Enough to make a grown man cry
All ya life
All you wanted to be
Was somebody
With a college degree
Swore up and down that you ain't need me
I used to tell you all the time that it ain't easy
And --- Puppy love was all we had in the past
Now you a lady and you full of pizzazz
Tell me that I'm crazy
And that life won't last
And you might have been right
I'm still chasin' yo ***
I chose a life of bright lights in the fast lane
Outta the gutta all I wanted was to have thangs
And I can have you
And you can have me
Maybe a baby or two
Raise a family
But -- you had other plans for life that better suited you
Found you a man that you love and that's beautiful
And it hurt me to death
No I can't lie
But I'm a grown man
Still I wanna cry
NAPOLEON
Baby girl I appreciate how you rode
You stay down when my pockets start to reach low
And when they started to grow
You wasn't trippin on no dough -- you know
You even told me how to make love with the lights off
I did you right -- It's so wrong
We went through hell together but you still stay strong
When my grandma died I put my head on yo shoulder
When I cry -- you reply let it out you's a soldier
And yo pops a punk
He took the first bus and jetted
Left a pretty precious girl behind
He gon' regret it
I ain't yo mami -- yo papi
But I'll do you just like daddy
Just ride or die wit me and I promise you stay happy
We spent bills together
Neva done pills together
But we both got drunk of Tequil' together
I made a promise to you
That Imma slow down on the road
And stop gettin' drunk everyday -- actin a fool
And now we havin a baby
Oh it's gon' be a lil Mu
Lil man, lil G
He 'bout to ride to work wit me
Hit me hard
You think that I ain't speakin' the wise
But it's enough to make a grown man cry
CHORUS
Let me make a deal wit you
Be real wit you
Look at me in my eye
If you wanted me to die I would try
(it's enough to make a grown man cry)
I been waitin for you all my life
You all I like
Picture what it would be
(what it would be)
You would be here next to me
I swear that's all that I would need...
(it's enough to make a grown man cry)
E.D.I
Black pearl grew up in this hellish world
Full of confidence and ***
It ain't *** you could tell this girl
All about her chips -- hustle harder than ***
Bubble hearted wit figgas -- get the trouble started quick
Ever since she was a young'n she was always into somethin'
And when she got over
Drama was always on her shoulder
I guess being that alive
She had a lot of resemblance
God brought us both together to be eachother's protection
And I ain't mad at him
As matter fact daily I get at him
And thank him for sendin' you to me lady
Truly a gift from up above
You and me nobody stoppin us
So when we together
They all watchin us
And I feel no pity for them suckas that didn't want ya
Cause nowadays even some women want ya
Fine as you wanna be
And you belong to me
My everything
For eternity
Now sing with me now
CHORUS
Let me make a deal wit you
Be real wit you
Look at me in my eye
If you wanted me to die I would try
(it's enough to make a grown man cry)
I been waitin for you all my life
You all I like
Picture what it would be
(what it would be)
You would be here next to me
I swear that's all that I would need...
(it's enough to make a grown man cry)
YOUNG NOBLE
It's just another day
Another day around the way
Pay attention -- to this story 'bout this girl named May
She been livin' on my block for like 2 years now
Here's how it went down
She was a good girl
Raised in the Decatur
She never even been to the city
It was easy to persuade her
I used to see her walkin to the store but she never spoke
So sometimes all the homies had jokes
But she was shy
Only for a minute
Got introduced to the drugs
Baby girl start trippin
Baby girl started strippin
She all turned out
Trust me
Jerzey real different than down south
Now all the homies on the block in and out of her house
They all found out she get down -- no doubt
She was a black angel
Now she all messed up
Show her a little *** and she give the sex up
Through the *** and the blunts
Another little problem
Some of them brothas wasn't usin' condoms
May wanna play
She gonna deal wit AIDS
But meanwhile -- May gotta baby on the way
And she don't even know who the father is
Her best friend ***
She don't want no kids
So she smoke -- and smoke
And got what she wanted
A beautiful black baby boy died in her stomach all for nothin'
CHORUS (2x)
Let me make a deal wit you
Be real wit you
Look at me in my eye
If you wanted me to die I would try
(it's enough to make a grown man cry)
I been waitin for you all my life
You all I like
Picture what it would be
(what it would be)
You would be here next to me
I swear that's all that I would need...
(it's enough to make a grown man cry)
