The Fact Is (I Need You)

Lyrics

I can pay my own light bill baby
 Pump my own gas in my own car
 I can buy my own shoe collection
 I've been blessed thus far
 ♪
 I can kill the spider above my bed
 Although it's hard because I'm scared
 I can even stain and polyurethane
 But some things just don't change
 I need you yeah
 Sometimes so hard to say oh
 I need you
 Some things remain
 ♪
 I could buy my own groceries baby
 Get my hair tight, my nails right
 I can floss my own bling bling
 Write the words to the songs I sing
 I can even raise the child we'll make
 Make sure he's loved and knows what God gave us
 I can teach him how to walk and stand
 But he needs you to help him be a man
 We need you
 So hard to say
 We need you
 Some things don't change
 I could be congresswoman
 Or a garbage woman or
 Police officer, or a carpenter
 I could be a doctor and a lawyer and a mother and a good girl
 God what you've done to me
 Kind of lover I could be
 I could be a computer analyst, the Queen with the nappy hair raising her fist
 Or I could be much more and a myriad of this
 Hot as the summer, sweet as the first kiss
 And even though I can do all these things
 
 I need you
 ♪
 And even though I can do all these things
 We need you
 We need you
 We need you
 And even though I can do all these things by my damn self
 I need you
 I do, I do, I do, I do
 And even though I can do all these things
 I need you
 We need you
 We do
 ♪
 We need you yeah
 ♪
 We need you
