Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Too hard
I'm in love with a thug
I can't help it, girl, he treats me so good
In the street, he gets respect from his peers
Known for months, but if you'll like, it's been years
Ah, ah, in a situation
Any guy that holla at me, it's real confrontation
But lovin' is my baby's job occupation
And he's good at what he do when graded havin' relation, ah
[Verse 2]
Thugs give good lovin'
Whoa, they're supersonic
The way he treats me different
Ooh, like he bionic
Yeah, he work that
I say yeah, it's so perfect
[Verse 3]
I used to be scared of thugs
I was told that thugs don't know how to love
They say they beat, they cheat, they talk to girls like, oh
But my man respect me 'cause I'm a down, oh
[Verse 4]
Ah, ah, wasn't anticipating
That if I fell in love with a thug that I would end up dating
Instead, he blew my mind and treated me like a queen
He run his streets but he know how to treat me, ah
[Verse 5]
Thugs give good lovin'
Whoa, they're supersonic
The way he treats me different
Ooh, like he bionic
Yeah, he work that
I say yeah, it's so perfect
[Verse 6]
I'm in love with a thug 'cause he make me feel right
Wish I could explain what he make me feel like, yeah
And my friends don't like
'Cause he hot on the block and he be ridin' Ninja bikes, yeah
Let me get his sizzle on the mic
Like an MC with no deal, tryna get me your kite, yeah
Let me clear my windpipe
Man got a pipe that'll blow out every night, yeah
We're the first here, I'm the best here
Come over here, got thugs in here
Front to the rear
Craig Mac gon' put the flavor in your ear
He ain't got time to keep bustin' in lines
Blowin' your minds
Cuttin' that circular size, yeah
Play it wise
Cause I'm in love with a thug occupyin' my time
[Verse 7]
Thugs give good lovin'
Whoa, they're supersonic
The way he treats me different
Ooh, like he bionic
Yeah, he work that
I say yeah, it's so perfect
Let the track play
