CHORUS
So I take one step forward, two steps back,
girl you know, I got yo back,
just to prove it, put it on wax,
forget what you knew, I'll show you these facts,
I'll show you these, I'll show you these,
some can't tell if it's love, I'm sure it is,
Think the whole world just needs more of this,
genuine feelings, I'm just, hoarding these, so...
one step forward, two steps back,
girl you know, I got yo back,
just to prove it, put it on wax,
forget what you knew, I'll show you these facts,
I'll show you these, I'll show you these,
some can't tell if it's love, I'm sure it is,
Think the whole world just needs more of this,
genuine feelings, I'm just, hoarding these, so...
VERSE
Now this the story of a boy, way before he had his swagger,
who just got his heart broke, starting a new chapter,
looking for that happy ever after,
in a city where the thought of, commitment, is met with laughter, whoa!
took a break from the chase to focus on himself,
isolate emotions, hoping it can help,
he had just about, given up on love,
till he seen a new coworker clocking in, whats up?!
just joking, he didn't, approach her like that,
she shone way too brightly, bouncing, light back,
type of girl that ain't down with the one night stand,
need something serious, wasting time, not in her plans,
it seemed, unlikely, to find a, gem like this,
kind of shawty, make you wanna hit the, gym and lift,
women swift, to turn me down, but I'mma get me this one!
Show her to the genie, if I had one wish, son!
Played the game, where I ask, her friends about her,
and creeping online, sorry, I just had to make sure,
you had open availability, moving with agility,
who knows how long she on the market? Best believe I'm bidding thee,
exact amount in my account, just to impress ya,
she said: I don't care for money but, thats a nice gesture,
let's do something simple, like a picnic in the park,
so he sat, with that bright girl, till it got dark.
REPEATED CHORUS
One step forward, two steps back,
girl you know, I got yo back,
just to prove it, put it on wax,
forget what you knew, I'll show you these facts,
I'll show you these, I'll show you these,
some can't tell if it's love, I'm sure it is,
Think the whole world just needs more of this,
genuine feelings, I'm just, hoarding these, so...
one step forward, two steps back,
girl you know, I got yo back,
just to prove it, put it on wax,
forget what you knew, I'll show you these facts,
I'll show you these, I'll show you these,
some can't tell if it's love, I'm sure it is,
Think the whole world just needs more of this,
genuine feelings, I'm just, hoarding these, so...
FINAL CHORUS
One step forward, two steps back,
girl you know, I got yo back,
just to prove it, put it on wax,
forget what you knew, I'll show you these facts,
I'll show you these, I'll show you these,
some can't tell if it's love, I'm sure it is,
Think the whole world just needs more of this,
genuine feelings, I'm just, hoarding these, so...
