ft. Mary J. BligePoppa Wu
[Intro One: (some movie)]
What dey gives you blood?
Three months man
Whatchu doin in here anyway? You oughta be home with your momma
How old are you boy?
Thirteen
Thirteen? Damnthe bastards must be runnin outta niggaz to arrest
[Intro: Ghostface]
Yeahohh yeahthis goes out
to all the families that went through the struggle
Yeahfrom the heart
It was from the hearteverything was real
[Mary J.]
All that I got is you
And I'm so thankful I made it through
[Verse One:]
Yodwellin in the pastflashbacks when I was young
Whoever thought that I'd have a baby girl and three sons
I'm goin through this difficult stage I find it hard to believe
Why my old Earth had so many seeds
But she's an old womanand due to me I respect that
I saw life for what it's really worth and took a step back
Family ain't family no morewe used to play ball
Eggs after schooleat grits cause we was poor
Grab the pliers for the channelfix the hanger on the TV
Rockin each others pants to school wasn't easy
We survived winterssnotty nosed with no coats
We kept it realbut the older brother still had jokes
Sadlydaddy left me at the age of six
I didn't know nuttin but mommy neatly packed his shit
She criedand grandma held the family down
I guess mommy wasn't strong enoughshe just went down
Check itfifteen of us in a three bedroom apartment
Roaches everywherecousins and aunts was there
Four in the bedtwo at the foottwo at the head
I didn't like to sleep with Jon-Jon he peed the bed
Seven o'clockpluckin roaches out the cereal box
Some shared the same spoonwatchin saturday cartoons
Sugar water was our thingevery meal was no thrill
In the summerfree lunch held us down like steel
And there was days I had to go to Tex house with a note
Stating "Gloria can I borrow some food I'm dead broke"
So embarrasin I couldn't stand to knock on they door
My friends might be laughinI spent stamps in stores
Mommy where's the toilet paperuse the newspaper
Look Ms. Rose gave us a couchshe's the neighbor
Things was deepmy whole youth was sharper than cleats
Two brothers with muscular dystrophyit killed me
But I remember thismom's would lick her finger tips
To wipe the cold out my eye before school wit her spit
Case worker had her runnin back to face to face
I caught a casehousin tried to throw us out of our place
Sometimes I look up at the stars and analyze the sky
And ask myself was I meant to be here... why?
Yeahyo
[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]
All that I got is you
And I'm so thankful I made it through
[repeat 4X]
Word up mommyI love you
Word up
It was all youwordyou brought me in like this
[Verse Two: Mary J. BligePoppa Wu]
I sit and think about
All the times we did withoutyeah
I always said I woudn't cry
When I saw tears in your eyes
I understand that daddy's not here now
But some way or somehowI will always be aroundyeah
All things that I did from this to them
Oh from drugs to being there
Being down and out and I love you always
Yeahyou say
You see the universewhich consists of the sun moon and star
And them planetsthat exist in my space
Like man woman and child
You understand?
We got to keep it realand what reality and reality will keep it real with us
I remember them good ol days
Because seethat's the child I was
What made me the man I am today
See cause if you forget where you come fromheheh
You're never gonna make it where you're goinaheh
Because you lost the reality of yourself
So take one stroll through your mind
And see what you will find
And you'll see a whole universe all over again
and again and again and again and again
Hehehehyeah heheheheh ahaheheheh
