Book Of Love

(album: Toya - 2001)

My guy fly guy
Only half the man I need
So I take him , shape him
Make him rethink
His identity
Into a being that you never would believe
This transformation, my formation
Mr. Right you see
He was the perfect creation
Every young girl's dream
The perfect dime no longer mine
But still the one I need

Every girl wants to be in love
With the one of her dreams So what
What should you do if he seems outta touch
Who wrote the book of love
Every chapter same thing
Same game
Think it's time to rearrange
Gotta write a new page
Hate the way the game is played
How the rules are made
Who wrote the book of love

Sick and tired of how the story's told
Fellas always bragging on how they got control
Me and my girls bout to change the whole game
Weekend's coming up let me see who's gonna play
First round draft pick
I'm picking Ben
Cause Ben's got platinum
He don't care what I spend
Next up yo, I believe that's Nick
Nick's got a Range and I like the way it sits
So ladies if ya'll feel the same way
Change the game find who you wanna play
Rewrite the book then tell ya the story well
While he's at home waiting to exhale

Every girl wants to be in love
With the one of her dreams So what
What should you do if he seems outta touch
Who wrote the book of love
Every chapter same thing
Same game
Think it's time to rearrange
Gotta write a new page
Hate the way the game is played
How the rules are made
Who wrote the book of love

Rule 1 says you betta worship your man
Rule 2 says you betta treat her like gem
Rule 3 says you betta watch who you let in
your heart or they'll tare apart
Rule 4 says that nothin's promised to you
Rule 5 gives exceptions to to every rule
Rule 6 breaks it down and tells you like it is
That rules were meant to be broken

[Rap..]

Every girl wants to be in love
With the one of her dreams So what
What should you do if he seems outta touch
Who wrote the book of love
Every chapter same thing
Same game
Think it's time to rearrange
Gotta write a new page
Hate the way the game is played
How the rules are made
Who wrote the book of love
