Luyện nghe bài hát You Never Know - Jean Grae

1]
She was on her way to a college graduate
Wouldn't even stop to to the average kid
The type of latina I'd sit and contemplate marriage
Fuck the horse and carriage shit, her was never for hire
Disciplined, intellectual beauty's what I
than Salma Hayek or Jennifer Lopez
Everyone told me, it to her was hopeless
At first I thought, she didn't mess with broke kids
The thug always talking about, how they smoke kids
But the kids got no play
"I'm not even interested" is her body language would say
around the way, gave 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
shit, and deny to everyone that they did it
'Cause they regreted the long list of niggaz they let hit it
And no one ever gave them shit McDonald's and did-dick
weed with 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 head for her, and there wasn't a

[Hook - Jean
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 chance again, I'd let you go
tight to your love, 'cause you never know

Her are brown and beautiful, yet empty and sad
I to talk to her occasionally, and she was glad
I wasn't just another nigga trying to get in it
So every now and then we'd stop and talk for a
I didn't a gimmick so the minutes turned to hours
On her birthday, I gave her a with flowers
Then I her out to dinner after her cousin's baby shower
We talked about, power to the and such
We spent more time together but it was enough
I tried to sneak a touch, or even cop a feel
I was too interested, in it real
Perfectly honest and complete, she would always me "carino,"
And never Technique, bought me a new book to read 2 or 3 weeks
Forever changing the of my thoughts when I speak
It was of her, I even deaded all of my freaks
She convinced me, to stop hangin' out on the
To stop and stealin', from people like you
Instead I took her out to the and the Bronxu
We sailed in (?) and the Metropolitan too
Got to the point when I was either her or my crew
So I one day, to tell her my feelings 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 only sob hysterically, holding me tight
I tried to speak, but she stop until I left sight
I felt a moth who got himself too close to the light
Except I didn't burn, I turned after that night

I on with my life, college and my career
Ended up locked up an animal for a year
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
her close in my dreams, but when I woke she disappeared
Just an empty cell until the state gave me parole in the
came back, in and on track
But the fact of the matter, is I still felt
Even after my mother, hugged me, cryin' at
My real niggaz would catch me thinkin', out of my
lots of different women, but I still felt alone
Relatively well-known around the New York
But I thinking of her and how we used to be down
The of her voice, and the beautiful smell of her hair
Though physically, somehow it was still there
I had to do something, because the was too much to bear
So I went and the building where she used to live
The looks a lot different after you do a bid
The way life done changed
While primitive minds (are) still stuck in the same
Like her who was on the corner slangin' cocaine
Stepped in the lobby and tapped the button next to her last
Her mom me up and hugged me up, like a mother oughta
But her expression changed, when I asked about her daughter

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

"By the you get to read this, I'll probably be dead
But when you left in '97 a of me went to Heaven
I God at least I got to know what love really was
But it hurt me, to see what love really does
'Cause even though we never made love, you were all there was
It was because I loved you so much I had to make you leave
You made me the way I thought, you made me want 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 life was to be
Baby don't you see, I had a blood transfusion left me with HIV
the end exists for me since late in 1993
I died a virgin, I wish I given myself to you
I in the hospital because there was no one else but you
that you'll meet me in paradise inevitably
No matter what, I'll keep your forever with me"

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