Are You That Somebody? Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Boy, I've been watching you like a hawk in the sky
That flies, and you were my prey (my prey)
Boy, I promise you if we keep bumpin' heads
I know that one of these days (days)
We gon' hook it up, pro'ly talk on the phone
But see, I don't know if that's good
I've been holdin' back this secret from you
I probably shouldn't tell it, but if I

[Hook]
If I let you know
You can't tell nobody, I'm talkin' bout nobody
Are you responsible?
Boy I gotta watch my back, cause I'm not just anybody
Is it my go? Is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody
Right now naughty-naughty
Say yes or say no
Cause I really need somebody
Tell me are you that somebody?

[Verse 2]
Boy, won't you pick me up at the park right now
Up the block, while evеryone (Sleep, sleeps, sleeps)
I'll be waiting therе with my trench, my locs, my hat
Just so I'm lowkey
If you tell the world
(Don't speak, you know that would be weak)
Oh boy, see I'm trusting you with my heart, my soul
I probably shouldn't let you but if I
[Hook]
If I let you know
You can't tell nobody, I'm talkin' bout nobody
Are you responsible?
Boy I gotta watch my back, cause I'm not just anybody
Is it my go? Is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody
Right now naughty-naughty
Say yes or say no
Cause I really need somebody
Tell me are you that somebody?

[Bridge]
Cause I really need somebody
Tell me you're that somebody

[Hook]
If I let you know
You can't tell nobody, I'm talkin' bout nobody
Are you responsible?
Boy I gotta watch my back, cause I'm not just anybody
Is it my go? Is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody
Right now naughty-naughty
Say yes or say no
Cause I really need somebody
Tell me are you that somebody?
