So even in the crazy relationships
And the crazy experiences with love
I'm a firm believer that it is out there
And you first find it within yourself
It's within you
We are fearfully,
Wonderfully, and beautiful made
I believe that with every fiber of my being
So this next song that I wrote
I'm gonna ask my boy Javaris
Who played on the record with me
Make some noise for Javaris Gooding Butts
This song is about fully loving you
And you can't go to your next phase of love
If you don't love yourself
This song is called, "Naked"
It says,
I've been waiting
Ahhhh
Waiting
Yo
I've been waiting
For you to see me like this
For every scar, every flaw
To lie bare on the floor
Don't wanna hear it no more
Cause I've dealt with the pain
I've dealt with the heartbreak
I've made mistakes,
But that was back then, this is now
I'm ready to show you now
I'm ready to show you how I've grown
And, I've been waiting for you to see me naked... naked.
I'm not wearing insecurities.
Would you like that?
What else do you wanna see?
I haven't been in love like this in such a long time
Who'd ever thought the love of my life
Would be staring into my eyes
When I look into the mirror,
I can see clearer now,
That I'm naked
Oh
It feels so good
To be naked
Would you join me?
Ooh
Take off all your flaws
Oh, yea
Undress every scar
Until you see
That we...
Are naked
I wanna be
Naked, naked, naked
Thank you.
Give it up for Javaris Gooding-Butts
