Track byNaughty By Nature
We're in the time where many doors are too hard to enter in And many people really ain't worth the mentionin Thugs, me hugs, and plus a little gentle friend Or the mentals if I wile I get antetion then Do my drama from court to case While others turn they back I turn my hate to faith Thats why I'm here, but boo's, any place or date If theres tear in my eyes you come to dry my face Now thats deep, y'all turned from my fans to my friends After the past, I didnt think I could stand it again On the streets, me and Miny wonderin shall I kill I do for all, when will someone ask me how I feel? Ladies, if youre down and my pics on youre wall Just pop in this song and wont let you fall To all my ladies, got ya letters and I love you to death Now I appreciate the breath that the dear lord left (Naughty by Nature) (Coffee Brown) Why do I stand for my fam and put it down for my peeps? (Ooooooooohhhhhhhhh, I like it) 'Cause they woulda done the same for me Why do I see my women fallin down and put 'em back on they feet? 'Cause they woulda done the same for me Why do I put it down for the streets and my R.I.P's? (Ooooooooohhhhhhhhh, and I like it) 'Cause they woulda done the same for me Why do I embrace the face that sets the mob free? 'Cause they woulda done the same for me With the kindness of people and most dont even know 'Cause this wilderness was'nt designed to see us grow My thugs through the years who've always been true Just know that I take the bullet for you Life ain't livin without givin, worth fryin for lyin Ain't jack for free, but I'm supplyin if you're tryin Have friends before the Benz, respect before a Lexus Mama's(Mama's) gave us life, but brotha's have to protect us(Protect us) Some wonder why I still got love Why I still live in the hood, and why I still share grub Why I play with the kids, lose money on clubs To keep my people off the streets and away from the slugs Sometimes rats run traps while our sista's get named Sometimes bitches do thangs, and our queens get blamed But I'm puttin things on blast for my women and G's 'Cause you woulda done the same for me (Naughty by Nature) (Coffee Brown) Why do I stand for my fam and put it down for my peeps? (Ooooooooohhhhhhhhh, I like it) 'Cause they woulda done the same for me Why do I see my women fallin down and put 'em back on they feet?

(Ooooooooohhhhhhhhh, and I like it) 'Cause they woulda done the same for me Why do I embrace the face that sets the mob free? 'Cause they woulda done the same for me Where's my ladies who support and understand when Yeah I'm tired but I still gotta visit the pen I appreciate you love the love I show them Woulda want the same thing if I had to go in Lost the love of my life over stress and strife If I couldn't care for me, I couldn't care for a wife So I looked at the Lord and what he said was right "Theres obstacles but everything is gonna be alright" If you feelin what I'm feelin, lay back and give me love So when you see me on the streets or clubs give me hug To understand unity, you gotta understand we You and I, you and them, them and me, see Y'all did for me, now I'll bow for the royalty Just to know y'all is the love the loyalty Behind every strong man theres a strong lady with 'em Behind me I seem to have a whole nation of women (Naughty by Nature) (Coffee Brown) Why do I shout out all my women and adore my queens?
