‘You’ is a song about the passionate pursuit of love against all appearing odds, overlooking doubt, risk and appearances, even when the toxic is lurking. […]
The song is a fusion of afrobeats, afro-carribean and pop influences with variations between the hook, the two bridges and the melodies in the verses.
lyrics
They want money, they want...
Let them have the money, the bitches, the... Strippers!
[Hook - Ya Minko]
I have options, way too many, make the envy of so many
They want money, they want riches
But all I want is you (you...)
I've been praying, for some better days to come, and I feel cheated
In my hardships, and my folly
All I want is you (you...)
[Bridge 1 - Ya Minko]
And momma always told me I should watch it
Momma always told me I should watch it with these women, with these...
Momma always told me I should watch it...
But all I want is you (you...)
Said momma always told me I should watch it
Momma always told me I should watch it with these women, with these...
Momma always told me I should watch it...
But all I want is you
I'm such a fool!
[Bridge 2 - Ya Minko]
He will never listen, if man is in love he will never listen
No, no, no, no!
He will never leave her, if man is in love he we will never leave her
No, no, no, no!
You cannot seperate'am, if man is in love you can't separate'am
No, no, no, no
He will not ever leave her!
If man is in love he will never leave her
No, no, no, no!
No, no, no, no...
No, no, no, no...
[Verse 1 - Erwin Dollar]
Every time you feeling so lonely
Baby girl you can call on me...
And every time you need that good loving
Baby girl you can count me...
You got the keys to my heart babe
Tell me what you want, I go do babe
Only you that I want babe
So come and take a ride with me babe
Girl I don't mind to lie for you!
See I don't mind to die for you!
Girl I don't mind to spend the rest of my life, just to prove my love for you!
[Hook - Ya Minko]

[Bridge 1 - Ya Minko]
And momma always told me I should watch it
Momma always told me I should watch it with these women, with these...
Momma always told me I should watch it...
But all I want is you (you...)
Said momma always told me I should watch it
Momma always told me I should watch it with these women, with these...
Momma always told me I should watch it...
But all I want is you
I'm such a fool!
[Verse 2 - Ya Minko]
See
See it feels like my whole world is coming to an end
Every time I think of losing you...
And they begging me daily to leave you behind
They don't know you like I do...
You...
Pure and beautiful, even when you're purely evil
You...
Take all my dreams, and my mind to a different level
So I don't wanna listen to my friends
And I don't wanna listen to my brain
And I don't wanna make no sense!
I wanna take a chance and let God decide...
I don't wanna listen to my friends
I don't wanna listen to my brain...
I wanna take a chance and let God decide
God decide...
[Hook - Ya Minko]
