| | Album: | In My Lifetime Vol. 1 | | Track: | You Must Love Me | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 192 | | | | Lyrics: | Kelly Price (Jay Z)
Talking: Throughout my life (uh huh uh huh uh)
no matter what
I've done.(Right)
You've been merciful and your love endureth (yeah)
through all
things (ye yeah) For that
I am eternally grateful.
Verse 1
Since my
date of birth
bought you nothing but hurt
play those video games
stole
change from ya purse
Sat on the cold court bench
'til I was arraigned in ya skirt
Saw the pain in ya face
through you maintained a smirk
All you did was
motivate me
don't let 'em hold you back
What I do I turned around
and I sold
you crack
I was a bastard for that
still I'm drowning in shame
Just remember
one thing now
you're not to blame
You was newly seperated
tryin' to escape
ya world
and through my thirst
I didn't help you
I just made things worse
I hated me and everybody
that created crack
Had me thinkin'
the
newest kicks and the latest gat
Still haven't apologized
so please play this back
while I try to come to terms
with such a heinous act
you know in more than
one way
cocaine numbs the brain
All I did was think about
how the funds once
came
then I ran across this memory
and it stung the brain
How can you ever
destroy the beauty
from which one came
That's a savage you're the reason
why
me and these beats make a marriage
why I rhyme above average and
I ain't shit
Glad you got yourself together
no thanks to me
Strong and beautiful the way
thangs should be
You must love me
Chorus (K. Price) (You must love me
repeats in background)
Say that you love me
All I know say that you must love me.
Ohh yeah
Verse 2
We used to fight every night
but I never
would suffer
just smile my big brother's
tryna make me tougher
As we grew
fussing and fighting continued
as I plundered through ya stuff
and snuck ya clothes
to school
Got intense real intense
as we got older
Never believed it would
lead
to be popped in one of ya shoulda
With my rings knew you had it
'cause
you took too long
as Mickey, Andy, and the girl that bought it looked on
Huffin' and
puffin' gun in my hand
told you step outside
Hoping you said no but you hurt my
pride
made our way down the steps
maybe you thought it was just a threat
or
maybe ya life was just that crazy
and you was beggin' for death
try to justify this
in my young mind
but ya drillin' it
and my ego hurt combined
drove me
berzerk
Saw the devil in your eyes
high off more than weed
confused I just
closed
my young eyes and squeezed
What a sound
opened my eyes just
in time
to see ya stumbling to the ground
Damn what the fuck I done now
runnin' around in a circle
thinking I'm assed out
hot gun burnin' my waist
ran straight to Jazz' house
Like a stranger damn I just shot my nigga
and ran off
into the night as if it was not my nigga
Left the scene how could I go out that way
Still you asked to see me in the hospital ya next day
You must love me.
Chorus (You must love me repeats in background)
What after all the wrong I've done
I
know you must
Verse 3 (Starts over last line of chorus)
Everything in my
power and within my frame
to protect you from this life and
keep you away from the
game
But you was one of the few people
that I can trust
and the fact of the
matter I slang
these pies for us
You put the pressure on me dearly
rarely
would you let it go
Was a thousand and one times
I had to tell you no
When
it was one of those days
when nobody was around
and I needed emergency trip
out of town
Searched my mental rolodex
for all the numbers I know
As you
stared in my face
asking me could you go
I'm agreed said sender
everything'll go smooth
just tell her what to do
and everything'll go through
Strapped her body with them thangs
as you boarded the plane
Couldn't explain
these strange feelings
that I caught and the pain
I'm thinkin' why would I send you
when I knew it ain't right
I'm thinkin' what would
make you sacrifice ya life
You must love me
Chorus (You must love me repeats in background)
After everything that I've done wrong
I know inside you must love me
I know that you
love me
You showed me I know it
I know
Say that you love me
say that
you love me
I know you must love me
Oh yes you do
Inside I know it
you've always shown it
you love me yea yeah
Oh yeah
I know that you love me | | | |
