Raise A Man

Marble in a foyer I've been loving on you all day Would've stayed if you told me to stay As you can see it I stayed anyway I'm just not like these other girls I swear I just have to love you I just wanna need you if that's okay And you're just not like these other men out here Oh no you just wanna hold me and that's okay Can I be a woman for you babe In a time when it's not allowed How am I supposed to pretend That I don't want you the way I do oh yeah So everytime you're around me I feel virgin all over again And everytime you're a-around me How can I Boy I just need your hand Is it okay that I'm not independent Is it okay that I Is it okay that I show weakness Is it okay that I Is it okay to can't wait to see you Is it okay that I Is it okay to love a man right now If you understand Then show me your hands ooh hoo Show me your hands Boy if you understand Somebody raised a man ooh hoo Raised a man I've never been treated the way I didn't want to be treated It's hard to explain I know it's hard to believe I want what's coming at me Perfection protection please love Bring me all night long Making love to our favourite songs Your love teaches me how To love so deep Baby it's so sweet I can't wait to pass you down To the face that resembles you and me Is it okay that I'm not independent Is it okay that I Is it okay that I show weakness Is it okay that I Is it okay to can't wait to see you Is it okay that I Is it okay to love a man right now If you understand Then show me your hands ooh hoo Show me your hands Boy if you understand Somebody raised a man ooh hoo Raised a man Everyday and every night I pray for one accord I adore you even more And every minute that passes me by We can't afford For us to be ignored See we need each other More than we even know oh ho Somebody made a man So show me how to raise a man ooh hoo Raise a man You can't be a man If we don't raise a man ooh hoo Raise a man If you want a man Then you gotta raise a man ooh hoo Raise a man If you understand Then show me your hands ooh hoo Show me your hands
