Heis41, Anita Baker - Anita lyrics

Oh, oh oh, oh

Oh, oh ooh, wee
Oh, my you thought it was Anita?
No, it’s I just thought I’d stop by and say
"Damn girl, you looking good
Been about 45 years since you left the hood
How you been? I been misunderstood
And I tried to explain every time I could
But nobody listens like I’m talking to wood
I’m saying, ‘look at this, look at that’
Found myself on this soap box
And there I stood i called you hope
Some don’t see you cuz the dope
Well I used you as a rope off this slope
But, you dipped
And now we’re looking everywhere else
Don’t know that knowledge of the self
Is the truth wealth come back girl
I need you in my world
Like an Uncle Tom need a master
And a Jerry need a curl
Man it’s nasty out here
And it make me wanna hurl
Said I need you in my life ask why?
Because you oh, so thurl"

Uh, ah Anita (Anita)
You know that I need ya (Know that I need ya)
Anita uh
Ah, you know that I need ya
(Know that I need ya) anita, uh
Ah, I need her (I need her)
I need her (I need her) uh, Anita

Gettin’ it, gettin’ it and I’m rollin’
Social media the devil but, I be scrollin’
I see a lot all them drugs you got
And gun you holdin’ tough with that piece
Without it, y’all be foldin’
A thousand likes damn girl, you famous
But tell your views on life
Show me where ya brain is
Fat butt and you pretty
But so what, you brainless
That’s why I need Anita back
Like my spine is broke
And don’t mind this smoke
It’s just how I cope rich man in my mind
But in my pockets, nope
This for my oldheads
Know what I’m dealing with
This for my youngins that’s
Out here getting it
This for my women working overtime real hard
This for my niggas living lavish with no job
It’s all games, all fun
I’m just tryna spray the peace like a Mac
4 One Love ‘til I’m done, hun hun

Uh, ah Anita (Anita)
You know that I need ya (Know that I need ya)
Anita, oh ah, you know that I need ya
(Know that I need ya) anita, uh
Ah, I need her (I need her)
I need her (I need her) uh, Anita

Money go, but knowledge don’t go
It can only grow uh Anita
People go, but knowledge don’t go
It can only grow ah, Anita
Please don’t sue me

If I could, I’d give you the world
Wrap it all around you
Won’t be satisfied with just a
Piece of this heart my Angel
Oh, angel you’re my angel
Oh, angel
