[Intro]
And a din da [2x]
Uh, and a din da
[Verse 1]
Yo, I know you heard that last joint and thought, "This guy's always on one"
Like get the smallest violin and play that sad song, son"
That ain't the case for me though, so cut the instrumentation
Most of the time I live life like it's a celebration
Yeah, I'm riding solo, but forget it, that's more cash for me
At this party Politic, it's where I'd rather be
First year joint, new college, new people
And something's strong in my system
But it ain't too lethal
Life's taking effect
But it's beyond that
Let's just say, you won't need a number thrown at you to catch a contact
Electricity surges, something about tonight feels special
As I dance to the sound
Then I turn right around
That's when she caught my retinals
I noticed her looking back at me and time slows down
To register this moment as my mind goes
"Wow! Did you see her?"
Yeah, now I've got an infatuation
And thoughts of staying single have started evacuatin'
I turned away a few seconds after our eyes locked like magnets
Started talking to a friend to act like I'm not attracted
As I tell myself, "Don't even start to get that happy
"It's dark up in here
How do I know if she was really looking back at me?"
[Chorus 1]
Don't give me that, this is a moment that you need to own
Go over there right now and make your presence known
The past is the past, but the future's what you make it
If you even think you've got a chance, you better take it right now
Uh, you got a chance, you better take it
Hey, don't forsake it
Go over there right now
Uh, you got a chance, you better take it
Hey, don't forsake it, so...
[Verse 2]
I didn't take it, wasted the opportunity
We saw each others' faces and that was the proper cue for me
To at least go over there and start the conversation
Now some other guy's probably got her with no complication
So I spent the whole weekend thinking how I played the fool
Already sorry 'fore the first day at school
So, Monday morning I go to my first class and see what it has to offer me
Teacher breaks down the quotes
As I take down the notes
But guess who's sitting across from me?
It has to be that beautiful girl from Friday night
And automatically I'm reminded of my stage fright
And she's looking back at me and it's in broad daylight
No excuses, use this opportunity to say hi
I make a small wave, flash a smile
She does the same, it's a quick connection
It all took place in what felt like a millisecond
But it's still a possibility that something between us could happen
Then I tell myself, "Man, that was a pitiful interaction
She could be just being nice while you have a physical attraction"
"She don't know you from Adam
So dial it back some
Man, quit jumping to thoughts of passion"
I'm like, "Yeah, you're right, I'll just catch her after class then
I will, I swear"
[Chorus 2]
Don't give me that, this is a moment that you need to own
Go over there right now and make your presence known
The past is the past, but the future's what you make it
If you even think you've got a chance, you better take it right now
Uh, you got a chance, you better take it
Hey, don't forsake it
Go over there right now
Yeah, you got a chance, you better take it
Hey, don't forsake it
Go over there right now
Uh, you got a chance, you better take it
Hey, don't forsake it
Go over there right now
Yeah, you got a chance, you better take it
Hey, don't forsake it
Go over there right now
