I’m your body
Hard, Hottie or Shoddy
As the saying goes
You are what you eat with no exception to anybody
And concerning your health you can’t be lottie dottie
You ain’t got but one body
And though science transplants organs
There’s been no advancement for the transplanting of our bodies
I’m your body
Treat me right I’ll serve you whole heartedly
Cause I got to be healthy and strong
Look how you got me working all day long
The last thing you need is that cigarette smoke going down within my lungs
I’m your body
And you better be careful with those toddies
My liver and kidneys from that stuff get shoddy
Gon’ find yourself needing another from another body
I’m your body
Fat, trans-fat, mono-saturated fat, poly-saturated fat, too much fat
Will clog my arteries and give me attacks
My heart will rev like a Cadillac
And won’t slow down till I reduce my intake of fat
I’m your body
Susceptible to disease from anybody
And “germs” all folk got “em”
They’re both in the air and within our bodies
That’s why with me you need to take precautions
I’m your body
Giving you a heads up on how to live
Like the taste or not eat your veggies still
Know when you’re maxed out on the ribs
Check your cholesterol and live
I’m your body
And I know how you sometimes feel
When you’re trying to kick in a stubborn will
Especially when exercising ain’t your thrill
But to keep me fit
You got to pay the bill
I’m your body
Sexual promiscuity to me is folly
May seem old fashioned to be conjoined to only one body
But God made the law with no exception to anybody
And that only in marriage has he allowed it
I’m your body
Just telling it like it (T I S) tis
Hoping you get the message so we both can live
Cause sooner or later something’s got to give
I’m your body
Treat me like somebody and you’ll be somebody
Treat me like nobody and you won’t be anybody
Cause I will dissolve and self destruct
Leave you so fast you’ll think lightning struck
I’m your body
Tough alone but not tough enough
I’ve told you what I need
Can you deliver the stuff
Only time will tell what you’re really made of
I’m your body
Your body
Your body
