Saniyah X - Know You Know Lyrics

This damage I don't wanna claim but it's hard to fake
Cuz when the truth is in your face sometimes it's tough to take
You would have thought I'm made of glass the way my heart would break
I felt the ache and prayed I'd never make the same mistake
See I was hurt and tried to seek the lessons learned
I Had a way with words but I just couldn't lift the curse
My love life was looking like a parody
It's scaring me
They want my body but don't got the ring to marry me
I was settling for less than my price tag
Thought if I played nice then life wouldn't bite back
I got the battle scars to prove that I was incorrect
To be a queen I had to learn to put the pawns in check
I broke a sweat just to camouflage the tears
Tried to hide the pain but couldn't square up with my fears
Didn't wanna fight because I swear I'd seen it clear
Thought I found the one but every time they disappear

Sometimes It takes a couple wrongs just to get it right, get it right
Sometimes you gotta face the dark just to feel the light, feel the light
Sometimes your heart and mind, they don't see eye to eye, eye to eye
But when you know, you know, you know
But when you know, you know, you know

Just when I thought I was destined to be alone
Here he go now askin for the number to my phone
Kinda cold, the way the story of our lives unfold
Thankful that he had the guts to be so bold
And message first
Said he'd rather FaceTime then to text a lot
Told me that life is like a movie and I fit the plot
Released the shot like Jordan at the three
Or the free throw, if love is a game he got the cheat codes
And I'm a sucker for the nicknames
He call me baby just to see how much my mood change
And wanna spoil me with more than just a blue face
My love is soul food and now he's asking me to save a plate
Why wait? This time is filled with such divinity
Don't gotta ask cuz all his actions say he's into me
No words needed, we could feel it in the energy
Light years ahead it's him and me until infinity

Sometimes It takes a couple wrongs just to get it right, get it right
Sometimes you gotta face the dark just to feel the light, feel the light
Sometimes your heart and mind, they don't see eye to eye, eye to eye
But when you know, you know, you know
But when you know, you know, you know

Verse 3 and now there's something coming over me
Couldn't find the words but his every move is poetry
Notably, he inspires me to be the greatest
Feel like I'm runnin marathons the way my heart is racin
We be blazing but his touch can get me higher
Kisses like a drug I only get from my supplier
Others come and go but he's the one that I desire
Iron sharpens iron and we're forging love in fire
He be like Saniyah, I seen you in my dreams
Never knew that God had plans to manifest my queen
I been through some things that left my spirit pretty damaged
You came into my life and I just had to take the challenge
Girl it's crazy how the universe works
I wanna make it last with you that's why I'm puttin you first
Not one to give my heart away, I been thru the pain
But I can't shake the feeling of you taking my name

Sometimes It takes a couple wrongs just to get it right, get it right
Sometimes you gotta face the dark just to feel the light, feel the light
Sometimes your heart and mind, they don't see eye to eye, eye to eye
But when you know, you know, you know
But when you know, you know, you know
