The Line - D'Angelo

I’ve gotta tell you tell you about it Ive been gone for so long

I just wanna sing my song

I know you been hearin

hearin a lot of things about me oh I know I know

I’ve heard I have heard it all to clear

this is what I am going to do

I am goin to hold hold on to my pride

I’m gonna stick im gonna stick to my guns

I’m gonna put my finger on the trigger

I’m gonna pull it and we gon see what the deal

I’m for real, I just wanna put it, put it on the line

I’ve gotta put it on the line

and we havent got much time

I’ve gotta put it on the line

know what im talking bout this evening

I’ve gotta put it on the line

I’ve got a bullet in the chamber

and im not afraid of the danger

we’ve gotta go down to the wire

I’ll go through the fire with you

kill and die with you

I know everybody watchin me the pressure is on from every angle

political to personal

Will I hang or be left hangin?

Will I fall off?

or will it be bangin?

I say its up to the man upstairs

I am goin to hold, hold on to my pride

I’m gonna stick, im gonna stick to my guns

I’m gonna put my finger on the trigger

I’m gonna pull it and we gon see what the deal

I’m for real, I just wanna put it, put it on the line

I’ve gotta put it on the line

and we havent got much time

I’ve gotta put it on the line

know what I’m talking bout this evening

I’ve gotta put it on the line
