American singer, Monica unveils the song, “Friends” featuring Ty Dolla $ign. Listen, read the lyrics, buy the song.

Monica Friends

Monica has been in the music and entertainment industry since the 90s. Her soulful voice and meaningful lyrics have allowed her to sell more than 25 million records, win numerous Grammys, and produce chart-topping hits. It had been a while since she dropped a single, but the 41-year-old songstress has returned to let fans know that she’s still got it– and she didn’t do it alone.

Ty Dolla $ign, born Tyrone William Griffin Jr., is a singer from Los Angeles who is known for his harmonizing vocals and memorable adlibs. On Friday (July 15), the Georgia native teamed up with Ty and dropped “Friends.” Together, the two combined their voices on the four-minute track centered around not caring about how their friends view their romantic relationships.

Equipped with guitar strums and bass, Monica started the record by singing, “I got friends, baby/Just like you/They don’t understand what we going through/We can go back and forth/That’s how we do.” Towards the end of the track, the two artists had a full-on sing-off, mimicking Patti LaBell’s “Somebody Loves You, Baby.”

Lyrics

[Intro: Monica]
Tada-la-dada
Tada-lada-da-da, yeah
([?] fuck it up)

[Verse 1: Monica]
I got friends, baby, just like you (Just like you)
But they don’t understand it (Understand), what we’re going through (What we’re going through)
We can go back and forth, that’s all we do (That’s all we do)
[?], just me and you (Just me and you)
I got your back, yeah (I got your back)
You got my front, yeah (You got my front)
That’s how we love (That’s how we love)
We do what we want (We do what we want)
They don’t notice all the little things (Notice all the little things)
In everything you do (In everything you do)

[Chorus: Monica]
That’s why I love you, darling (I love you darling, yeah, ooh-ooh)
And there’s nothing they can do (Do, do, do) about it, baby (Do)
Oh, oh (Oh, oh)
That’s why I love you, baby (Love you, baby)
Oh, yeah (Yeah)
And there’s nothing they can do (Do, do, do) about it, baby
Oh, oh, oh (And there’s nothing they can do about it)
I love you, baby (Love you, baby, yeah)
And there’s nothing they can do about it (Do about it, baby)
Baby, baby (Baby)

[Verse 2: Ty Dolla $ign]
Okay, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

It ain’t even worth it for you, to be upset
Times like this we’ll regret
Don’t say that you’re over it, oh
Oh, oh
Bullshit tryna be shit, if we let it
Just gonna love you more than a little bit, and I meant it
Look you in your eyes when we made love and I was sincere, oh, oh, oh, oh
I love you, darling

[Chorus: Ty Dolla $ign, Monica]
That’s why I love you, baby (I love you, baby)
Yeah, I love you, darling (I love you, darling)
And there’s nothing they can do (Nothing they can do)
Nothing they can do (Oh)
That’s why I love you, baby
I love you, baby
I love my baby, I love you
And there’s nothing they can do, ooh, oh, oh-woah
