You & Me
LL Cool J feat. Kelly Price Lyrics

Damn, you and your man had beef
You and your man had a conflict

So he left you Uptown, teary eyed, on the back streets
He abandoned you, leaving you emotionally distraught in a neglected area

For me to scoop up in the Bentley drop
I picked you up in my luxurious Bentley convertible

Long as God hold me down you know I had to stop
I had to stop and help you, as long as God supports me

What the deal ma? You want to use my cell?
What's up? Do you want to borrow my cellphone?

You running solo? This block foul as hell
Are you alone? This neighborhood is dangerous

You said my ex be beating on me
You mentioned how your ex-boyfriend physically abused you

He mad jealous even though he be cheating on me
He's insanely jealous, even though he cheats on you

I said miss, let me tell you something
Miss, let me share something with you

Bout who's making major moves and who's fronting
About who's achieving significant success and who's pretending

Huh, who's talking loud but ain't saying nothing
Who's speaking confidently but not saying anything meaningful

And those who get the one they want but keep fronting
And those who have what they desire but continue to pretend

He don't appreciate the well til it run dry
He doesn't appreciate something valuable until it's gone

Love is blind, it's hard to say goodbye {goodbye}
Love can make it difficult to end a relationship

But smart birds choose to fly
But intelligent individuals choose to move on

Cause we living in the hood girlfriend, it's do or die
Because we're living in a dangerous neighborhood, it's a matter of survival

Here's my definition, of love everlasting
Here's my interpretation of enduring love

I would trade all my cash in, for passion
I would give up all my money for intense love

Tiffany jewels and designer fashions
Expensive jewelry and high-end fashion

To hear happiness is mine for the asking
To experience the joy that is readily available

Every day on my knees I pray
Every day, I kneel and pray

That I would run into someone that make me feel this way
That I would meet someone who makes me feel the same

What you think, you want to ride with L?
What do you think? Do you want to be with me?

Some things are meant to be baby, you never can tell
Certain things are destined to happen, you never know

{I want to ride, with you baby}
I want to be with you, baby

Every night, every day
Every night, every day

I just sit and dream about you
I simply sit and daydream about you

You and me, you and me
You and me, just the two of us

Hold me tight, ecstasy
Embrace me tightly, experiencing intense pleasure

Making love til ever after
Engaging in intimate acts until the end of time

Baby you and me, yeah, you and me
Baby, it's just you and me

Now we dipping on the FDR
Now we're driving on the FDR Drive in New York City

It's one of them lucky nights when you can peep out the stars
It's one of those fortunate nights when you can see the stars

We speak without talking and the world is ours
We communicate without words and feel like we own the world

When I glance over at ya I can feel your power
When I look at you, I can sense your strength

You scheming, L want a one-night stand
You're plotting, wanting a short-term romantic encounter with me

I'm scheming, she probably in love with her man
I'm plotting, thinking she's probably in love with her partner

But we keep on rolling, hoping there's something more
But we continue moving forward, hoping for a deeper connection

Dreaming about tomorrow and what life got in store
Imagining the future and what life has in store for us

Living, no drama, we can chill, relax
Living without conflict, we can relax and unwind

Sex all night in the morn' count stacks
Engaging in sexual activities all night and then counting money in the morning

Sip Grand Marnier and maybe puff a dime sack
Drinking Grand Marnier liqueur and possibly smoking marijuana

But only in moderation, we ain't living like that, ya know?
But only in moderation, we're not living recklessly, you know?

