paroles de chanson Raise a Man - Alicia Keys

Marble in a foyer
I've been loving on you all day
Would've stayed if you told me to stay
As you can see it I stayed anyway
I'm just not like these other girls, I swear
I just have to love you
I just wanna need you if that's okay
And you're just not like these other men out here
Oh no, you just wanna hold me and that's okay
Can I be a woman for you babe
In a time when it's not allowed
How am I supposed to pretend
That I don't want you the way I do, oh yeah
So everytime you're around me
I feel virgin all over again
And everytime you're a-around me
How can I [?]
Boy I just need your hand
Is it okay that I'm not independent
Is it okay that I...
Is it okay that I show weakness
Is it okay that I...
Is it okay to can't wait to see you
Is it okay that I...
Is it okay to love a man right now
If you understand
Then show me your hands ooh hoo
Show me your hands
Boy if you understand
Somebody raised a man ooh hoo
Raised a man
I've never been treated the way I didn't want to be treated
It's hard to explain, I know it's hard to believe
I want what's coming at me
Perfection, protection (please, love)
Bring me all night long
Making love to our favourite songs
Your love teaches me how
To love so deep
Baby it's so sweet
I can't wait to pass you down
To the face that resembles you and me
Is it okay that I'm not independent
Is it okay that I...
Is it okay that I show weakness
Is it okay that I...
Is it okay to can't wait to see you
Is it okay that I...
Is it okay to love a man right now
If you understand
Then show me your hands ooh hoo
Show me your hands
Boy if you understand
Somebody raised a man ooh hoo
Raised a man
Everyday, and every night
I pray for one accord
I adore you even more
And every minute that passes me by
We can't afford
For us to be ignored
See we need each other
More than we even know oh ho
Somebody made a man
So show me how to raise a man ooh hoo
Raise a man
You can't be a man
If we don't raise a man ooh hoo
Raise a man
If you want a man
Then you gotta raise a man ooh hoo
Raise a man
If you understand
Then show me your hands ooh hoo
Show me your hands
