Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What's up baby?
It's Ambrose in this bitch and uh
I'm bout to make ya panties leak to the (MaestroGotTheSauxe!)
Sound of this here beat (2-1!)
I know you love it baby
Just sit back and relax (J-A-Y!)
One question
Am I still the one for ya?
If love can really move mountains
It won't be hard to get it done for ya
I know us falling out isn't fun for ya
That's how I make it seem and I'm dumb for it
Then when you shut down
I got my mouth stuck out like I'm innocent
Deep down I know the one reason for it is me
I have the most problems admitting it
Doesn't matter how long we've been in this relationship
I can't keep doing the same stupid shit
And expect you to keep on forgiving it
Cause you won't forget it and I know that
My job as your man is to keep you secure
Not give you more reasons to hold back
Now your guard is up, you asking yourself
Am I loving too hard or not hard enough?
Is it something I'm doing?
Maybe it's me, maybe love's not meant for all of us
I know that you're hurt
But don't question your worth baby girl
I'm stuck with ya
The best decision that I've ever made
Was my choice to fall in love with ya
I really wanna lay here with you now
I really wanna lay with you!
Really wanna call you my boo now
You loyal to me you stay true!
I been
I been way too caught up in you
You been
You been way too in ya feelings be true

Shawty too bad when she up in that skirt
Mami be flipping that work
Mami be flipping that work
Yeah-ha-ha!
Mami be flipping that work
Yeah-ha-ha! (Yeah!)
She'll throw a fit if she don't get her way now
Talk a lot of shit but she stay down
Pull up to her crib, get to licking on her lips
She ain't got too much to say now
Your body is my playground
I'm Chris Brown when I take you down!
Who can do ya body like me? (Nobody!)
Show you that I don't play around
There's a meeting in my bedroom
But I'm tryna make a movie like Twista
You get butterflies when I'm around you
Ya knees still buckle when I kiss you (Mwah!)
You got the soft spot in my heart
I be tryna front like I don't miss you
I need to put as much effort into keeping you
As what I did to get you
Sometimes I take you for granted and I can acknowledge that
You the type to hang up on a nigga
Couple minutes pass
Unlock ya phone and then you're calling back
Tough love? I guess you could call it that
You really lucky I fuck with ya
Haven't been through this much with anyone else
Just shows how deep I'm still in love with you
