It Was Beautiful

Yeah

I just need a minute of your time (just a minute of your time)

Can I please have a minute of your time?

Yeah

Get a minute of your time

Ever since we was 12 I've been wanting you to hold

You never was around when I wanted you to roll

Now I see you once, if I'm lucky couple months

I be with this music and you always coupled up

Duffled up or backpacked, the show must continue

I got a couple beats right now I want to send you

I got a empty heart right now I want to lend you

But love don't buy shit so right now I love this pencil

When the mic I record with, nights I get bored with

So I be tryna write some shit that I can hit the stores with

Spit it a cappella and have a nigga on some floor shit

So you can see me at a Laker game on some floor shit

I wanna explore her, that's some fore' shit

These hos don't pay attention cause they probably can't afford it

Haha

But I told you she was beautiful

I told you she was beautiful

And now it's like 2 and I'm tryna make good

Them promises I made that I was gon get us out the hood

Never come back, probably get us out for good

If this was '94, I'd probably get us out through Suge

Like yeah nigga I'm on, posing like I made it

I had a couple cuts but them niggas wouldn't fade it

So I kept writing, booked time and I laid it

Now I couldn't tell you all the girls that I done laid with

Man I couldn't tell you all the places that I played in

Shit I couldn't tell you all the places that I stayed in

Clothes that you rap about, shit that I stayed in

You niggas get love but that's the shit that I was made in

Well, they told me I was beautiful

I told you I was beautiful

I told you I was beautiful

I told you I was beautiful

Like Stevie on the keys, Isley on the string

Every time I see it, it reminds me of them things

Every time I see you it reminds me of my dreams

Everything is fine, hope I find you when I leave

Just because I style they think I ain't broken

And just because I smile, they be thinking I be jokin

I pass on the blunt and niggas think that I be smokin

Bust my Raids hat and people think that I'm from Oakland

But I'm just athletic, just as ready

And when I say you fine I'm talking just aesthetics

Cause it's kinda a façade, you steady goin out

Chest be poking out, when you know you got a job

And you barely got benefits, talking what you finna get

It's all cool now but I want you to remember this

Matter fact don't remember shit

Especially old girl that you caught me out at dinner with

Send a ? pray more, thank you for this day Lord

I only answer to you so I shouldn't have to say more.

Uh

And I told you life was beautiful

I told you it was beautiful

I told you it was beautiful

I told you it was beautiful

I told you it was beautiful

I told you it was beautiful

As women on the stretch pole

Why we so disrespectful?

Why Jesus resurrect for?

Some things you never get told

How beautiful this sound be

I'm just happy that it found me

Karma comes around, niggas

I'm just glad I'm already down with her

This from my side of town with it

That rest in peace James Brown with it

But I don't wanna get to loud with it

I just hope I make you proud with it

And I told you we was beautiful (J. Skillz)

I told you we was beautiful (Yeah)

I told you we was beautiful

I told you we was beautiful (Look at us now)

I told you we was beautiful

I told you we was beautiful (Haha, second time around)

I told you we was beautiful (Do work)

I told you we was beautiful
