Pete Rock feat. CL Smooth - It's A Love Thing (Remix) - Soul Enchantment (RiG's Favorite Mix!)

My favorite mix of the song "It's A Love Thing." by Pete Rock feat CL Smooth. Enjoy! Please rate & comment!

Lyrics:

Verse 1:

Inner city Harlem/ playin wit fire hydrants/ temps 98 but we were so excited/ we drifted our days away with the waters caress/ ice cream man came & wed sprint till it hurt chests/ none the less/ we were kids you & I/ felt you were pretty/ but I was kiddy/ scared to admit it/ so I made fun of you said you had cooties when you didnt/ I can admit now/ thinkin of you made me sit down/ your hairs lustrousness made me say wow/ now that word I didnt know when I was younger/ too busy playin Sonic & pushin Tonka/ but often Id gaze out my window watchin you jumprope/ down the street Id see my friends runnin to see whod make it to the flagpole/ first/ like a comment/ but Id laugh cuz ya mom was old school with the bonnet/ teachin you how to cook/ teachin you phonics/ me I had a bad home life which is how I got my imagination/ creatin better scenarios than the ones I was facing/ & now

Chorus:
Now I know, I know its a love thing (Thats the story)
Now I know, I know its a love thing (Thats the story)
You wouldnt understand, you wouldnt understand its a love thing (Thats the story)
You wouldnt understand, you wouldnt understand its a love thing (Thats the story)

Verse 2:

Then came high school/ cheerleader status/ you were pretty guys fawnin on you was automatic/ but me/ Id silently gaze at your movements/ pickin my spot to rekindle a friendship that never stopped blooming/Id approach you like hey pretty lady/ Ive been missin you lately/ thinkin of how we used to talk and blow time daily/ I could never forget about that kiss you gave me/ I wanted to know if you had anytime for Mr. Rockwell baby?/ she laughed and looked at my lips/ which reminded her of my kiss/ and reminded her of how she ought not miss/ the good time that is me/ we rolled to Dairy Queen/ split a cup/ and sat atop the bench just catchin up/she told me about her dream to be a supermodel/ I told her of my lyrical pursuit and she said thats a dream that I should follow/ so we got down walked to the car and kissed again more passionately/ no commitment it was just our thing/

Chorus:
Now I know, I know its a love thing (Thats the story)
Now I know, I know its a love thing (Thats the story)
You wouldnt understand, you wouldnt understand its a love thing (Thats the story)
You wouldnt understand, you wouldnt understand its a love thing (Thats the story)

Verse 3:

Im still pursuing my music/ aint blown up yet but I will so I keep on grooving/ Me and the love thing lady went to different colleges and just lost touch/ Id facebook her but she was busy so she aint respond much/ That was then this is now/ college is over we both in the real world/ shes on billboards posin for Maybelline/ I look at it in a state of disbelief/ my baby did it/ but she never was my baby so I fix it/ my friend that I care about deeply/ is the one Im constantly seeing/ Im attending one of her book signings havent seen her in years/ I know when she sees me shell be in tears/ long line but Im almost there/ 4 people ahead of me/ my heart beating quick/ feeling like a kid again/now me and her stare I say hey pretty lady/ she gives a bland hey/ I just let her sign my book and I walk away/ damn

Chorus:
Now I know, I know it was a love thing (Thats the story)
Now I know, I know it was a love thing (Thats the story)
You wouldnt understand, you wouldnt understand it was a love thing (Thats the story)
You wouldnt understand, you wouldnt understand it was a love thing (Thats the story)
Damn industry, damn industry

@northern187 thanks a lot. Appreciate the feedback. Give my new records a listen like, "The Last Resort", "Fiend Soliloquy" and many more. I'm much better than when I recorded this record. Thank you again.

[RaGInBaLLeR23]

one of the most fundamental things in hip hop is to tell a story, and its done right here, smooth

[RiGolettoMicFiend]

Not as long as I'm not profiting off of it, it is a remix released w/ no monetary gain, so no.
