Knock You Down

[Keri Hilson]

Not again

Oh, this ain't supposed to happen to me

[Kanye West]

Keep rockin' and keep knockin'

Whether you Louis Vuitton it up or reebockin'

You see the hate that they servin' on a platter

So what we gon' have, dessert or disaster?

[Keri Hilson]

I never thought I'd be in love like this

When I look at you, my mind goes on a trip

Then you came in and knocked me on my face

Feels like I'm in a race

But I already won first place

I never thought I'd fall for you as hard as I did

You got me thinking 'bout our life, our house and kids, yeah

Every morning, I look at you and smile

'Cause, boy, you came around

And you knocked me down, knocked me down

Sometimes love comes around

And it knocks you down

Just get back up when it knocks you down

Knocks you down

Sometimes love comes around

And it knocks you down

Just get back up when it knocks you down

Knocks you down

[Ne-Yo]

I never thought I'd hear myself say

Ya'll go ahead, I think I'm gonna kick it with my girl today

I used to be commander-and-chief of my pimp ship flying high

'Till I met this pretty little missile who shot me out the sky

Captain, now I'm crashing, don't know how it happened

But I know it feels so damn good

Said, if I could go back and make it happen faster

Don't you know I would, baby, if I could?

Miss Independent - to the fullest

The load never too much, she helping me pull it

She shot the bullet that ended that life

I swear to you the pimp in me just died tonight

Girl, sometimes love

[Keri Hilson & Ne-Yo]

Sometimes love comes around

And it knocks you down

Just get back up when it knocks you down

Knocks you down

Sometimes love comes around

And it knocks you down

Just get back up when it knocks you down

Knocks you down

[Kanye West & Keri Hilson]

Tell me now, can you make it past your Caspers?

So we can finally fly off into NASA

You was always the cheerleader of my dreams

That seemed to only date the head of football teams

And I was the class clown and always kept you laughing

We were never meant to be, baby, we just happened

So please, don't mess up the trick

Hey young world, I'm the new Slick Rick

They say I move too quick, but we can't let this moment pass us (pass us by)

Let the hourglass pass right into ashes

Let the wind blow the ash right before my glasses

So I wrote this love letter right before my classes

I could've gone and asked someone that's only average for advice

OMG, you listen to that, bitch? Woe is me!

Baby, this is tragic 'cause we had it, we was magic

I was flying, now I'm crashing

This is bad, real bad, Michael Jackson

Now I'm mad, real mad, Joe Jackson

You should leave your boyfriend now, I'mma ask him

[Keri Hilson & Ne-Yo]

Sometimes love comes around

And it knocks you down

Just get back up when it knocks you down

(Keep it good when it knocks you down)

Knocks you down

Sometimes love comes around

(When love comes around)

And it knocks you down

Just get back up when it knocks you down

Knocks you down

Knocks you down!
