Néné - What Makes You Think... Lyrics

Ohh uh uh uh uh
Oh hu huu
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Raised by the streets turned a boy to a man
Saw the police kill my daddy at 10
So I slept with the heat to protect all my kin
Mad at the world filled with hate, love
Fast forward to walking back home in the rain
With a friend that I knew for a year and some change
As we talking about love I might never contain
She turns and said

What make you think that I'm not in love
Boy
Waiting for you to wake up
I know the world look at you like a thug
But there is love
There's love
What make you think that I'm not in love
Boy
I showed you signs but you're dumb
Kiss on your wounds when no one gave a f*ck
Showing you love
Yeah, love
What makes you think that I'm not in love

13 Years later the future comes to past
With your HBCU sweater going to class
With my pants down my ass as I'm roaming these street
Wishing that the man you were with was me
If only
I wear my heart
Out on my sleeve
It'll cover my scares
But open you to me
As I ran to your dorm
To look for you and say

What makes you think that I'll give you up
Girl
I'll beat his ass just for fun
Thought run my mind as you walk to your dorm
With him in your arms
Damn, arms
I know you think that I'm not in love
Girl
But I been in love since in love
But I ain't no good so I lied and it's tough
Seeing you love
Hurts love
One day I'll tell you that I'm...
