My Man
Destiny's Child · Other Songs - Destiny's Child
Leave him alone cause he's gonna hurt you
But what they don't know is how he makes me feel
You say that he creeps, always runnin' the streets
He's playin' the game and he'll never love me
You say that he's fake, but why does it feel so real
No matter what you say, I ain't goin' nowhere
No matter what you think, I'ma always be there
The love that we share, it lives inside of me
No matter what you're fearin', it's all in the past
No matter what you're feelin', this love is gon' last
The heart of his soul, it breathes inside of me
[chorus]
My man (he makes me feel so special)
My man (he makes me feel so precious)
My man (he makes me feel wonderful)
My man (I'm feelin' so comfortable)
My man (he makes me feel so special)
My man (he makes me feel so precious)
My man (he makes me feel wonderful)
He's thugged out, but he's my man
You say you don't trust him because he been locked up
You say that he's trouble cause he out in the strip club
But, you were young once, so you should understand
You say that you know, so you been a witness
You say it's for sure, so he got a mistress
Until you can show me, I'm gon' stand by him
No matter what you say, I ain't goin' nowhere
No matter what you think, I'ma always be there
The love that we share, it lives inside of me
No matter what you're fearin', it's all in the past
No matter what you're feelin', this love is gon' last
The heart of his soul, it breathes inside of me
[chorus]
My man (he makes me feel so special)
My man (he makes me feel so precious)
My man (he makes me feel wonderful)
My man (I'm feelin so comfortable)
My man (he makes me feel so special)
My man (he makes me feel so precious)
My man (he makes me feel wonderful)
He's thugged out, but he's my man
