    The melody in this song, the harmony in the back ground with Mary mingled in, it's so lyrical and on point.

    Love is a balance there are always going to be moments where things are beautiful but with all the good that happens theres always going too be something bad that happens as well. The balance is an infinite knowledge Loop because from it all we still learn things that we would not have otherwise

    This literally what you call a PERFECT song. I get the same FEELING every single time I listen to it. It touches the SOUL! And EVERYone on the song delivered from the Neptunes production, Common flow and cadence and Mary J Blige beautifully laid vocals.
