lyrics
[Intro: Sample & Bekah]
[Sample] What can I say
[Bekah] What can I say
[Sample] To make you stay,
Baby don't leave me
[Hook: Bekah]
What can I say,
To make you stay (stay),
What can I say,
To make you stay (stay)
[Verse 1: Bekah]
I'm addicted to everything about you,
The beat and bass, melody and harmony,
You're all I know, I live for you,
I'm at my highest point in life when I'm around you,
You're the only one that keeps me sane,
I can't function, you're the food for my brain,
You're my, my life, my all,
I need you in my world
[Hook: Bekah]
What can I say,
To make you stay (stay),
What can I say,
To make you stay (stay)
[Verse 2: Cee]
Listen, since I was just a youngun, music been my fixture,
Headphones was permanently glued to my head, yeah I'm addicted,
You'd rarely find a moment when I wasn't with her,
The six-string was my thing until the mic called and I picked up,
And that was more than a decade back,
My folks always kept saying it's a phase, it'll pass (never that),
But I, knew better, my feelings was grounded,
Now I live it, work my whole damn life around it, yeah,
I'm so willing, and, my soul feel it, yeah,
I cold spit it, flow is so sid-ick, and,
I won't quit it, the groove is a part of me,
My life is the melody, my soul is the harmony,
So to all my DJs, musicians,
MCs, beatboxers, poets and vocalists,
We in it 'til the death coz the art is so in us,
I can feel my heart move with the beat, are y'all with us? And it...
[Hook: Bekah]
What can I say,
To make you stay (stay),
What can I say,
To make you stay (stay)
[Verse 3: Cee]
What more can I say? You already know how I'm feelin',
So I ain't even finna get to spillin' my sentiment up in here again,
And it ain't my world without you in it,
Fam and my girl and the tunes keep a dude livin',
In a world full of ups and downs,
Like a Russell Simmons cheque, bet you never gonna bounce,
And it seems to me we still ain't finna step back, oooh,
Coz in the end, we need the music too, just let 'em know ma
[Hook: Bekah]
What can I say,
To make you stay (stay),
What can I say,
To make you stay (stay)
What can I say,
To make you stay (stay),
What can I say,
To make you stay (stay)
