Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You're my lady
You're my lady
You're my lady
You're my lady
[Verse 2]
Don't think I don't see them looking at ya
All of 'em wishing they could have ya
And as a matter of fact, uh
A bunch of them, itching for you to scratch them
[Verse 3]
I'm tired of hiding what we feel
I'm tryna come with the real
And I'm gonna make it known
'Cause I want them to know
[Verse 4]
You're my lady (You're my lady)
You're my lady
You're my lady
You're my lady
[Verse 5]
You're my little baby (Baby)
My darlin' baby (Baby)
I swear you're the talk of the town
And everybody wants to know what goin' down
[Verse 6]
Babe, I know they've seen us before
Maybe at the liquor store
Or maybe at the health food stand
They don't know that I'm your man
[Verse 7]
You're my lady
You're mine, you're mine
You're my lady
Baby, you're my lady
[Verse 8]
You're my lady
Oh, my divine, my divine
You're my lady
I can tell they're lookin' at us
[Verse 9]
You're my lady
I pick you up every day, from your job
You're my lady
Heaven, God, yeah, they're talkin' 'bout us
[Verse 10]
You're my lady
Won't you love me or my girl
You're my heart and soul
And everybody wants to treat me so cold
[Verse 11]
You're my lady
Well, I know I love you and you love me
There's no other lover, you and me
You're my lady
[Verse 12]
Yo, though I only page you occasional
I'm raising you other than those invading you
Pushing up, persuading you
[Verse 13]
With conversations that consist of solicitation
False information, see I deal with sophistication
Shrimp and lobster style
You see me dressed up proper in Crocodiles
Crock awhile, I leave alone, unofficial is just not your style
My inner vision is this plush life living
Me escaping this inner city
Prison raping our women is causing havoc
Breaking bonds that birth marriage
[Verse 14]
This Earth was once lavish
Now it's cursed, left for a savage mind
I tech mine, respect mine, let's connect projects
Lex, wet sex, and wine all the time
The firm staff on the climb, Nas, the trio, D'Angelo, AZ, and Primo
You know how we go, firm affiliation, 9-6
[Verse 15]
I can tell they're lookin' at us
You're my lady
You're my lady
You're my lady
You're my lady
[Verse 16]
I can tell they're lookin' at us
You're my lady
You're my lady
You're my lady
You're my lady
[Verse 17]
I can tell they're lookin' at us
You're my lady
