Talib Kweli We Know (Featuring Faith Evans) lyrics

Hey, y'all, I feel good right? Yeah, okay
Now what that make me talk about? Love
Yeah, that's what the world need
Yo, that's what your girl need
All right, you can put it down like this
Tell you about myself

My name is Kweli an' I love to spit it, homie
I rap about love an' life, ladies get to know me
If you feelin' lonely, I could be your one an' only
I put it out in the world, so people show me love

Yeah, I always get it back
This ain't no pimp game here, that's a different track
We talkin' this an' that, we need to get with this
I keep it realer than most, this is our business

What we gotta do to make them see
We got a good thing goin' on?
Wanna tell the world if they don't know
That what we have is real

Wanna shout it from the mountains, baby
That I love you but if they don't hear me
I know, you know, we know

Yo, hey, baby, look like you need a break tonight
Let me make it right, baby, won't you stay the night?
I got a lot of love as you know you're my favorite, right?
Hey, my lady, what we gon' make tonight

That's the dream but I never sleep
Across the crowded room, our eyes forever meet
But without doubt an' gloom 'coz we can never be
That's why I got to go, you're my impossible love

You're the horizon I can see but never ride off into
I write my lyrics to you, you the perfect instrumental
I sound better than the cat who rappin' to you now
That's between me an' you, what happened to us now?

Got you hopin' for the glorious
Waitin' for that victorious feelin' wanted by all of us
Kneelin' an' prayin' that the Lord in us
Will help us love ourselves
So much that the confidence attract to someone else

What we gotta do to make them see

We got a good thing goin' on?
Wanna tell the world if they don't know
That what we have is real

Wanna shout it from the mountains, baby
That I love you but if they don't hear me
I know, you know, we know

Yo, rockin' Los Angeles, House of Blues in Sunset
Performin' like an orgasm, my girl ain't even cum yet
Seen her by the side of the stage givin' me energy
Potentially wife material connectin' mentally

I felt like Heaven sent for me, you're meant for me
The doubters an' the haters had to acknowledge eventually
You was a non-believer too, if memory serves
An' a heart that gives shit, tryin' to play your boy for her

The harder that I run to you, the farther you become
It's like my heart was part of some movie that hadn't yet begun
This woman moves me an' I'm a mountain of a man
You pull me in like the waves to the grain of sand

Yeah, I love the way you bring it to me
I wrote a song for you, I love to hear you to sing it for me
An' let the melody carry me through the jealousy
An' we can Cruise like Tom an' Penelope

What we gotta do to make them see
We got a good thing goin' on?
Wanna tell the world if they don't know
That what we have is real

Wanna shout it from the mountains, baby
That I love you but if they don't hear me
I know, you know, we know

What we gotta do to make them see
We got a good thing goin' on?
Wanna tell the world if they don't know
That what we have is real

Wanna shout it from the mountains, baby
That I love you but if they don't hear me
I know, you know, we know
