10 To My 21 Feat. Tru

from UNCHARTED TERRITORY by M-Theory

/

about

This song was originally recorded in full as a solo song by another Abstract Sound Productions' artist, Tru. M-Theory liked the song so much he ask Trus's permission to add a few verses to it and include it on the album. Another one of M-Theory's favorite beats produced by Aaron G. The original version of the song recorded by Tru was about dating a girl 10 years his senior. M-Theory didnt feel that concept fit him, so one night over the phone Aaron G suggested he write it about a game of black jack, and that each verse he wrote add up to 21 measures. Which was incorporated. Theory adapted this idea and made it so the subject, or love interest in the song, was described through a metaphor as being 10 to his 21 in a game of black jack. In other words he was the Ace, and she was his queen. To hear more from Tru visit: www.myspace.com/tru916

lyrics

10 To My 21 Feat Tru:

V#1:(Tru):
1- I seen her from a distance and I had to know.
2-Where she was coming from and where she wants to go.
3-She turned to me an said what do you want from this.
4-Cuz I aint waisting time if you aint serious.

Hook: (Tru):
I wanna sweep you off your feet, I wanna be the one you keep. I wanna be the love that you'd never regret to meet. I wanna be the one you trust, I wanna be the one you love. But I will never know your heart until you let me in.
10 to my 21 (X8)

V#2:(M-Theory):
1-My gambling addiction starts with affliction of her on my suite of hearts.
2-Deal me in baby I’m not thinking bout consequences, conscientious state of mind isn’t present.
3-U can call it a risk but Ima take my chances, of true love a real romances.
4-No passion without real desire, that aint nothing new you preaching to the choir.
5-Shes my queen I’m her ace you can check the facts, so all them other jokers yeah they need to relax.
6-My infatuation plus her seduction, only causes magnetic induction.
7-Her and I are 21 in this game of blackjack, every weekend in the morning she cooking me flapjacks.
8-But the outcome is unpredictable, play by my own rule not the traditional.
9-Some say the wager can be abdicable, I say her love is strictly medicinal.
10-Baby I promise never to split, never submit always commit and never quit.

V#3:(M-Theory)
1-She raising the stakes I’m upping the ante, she only knew me as a musical vigilante.
2-She aint pulling one pass me I’m counting cards to make sure when she comes around Ima be ready.
3-And steady stable enough for if I bust I loose the lust and love of the only one I trust.
4-They say the odds are in favor of the house, I push the first time and come back wit no doubt.
5-No material value is equal to her, yo betting’s recreational is where we differ.
6-She aint phased by the glitz and the glamour of this casino, u could say we’re legal once we get into Reno.
7-It aint illusion of control experimental demonstration, 21 is genuine in our situation.
8-I get impatient waiting for the hand to be dealt, this is the realist thing that I’ve ever felt.
9-Things don’t add up they really don’t make sense, unless I got my queen to keep suspense intense.
10-Im the ace she’s the queen and this game is done, you can call her 10 to my 21.
