Gotta be something for me to write this
Queen, I ain't seen you in a minute
Wrote this letter, and finally decide to send it
Signed, sealed, delivered for us to grow together
Love has no limit, let's spend it slow forever
I know your heart is weathered by what studs did to you
I ain't gon' solve 'em, 'cause I probably did it too
Because of you, feelings I handle with care
Some niggas recognize the light but they can't handle the glare
You know I ain't the type to walk around with matching shirts
And relationship is effort, I will match your work
I wanna be the one to make you happiest and hurt you the most
They say the end is near, it's important that we close
To the most high
Regardless of what happen, on Him let's rely
There are times, when you'll need someone (yeah)
I will be by your side (for sure, for sure)
There is a light that shines
Special for you and me
Yo, yo, check it
It's important we communicate
And tune the fate of this union to the right pitch
I never call you my bitch or even my boo
There's so much in a name and so much more in you
Few understand the union of woman and man
And sex and a tingle is where they assumin' it land
But that's fly by night for you and the sky I write
For in these cold Chi night's moon, you my light
If heaven had a height you would be that tall
Ghetto to coffee shop, through you I see that all
Let's stick to understanding and we won't fall
For better or worse times, I hope to me you call
So I pray every day more than anything
Friends will stay as we begin to lay
This foundation for a family, love ain't simple
Why can't it be anything worth having you work at annually?
Granted we known each other for some time
It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine
There are times, when you'll need someone
I will be by your side, oh, darling
There is a light that shines (yeah)
Special for you and me
Yo, yo, check it
It's kind of fresh you listen to more than hip-hop
And I can catch you in the mix from beauty to thrift shop
Plus you shit pop when it's time to, thinking you fresh
Suggesting beats I should rhyme to
At times when I'm lost I try to find you
You know to give me space when it's time to
My heart's dictionary defines you, it's love and happiness
Truthfully it's hard tryna practice abstinence
The time we committed love, it was real good
Had to be for me to arrive and it still feel good
I know the sex ain't gon' keep you, but as my equal
It's how I must treat you
As my reflection in light I'ma lead you
And whatever's right, I'ma feed you

Non ho mai conosciuto un amo, amo-amo, un amore come questo

Regina, non ti vedo da un minuto
Wrote this letter, and finally decide to send it

Love has no limit, let's spend it slow forever
L'amore non ha limiti, passiamolo lentamente per sempre
I know your heart is weathered by what studs did to you
So che il tuo cuore è logorato da quello che gli stalloni ti hanno fatto
I ain't gon' solve 'em, 'cause I probably did it too

Because of you, feelings I handle with care
A causa di te, i sentimenti li tratto con cura
Some niggas recognize the light but they can't handle the glare
Alcuni neri riconoscono la luce ma non riescono a gestire l'abbagliamento
You know I ain't the type to walk around with matching shirts

I never call you my bitch or even my boo
Non ti chiamo mai mia cagna o anche mia boo
There's so much in a name and so much more in you
C'è così tanto in un nome e molto di più in te
Few understand the union of woman and man
Pochi capiscono l'unione di donna e uomo
And sex and a tingle is where they assumin' it land
E il sesso e un formicolio è dove presumono che atterri
But that's fly by night for you and the sky I write
Ma è una cosa da volo notturno per te e il cielo che scrivo
For in these cold Chi night's moon, you my light
Per in queste fredde notti di Chi, luna, sei la mia luce
If heaven had a height you would be that tall

In più tu fai pop quando è il momento, pensando di essere fresco
Suggesting beats I should rhyme to
Suggerendo battute a cui dovrei rimare
