Luyện nghe bài hát You Never Know - Jean Grae

1]
She was on her way to a college graduate
even stop to talk to the average kid
The type of latina I'd sit and contemplate marriage
Fuck the horse and carriage shit, her love was for hire
Disciplined, intellectual beauty's what I
Flyer than Salma or Jennifer Lopez
Everyone told me, kickin' it to her was
At first I just thought, she didn't mess with kids
The thug niggaz always talking about, how they smoke
But the rich-sniff-coke got no play
"I'm not even interested" is what her body language say
Everyone around the way, up trying to get in it
It didn't how good your game was, she wasn't with it
On the block, was jealous, but wouldn't admit it
Talk shit, and deny to everyone they did it
'Cause they regreted the long list of niggaz that let hit it
And no one ever gave shit except McDonald's and did-dick
Smoking weed with of envy, whenever they lit it
She intelligently and they bit it, always trying to copy
But when tried to use her vocab, they sounded sloppy
She had a style, all her own, respectful and
I was sick in the head for her, and there wasn't a

[Hook - Jean
you know that, time waits for no man
Not fate, it's all
I'm blessed to know you
I've and I've lost just to hold you all night
find, a reason why
God came, to you and I
If I had the chance again, I'd let you go
Hold to your love, 'cause you never know

Her eyes are brown and beautiful, yet and sad
I to talk to her occasionally, and she was glad
That I wasn't another nigga trying to get in it
So now and then we'd stop and talk for a minute
I didn't have a gimmick so the turned to hours
On her birthday, I her a poem with flowers
Then I took her out to dinner after her cousin's shower
We about, power to the people and such
We spent more time but it was never enough
I never tried to a touch, or even cop a feel
I was too interested, in it real
Perfectly honest and complete, she always call me "carino,"
And Technique, bought me a new book to read every 2 or 3 weeks
changing the expression of my thoughts when I speak
It was because of her, I even all of my freaks
She convinced me, to stop hangin' out on the
To stop robbin' and stealin', people like you
I took her out to the Apollo and the Bronxu
We sailed in (?) and the Metropolitan too
Got to the point when I was either her or my crew
So I decided one day, to tell her my feelings was
I couldn't live her so I told her, facing my fears
But honey's only response, was a face full of
She could only sob hysterically, me tight
I tried to speak, but she wouldn't stop until I left
I felt like a moth who got himself too close to the
Except I didn't burn, I turned after that night

I on with my life, college and my career
Ended up up like an animal for a year
Where the C.O.'s talk to you like they were the
Then I got sent to the hole, when my exit was
At night in my cell, I'd close my and I'd see her
Hold her close in my dreams, but when I woke she
Just an cell until the state gave me parole in the summer
back, in tact and on track
But the fact of the matter, is I still felt
Even after my mother, hugged me, cryin' at
My real niggaz catch me thinkin', out of my zone
lots of different women, but I still felt alone
Relatively well-known the New York underground
But I kept thinking of her and how we used to be
The of her voice, and the beautiful smell of her hair
Though gone physically, it was still there
I had to do something, the shit was too much to bear
So I went and visited the building where she to live
The world looks a lot different you do a bid
The way your life changed
primitive minds (are) still stuck in the same game
Like her who was on the corner slangin' cocaine
Stepped in the lobby and tapped the button to her last name
Her mom buzzed me up and hugged me up, like a oughta
But her facial expression changed, when I asked her daughter

She told me there was a note for me, that was left behind
She had it there waiting, for such a long time
I was inclined to ask about it but she it up first
I saw a tear swelling up in her eye, and then she
She told me the letter was and I started thinking the worst
Reversed my position, stepped and opened the door
And sure enough there was an with my name on the floor
"Nobody loves you more me carino" is what the letter said

"By the time you get to read this, I'll probably be
But when you left in '97 a part of me to Heaven
I thank God at least I got to know what really was
But it me, to see what true love really does
'Cause though we never made love, you were all that there was
It was because I loved you so that I had to make you leave
You made me doubt the way I thought, you made me to believe
And then I up, and I let you get close to me
It was hard to not be openly when people to me
This was not the way I thought my was supposed to be
Baby don't you see, I had a blood transfusion that left me HIV
Hoped the end exists for me since late in
I died a virgin, I wish I could've myself to you
I cried in the hospital because there was no one but you
Promise you'll meet me in paradise inevitably
No matter what, I'll keep your love with me"

What happened for the rest of the day is a blur
But I remember that I was dead, instead of her
She was on August 3rd
The story ends without a
And now you know why Technique, don't fucking fall in love with
the person that you love closely if they're next to you
The one you love, not the that'll simply have sex with you
Appreciate them to the fullest extent, and beyond
'Cause you never know what you got, until it's gone
