Phonte - Sweet You lyrics

[Sample] What could be sweeter than you? [Verse 1: Phonte] Mic check, is this thing on? I ain’t even know if I would rap or just sing on It took me awhile but now I’m getting my swing on Icarus in increments sometimes I put wings on Every hero ain’t a hero ’til there’s a theme song So many tries but every time it just seemed wrong Saturday night just kicking it with my best man Looked at my left hand, I got a ring on (oh sh**) How did we get here? Started with a kiss then another kiss then another kiss Then a covered dish with white rice, greens, and smothered fish I’m lying, it was just chicken, n***as was thugging it Now we got a covenant it’s on, a bond for life In all of my years this was the easiest song to write It’s my confession in a rhyme, a testament and I Just wanna do my thing as I talk about a feeling that cannot be explained Or a love that cannot be contained in a measurement or time Some say it was a blessing in disguise Scratch that girl, you a lesson from the skies And I thank God for my winning cuz word to Lyfe Jennings Finally letting go of the mistakes of my twenties I admit that I am not an easy sell But I’m the Petey to your Chiwetel Your Big Boi to tell them b**hes pay your beeper bill My n***a be for real swore I wouldn’t do it again My man said that’ll change First time is all about working through your baggage The second time around it’s all about the baggage claim Thank your maker, stack your paper We’re the real one, major key, clairvoyant Leave them other hoes on read like clarinets Gorgeous, no wrongs in this love song I wrote for us Wedding play all day with no chorus, that’s right
