Cee & Bekah - A Matter Of Time lyrics

[Verse 1: Cee] Yeah, listen I can imagine if I had a little me, a new life I created Me and mama's live vessel of inspiration, we made it I can picture you right now, skin a milky coffee brown And your mother's big beautiful eyes I'm talking 'bout the blue-tinged, almond-shaped diamonds looking back at me A smile always in 'em while you giggling happily You're the physical embodiment, perfection that god gave Please never forget that your conception was love created We a couple but a family, I doubt it We'd love to have you now but finances won't allow it Coz there's nothing in this world that my child just won't have We working hard at it so the struggle you don't grasp And our lives are a testament to hers Plus I kinda always felt that we'd be blessed with a girl First born, so proud and you ain't even exist yet But maybe in our hearts you've been living and baiting each breath And right now we can't give you all you needing Coz we building and we tryina make something you can believe in And we doing alright but I'm knowing it's not enough yet We gon' get there and prolly sooner than y'all expected I must admit I get concerned how the world is Sometimes it's not a nice place for a child to grow up in So that's why we tryina stack paper, yeah baby No relying on employment, want a choice where we raise ya Uh, I bet you're talented with a pa**ion for music And well, it's in your blood so it's nothing to you kid I hope you'll have a voice like your mother do And I'll be up front in the crowd, wide-grinning coz I'm watching you And yeah I know this sounding quite full on But that's how I'm feeling so it's only right in a song And I'm hoping one day that you'll hear it And realise that you more than just special, you a blessing infinite, Aaliyah [Hook: Bekah] Baby girl I know that you're gonna shine I love you so much even though you're not yet mine Baby girl, it's just a matter of time, a matter of time Baby girl I know that you're gonna shine I love you so much even though you're not yet mine Baby girl, it's just a matter of time, a matter of time Ooooh, a matter of time Ooooh, a matter of time [Verse 2: Bekah] Even though you're in the future At times I wish you were here There's so many things I wanna teach ya Like how to read and how to sing I try to picture just how you'd look Have your daddy's eyes or your mother's smile At the end of the day it really doesn't matter What matters is when you're here, you're in my arms [Hook: Bekah] Baby girl I know that you're gonna shine I love you so much even though you're not yet mine Baby girl, it's just a matter of time, a matter of time Baby girl I know that you're gonna shine I love you so much even though you're not yet mine Baby girl, it's just a matter of time, a matter of time Ooooh, a matter of time Ooooh, a matter of time
