Dwele: "A Few Reason (Truth Part 2)"

 

[Verse 1]
I'm better as a man and it's all because of you baby.
And now I understand when they say 'Behind a strong man there's you'
Some can't comprehend the words I speak on track 10 baby
But there's a new meaning for the truth
If the truth is in the pudding, your Jello pops are Cosby
If the truth is bare naked, then the truth, it look good on you
Simplify baby, we make it do what it do
And that's a few reasons why I'm with you.

[Chorus]
I'm so glad you're mine, you're mine
On a scale 1 to 10, you're about a couple of dimes.
Head toe, you're so fine, so defined.
A few reasons why you're mine.

I'm so glad you're mine, so defined
On a scale 1 to 10, you're about a couple of dimes.
Head toe, you're so fine, you're mine.
A few reasons why you're mine.

[Verse 2]
This song is my ode to you, for the twice time baby.
I learned a few things since the last time I told you the truth,
Got me outside with no umbrella and it's raining.
But I don't mind your wetness, it's cool.
If we had computer love, I would let you hack my Myspace.
If your love was a dance, you could Youtube me and watch me yooouuuu
You, you, you, you bring out the youth in an old soul baby.
And that's a few reasons why I'm with you

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
It's true you got me trying to find things about you to not be so wrapped up in you,
But obviously it's hopeless, that's why I wrote this.
I can't help but to focus on your ass, your smile, your eyes
Just gotta keep it truthful with myself cause in the end
I'ma want you for more than a friend.
If you ain't heard me, I'ma say it again.

[Chorus]
