KRS-One - Take Your Tyme lyrics

Y'all don't know? Y'all don't know
Your body is a temple?
A temple to the living God?
Don't get gassed y'all
All my sisters out there, here's the truth
You, a you've got to TAKE yOUR tIME
Look, look!

You don't want no unsteady relationships
You want it tight
You don't want no man beggin
And always gonna get, am I right?
You don't want no man sleepin
Cheatin freakin behind his wife
There's no such thing as make love
It's really make life
I don't care what nobody say
You sleep with a man, that's your husband
So make sure, before you lay down
You love him and learn him
Yes it's still sacred to be a virgin
Relax, it's curiosity that always
Burns 'em in fact
Sex is like candy, be disciplined
No splurgin
You don't want your stomach hurtin
Girl, you gotta TAKE yOUR tIME listen!
Cash is an issue with that
He can never diss you
Even if he makes you cry
You bought your own tissue
Witcha own case, witcha own hand
Wipe ya own face
And throw him out, no doubt
Out of your own place
If your heart is broken you can mend it
If you're independent, your womanhood
That's when you defend it
Just uhh, just TAKE yOUR tIME woo! Look!

Take your time

Don't come witcha hand always out
If he buys you somethin thank him
But that's not what a man is about
Real men are real friends
Showin their real commitment
He tells you he really loves you
A boy can't really admit it
If a man really wants you
That man really flaunts you
In public or private a real
Man really supports you
'Member what Guru taught you?
Of course you "Royalty"
You dress how you like when a QUEEN
Is what you ought to be
And ought to act like
And also ought to manifest
How you dress makes you constantly blessed
Or constantly stressed tAKE yOUR tIME Yo!

Take your time

Yo, yo
So while you burnin off those calories
Think about reality
Get a skill for the salary
A man for the family
Not a boy, that's a catastrophe
Don't get mad at me
Instead of always clubbin visit
Museums and art galleries
Pick the single man
Admirin the ancient sculpture
He's cultured, chances are he won't insult ya
Give him your number only after
You know what he does
Ask him what it is, not what it was
You want the good life (GOOD LIFE)
You want the good life (GOOD LIFE)
You want the, you want the, you want the
C'mon, you gotta TAKE yOUR tIME
