What You Gotta Do (feat. Raheem DeVaughn) Lyrics


What You Gotta Do
Hey sip on some wine coolers
like you're19 again
when love was so naiveBefore pass relationships built the wall of bricks and
hit you on youre back when youre asleep
when she was rocking dookie braids
and time wasn't of the essence..
let the whole day pass away
rest in peace Saturday.I know you feel me, I know you hear me
so keep the baby happy thats what you need to doChorus:
'Cause what you wanna do, what you need
its what you gotta do to keep that woman
hard to keep that woman open
its what you want, (its what you want)
its what you need man yeah
its what you gotta do to keep that woman
hard to keep that woman openHigh School crush on the phone call, no no
no..interrupting ya'll

The pureness and innocence when love was.. so rich and fair
before broken hearts and separate feelings
when it was a thing to do
on the block , bitch caught you
but she was waiting with the ponytail
and bad mood with hoop earrings
standing at the bus stop sucking on a lollipop
and a round way type of girlI know you feel me, I know you hear me
to keep baby happy thats what you need to do2x
Thats what you wanna do, what you need
its what you gotta do to keep that woman
hard to keep that woman open
its what you want, (its what you want)
its what you need man yeah
its what you gotta do to keep that woman
hard to keep that woman openKeep your baby try this oh yeah
what you gotta do to keep that girl
keep that woman, gotta do to keep that woman
what you want, what you want, what you want
gotta to to keep that woman,
gotta do to keep that woman open,
what you want, what you need, open
you gotta do, you wanna do
what you want, what you need, open
you gotta do, you wanna do

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Andwele Gardner (born February 14, 1978 in Detroit, Michigan), better known simply as Dwele, is an American R&B and soul singer-songwriter and producer known for his work with Slum Village, J Dilla and Kanye West. After self-releasing the demo tape Rize in 2000, he released his debut studio album Subject in 2003 through Virgin Records, his second album Some Kinda followed in 2005 and his third studio album Sketches of a Man was released in 2008. His fourth studio album W.W.W. (W.ants. W.orld. W.omen) was released in 2010.

Although Dwele has had somewhat of a short career as a commercially avaliable artist, he has a vast catalogue of material currently unreleased that die-hard fans revere as some of his best work, considerably superior to his material released as a signed artist that showcases the true depth of his artistic and diverse talent, displayed without constraint.

Gardner was raised on the west side of Detroit in a musical family. He played piano from the age of six, later taking up trumpet, bass and guitar. He was deeply affected by the fatal shooting of his father outside his home when he was age ten, later stating "I learned to put my emotions into music; it was my therapy."

He cites Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway, Roy Ayers, Miles Davis, and Freddie Hubbard as favorite artists, and took inspiration from hip hop group A Tribe Called Quest, becoming an MC, and working with Slum Village. Gardner recorded a demo in his bedroom, called, The Rize, and sold it out of the trunk of his car. He had about 100 copies, which sold out within a week. He caught the ears of local heroes Slum Village and more specifically their world-renowned producer J Dilla. Slum Village invited Dwele to sing the hook of the song "Tainted" for their album Trinity (Past, Present and Future). It became an instant classic and led to more high profile work with female rapper Bahamadia, the all-star group Lucy Pearl and London's New Sector Movement. Dwele signed to Virgin Records in 2003, who released his debut album, Subject, which mixed neo soul and hip hop. In a 2005 review in The Independent, his style was summed up: "Dwele's rooted in vintage soul but isn't stuck in the past, overly reverential or an exercise in pastiche - there's a major hip-hop edge which betrays his original incarnation as a rapper." A second album, Some Kinda..., followed in 2005. He then later signed with RT Music Group and KOCH records in March, 2008. He is coming out with his fourth album titled, W.W.W. (W.ants. W.orld. W.omen) coming out June 29, 2010. Dwele was recently featured on the first single off of Kanye West's fifth studio album, Good Ass Job. The song was entitled "Power" and was leaked on May 28, 2010.
