Teyana Taylor We Got Love

Teyana Taylor has been relatively quiet musically since the 2018 release of K.T.S.E., but it must be because she’s been hard at work. Late last year, Taylor responded to a frustrated fan by announcing that she would be releasing her next album on December 6th (2019). Fans were both upset and excited that instead of releasing an album, Taylor decided to drop the stand-alone single “We Got Love”.

We first heard of “We Got Love” from a Saturday Night Live performance featuring Kanye West, but even after months of speculation and reports of a music video, we never got to hear the finished song. The K.T.S.E. singer-songwriter later explained to us that clearance issues had been prolonging the release, however, we still expected to hear it soon.

Almost two years later, Teyana Taylor decided to take matters into her own hands, completely scrapping footage from the first reported music video and instead opting to self-direct an African-inspired, pro-Black music video that stars her and her beautiful family.

The video concludes with a series of home-videos playing under the tone of Ms. Lauryn Hill’s voice. Taylor has been vocal about her frustrations with the industry in the past but now chooses to empower herself through the wise words of the legendary Lauryn Hill. Ms. Hill speaks on clarity, focus, love, as well as internal value and integrity.

Lyrics

[Intro: The Younghearts & Teyana Taylor]
We got love, love, love
You better believe it (Say, love, love)
We got love, love, love
You better believe it

[Verse 1: Teyana Taylor]
I got house and the carriage, yeah
I got black love in marriage, yeah
They gon’ say, “You can’t have it”, but
I’m like, “Don’t kill the messenger”
We gon’ break the stigma up
Huxtables turned to Obamas
It ain’t about where you been
Where you from, what you got, it’s all about love
Self-love is the best lo-ove
When you gon’ take that wristband off?
That pity party been over
Don’t need makeup to dress you up
I gave birth on the bathroom floor
Just me, Iman, and headphone cords
Don’t let this life defeat you
I hope this message reach you

[Chorus: Teyana Taylor]
Throw your hands up
Play catch with the hunnids
Love is the new money
I’m just chillin’ with the homies, home is where the heart is
Throw your hands up
Play catch with the hunnids
Love is the new money
I’m just chillin’ with the homies, home is where the heart is, ah

[Bridge: The Younghearts & Teyana Taylor]
We got love, love, love
You better believe it (Say, love, love)
We got love, love, love
You better believe it (Say, love, love)

[Verse 2: Teyana Taylor]
I live in abundance
Love is the new money
I’m mentally wealthy
Spiritually conscious
I’m fresh outta Onyx
I’m bawlin’ and ballin’
I play with the hunnids
Love is the new money
That’s my frequency
Spark up, burn the sage
Clear the room, kill the hate
Love is the new wave

[Chorus: Teyana Taylor]
Play catch with the hunnids
Love is the new money
I’m just chillin’ with the homies, home is where the heart is, ah
Play catch with the hunnids
Love is the new money
I’m just chillin’ with the homies, home is where the heart is, ah (Throw your hands up)

[Bridge: The Younghearts & Teyana Taylor]
We got love, love, love
You better believe it (Throw your hands up, love, love, say)
We got love, love, love (Throw your hands up)
You better believe it (Throw your hands up, love, love, say)
We got love, love, love (Throw your hands up)
You better believe it (Throw your hands up, love, love, say)
We got love, love, love (Throw your hands up)
You better believe it (Throw your hands up, love, love, say)

[Chorus: Teyana Taylor]
Play catch with the hunnids
Love is the new money
I’m just chillin’ with the homies, home is where the heart is, ah
Play catch with the hunnids
Love is the new money
I’m just chillin’ with the homies, home is where the heart is, ah (Throw your hands up)
(Throw your hands up)

[Interlude: Ms. Lauryn Hill & Teyana Taylor]
Above all, you keep your clouding
You keep your focus
You keep your sense of love
And you keep your sense of purpose (Throw your hands up)
Those are, they’re integral, you know, they’re key (Throw your hands up)
Happiness, you know, um
A lot of people define success differently
You know, for me you can have everything
You can have all the money in the world
But if it’s not enjoyable, if it’s not sustainable
If you can’t be a person of integrity while having all of these things
What does it matter? What does it mean?
The value is internal
Your value is internal

[Outro: The Younghearts & Teyana Taylor]
We got love, love, love
You better believe it (Say, love, love)
We got love, love, love
You better believe it (Say, love, love)
