Luyện nghe bài hát You Never Know - Jean Grae

1]
She was on her way to a college graduate
Wouldn't even stop to talk to the kid
The type of latina I'd sit and contemplate marriage
Fuck the horse and carriage shit, her was never for hire
Disciplined, intellectual what I desire
than Salma Hayek or Jennifer Lopez
Everyone me, kickin' it to her was hopeless
At first I just thought, she didn't mess with kids
The thug niggaz always talking about, how smoke kids
But the kids got no play
"I'm not even interested" is what her body would say
Everyone the way, gave up trying to get in it
It didn't matter how good game was, she wasn't with it
On the block, was jealous, but wouldn't admit it
shit, and deny to everyone that they did it
'Cause they regreted the long of niggaz that they let hit it
And no one ever gave them shit except McDonald's and
Smoking weed thoughts of envy, whenever they lit it
She smoked intelligently and they bit it, always trying to
But when they tried to use her vocab, they sloppy
She had a style, all her own, respectful and
I was sick in the for her, and there wasn't a cure

[Hook - Grae]
Don't you know that, waits for no man
Not fate, it's all
I'm just 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 again, I'd never let you go
Hold tight to love, 'cause you never know

Her are brown and beautiful, yet empty and sad
I used to to her occasionally, and she was glad
That I wasn't just another trying to get in it
So every now and then we'd and talk for a minute
I have a gimmick so the minutes turned to hours
On her birthday, I gave her a with flowers
Then I took her out to after her cousin's baby shower
We talked about, power to the and such
We spent more time together but it was never
I never tried to a touch, or even cop a feel
I was too interested, in keeping it
honest and complete, she would always call me "carino,"
And never Technique, bought me a new to read every 2 or 3 weeks
Forever the expression of my thoughts when I speak
It was because of her, I even deaded all of my
She convinced me, to hangin' out on the streets
To stop robbin' and stealin', people like you
Instead I took her out to the and the Bronxu
We sailed in Barrio (?) and the too
Got to the point when I was either with her or my
So I decided one day, to tell her my was true
I couldn't live without her so I told her, 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 until I left sight
I felt a moth who got himself too close to the light
Except I didn't burn, I turned cold after that

I went on with my life, college and my
Ended up locked up like an animal for a
Where the C.O.'s talk to you like they the overseer
I got sent to the hole, when my exit was near
At in my cell, I'd close my eyes and I'd see her
Hold her close in my dreams, but when I she disappeared
Just an empty cell until the state me parole in the summer
came back, in and on track
But the of the matter, is I still felt cold
Even after my mother, hugged me, cryin' at
My real niggaz would catch me thinkin', out of my
Fuckin' lots of different women, but I felt alone
Relatively well-known around the New underground
But I kept of her and how we used to be down
The sound of her voice, and the beautiful smell of her
Though gone physically, somehow it was there
I had to do something, because the shit was too much to
So I went and visited the building where she used to
The looks a lot different after you do a bid
The way life done changed
While primitive minds (are) still stuck in the game
Like her cousin who was on the corner slangin'
Stepped in the lobby and tapped the next to her last name
Her mom buzzed me up and hugged me up, like a oughta
But her facial expression changed, when I asked about her

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

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

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