(I Love) You Lyrics by MC Zappa

It’s All A Game

2019

[Verse 1: MC Zappa]
There's somethin' that's been on my mind for a long time
So now, I'm addressin' it wit' a strong rhyme
Black woman, my fate is eternally tied to you
So to show my appreciation is the least I could do
Had to take a few minutes out of this tape
Sit down and contemplate, how do I say?
That I love you to the ends of the Earth
And I recognize what black women are worth
Often treated as a disposable tool
But yo, that ain't right; that's lower than cruel
You've been neglected, rejected, and disrespected
And I hate to admit, left unprotected
But you can call on me like a rotary phone
Girl, you ain't gotta go it alone
That's one verse down and two to go
But whatever the case, I want you to know (girl, I hope you know I'm)
[Chorus]
Thinkin' 'bout you, thinkin' 'bout you
Thinkin' 'bout you, thinkin' 'bout you (x4)
[Verse 3: MC Zappa]
So much blatant hateration and animosity
And yo, I gotta say, it really bothers me
Black woman, you are a queen, not a ho
All the negative propaganda has gotta go
I don't know if you're aware, but you bear the crown
That's the reason that they all try to tear you down
You're playin' with the odds against ya
But I want you to know that I'm standin' witcha
I love you romantically and I love you platonically
I love you visually and I love you sonically
Black woman, you're worth more than gold
I'm sayin' it now 'cuz it needs to be told
Takin' you for granted is wrong and incorrect
'Cuz you possess the strongest intellect
As sure as one plus one always equals two
Here's mad love and respect, from me to you (girl, I hope you know I'm)
[Chorus]
Thinkin' 'bout you, thinkin' 'bout you
Thinkin' 'bout you, thinkin' 'bout you (x4)
[Verse 3: MC Zappa]
They often underestimate what you're capable of
But I know you shaped the world wit' unbreakable love
Lookin' at you is lookin' at a goddess, see
Celebrate yourself; no need for modesty
'Cuz you're divine from your skin to your hair
And no one else could even begin to compare
I know every day, you bear the brunt
Of the criticism of those who get scared and front
Gotta put everything in its proper perspective
When I look at your soul, I gotta respect its
I'm sorry if I'm layin' it on too thick
But if I don't honor you, what's the point of my music?
I cannot forget who gave me confidence
All the energy, love, and the time you spent
Black woman, you are a gift from above
When push comes to shove, it's you that I love (girl, I hope you know I'm)
[Chorus]
Thinkin' 'bout you, thinkin' 'bout you
Thinkin' 'bout you, thinkin' 'bout you (x4)
