Ya know that's why man i be telling you all the time man, you know love, |
|
That word love is a very serious thing, and if you don't watch out i tell ya |
|
That (love's gonna get you) because a lot of people out here say "i love my |
|
Car" or "i love my chain" or or "i'm i'm just in love with that girl over |
|
There" so far all the people out there that fall in love with material items |
|
We gonna bump the beat a lil' something like this |
|
Im in junior high with a b plus grade, |
|
At the end of the day i don't hit the arcade, |
|
I walk from school to my moms apartment, |
|
I got to tell the sucaks everyday "don't start it", |
|
Cause where i'm at if your soft your lost, |
|
To say on course means to roll with force, |
|
A boy named rob is chillin in a benz, |
|
In front of my building with the rest of his friends, |
|
I give him a pound, oh i mean i shake his hand, |
|
He's the neighborhood drug dealer, my man, |
|
I go upstair and hug my mother, |
|
Kiss my sister, and punch my brother, |
|
I sit down on my bed to watch some tv, |
|
(machine gun fire) do my ears decieve me, |
|
Nope, thats the fourth time this week, |
|
Another fast brother shot dead in the street, |
|
The very next day while im off to class, |
|
My moms goes to work cold busting her ass, |
|
My sisters cute but she got no gear, |
|
I got three pairs of pants and with my brother i share, |
|
See there in school see i'm made a fool, |
|
With one and a half pair of pant you aint cool, |
|
But there's no dollars for nothing else, |
|
I got beans, rice, and bread on my shelf, |
|
Every day i see my mother struggling, |
|
Now its time i've got to do something, |
|
I look for work i get dissed like a jerk, |
|
I do odd jobs and come home like a slob, |
|
So here comes rob hes cold and shivery, |
|
He gives me two hundred for a quick delivery, |
|
I do it once, i do it twice, |
|
Now theres steak with the beans and rice, |
|
My mother's nervous but she knows the deal, |
|
My sister's gear now has sex appeal, |
|
My brothers my partner and we're getting paper, |
|
Three months later we run our own caper, |
|
My family's happy everything is new, |
|
Now tell me what the **** am i supposed to do, |
|
Chorus |
|
Thats why, (loves gonna get you) |
|
(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you) |
|
You fall in love with your chain, |
|
You fall in love with your car, |
|
Loves gonna sneak right up and snuff you from behind, |
|
So i want you to check the story out as we go down the line, |
|
(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you) |
|
Money's flowing, everything is fine, |
|
Got myself an uzi and my brother a nine, |
|
Buisness is boomin' everything is cool, |
|
I pull about a g a week **** school, |
|
A year goes by and i begin to grow, |
|
Not in height but juice and cash flow, |
|
I pick up my feet and begin to watch tv, |
|
Cause now i got other people working for me, |
|
I got a 55 inch television you know, |
|
And every once in awhile i hear just say no, |
|
Or the other commercial i love, |
|
Is when they say, this is your brain on drugs, |
|
I pick up my remote control and just turn, |
|
Cause with that bullshit im not concerned, |
|
See me and my brother jump in the bm, |
|
Driving around our territory again, |
|
I stop at the light like a superstar, |
|
And automatic weapons cold sprayed my car, |
|
I hit the accelerater scared as ****, |
|
And drove one block to find my brother was hit, |
|
He wasn't dead but the blood was pouring, |
|
And all i could think about was war and, |
|
Later i found that it was rob and his crew, |
|
Now tell me what the **** am i supposed to do, |
|
Ya know thats why, (loves gonna get you) |
|
(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you)(love loves gonna get you) |
|
(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you) |
|
(love loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you) |
|
That word love is very very serious(loves gonna get you) |
|
Very addictive |
|
My brothers out of it, but i'm still in it, |
|
On top of that im in it to win it, |
|
I can't believe that rob would diss me, |
|
That faggot, that punk, he's soft a sissy, |
|
I'm driving around now with three of my guys, |
|
The war is on and i'm on the rise, |
|
We rolled right up to his favorite hang out, |
|
Said hello and then the bullets rang out, |
|
Some fired back so we took cover, |
|
And all i could think about was my brother, |
|
Rob jumped up and began to run, |
|
Busting shots hoping to hit someone, |
|
So i just stopped, and let off three shots, |
|
Two hit him and one hit a cop, |
|
I threw the gun down and began to shout, |
|
Come on i got him it's time to break out, |
|
But as we ran there were the boys in blue, |
|
Pointing their guns at my four man crew, |
|
They shot down one, they shot down two, |
|
Now tell me what the **** am i supposed to do, |
|
(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you) |
|
(love loves gonna get you) |
|
(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you) |
|
(love loves gonna get you) |
|
(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you), |
|
(loves gonna get you) |
|
(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you)(loves gonna get you) |
|
(love loves gonna get you) |
|
Ya know a lot of people believe that that word love is real soft, but when |
|
You use it in your vocabulary like your addicted to it it sneaks right up |
|
And takes you right out. out. out. out. out. |
|
So, for future reference remember it's alright to like or want a material |
|
Item, but when you fall in love with it and you start scheming and carrying |
|
On for it, just remember, it's gonna get'cha |
