Lyrics If You Want It - Slightly Stoopid, Alborosie

If You Want It

If you want it
Lord, you can have it now
In any way you want to go
And if you need it
Reach right out and grab it love
Some actin' like they never know
Respect is given where respect is due
Your mother lived up with a lot and watched to carry you through
Respect for them becomes respect for you
Mark my words and everybody know it’s true
Harder you come will be then harder you fall
Said you wanna back, they’re singin' come on come on
Some others knowin' when them back against the wall
While we never see them fightin' for the truth
And if you want it
Then you can have it love
It’s any way you want to go
And if you need it
Reach right out and grab it, love
Some actin' like they never know
But if you want it
Then you can have it love
It’s any way you want to go
Some them coming said they pick up them chest
Sayin' that they’re the best that they’re better than the rest
My lovers know there will be no contest
While others going like they are the one man show
Some never listenin' and some never learn
They do battle in the fire and they bound to get burned
They think they know that love is something that’s earned
They’ve gone astray and then they never to return
Well if you want it
Lord you can have it now
It’s any way you want to know
And if you need it
Reach right out and grab it, love
Some actin' like they never know
Things that we say for some people sounds outrageous
Hard as them live it and take it as contagious
Some other laugh and think you’re just hilarious
Some other feel it and praise you like a savior
The harder they come so the harder they fall
The weaker their mind the eyes to wall
Respect must be given to one and to all
My message spread over love
Some they comin' only with humbleness
Never can be no stress how they living is righteous
The man with love is the one that ya bless
Everything else in them life it will follow
Some they comin' only strictly with love
Like the Lord up above see it’s unconditional it
Is the way we should all be thinkin' of
That’s the way and that would be one mission road
Well, if you want it
Lord, you can have it now
It’s any way you want to go
And if you need it
Reach right out and grab it now
Some actin' like they never know
Lord, if you want it
Then you can have it love
It’s any way you want to go
And if you need it
Reach right out and grab it now
Some actin' like they never know
Some actin' like they never know
Some actin' like they never know