We jetted up the tavern on the green
We quickly went to the Tavern on the Green

To talk about love cause the game's extreme
To discuss love because it can be intense and challenging

Domestic abuse and everything in between
Physical violence within relationships and all related matters

Cause I want you to think of me when you need a shoulder to lean on
Because I want you to turn to me for support when you need it

I'm from Queens, I'ma rep to the fullest
I'm from Queens, and I will represent it completely

But I'd rather chill with you, 'stead of dodging bullets
But I'd prefer to relax with you instead of avoiding dangerous situations

Glock in the stash I don't really want to pull it
I have a gun hidden, but I don't really want to use it

On some so-called thug cat, that's faker than acrylics
On a person pretending to be tough, who is as fake as acrylic nails

He said your fam' be riding your nerves
He said your family constantly irritates you

And you hate him for never giving you the life you deserve
And you resent him for not providing the life you deserve

Remember, the one who hold a grudge is foul
Remember, the person who holds a grudge is bitter

And everything you ever wanted is in front of you now
And everything you've ever desired is right in front of you now

Whats up?
What's going on?

I promise you, dreams do come true
I assure you, dreams can become reality

There's trials and tribulations that we all go through
We all experience struggles and challenges

When your heart's bleeding, how could the sky seem blue?
When you're heartbroken, it's difficult to see the positivity

But listen up shorty, this is what I want to do
But listen carefully, this is what I want to do

Be there for you, baby care for you
I want to be there for you, take care of you

When my dogs stare at you never sharing you
When my friends look at you, they won't take you away from me

And to my ex-girlfriend, never comparing you
And to my former girlfriend, I'll never compare you

And do the things that your ex never dared to do
And do the things your ex never had the courage to do

Time to bounce baby, I'm taking you home
It's time to leave, baby, I'm taking you home

Look at the moonlight sparkle on the 20 inch chrome
Observe the moonlight reflecting on the shiny, 20-inch rims

The rocks on my hand got a life of they own
The diamonds on my hand have a captivating allure

Plus the blend tape's bumping and it's setting the tone
In addition, the music on the mixtape is playing loudly, creating a particular atmosphere

Should I jet to the hotel, is now the right time
Should I quickly go to the hotel, is it the appropriate moment

Or should I be patient and explore your mind?
Or should I wait and get to know you better?

You said you grew up in the ghetto and it hurt your heart
You mentioned that you were raised in a disadvantaged area and it was emotionally painful

Tried to live smart but your dreams fell apart
You attempted to make wise choices, but your aspirations crumbled

You dated hustlers and brought 'em customers
You were involved with individuals involved in illegal activities and connected them with clients

They totally destroyed whatever trust their was
They completely ruined whatever trust was present

Now you hate men and everything they stand for
Now you despise men and everything they represent

Cause you want to be treated like a queen, not a whore
Because you want to be respected and valued, not objectified

Close your eyes, don't be afraid to dream
Close your eyes, don't hesitate to imagine

Open your heart to this cat from Queens
Open your heart to me, a guy from Queens

Whatever you want to do, however you want to do it
Whatever you want to accomplish, however you want to achieve it

Back to back baby, we can get each other through it
Side by side, baby, we can support each other through it

Know mean? Word up
Do you understand? Absolutely

Yeah, yeah
Yes, yes

See'mon, see'mon
Come on, come on

See'mon, see'mon
Come on, come on

I just want you to think about that, ya know what I'm saying?
I just want you to contemplate that, do you understand?

Late at night when you laying there
Late at night when you're lying there

And you feel like the whole world is falling around you
And you feel like everything is collapsing around you

Remember these words that I said
Recall the words that I spoke

There's somebody out there for you baby
There's someone out there for you, baby

Might be me, you never know
It might be me, you can never be certain

Word up, stay strong shorty
Absolutely, stay strong, young woman

Keep your eyes up to the sky, know what I'm saying?
Direct your gaze towards the sky, do you understand?

Don't let nobody tell you you can't make it
Don't allow anyone to discourage you from achieving success

And don't let nobody around you tell you
And don't allow the people around you to tell you

That it ain't possible to make your dreams come true
That it's impossible to fulfill your dreams

Word up
Absolutely

Know mean? That's real
Do you understand? That's genuine

Queens represent, rock on
Representing Queens, continue to excel
