J Dilla - What's Love lyrics

I know a girl named rhythm and I choose to keep her close She's got a younger sister named tempo And I swear that I love em both I enjoy them the same the pleasure shared is equal They're major parts of my life I put them above some people They treat me just right I swear they're all I'll ever need A part of my mind body and soul for them I'd even bleed When I wake up in the morning they're never out of reach They accompany me throughout my days And even when I sleep The realest girls I've ever known they've never done me wrong They've been by my side when I've been weak And helped to make me strong They remind me to hold on and weather the storm They help me clear my head And make it right whenever I've done wrong They make my body move and heartbeat rise They take me to better place above the clouds in the sky They know how to bring out the best of me They have the recipe they'll be by my side even as I rest in peace 1,2,1,2 What's love? This love right here 1,2,1,2 What's love? Love is what I'm kicking in your ear (you feel it) Through the years we've grown together and the feelings still remain Our relationship is the same even though they've seen me change I can be myself whenever I'm in their company They're ever so inviting they help me to live comfortably They have an effect on my brain that I can't explain I've learned to enjoy the cool breeze when it rains Even the longest of days come to an end And at the end of my days I know I'll always have some friends Who are there when I need them they're always down to listen They provide the cure better than any prescription I could never over dose the more I have the better I feel A lot in life is fake, but my love for them is real So never question what I pursue in life I'm living easy with rhythm and tempo and everything's alright If you know them as well and they're important to you Treat em right because they fuel everything I do 1,2,1,2 What's love? This love right here 1,2,1,2 What's love? Love is what I'm kicking in your ear (you feel it) Music makes me feel like I'm a part of something real Soundscapes and imagery through the speakers give me chills Percussion and ba** lines redefine thoughts inside my mind And make me feel alive within these hard times The hard times that we all face that's reality The beats per minute help to lighten up the gravity And pressure off my back it helps me to relax Bringing it back to jazz samples with smooth sax Making a splash through the sound waves Feeling vibrations on my skin like the sun during the summer days Music and haze keeps me well behaved Take my emotions and put them on page where they forever stay Cause from time to time my thoughts like to run away Some days I don't how to act or find the words to say What should be easy for me to piece together Music f** a 16 this is a love letter 1,2,1,2 What's love? This love right here 1,2,1,2 What's love? Love is what I'm kicking in your ear (you feel it)
