Your Good Thing
RZA / Flatbush Zombies Lyrics
Jump to: Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cause somebody else will
You don't have to love me when I want it, no
Cause somebody else will
Your so called friends say you don't need it
When all the time they're trying to get it
Look out
Your real good thing is about to come to an end
All those nites I watched the four walls
I did not have to watch them all alone
When other men said they wanted me (whenever someone said)
I didn't have to tell them I was your very own (think that I was)
You have all the love that I've got baby
Even ice melts to water and gets hot
Look out
Your good
Gettin' myself back together
Is going to be a big problem I know
But when the right man says he wants me
You can bet I won't tell him no
Cause your real good
I don't have to beg you to hold me
I shouldn't have to plead with you to show affection towards me
Cause somebody else will
since there are others who are willing to provide the love and support I need
You don't have to love me when I want it, no
you're not obligated to express love towards me whenever I desire it
Cause somebody else will
as there are people out there who are willing to meet my emotional needs
Your so called friends say you don't need it
your supposed friends claim you don't require this relationship
When all the time they're trying to get it
yet they are secretly trying to undermine this connection for their own benefit
Your good thing is about to come to an end
your valued relationship is on the brink of collapse
Your real good thing is about to come to an end
your truly meaningful connection is about to be destroyed
All those nites I watched the four walls
the nights I spent staring at the walls in solitude
I did not have to watch them all alone
I didn't have to endure that loneliness by myself
When other men said they wanted me
when other suitors expressed interest in me
I didn't have to tell them I was your very own
I didn't feel the need to inform them that I belonged to you
You have all the love that I've got baby
you possess all the affection that I can offer, darling
Even ice melts to water and gets hot
even the coldest of hearts can thaw and become passionate
Gettin' myself back together
I must work on rebuilding myself
Is going to be a big problem I know
it will undoubtedly pose a significant challenge
But when the right man says he wants me
however, when the perfect partner expresses interest in me
You can bet I won't tell him no
rest assured, I won't reject him
