Special

(album: Empire: Original Soundtrack, Season 3 - 2017)

Slow down, baby, slow down, baby
It's all love, I got enough to go 'round, baby
And I'll be there for you if it go down, baby
I'll be your life saver, you'll never drown, baby
Yo, this for my queens around the globe
How many girls going bad? You'll never know, yeah, yeah
This for my queens around the globe
How many girls going bad? You'll never know

Uh, hate to be the one to admit it, but I'm the one to live without flaw
Disrespected women, tryna get 'em outta they draws
Instead of bringing 'em down, we should be bringing them all
I hold my fist to the sky and pray we keeping building up
This the war that could touch the mothers, sisters and daughters
I got one of my own, so I gotta keep it in order
I gotta put on for Bella until I'm resting in memory
Be a better father to my daughter, know she depend on me
Don't get it confused, this ain't about black or white
Red or blue, as men, we should know how to move
Protect our women, don't lie, cheat and stress our women
I love my women, this ain't the end, it's just beginning

All them times when I'm cold and I need you
Never turn me down when I need you
Always around when I need you
That's why I love you
Woman, we all came from a woman
So be as strong as you could be
Be as strong as you could be, yeah

Slow down, baby, slow down, baby
It's all love, I got enough to go 'round, baby
And I'll be there for you if it go down, baby
I'll be your life saver, you'll never drown, baby
Yo, this for my queens around the globe
How many girls going bad? You'll never know, yeah, yeah
This for my queens around the globe
How many girls going bad? You'll never know

My foolish ways I was young and dumb
I had to smarten up, I knew that this day would come
Embrace the fact that my mama brought me in this world
And for that, I made a promise, I'll give her the world
Get well Kennedy
I take full responsibility for you getting hurt, it wasn't supposed to be
Yeah, it would hurt if it was someone that was close to me
Sometimes I let my feelings get the most of me
Sometimes it be those demons that's approaching me
That made me had those reckless ways
Went through my trials and tribulations, I got out the maze
Hope for power for our women, bow our heads and pray

All them times when I'm cold and I need you
Never turn me down when I need you
Always around when I need you
That's why I love you
Woman, we all came from a woman
So be as strong as you could be
Be as strong as you could be, yeah

Slow down, baby, slow down, baby
It's all love, I got enough to go 'round, baby
And I'll be there for you if it go down, baby
I'll be your life saver, you'll never drown, baby
Yo, this for my queens around the globe
How many girls going bad? You'll never know, yeah, yeah
This for my queens around the globe
How many girls going bad? You'll never know
