Excuse me baby, i don't mean to stare
but i know that i know u from somewhere
Somewhere like what place
u don't know me u have never seen my face
Faces i don't forget cuz i'm a mova and a shaka
girl u so fine and that aint no line i aint tryin to be no playa
A playa you're not you can take those tired lines home
cuz u aint smooth not close to cool so u can leave me alone
If alone is what u want to be that is fine by me
cuz there's other fish in the sea
if u wanna be stuck up i aint gonna fuss
cuz u aint but about a three
This three caught your eye and we both know why just a minute ago
i see yo game is just that lame and i just bruised yo ego
My ego is straight u just tryin to hate but i'm gonna be ok
cuz i'm a good man for some woman and i'm gonna have one someday
U see there's more to me that just a pretty face
i have nothing but good intentions that come from a good place
my heart is what i'm referring to and i was prepared to give it to u
but i need someone that's gonna be true
i need someone who doesn't play games
i need someone who's proud of herself and not ashamed
to speak her mind and when it's time she'll let u know
that it is fine to hold tight but at times u have to let go
i need someone who will help me out
i need someone to tell me she's proud
when i overachieve and become the man
when i asset myself and take a stand
through the good and the bad
through the happy and sad
through the clears days and clouds of smoke
when i am rich but especially now that i am broke
i need someone who doesn't think of herself
who likes to get but won't forget to give to someone else
i need someone who wants to share my life
and understands i'll be committed to my wife
with love that doesn't have conditions or terms
and throughout our relationship we will continue to learn
i need someone who knows when to comfort and when to let me be
but most of all i need someone who wants and needs me
I understand that you're a man and the things you say to me
but open your ears and make sure u hear the things that i need
I need someone who will treat me with respect
who won't talk to me any kind of way and treat me like less
i mean don't treat me like i'm less because i'm a woman
cuz i'm a strong black woman i can do anything he can
i need someone who shares his feeling his thoughts and everything else as well
i need someone who i can share with and be sure he won't tell
i need someone who will treat me like a nubian queen
who loves my head.. my toes.. and everything in-between
he likes my smile.. my style.. my grace
and even my beautiful face
he understands that my bad mood may be from something in the past
but he better give me space or he may need a cast
i need a man who's not threatened by my success
and when i beat him at something he's not afraid to confess that i am the best
i need a man who won't be runnin the streets
tryin to pick up every hoochie he meets
i need someone who knows it's not him but we
but most of all i need someone who loves me for me
Well i think i can be all that for u
if u give me some time i'll show u that's true
Well that's fine cuz i see you're a man not a boy
but i have just one question..... are u employed?
but i know that i know u from somewhere
Somewhere like what place
