[Chorus]

I know I know It's rough and tough We've been through--been through-- enough to much already but will you stand by me?
Cuz baby you know You know No one goin' show you the right way to go I'm goin' be the right there If you goin' stand for me I'll stand for you

[Verse One]

So unexpected The way our paths crossed through You see my life was ok but great Till I met you Ya I saw you just sittin' there and my heart skipped a beat Didn't know what I should say and I couldn't move my feet So I thought to myself man I should step up Open my mouth Stop and say wassup When I was talkin' to ya I was in a daze just amazed I felt blazed cuz your eyes had me trapped like in a maze Didn't think it really mattered till I finally seen you smile Then once I heard you laugh I knew I had to stay a while And it's crazy to think bout how you got me so sprung But I aint' sayin' I'm in love just that I'm all wrapped Didn't think I had a chance or that you'd fall for the bait But it turned out you had me caught Shot Hung up and made So if this is such a crime then tell me bout the price to pay hey

[Chorus]

I know I know It's rough and tough We've been through -- been through -- enough to much already but will you stand by me?
Cuz baby you know You know No one goin' show you the right way to go I'm goin' be the right there If you goin' stand for me I'll stand for you

[Verse Two]

After that first kiss My first summertime bliss I've been afraid to let go Afraid of what I might miss So we been goin' 'gainst the rules and we been sneakin' around Cuz all your friends be sayin' we be wrong if we get down And ya we started off bad People droppin' games and givin' names---you---being busted by fools that was so lame It ain't the same though We gotten better fosho We getting closer you know I ain't never letting you go We've come to far in this time Through all our fights and lies Towards all your friends and mine I've bruised my love with pride and taken chances for romances all that shit turned out the same --- in flames --- But that ain't the way I'll say I see us goin' if you stay So take a chance now Baby be mine it's time for me to show you How you can shine how you can shine Hey

[Chorus]

I know I know It's rough and tough We've been through -- been through -- enough to much already but will you stand by me?
Cuz baby you know You know No one goin' show you the right way to go I'm goin' be the right there If you goin' stand for me I'll stand for you

[Verse Three]

It like when ever I be seein' you We never chance to speak But just trust the way things are Ain't how I planned to be So take a time here Please chill just let me say one thing Let me speak my peace Awwwwww here it go 1 2 3 Ok I know we got some doubters shit-talkers and frowners But we can handle that we could've blocked out our surroundens' I ain't up to let it go Guess you don't care to let it flow So either way I'm here to stay Whether you get it or you don't 'N' trust I get your heart is takin' but when will you finally see I'm in love with who you are He only loves who you can be And I don't know what else to say 'Cept that one day you will get He was a fool a waste of time He'll be the one that you regret And all I'll do is stare at you the way I did when you left Shakin' my head hopin' your heart ain't broken straight in half So I'll just sit back and wait Cuz ain't
Nothing I can do Ya I'll just chill and be patient 'till you get that you my boo

[Chorus]

I know I know It's rough and tough We've been through--been through-- enough to much already but will you stand by me?
Cuz baby you know You know No one goin' show you the right way to go I'm goin' be the right there If you goin' stand for me I'll stand for you

[Verse Four]

I don't think you get the feelin' The one down in my gut The one that says to keep holdin' on Don't let her go wassup? See I saw heart break from the start but didn't think it'd come this far This whole time felt like my heart done stop Can't say I know who you are See he be yellin' and fightin' ain't trust a word that you say But still you cry cover a lie then turn round say it's ok I tried my best to make it work; I gave you all that I got But I guess that wasn't 'nough cuz I turn round see now you're gone And ya I've tried to let go Move on—forget your name All my life that's how I rolled But for you it ain't the same I see you every where I go When I here your name I freeze up Can't stand to here bout all your shit makes me just wanna knock him out! And you know I know it's hard And I know you know what's best But you know I treat you better Way better then all the rest See cuz you been lookin' at the wrong thing So here I'll give a toast It's not about who you known longer no it's bout who loves you most

[Chorus]

I know I know It's rough and tough We've been through -- been through -- enough to much already but will you stand by me?
Cuz baby you know You know No one goin' show you the right way to go I'm goin' be the right there If you goin' stand for me I'll stand for you
