B2B

Story Behind The Song

This is an interpretative song based on a man (Kayode, the performer) who is actually looking to find a wife in a world that exploits sex and short term "hookups" and one night stands. This is one expression of this sentiment and it occurs after another song on the LP "Are We Ready?!" that displays a break up that just occurred between Kayode and an unnamed woman in "The 27th Week". In that song, the woman kept lying to Kayode. He wants his next woman to be THE woman, thus B2B is where he starts this search, since he just dumped the other woman outside of a bar and got her an Uber to take her home alone.

Song Description

B2B stands for 2 separate terms that explain the progression of the song that is about a man working to court a woman he sees in a bar: Bar to Booth and Booth to Bed. It's about a nice guy that has to "push past all the pimps" to get to a woman that catches his eye. He is looking for a long term relationship that has progression to higher levels: from the bar to the booth to get into in-depth conversation and from the booth to the bed for more intimate interactions. The song implies going from the bed to the bride as well, though the song ends prior to that result.

Lyrics

I can do this now
I can do this now
I can do this now
Baby, you're the one I want
No need to waste our time
You may be the one I need
Let me explore your mind
Yeah, you're feeling like the truth
Don't want the sensation to end
So let's go from bar to booth
Where the real fun can begin

Yeah, bae I saw you sitting up in your seat
Back arched like your fine never ends
Your body swaying to the beat
Swirling drink with your straw's end
Mesmerized by your silhouette
I had to catch more than a glimpse
My appetite i had to whet
So I pushed past all the pimps
So I pushed past all the pimps
So I pushed past all the pimps
So I pushed past all the pimps
I had to catch more than a glimpse
So I pushed past all the pimps

Baby, you're the one I want
No need to waste our time
You may be the one I need
Let me explore your mind
Yeah, you're feeling like the truth
Don't want the sensation to end
So let's go from bar to booth
Where the real fun can begin

Now we tucked up in the booth
For a deeper interview
20 questions like a sleuth
Chop it up as we chew
You ask me what I want to do
Hot message in your eyes I read
I say "we need to take a walk
So we can clear our head

So we can clear our head
So we can clear our head
So we can clear our head
Hot message in her eyes I read
I say we need to clear our head

Baby, you're the one I want
No need to waste our time
You may be the one I need
Let me explore your mind
Time passes as we walk
Steps ordered as we tread
We get to know each other's path
As we stepped from the booth to the bed

Bar to booth
Clear our head
We can walk from the
Booth to bed
