ft. Nelly Furtado

[Chali 2na]
Yothis is a lesson in friendship
The depths of a kinship
What women and men begin withand then slip
My pen drips
As I scribble my thoughts on thin strips
Of emotion
A fractionseductionattraction
Eruption of passion
Corrupts if a lasted friendship s involved
But love to cross the line
But that s why we built these walls

[Hook: Nelly Furtado]
We been friends for a long timea very close friend of mine
Love you like you was minebut respect a thin line
I love you like you was minethink about you all the time
Very close friend of minebut respect a thin line

[Akil]
Opposite s attract
When the female and male come in contact
Sticky situation in fact
Tryin not to let the feelings catch
But there s a thin line between both of y all
So you respect that
And entertain the ideabut get brought back
To realityand could you really live with that?
Decisionbased on intuition
You love and keep your distance
Hug and kiss in friendship

[Marc 7]
An ongoing kinshipwe was people to begin with
Disrespect was not intended
but your feelings sparked the sentence
Sometimes you re too intense in your quest to invent
The perfect manplease understandmy rhyme is your repent

[(Hook) - repeat 2X]

[Soup]
Mantoo bad that we became friends first
I m not on expert on how relationships should work
But(echos) from the minute it as known
It changed the whole tone on how we spoke on the phone
Yoit was cool but I felt it wasn t enough
And I was stuck when your moms would pick it up
Over youall my buddies would swoon
But I felt we were in tuneyou let me up in your room. (Damn)
But to me girlyou re still off limits
No matter all the times that I hit it. (Yowhatchu doin after this?)
Infactuation was authenticbut yo I just pretended
So I wouldn t lose the friendship
MaybeI should spill all my guts
Or write a letterthen tear it up
Or do a songjust to say what s up
I want ... just ... a touch

[(Hook) - repeat 2X]

[Nelly Furtado]
I can t do this anymore
See my heart just spills out when you walk in the door
Friendship turns into lust and this only tip
That I can t comprehend even if I knew it
Can t do justice to these things that I m feeling
You got someone elsedon t wanna be caught stealing
Hell if she knew she would never leave us alone
in the roo-ooo-ooom

[Chali 2na]
This was a lesson in friendship
I stress in this sentence
Should women and men be friends first?
And then slip?
My pen drips as I scribble my thoughts on thin strips
of devotion

[Akil]
Opposites attract
And best friends make a perfect match
If you only knew that
Once you crossain t no turning back
The minute you let him in it and he hit that
That s that

[Marc 7]
We was people to begin withbut you was too relentless
Jeporidizing kinshiprespect is intended
Resolve is my intent
While we got it in
I m tryin to salvage a friendship

[(Hook) - repeat 2X]
