Partners For Life

I've been thinkin', times is hard
'Fore it get worse and it fall apart
Maybe you should quit your job and do what's right
And make you my partner for life

So we can chill and have a little fun
So we can chill and have some little ones
So we can chill until our living's done

Listen to me baby, let's go
Girl, maybe we should think about it
Boo, you know what? What?

The day when I first seen you
You know I was stammed but I didn't mean to
Back then it wasn't oh, so fair
You came through like some good clean air

Skin softer than the softest fabrics
You heard about me, how I ball like the Dallas Mavericks
Sayin' anything you want, you can have it
That's Harlem World, I get on my grizzly savage, see?

From the first day, we laid eyes on each other
At the office, I knew we was gon' be lovers
Mark Hotel, under the covers
You said I was cool and not like a lotta them brothers

Who used and abused you and took you for granted
See you a goddess, that's why you was put on this planet
Since you got me all sentimental

I've been thinkin', times is hard
'Fore it get worse and it fall apart
Maybe you should quit your job and do what's right
And make you my partner for life

So we can chill and have a little fun
So we can chill and have some little ones
So we can chill until our living's done

C'mon, don't stop
Girl, maybe we should think about it

You're so amazin'
All I can see is us now in the sun just grazin'
Boo, your brown complexion, I never seen a
Same color as coffee, a teaspoon of creamer

'Member when I had the Beamer?
Goin' through tough times and knowin' the other side was greener
We had a dream, we pursued it
'Member that conversation, all or nothin' before we lose it?

The soft words like music
Came at a time I needed soothin', soul, body and mind
At times I felt violent, you kept me in line
Wherever I went, you wasn't far behind

Girl, we got a bond no one can break
And I'm sayin', I pray to God every night we make it
I'm hooked and I don't wanna shake you

Yeah, I've been doin' a lot of thinkin' lately, baby, yeah
Now I know I done put you through a lot of shit
I know it's hard fuckin' with a nigga like me
Yeah, you get a lot of respect for that shit
Ridin' with a nigga, you know, you might as well

Now sit back and reflect on all our accomplishments
The mansions, the plush apartments
And the big boats and the cases of whole klicko
I don't ever wanna let you go

It's a certain kind of feelin', you know that feelin' you get
When got it right, then you know what's what
You got me on some lay low stuff
You stood by me all through that J-Lo stuff

Brush your shoulders off, girl, go 'head and brush 'em
Without you around, I can't function
We gon' be together 'til the day we die
And when they put us in the ground, we'll be side by side

I never had a girl make me feel like you
And every day I wake up, I feel brand new
I live for you and I'll die for you too
I love you girl

I've been thinkin', times is hard
'Fore it get worse and it fall apart
Maybe you should quit your job and do what's right
And make you my partner for life

So we can chill and have a little fun
So we can chill and have some little ones
So we can chill until our living's done

Girl, maybe we should think about it
Oh, we could be down for life
Have a couple kids and make you my wife, baby
You're beautiful, lady
My beautiful, so wonderful, I love you so

Oh, we could be down for life
Have a couple kids and make you my wife, baby
You're beautiful, lady
Baby, let's chill, baby, let's chill
Baby, that's real forever
