Gather round gather round people
I'm about to tell you my story
In fact it could be your story
Her story
History in the making
AKA
Excuse me young love
I know I made a few mistakes in my life
But l'mma do whatever it takes to get right
So if there's anything you think that
I should know before we fall in love
Before we fall in love
Chilling like
In my B-Boy stats
With my back to the wall cos real Gs don't dance
I got my drink my two step my lingo back
Me and my niggas we do it bigger than Rilo's ass
Suddenly I'm like God damn who is that
Couple of drinks later acquainted in the house to be an entertainer
My boy knows her from around the way
Told me she's my cousins friend
Anyway it's a long story
So of course we exchange numbers it's all gravy
For the album on face book like l baby
Second time look at her face like boy take me
Took her upstairs, and hit it with no safety
Uh uh, stupid decisions I made
Why you think this track is called mistakes
I was just thinking I would hit it and never catch feelings
She says how about we start to date
I start thinking
Excuse me young love
I know I made a few mistakes in my life
But l'mma do whatever it takes to get right
So is there anything you thinking that I
Should know before we fall in love
Before we fall in love
And uh
Now we getting more serious
Far past the honeymoon period
We joining at the hips somebody I can just kick it with
She got me buying gifts, niggas telling me that I'm whipped
Of course the haters gon' talk and I tried to dismiss it as lips
The more I'm disliking this shit I find the deeper I dig
Now what the fuck am I supposed to believe?
When she attended more award shows than I did?
Now all I got is this jealousy and a bottle of Tennesee
Old number 17 cos I can't afford Hennesey
Now it all makes sense to me
As I wind my memory back
That's why she acted all shy when we ran into rappers
I guess she was thinking the past wouldn't catch up
But now I got to deal with the results of her actions
I bet the niggas is laughing
Fucking with inexperience, this is what happens
Aw man
Excuse me young love
I know I made a few mistakes in my life
But I'mma do whatever it takes to get right
So if's there anything you thinking that I
Should know before we fall in love
Before we fall in love
Ooh, now you in the shits
Do you love me? Or love all the attention you get?
When you step to the door and your name is on the list
And who you slept with before really isn't my biz
But I'm curious ha-ha
I wanna know what's on your mind
She told me, baby ain't nobody perfect
But you changed me, made me into a better person
Plus I ain't done nothing to play you
And I stayed hundred percent faithful
Just went through all the insecurities the young girls do
Trying to find the attention, missing at an all girls school
But I never hit you up like all the bitches on Facebook
Now look, if that's all behind you
Then I guess I can look past it if try to
And I don't want to spend my time fighting the night through
Excuse me young love
I know I made a few mistakes in my life
But I'mma do whatever it takes to get right
So if's there anything you thinking that I
Should know before we fall in love
Before we fall in love
