I was cool in them streets and streets y'all
Yeah I was cooling them clubs
Real talk I wasn't thinking nothing 'bout love
I didn't want nobody tryin' to partake in my stuff
I thought an occasional one-night stand would be enough
Oh but one day I, I met this girl and she ruined my philosophy
It caught me by surprise
And now my heart skips a beat when she comes a round
I never thought that I'd be ready to settle down
See I was about to find myself alone,
But I found myself a love
It's gonna take a minute to evolve
But I'd rather have a love than nothing at all
I'm ready for a love of my own yeah
Can't stay in this place forever
Even though I want to, I just see us together
I'd rather have a love, than live a life alone
Yeah Yeah Yeah
See, I was raised by a good one
Momma told me what a real man should be
She said son pick one, and treat her like me
But I took all of her wisdom, and used it for selfish gains
And I know if she saw this pimpin', she's be ashamed
But now I found her
I found this girl and she ruined my philosophy
It caught me by surprise
My heart skips a beat when she comes a round
I never thought that I'd be ready to settle down
I was about to find myself alone,
But I found myself a love
It's gonna take a minute to evolve
But I'd rather have a love than nothing at all
I'm ready for a love of my own yeah
Can't stay in this place forever
Even though I want to, I just see us together
And I'd rather have a love, than live a life alone
On the one hand I could chose to be the guy
that only chases frivolous pleasure
But on the other hand, need to build a dream with
true love and affection
I know it's going to be quite a challenge
I know it's gonna take some time
But I'm here and I'm ready to change
Cause I know I've found myself a love
It's gonna take a minute to evolve
But I'd rather have a love than nothing at all
I'm ready for a love of my own yeah
Can't stay in this place forever
Even though I want to, I just see us together
And I'd rather have a love, than live a life alone
Outro
It's gonna take a minute to evolve
But I'd rather have a love than nothing at all
I'm ready for a love of my own
