lyrics

Verse 1: No need to ask/ I need you like a broken bone needs a cast/ I need you like a thief needs a mask/ like idle hands need a task/ no greener grass/ and really you can teach the class/ got the kind of qualities that a leader has/ I’m a need a lot more than a B to pass/ you the kind of fine I cant C surpass/ cmon/ tunnel vision whenever your in my isight/ find your way into every lyric that I write/ providing me with more vitamin D than the sun your the one I need kid you shine bright/ bright like a light house at midnight/ and still invite advice and insight/ it seems like your losing all the air in your windpipe/ blowing me away everyday/ with the way you do

Hook: The way you do/ the way you do/ the way you do/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ the way you do/ and dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ the way you do
Verse 2: no need to ask/ I need you like a director needs a cast/ I need you like a speech needed free at last/ like the hood need cheaper gas/ no greener grass/ and really you complete the math/ when I think about the things that I need to add/ the problem but the sum that I need to have/ steadfast and understand that the sea is vast/ cmon/ on a mission to never miss any highlights/ saying later to haters yea they can fly kites/ providing me with pure camaraderie/ its got to be your the all I need kid you shine bright/ bright like a light house at midnight/ and still invite advice and insight/ it seem like your losing all the air in your windpipe/ blowing me away everyday with the way you do

Hook: The way you do/ the way you do/ the way you do/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ the way you do/ and dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ the way you do

Bridge: I need your love baby right now cause cant no one else love me the way you do/and its true/ I need your love baby right now cause cant no one else love me the way you do/ the way you do/ you know its true

Verse 3: It’s official/ I’m convinced/ Jackie Mitchell/ Diana Prince/ gotta be with you/ I caught a glimpse/ somebody please check this lady fingerprints/ lady day/ on the charts/ upfront/ Rosa Parks/ so fly/ from the start/ I pray I dont lose you like Amilia Earhart/ cmon/ because I know that If I ever spend a night in hell/ you would be the first nurse like florence nightingale/ Tony Morrison the origin of writing well/ teaching us the basics hoping that we might excel/ on the right track like Wilma Rudolph/ Ann Sullivan coloring just a few thoughts/ you deserve to sit back and take your shoes off/ I got to give it to you for/ The way you do

Hook: The way you do/ the way you do/ the way you do/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ the way you do/ and dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ dont nobody do it/ the way you do
