letra de all i've got is you - rhymefest
[rhymefest]
somebody up and said “‘fest if i was you, i’d be more bitter”
i looked and said, “if i thought like you, i’d be more n-gga”
more hater, more angry black man on an elevator
more cryin, less paper, that’s when they come and take ya
put you under the radar, push your record to later
say “it could’ve been greater”, now you a f-ckin waiter, wait up!
this is hustle time, revolution muscle mind
over matter but matter of fact, who can f-ck with mine?
i was spitting these bars before i had a dime
phoney broads sayin they love me, deals that were signed
comin home, shorties getting k!lled all the time
on the block over a crumb of a crumb, in their prime
i’m, prime time, life, crime
s-x, drugs, the lord of war, slugs, nines
diamond mines, blood lines
n-ggas say they got no love but we love dimes
[ghostface k!llah]
dwellin in the past, flashbacks when i was young
whoever thought i’d have a baby girl and three sons?
i’m going through this difficult stage, i find it hard to believe
why my old earth had so many seeds
but she’s an old woman, and 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 more, we used to play ball
eggs after school, eat grits cause we was poor
grab the pliers for the channel, fix the hanger on the tv
rockin each other’s pants to school wasn’t easy
we survived winters, snotty nose with no coats
we kept it real but the older brothers still had jokes
sadly, daddy left me at the age of six
i didn’t know nothin but mommy neatly packed his sh-t
she cried, and grandma held the family down
i guess mommy wasn’t strong enough, she just went down
check it, fifteen of us in a three-bedroom apartment
roaches everywhere, cousins and aunts was there
four on the bed, two at the foot, two at the head
i didn’t like to sleep with jon-jon, he peed the bed
seven o’clock, pluckin roaches out the cereal box
we shared the same spoon watchin sat-rday cartoons
sugar water was our thing, every meal was no thrill
in the summer, free lunch held us down like steel
and there were days i had to go to tex house with a note
stating “gloria can i borrow some food? i’m dead broke”
so embarr-ssin, i couldn’t stand to knock on they door
my friends might be laughin, i spent stamps at stores
mommy, where’s the toilet paper? usually newspaper
look, ms. rose gave us a couch she’s the neighbor
things was deep, my whole youth was sharper than cleats
two brothers with muscular dystrophy, it k!lled me
but i remember this, moms would l1ck her finger tips
to wipe the coal out my eye before school wit her spit
case worker had her runnin back to face the face
i caught a case, housin tried to throw us out of our place
sometimes i look up at the stars and -n-lyse the sky
and ask myself was i meant to be here?… why?
[rhymefest]
huh, i hear ya ghost, it’s hard growin up black
but look to god and say…
