Why I Love You |
| Ooooh, I love you so |
| But why I love you, I'll never know |
| (Ooooh, I love you so |
| But why I love you, I'll never know) |
| Ooooh, I love you so |
| But why I love you, I'll never know |
| (Ooooh, I love you so |
| But why I love you, I'll never know) |
| Picture, if you will, that the throne's burning |
| Rome's burning, and I’m sitting in the corner all alone, burning |
| Why does it always end up like this? |
| Something that we don’t determine |
| Same people that I fought for, that I fight for, that I ride for |
| That I live for, that I die for |
| Be the reason that these niggas is alive for |
| And they want me dead, but I’m sorry, but I just can’t die for you |
| But I can make 'em put their hands in the sky for you |
| We waiting for the fireworks like July 4th |
| Get fly more, get high more, cry boy, why for? |
| When the grief is over, beef is over |
| I’ll be fly when Easter’s over |
| I tried to teach niggas how to be kings |
| And all they ever wanted to be was soldiers |
| So when love is gone 'til blood is drawn |
| 'Cause we no longer wear the same uniform |
| Fuck you, squares, the circle got smaller |
| The castle got bigger, the walls got taller |
| And truth be told, after all that said |
| Niggas still got love for you |
| Ooooh, I love you so |
| But why I love you, I'll never know |
| (Ooooh, I love you so |
| But why I love you, I'll never know) |
| Ooooh, I love you so |
| But why I love you, I'll never know |
| (Ooooh, I love you so |
| But why I love you, I'll never know) |
| Showed love to you niggas |
| You ripped out my heart and you stepped on it |
| I picked up the pieces 'fore you swept on it |
| Goddamn, this shit leaves a mess, don’t it? |
| Shit feelin’ like death, don’t it? |
| Charge it to the game, whatever’s left on it |
| I spent about a minute, maybe less on it |
| Fly, pelican, fly, turn the jets on it |
| But first I shall digress on it |
| Wasn’t I a good king? |
| Maybe too much of a good thing, huh? |
| Didn’t I spoil you? Me or the money, what you loyal to? |
| Huh, I gave you my loyalty |
| Made you royalty and royalties |
| Took care of these niggas' lawyer fees |
| And this is how niggas rewarded me, damn |
| Ooooh, I love you so |
| But why I love you, I'll never know |
| (Ooooh, I love you so |
| But why I love you, I'll never know) |
| Bussin’ at me, b-b-b-bussin’ at me |
| But I’m bulletproof, bitch, you can’t get nothin’ past me |
| Got body armor |
| A nigga gotta watch the throne |
| And I’m bussin’ back |
| So niggas in a glass house should not throw stones |
| What do you do when the love turns to hate? |
| Gotta separate from these fuckin' fakes |
| Caesar didn’t see it so he ceased to exist |
| So the nigga that killed him had keys to his shit |
| Am I my brother’s keeper? |
| Only if that nigga don’t creep up |
| Got a pistol under my pillow |
| I’ve never been a deep sleeper |
| P-p-p-paranoia, 'cause the nigga that said he’ll |
| Blast for ya is now blastin' for ya |
| That’s an assassin for ya |
| These niggas got a shot, they’ll shoot |
| Please Lord, forgive him |
| For these niggas not know what they do, ooh |
