Note to Self
[Intro]
One, two, three, four
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, oohOoh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
And wherever we go
And whatever we do
And whatever we see
And whoever we be
It don't matter, it don't matter
I don't mind 'cause you don't matter
I don't mind 'cause I don't matter
(And don't shit matter) You'll see in the end

[Verse]
I've got a feeling that there's somethin' more
Something that holds us together
Something that holds us together
The strangest feeling but I can't be sure
Something that's old as forever
Something that's old as forever
Love, love, love, love

[Chorus]
And wherever we go
And whatever we do
And whatever we see
And whoever we be
It don't matter, ahh, it don't matter
I don't mind 'cause you don't matter, ay
I don't mind 'cause I don't matter
(And don't shit matter) You'll see in the end, ahh!

Only one fuckin' thing matters and that's your happiness
And the only way you gon' get to that happiness
Is through love, real, genuine, motherfuckin' love man
Not the fake shit, not the Hollywood shit
Not the n***as giving you props so you think you the shit
Not motherfuckers knowing you so you think you famous
Not n***as seeing your whip and they want your whip
So you feel good 'cause they want your whip
Or they want your bitch, so you feel better, fuck that, real love
Where your crib is at n***a, where your heart is at
Where your home is at, where your mom is at, where your girl is at
