[Hook]
Bound to falling in love
Bound to falling in love (Uh-huh, honey)
[Verse 1 - Shad]
Celebration, getting pounds from the posse
Cliff found Claire and she down for the cause, b
No ice, she still bound to a cross, b
Bound, no humping around, Bobby
Dawg, these heads hate it, they want the sound of Mobb Deep
But these are happy days, sound of Fonzie
Hol' up, I'm not crowning a prom queen
Or giving my name throwing rice out, Condie
As we walk out, post-tying that knot
Dreaded wedded life is a thought, thought she blocked me
Scared of an Erykah rappers stuck on the thought, she might
Bad do me wrong, but baby you know you got me
That's just some stupid stuff that dudes think
Half the time y'all probably wonder if dudes think
Put us all in a room, see how dudes think
It's worse than groupthink, even worse than how that room stink
She'll have you in that IKEA looking at new sinks
Like "Honey, is this top like pink, or is it like too pink?"
Would you believe at this age that I'm still learning?
Would you believe after so long that I'm still hurting?
On the stage we make magic but the real Earvin
Just a real person, BOW, still searching
[Bridge 1: Charlie Wilson]
I know you're tired of loving, of loving
With nobody to love, nobody, no (Uh-huh, honey)
[Verse 2 - Shad]
Brothers like drama, word to Doug Ford, some brothers like
Drama, got their whole entourage in an uproar
I'm just trying to keep things above board, so shorty can
Trust more, peace, I'm not a con or a drug lord
And I'm not a Chuck Norris, your man's not a fan of the bloodsport
But Van Damme we fighting, cuz love's war
It cuts deep, of course, there's no gloves worn
So if a fist's got a ring on it, it hurts much more
So they say, get trained to expect pain
At times it's less playing catch, more X-Games
So expect some bruised pride and some sweat stains
Learning how to accept blame and how to accept change
Instead of stressing 'till you burst out your neck veins
Look down the road, from the shoulder, to the left lane
See the danger trying to pa**, when the test came
Thought it would be like some exam; was an essay
Less righting wrongs, always writing that next page
Staying up all night, fighting 'till next day
Watch the sunrise lighten up, best way
Love brightens what's within us like an X-Ray
Vision, yo I'm thinking this is what it all comes down to
Staying down to earth with some good turf to ground you
Cuz you become like the people that surround you
We free the ones we love, and we love the ones we're bound to
[Bridge 2: Charlie Wilson]
I know you're tired of loving, of loving
With nobody to love, nobody, nobody
Just grab somebody, no leaving this party
With nobody to love, nobody, nobody (Uh-huh, honey)
