I need you
You my confidant when I couldn't tell pops that report card came
Put the dean in my yard, like religion and king
I need you
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
I need you
Ain't gang related but you relative to blood
I understand now, all he try to give for me
Like unidentified rims spinning in the night
I need you
In my hand spillin' my heart with you blood
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
Hooked up in 82' plus six when you gave me my fix
Broads love you on Valentines day
But you pack ink, can make tattoos turn pussy
I need you
Because it's about you
A nigga got trust 'cuz she been day one
I wanna give it to you the same way
There you go smudgin', see actin' mad funny
Me without your balance just wouldn't sit right
You signed off with me
And you are one of the most important things in this world, you
Due to me being down with you
The world cheered from you
Could you be my sugar water, tonic and cream?
She ride 'cuz her testament has been day one
Slid in this world at one pound eight ounce
And always shining in my heart and that's way beyond words
So we K I S the BS goodbye
They one's done, build a fam Bruce Lee
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
I need you
People spot me like nerves spot pain
You fixed my house and banking accounts
Before that this darkie had to smile for them to see me
But sometimes fall short and you still live for me
AB negative you represent love
I need you
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
I need you
Through you, me and your grandfather grew closer
Even when the itchy burn make me wanna let go
You put the S on my chest and inside my veins
But you kissin' loose leafs so I can't be mad
Though you break like Pringles, you're heroic in your size
But you're my little black diamond
My miracle baby grown in to a little lady
But when I'm dead and gone will you sign off?
You fixed me up with too many women to count
Quaker brought beats to my chest before hip hop
Tarzan and Jane more like Bonnie and Karem
Oh, Paper mate you light like paper weight
At least when you was here for me
I need you
So fast, like pressing the gas while the tape bounce
So when the checks come you'll be signin' off with me
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
Just take some time to remember
Damsel in distress so I stress good guy
Only right for you to have your side niggas too
I just want you to know
Pen you my muthafucka, I'm a hold you like piss
I need you
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
And even when you don't come back
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
You make David beat Goliath, you heart beaker
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
And diamond you a sight
And when it's mush time you be there like a man
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
I need you
You're my first born, my little Capricorn kid
Like written wouldn't be past tense without ten
I may not show all the right feelings or say the right words
You've been with me on the inside homie
If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for you
Hey, because of you my little lady named fame
Puff life in me ever since I was a knee high, I knew I had heart
Now them same kids that used to diss wanna be me
