2. Nosy Boy ft. Deneil
Length: 4:24
Genre: Contemporary R&B
Written by: Nina "Rum/FancyN" Tarantino, Deneil Khan, Zulika Williams
Produced by: FancyN
Nosy Boy is the second track on Boyz Will Be Boys, featuring a guest vocal from the London rapper Deneil Khan. The song is written by Nina "Rum/FancyN" Tarantino, Zulika Williams and Deneil Khan, Zuli taking the lead for once and singing in patios. Songs like this were important for the group, a chance for Zuli to get more lines on the album as her patios is hard to write into every song, leading her to get far less airtime in the group. The lyrics themselves are about wanting to know everything about someone you love, one of those curiosities being if they love you back. She falls for with a man from London, something Zuli claims she has done over and over again, London being a second home for her and Deneil plays as the man she falls in love with, giving an amazing verse that many consider to be the best part of the song. Even still, Zuli brings another solid Contemporary R&B song to LUXX's debut, a wobbly beat with pacing percussion created by FancyN that softly follows both of the recording artists' voices, creating a huge contrast as both Zuli and Deneil share a huskier tone.

So when mi say love what you say back?
Mi know mi fi know but mi gotta ask
Everybody seen the stories go real bad
Love come and go, cut you off, leave you real sad, real sad
None ah that!
Now that Zuli and her girls guh fi blow up
Everybody looking fah ah come up
Mama say, “if you mash ants you find em guts
Don’t gi dem what dey want, just line dem up”
But it should nah be so hard to learn fi you motive
I'm free for the night, what's the motive?
At first love went unnoticed
You got that magic, someting laka potion
Slow motion, yeah, I’m pon a grind (on my grind)
Nyum good, work hard, I just want to live right (live right)
Money pon dis rolex, don’t waste my time
Or get back inna de line, backa de line
Boy, you got fi mi heart, don’t bruk it (Don't break it, break it)
Charge fi mi life, mi took it (That's taken, taken)
Wa fi spend de night, let’s book it (A cheap vacation)
Get me an intimate space and ask wey
So when mi say love what you say back?
'Ow you feel, really feel? Mi just gotta ask
Never gave fi mi all but mi cyan do dat
Love come and go, we cyan stop dat, stop dat
Mmmm
London boys, them a problem
You sound ah bit like me, let's talk some
They only know what mi say when mi get mad
But you speak de language, mi like that
I'm nuh cyar about de motive
I'm a free up my nights, what's the motive?
Just nuh wa fi end up broken
You’ll catch some black magic, no shit
Slow motion, a constant grind (on my grind)
Nyum good, work hard, I just hope I'm living right (living right)
Don’t waste my time
Or get back inna de line, back ah de line
Boy, you got fi mi heart, don’t bruk it (Don't break it, break it)
Charge fi mi life, mi took it (That's taken, taken)
Wa fi spend de night, let’s book it (A cheap vacation)
Get me an intimate space and ask wey
You say you speak my language but we both know it's better in tongues
Why skip to the beat drop when you got this killa rhythm goin' on?
Straight fucking ain't as fun as pulling those strings along
Sheer goddess in my presence so excuse a man for wanting to prolong
I got that secret potion, everlasting effects are guaranteed
The Simpsons type of soothsayer, predicting that future for you and me
Wanna get a little closer, show ya how we do way over in the East
Getting cocky with the playing, ya boy has more front than Brighton Pier
Think that Neily's complex? Gyal, I'm not the only riddle here
What about you? I know your name but I ain't ever heard the story
Tap on the mic, don't let them steal your shine, share your glory
Unleash that fire, don't care if you kill 'em all, gory
Shake my little world with all the things you've never told me
Do you dream of wild nights in LDN? Who do ya think of when ya lonely?
If you got demons and skeletons, fam it's not as if I'm even Holy
I'll tame all your big bad wolves, they'll learn to love me like Mowgli
You're a breath of fresh air in the times that we are living in
Such a strong, proud woman and there is just no stopping it
Arrived without a four min' warning and been straight up killing it
Seems we fit in place like Tetris, both always on that winning shit
Only been around for a hot second and already the most relevant
We destroy all those barriers, we revelling in our melanin
Missing words in our rhymes, still have a higher IQ than Mr President
We murdering them all, can hear the tears and the violin
Every boy is wishing it could be them and you
I know I've messed around but I ain't gon' be making room
Clever with my words but there is three that I just can't do
If I say it out loud...would you say that you do too?
Boy, you got fi mi heart, don’t bruk it (Don't break it, break it)
Charge fi mi life, mi took it (That's taken, taken)
Wa fi spend de night, let’s book it (A cheap vacation)
Get me an intimate space and ask wey
