Black Ice - Take Ya Time Lyrics

(feat. Musiq Soulchild)

Hey young girl the world is yours
Hey young girl I know these whores...

[Verse 1: Black Ice]
... make it hard for you to see the right direction
Looking for affection in the wrong place
Baby maybe you should take your time
And think about it before you make the wrong choice
Listen to your inner voice when it's calling
I know the feeling of falling in love for the first time
It was a pretty girl like you who made me write my first rhyme
First crime that the heart committed when I was about your age
Hormones surging now
Looking for a virgin now
Surgeon of the word I was even as a teen
And my pac, he get his hussle on, he kept a nigga clean
Now peep the scene, it was high school
Eyes cool
Gucci's on
Standing in the hallway radars full of hoochies on
Good girl, honor roll, tryna reach her dreams
Bout to cut class
Get me ass
Caught up in my schemes
Quick to choose

[Bridge: Musiq Soulchild]
I know it seems that everyone you know is out and getting their's
But not you cause you don't believe in giving it up so fast
Don't feel bad about holding on to what's precious

[Chorus: Musiq Soulchild]
Baby girl don't give your self up to no one who ain't special to ya.
If you don't know what to do (baby always know that)
You don't have to do a thing if you don't want to
Just take your time til you make up your mind girl

[Verse 2: Black Ice]
Boys don't know how to crack, they try to holla out the window of they ride.
Young men know how to act, they humbly pull you to the side.
A young man is genuine he don't suck up to your mom.
But a boy will kiss your ass and try to f*ck before prom.
A boy will play hustla because he think hotter through it.
Young men keep it on the low and hate they gotta do it.
A young man is in his dorm room with a big poster of Pac.
A boy know his songs word for word but can't get off the block.
Boys wanna hit it.
Young men wanna hit it.
Young men wait patiently.
Boys rush to get it.
After school, boy rushes home to jump on playstation.
A young man will stay late and try to further education.
A boy won't say nothing if his homies try and sound you.
A young man will defend your honor if these niggas ever clown you.
A young man sees studying and practice with his teams.
But a boy don't see nothing but crack and triple beams.

[Bridge: Musiq Soulchild]
I know it seems that everyone you know is out and getting their's
But not you cause you don't believe in giving it up so fast
Don't feel bad about holding on to what's precious

[Chorus: x2]
Baby girl don't give your self up to no one who ain't special to ya.
If you don't know what to do always know that
You don't have to do a thing if you don't want to
Just take your time til you make up your mind girl

[Verse 3: Musiq Soulchild]
It's all up to you
What you wanna do
Don't you let nobody
(if you ain't ready, don't let em get it, tell em forget it)
Anytime you want the taste
I guess that's how you make mistakes
If they want better love
Baby they can wait

[Chorus:]
Baby girl don't give your self up to no one who ain't special to ya.
If you don't know what to do always know that
You don't have to do a thing if you don't want to
Just take your time til you make up your mind girl

[Black Ice:]
He gonna give you all the time you want
He gonna give you all the time that you need
Cause he himself is on his own path
You ain't got to worry about a real lil young real cat
Turn a violation
Put you under no peer pressure
Hold on girl
