore, nah I wouldn't of called me that
Although some people might call me a promiscuous man, I don't see myself that way.

Today I don't allow I make a love vow
Today, I don't allow myself to be in meaningless relationships and instead commit to true love.

My life has changed how? I'm with Charise now
My life has changed because I am now in a committed and loving relationship with Charise.

So have faith baby, my love protects ya
Have faith in me to protect and care for you in our relationship.

One of the ways, I givea little extra
One way that I show my love is by going above and beyond to make you happy.

Cheaters never win, they live a life of sin
Cheating is wrong and will lead to a life of guilt and wrongdoing.

Skeezin is for heathens, and loyalty's in
Flirting and being promiscuous is for immoral and unethical people, while being loyal in a relationship is virtuous.

I can hear y'all sayin yeah right Jaz enough is enough
I can imagine you not believing me or getting tired of hearing me talk about this.

You're talkin that brown stuff, but buss it
You might think that I am talking nonsense, but hear me out.

Singles should mingle and if they see a good thing
Single people should date and explore relationships, and if they find a good match,

They can carry on like nymphos on a one night fling
they can have a casual sexual relationship without any long-term commitment.

But someone who's committed you can't be wit it cause you
However, if you are already in a committed relationship, you can't engage in casual sexual relationships.

Can't have your cake and eat it too
You can't have the best of both worlds in a relationship.

And if you can the whole purpose is beat
Even if you are able to have the best of both worlds, the entire relationship is meaningless.

Cuz when you're eatin your cake it won't taste as sweet
If you try to have everything, you won't appreciate or enjoy what you have as much.

So if you really love someone, cheatin ain't smart
If you truly love someone, cheating is not a smart or moral choice.

Your relationship will tear apart, you'll break somebody's heart
Cheating will damage the relationship and hurt the other person involved.

So yo don't even start it, there is no reason
So don't even think about cheating or being unfaithful, there is no reason to ruin a good thing.

Love takes a lot you ain't got keep on skeezin
Love requires a lot of time, effort, and sacrifice, so don't waste your time being promiscuous.

Okay I'm packin up yo, end of lecture
Alright, I'm done talking now, end of lecture.

You got somebody, give a little extra
If you are in a committed relationship, show your love by going above and beyond to make your partner happy.
