Lyrics The Beginning - Vanessa Hill, Sho Baraka

The Beginning

Alright, what did you--- what did you think of me when we first met?
I thought you were arrogant
…and flirtatious
Oh gosh, okay… no-- nothing good though?
Just all negative stuff?
I wouldn’t say negative, but I’ve learned…
Arrogant and flirtatious is not necessarily good qualities
But that’s just initially
Then…
And then as the summer went on, I learned more about your character and those
traits didn’t stand out as much anymore because the ones I was looking for
start to stand out
Alright, um… I’ll say that when I first saw you uh, I was definitely
attracted to your-- to your character and the way that you served.
I saw you serving young ladies.
I saw you leading and to me, I knew that I
could marry a woman who denied herself to, to love and serve other people
'cause I mean, you not gonna always be fine.
*laughs* So I’m gonna have to love
you, I’ma have to love you… *laughs*
Says who?!
I’ma have to love you for some other reasons and so… uh, the character was
something I was like «when that fine go away, she still gon' have fine
character.»
You can manage with *laughs*
