Sweet You - Phonte

What could be sweeter than you?

A-one, two, a-one, two

A-one, two, a-one, two

A-one, two, a-one, two

A-one, two, a-one, two (sweeter than you?)

A-one, two, a-one, two

A-one, two, a-one, two

A-one, two, a-one, two

What could be sweeter than you?

Mic check, is this thing on?

I ain’t even know if I would rap or just sing on

It took me awhile, but now I’m getting my swing on

Icarus in increments, sometimes I put wings on

Every hero ain’t a hero 'til there’s a theme song

So many tries but every time it just seemed wrong

Saturday night, just kicking it with my best man

Looked at my left hand, I got a ring on (sweeter than you)

Oh shit, how did we get here?

Started with a kiss then another kiss then another kiss

Then a covered dish with white rice, greens, and smothered fish

I’m lying, it was just chicken, niggas was thugging it

Now we got a covenant, it’s on, a bond for life

In all my years, this was the easiest song to write

It’s my confession in a rhyme, a testament and I

Just wanna do my thing as I talk

About a feeling that cannot be explained

Or a love that cannot be contained in a measurement or time

Some say it was a blessing in disguise

Scratch that, girl, you a lesson from the skies

And I thank God for my winnings, that’s word to Lyfe Jennings

Finally letting go of the mistakes of my twenties

I admit that I am not an easy sell, but I’m the Petey to your Chiwetel

Your big boy that tell them bitches pay your beeper bill

My nigga be for real, swore I wouldn’t do it again

My man said that’ll change

First time is all about working through your baggage

The second time around it’s all about the baggage claim

Thank your maker, stack your paper

With a real one, major key, clavinet

Leave them other hoes on read like clarinets

Gorgeous, no wrongs in this love song I wrote for us

Wedding play all day with no chorus, let’s ride

Girl it’s you it’s you and you’re on my mind

Girl it’s you it’s you and you’re on my mind

Girl it’s you it’s you and you’re on my mind

Girl it’s you it’s you and you’re on my mind
