Yo, this is a lesson in friendship, the depths of a kinship
What women and men begin with and then slip
My pen drips as I scribble my thoughts on thin strips of emotion
A fraction, seduction, attraction, eruption of passion
Corrupts if a lasted friendship's involved
Would love to cross the line but that's why we built these walls
[Hook: Jurassic 5]
We been friends for a long time, a very close friend of mine
Love ya like ya was mine but respect the thin line
I love ya like ya was mine, think about ya all the time
Very close friend of mine but respect the thin line
[Akil]
Opposite's attract when the female and male come in contact
Sticky situation, in fact tryin' not to let the feelings catch
But there's a thin line between both of y'all so you respect that
And entertain the idea but get brought back- to reality
And could you really live with that- decision based on intuition?
You love and keep it distant, hug and kiss in friendship
[Marc 7]
An ongoing kinship, we was people to begin with
Disrespect was not intended but your feelings sparked the sentence
Sometimes you're too intense in your quest to invent- the perfect man Please
understand my rhyme is your repent
[Hook: Jurassic 5 and Mya together]
We been friends for a long time, a very close friend of mine

I love ya like ya was mine, think about ya all the time
Very close friend of mine but respect the thin line
We been friends for a long time, a very close friend of mine
Love ya like ya was mine but respect the thin line
I love ya like you was mine, think about ya all the time

Man too bad that we became friends first
And I'm not an expert on how relationships should work
But {*echoes*} from the minute it was known
It changed the whole tone, the way we spoke on the phone
Yo it was cool but I felt it wasn't enough
And I was stuck when your moms would pick it up
Over you all my buddies would swoon
But I felt we were in tune
You let me up in your room (damn)
But to me girl you're still off limits
No matter all the times that I hinted (yo, what you doin' after this?)
Infactuation was authentic
But yo I just pretended so I wouldn't lose the friendship
Maybe I should spill all my guts
Or write a letter then tear it up
Or do a song just to say what's up
I want... just... a touch
[Hook: Jurassic 5 and Mya together]
We been friends for a long time, a very close friend of mine

I love ya like ya was mine, think about ya all the time
Very close friend of mine but respect the thin line

What happens if we cross the line?
Can't take it back, can't ever go back
Damn you're such a good friend to me now
But the attraction's undeniable
See I know ya as my brother but could see you as my lover
So what am I gonna do now?
Cuz physical relations want confrontation
Ooh what are we gonna do now?

Yo, this was a lesson in friendship
I stress in this sentence:
Should women and men be friends first and then slip?
My pen drips as I scribble my thoughts on thin strips of devotion
[Akil]
Opposites attract and best friends make a perfect match
If you only knew that
But once you cross, ain't no turning back
The minute you let him in it and he hit that, that's that
[Marc 7]
We was people to begin with but you was too relentless
Jeporidizing kinship, respect is intended, resolve is my intent
While we got it in I'm tryin to salvage a friendship
[Hook: Jurassic 5 and Mya together]
