What Do I Have To Do

(album: Love Music... Falling In, Falling Out - 2006)

Do I have to walk around and call you my boo?
Do I have to buy you things and talk to your crew?
Why don't you see what I really want is for real?
But I don't think you know how to keep it real
You can be my lover or you can be friend,
We can be official or we can just pretend,
Just let a nigga know before the night ends,
Just in time for our lives to begin.

Let me tell you bout this lady friend of mine
I don't know how to keep her off my mind
But let me tell you two things that I do know
She is the girl for me
I've already met my 10 girl
But my niggas say that it's a lost cause
Cause a girl like her just never falls for a nigga like me
But when I see her I just ask her what do I have to do?

Do I have to walk around and call you my boo?
Do I have to buy you things and talk to your crew?
Why don't you see what I really want is for real?
But I don't think you know how to keep it real
You can be my lover or you can be friend
We can be official or we can just pretend
Just let a nigga know before the night ends
Just in time for our lives to begin

I've been really thinking bout just what she does to me
How I care about her and how she can't see that
I'm the nigga that she needs
And if I tell you I gat you baby girl believe that
I know niggas might lie
But we both know that that's no surprise
And I can see it in the signs that I need you by my side

Do I have to walk around and call you my boo?
Do I have to buy you things and talk to your crew?
Why don't you see what I really want is for real?
But I don't think you know how to keep it real
You can be my lover or you can be friend
We can be official or we can just pretend
Just let a nigga know before the night ends
Just in time for our lives to begin

And I can tell when I look in your eyes,
You really wanna talk to me and baby girl it's no surprise
That you gat everything I need
I've really been wrestling with this one question
Let this be a lesson if your lady's your blessing
Let this be a lesson if your lady's your blessing

Do I have to walk around and call you my boo?
Do I have to buy you things and talk to your crew?
Why don't you see what I really want is for real?
But I don't think you know how to keep it real
You can be my lover or you can be friend
We can be official or we can just pretend
Just let a nigga know before the night ends
Just in time for our lives to begin
