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 of latina I'd sit and contemplate marriage with
the horse and carriage shit, her love was never for hire
Disciplined, intellectual beauty's what I
Flyer than Salma Hayek or Jennifer
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 smoke kids
But the rich-sniff-coke got no play
"I'm not interested" is what her body language would say
Everyone around the way, gave up to get in it
It didn't matter how good your game was, she wasn't it
On the block, bitches was jealous, but wouldn't it
Talk shit, and deny to that they did it
'Cause regreted the long list of niggaz that they let hit it
And no one ever gave them shit except McDonald's and
Smoking with thoughts of envy, whenever they lit it
She smoked intelligently and they bit it, always to copy
But when they to use her vocab, they sounded sloppy
She had a style, all her own, and pure
I was sick in the head for her, and wasn't a cure

[Hook - Jean
you know that, time waits for no man
Not fate, it's all
I'm blessed just to you
I've loved and I've lost to hold you all night
Can't find, a 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 just another nigga to get in it
So every now and then we'd stop and for a minute
I have a gimmick so the minutes turned to hours
On her birthday, I gave her a poem with
Then I took her out to dinner after her cousin's baby
We talked about, power to the and such
We spent more together but it was never enough
I never tried to sneak a touch, or even cop a
I was too interested, in keeping it
Perfectly honest and complete, she would call me "carino,"
And never Technique, bought me a new book to read every 2 or 3
Forever changing the expression of my thoughts I speak
It was of her, I even deaded all of my freaks
She convinced me, to stop hangin' out on the
To robbin' and stealin', from people like you
Instead I took her out to the Apollo and the
We sailed in Barrio (?) and the too
Got to the point I was either with her or my crew
So I decided one day, to tell her my feelings was
I couldn't live without her so I her, facing my fears
But honey's only response, was a face of tears
She could sob hysterically, holding me tight
I tried to speak, but she wouldn't until I left sight
I felt like a who got himself too close to the light
Except I burn, I turned cold after that night

I went on with my life, college and my
Ended up locked up an animal for a year
Where the C.O.'s talk to you like were the overseer
Then I got sent to the hole, when my exit was
At night in my cell, I'd my eyes and I'd see her
her close in my dreams, but when I woke she disappeared
Just an cell until the state gave me parole in the summer
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 catch me thinkin', out of my zone
Fuckin' lots of different women, but I felt alone
Relatively well-known the New York underground
But I thinking of her and how we used to be down
The of her voice, and the beautiful smell of her hair
Though gone physically, it was still there
I had to do something, because the shit was too to bear
So I went and the building where she used to live
The world a lot different after you do a bid
The way life done changed
While minds (are) still stuck in the same game
Like her who was on the corner slangin' cocaine
Stepped in the and tapped the button next to her last name
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, was left behind
She had it there waiting, for such a long time
I was to ask about it but she brought 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
my position, stepped over and opened the door
And sure enough there was an envelope with my name on the
"Nobody loves you more than me carino" is what the said

"By the time you get to read this, probably be dead
But when you in '97 a part of me went to Heaven
I thank God at 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 that was
It was because I you so much that I had to make you leave
You made me 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 people to me
This was not the way I thought my life was to be
Baby don't you see, I had a blood that left me with HIV
Hoped the end for me since late in 1993
I died a virgin, I wish I given myself to you
I cried in the hospital because there was no one but you
Promise that meet me in paradise inevitably
No matter what, I'll keep your love forever me"

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