Lyrics

[Intro] With ears to hear, all subtle [?] And eyes that see with clarity The dark creature of a single blood To all the girls in the world [Verse 1] I'm thanking you girl for changing my life  For making me whole and being my wife For holding me tight and all through the night  And trusting in me and lusting for free Yes, I played the game, wrote so many names Across my heart that I hoped to die To fall up again, I wouldn't even try But you came along, so good and so strong Your hair was so bomb, your ideas That fly kind of weird, wildness and pure Yeah, I'm sure You pose like a poster, honey glowed up Your jeans is a holster, look over your shoulder Your eyes start to smolder (At me) If I knew you there I would show up  You'd see me and show off  Nep knew I dug you, I told you, "I love you" You gone, it's a struggle, move on, ooh, it's tough to  But seasons they pass and change And good things don't last, remains They wash up on the shores of my mind Somehow getting stronger with time (Stronger)   [Chorus] I'm thanking you girl, I'm loving you I'm thanking you girl, I'm loving you I'm thanking you girl, I'm loving you I'm thanking the girls, I'm loving you [Verse 2] I'm thanking you, Dee, for being so free and being so g So kind and so fine, big sister, divine, and taking your time  And Khaila, who's flyer? Baby hair styling, got all the jokes Dee said when y'all out you want all the smoke I'm just so happy how y'all are so close I'm just so happy when both the girls close to me Laughing, relaxing, and clowning, free (Oh, that's your boyfriend, nice to meet you brother) If he should get out of line, I'm a down him Bottom line, rain or shine, family  Put one up one time for moms and your grannies When Jazz have a baby, think about it I'm gon' be g-pop and y'all gon' be aunties  But life is a garden of forking paths Highs arise then lows arrive fast The only way past it, to get off your ass Your value not tied up in shit from no man But y'all knew that The one thing that you can count on is dad  I'm thanking you girls [Chorus] I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you I'm thanking you girls, I'm loving you [Outro] La-la-la, la-la-la La-la-la, yeah I'm lovin' you, I'm lovin' you I'm thanking the girls, I'm lovin' you I'm thanking the girls, I'm lovin' you
