The title of this video caught my attention for one specific reason. Thats exactly how I felt. But bruh peep game. And I feel like this speaks for a lot of us. Remember Kings of Comedy with Steve, B-Mac, and them? Facts, we all done seen that a million times. It wasn't until last week, damn near twenty years later that I actually thought to look up this song. After hearing Steve Harvey go in about how much this man loved this woman that he wrote the greatest love song ever for her. I can't even front. I'm SO embarrassed that I never had the sense to listen to this before. This joint hits you in a way that most of us done forget exists 🙌🏿
