Beauty And A Thug lyrics

Jaheim & Mary J. Blige (Still Ghetto)


Mary J. Blige:
So burgundy, the window to his soul
It seems he tapes his eyes closed,
From huffin on, that`s what he`s puffin on.
His style is rough, he wears his hair in cornrolls,
His jeans hang loose and low
So his di..opps he cain`t be comfortable I mean, he`s gotta be comfortable.

Jaheim:
Now she`s the type that`s compared to a rose that grew from the concrete,
So sweet ya know,
From the streets yo.
Now she`s the opposite of he,
Have you ever seen a lion sleep on the bossom of a sheep?
It`s beautiful.
Yeah thug though.

Both: (chorus)
She`s so beautiful and he`s a thug,
They`re so different yet they`re in love.
He`s so thugged out and she`s so beautiful,
They`re so perfect cause they`re in love.

Mary J. Blige:
Picture this, his warm velvet voice on a cold winters night,
Sugar free, bitter truth.
Building life from a slang so divine.
Soul to soul, their flesh pressed,
From a firm of onyx tenderness.
He signed his name with a venom kiss,
Upon a heart, I never heard of such bliss.

Jaheim:
Now she`s the opposite of he,
Such as a butterfly and he`s a killer bee.
Yeah, she becomes a victim to his sting,
And he`s amazed by the colors of her wings.
And the life he`s led has left him with some scars,
But, she viewed them all as mid-beauty marks.
The moral of the story, plain as can be,
He loved her cause, He is me.

::Chorus:: X2

Da Da-da-da da da da-da-da da

She`s beautiful and he`s a thug,
Made for each other `cause they`re in love.
She`s a petal and he`s a thorn,
From a different type of story since they were born.

::Chorus:: x2
