Wale, Monica - Take a Chance lyrics

A couple of things
This is as honest as I could be
My sole objective is
To love, listen, and respect her
From this very second i’m just sayin'
That she’s special enough for me
To wanna protect you against you
Don’t love me, shawty

I’m sure you did a lot of things
Before I got in the picture didn’t you?
Wait, don’t tell me
I know you kissed a lot of girls
Told a lot of lies
Broke a few hearts, but listen
I ain’t feel none of that last
Night when you held me
I just wanna believe that you
Met a girl who felt something different
(Different from the other ones)
I believe that girl met you
And saw someone who had
Some beautiful intentions

So let’s just take a chance take a hand
Take a leap
And do what most won’t understand
(Let’s just take a chance)
Who knows where we’ll end
I’ll be down if you tell me you can’t
I’ll learn to change my plans
I’m willing to take that chance
(Just take a chance)

Uh, settle down, queen
No one better's you forever
This for now, queen when the time’s right
Get your mind right
We will tell our whole town this is our thing
But for now, queen this is how it be
I could fully understand if you gotta leave
When the time’s right get my mind right
I’ma get these bummy bitches from around me
Got a past I’m ashamed of
Past full of danger
I can give you everything
But a last name is sacred
All I ask is a chance that you take
And be safe with yourself
And never lack any patience
I’m a young wild bull who been through a lot
Use them fucking groupie bitches
To conceal my heart i could stop
I take them down but I take you out
It’s funny how you got the ring
And they always give up the box

So let’s just take a chance take a hand
Take a leap
And do what most won’t understand
(Let’s just take a chance)
Who knows where we’ll end
I'll be down if you tell me you can’t
I’m willing to change my plans

I’mma pay attention To the obvious, oh
So there’s no need for you
To mention your past i’m ready

So let’s just take a chance take a hand
Take a leap
And do what most won’t understand
(Let’s just take a chance)
Who knows where we’ll end
I’ll be down if you tell me you can't
I’m willing to change my plans
I’m willing to take that chance
So let's take a chance
