Tainted - Slum Village, Dwele

Real love, true love

It feels good girl

Tainted love

It’s so good girl, real love

True love, it’s alright baby tainted love, real love, true love

Tainted love

Think of her think of me

Think about us, it’s a intimacy

I’m trying to strum like guitars in this beat

And consider riding she’ll kick the blahzay spleen

Plus you got a man, but he ain’t quite me

The type of man that try to give you what you need

And he wanna know where you are, where you be

Where you going, where you today, where you started to be, damn

If I was him I wouldn’t even leave

I would trust you what you say that you are where you been

Say he the type of nigga that’s still cheap

Take his girl on a date and they go to Mickey D’s

See, I’m the type that try to stab in a jeep

Try to take you out to see things and occasionally creep

Yeah, your man is doing things I can’t really see

Don’t sound too good, it sound tainted to me

Real love (It's so real girl) true love (It's so right girl)

Tainted love (It's real) real love (It's so good girl)

True love (For real love) tainted love (Tainted)

Real love (Yeah yeah) true love (It's so good girl) real love

How many years does it take for a record to blow?

I’m doing exactly how many licks it took for my hoes

Spending your cash flow cause she was so out ho

Scandal love, cause love full of scandal

Too much chick for that ass she couldn’t handle that

Well it’s the same tainted love in the music business

People they lose their brain just to get up in this

Let’s be a star for a day, everything in life is just okay

People say things they don’t really wanna say

Hey but it’s okay, cause you’re a star for the day

People a smile at you when they really wanna frown

Well a that’s just the way tainted folk get down

Just keep it real and, we’ll see

When the situation is tainted love is always free

Love is always free

Real love, true love, tainted love, real love

True love, tainted love, real love, true love, real

You say you love me, but is it really real?

Would you, fix me green tea if I’m feeling ill

Could you, give me a back rub to sooth after a long day?

Dinner by candlelight but you’re the main entree

And if so, I do the same with other treats to give you

Trailing rose pedals from your door to beneath your pillow

With a bucket of champagne on your night stand

Experience with someone who want in they lifespan

The same…

Real love, real, real, everybody knows that love’s real love

Someone to trust in you for real

Everybody need love;

that’s real

I would never want nothing tainted

Wait a minute, what you feel?

Faded if your loving was tainted

True, oh, I know true love is hard to find

Just let it find you;

for real

If you found love to keep it real

Keep love from being tainted, being tainted

Oooh then you’ll, be, alright

(T3: Just sit y’all, Dwele, on more time, y’all, come on)

Then you’ll, be, alright
