Dave East - The Only Thing lyrics

[Intro] Uh, I fell in love with you early, it's dark and hell is hot Around '97 fiends selling soap and selling socks The only thing that kept me cool in this cold world The streets got me under influence, I've been ruined [Bridge] I get to confessing my love And you start to wonder expressing your questions Like why? Like I get to confessing my love And you start to wonder expressing your questions Like why? Like Is that what you need love for? What do you need? [Hook] All I want is you baby You're the only one that keeps me cool baby Keep me on my toes, I want you baby Love I had the right to baby Love you baby You're the only one that keeps me cool baby Keep me on my toes, I want you I want you [Verse 1] The culture what I care about The cyphers on the stair cases Me and my man got knocked, we had to share cases I do it for the love, the hate keep the balance right Red wine dining, it feel like a steak and salad night, uhm Nothing in this world can compare to the music Imagine changing your life after you said you'd do it More respect than love so I ain't complaining I'm vacation planting 'toes out in the Caymans Thousands Islands, been violent long as I can remember When your heat not working that's a different December I got love for the game, I keep my mind humble Realizing I'm surviving in a wild jungle No stressing, learn lessons on how to save it Now I got your favorite models naked Survival is amazing This Rollie like the ring of a champion I used to tuck all of my work up under the Champion Dumb wild n***a [Hook] All I want is you baby You're the only one that keeps me cool baby Keep me on my toes, I want you baby Love I had the right to baby Love you baby You're the only one that keeps me cool baby Keep me on my toes, I want you I want you [Verse 2] We just need enough for us to break down Shake the town, even them other n***as relate now Hate the small talk before they ask for something Baby, don't ask me nothing Came up off a couple grams, I'm used to not having nothing My moms and pops tried they best but I wanted more n***as rather go shopping, I'm tryna own the store I'm tryna own some more, equity, real estate I'm investing in I go to work like I'm Mexican Always get amnesia when they come in for questioning Looking for medicine Only rookie getting respect from the veterans We was raw measuring, the scale broke, eyeball it You afraid of contact, nobody fouled you so why call it? Money flowing, I was staring at that white Taurus Fiji bottles, I'm bougie, please get the white water Went from a dime to a five after the lights caught her Miami, we made a movie, I think I like Florida [Bridge] I get to confessing my love And you start to wonder expressing your questions Like why? Why? I get to confessing my love And you start to wonder expressing your questions Like why? Why?
