Mic Little f/ Ne-Yo
[Ne-Yo]
Compound is in the building
Ayo Walt you got one wit this one dawg
What's goin on everybody, it's your boy Ne-Yo
I want to take this time to introduce ya to somebody special
Now when I say special I mean unique
His name is Mic Little and he got something to say
Yo Mic talk to the people
[Verse 1]
Uw uw uw uw
Yea yea yea
Aw yea (aw yea)
Yea
Aw yea (aw yea)
Yea
Aw yea (aw yea)
Yea
Lately I been tryna tell ya somethin
Tryna find the nerve but nothin come to say it
I really really wanna know you (know you)
See you all the time you wit ya homegirls
And I'm knowin that they probably gonna hate
If I try to approach you too
[Chorus]
So I'm gonna put it in a letter (ohh)
Leave it in your locker (ohh)
Wait for you to hollaback
And let me know if your down with that
(2x)
[Verse 2]
Baby this is know how to tell ya like me
Circle yes or no or even maybe
This is something deeper (deeper)
All I want is for us to be together
But first I gotta meet cha
[Chorus]
So I'm gonna put it in a letter (ohh)
Leave it in your locker (ohh)
Wait for you to hollaback
And let me know if your down with that
(2x)
[Verse 3: Ne-Yo]
Ayo Walt, I don't normally do this
But it's a special occassion so here we go
Hold up a second playa
I've been peepin the scenery
You want the cutie smiling at you in the cafeteria
I see your movements
I peep your mini macking
But there's a couple different ways that you can make it happen
You ain't the average running up on her as she walk
And plus you R&B so you ain't even gotta talk
Writing it down has always helped me out when trying to get up
So you don't gotta sweat her
Think about it, find a pen and put it in a letter
[Chorus]
So I'm gonna put it in a letter (ohh)
Leave it in your locker (ohh)
Wait for you to hollaback
And let me know if your down with that
(2x)
Uw uw uw uw
Yea yea yea
