What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Throughout my life
2
No matter what I've done
3
You've been merciful and your love endureth
4
Through all things for that
5
I am eternally grateful
6
Since my date of birth bought you nothing but hurt
7
Play those video games, stole change from ya purse
8
Sat on the cold court bench till I was arraigned in ya skirt
9
Saw the pain in ya face through you maintained a smirk
10
All you did was motivate me, don't let 'em hold you back
11
What I do I turned around and I sold you crack
12
I was a bastard for that still I'm drowning in shame
13
Just remember one thing now you're not to blame
14
You was newly separated tryin' to escape ya world
15
And through my thirst I didn't help you
16
I just made things worse
17
I hated me and everybody that created crack
18
Had me thinkin' the newest kicks and the latest gat
19
Still haven't apologized so please play this back
20
While I try to come to terms with such a heinous act
21
You know in more than one way cocaine numbs the brain
22
All I did was think about how the funds once came
23
Then I ran across this memory and it stung the brain
24
How can you ever destroy the beauty from which one came?
25
That's a savage you're the reason
26
Why me and these beats make a marriage
27
Why I rhyme above average and I ain't shit
28
Glad you got yourself together, no thanks to me
29
Strong and beautiful the way thangs should be
30
You must love me
31
Say that you love me
32
All I know say that you must love me
33
Oh yeah
34
We used to fight every night but I never would suffer
35
Just smile my big brother's tryna make me tougher
36
As we grew fussing and fighting continued
37
As I plundered through ya stuff and snuck ya clothes to school
38
Got intense real intense as we got older
39
Never believed it would lead to be popped in one of ya shoulder
40
With my rings knew you had it 'cause you took too long
41
As Mickey, Andy and the girl that bought it looked on
42
Huffin' and puffin' gun in my hand, told you step outside
43
Hoping you said no but you hurt my pride
44
Made our way down the steps maybe you thought it was just a threat
45
Or maybe ya life was just that crazy and you was beggin' for death
46
Try to justify this in my young mind but ya drillin' it
47
And my ego hurt combined drove me berserk
48
Saw the devil in your eyes high off more than weed
49
Confused I just closed my young eyes and squeezed
50
What a sound! Opened my eyes just in time
51
To see ya stumbling to the ground, damn what the fuck I done now
52
Runnin' around in a circle, thinking I'm assed out
53
hot gun burnin' my waist, ran straight to Jazz house
54
Like a stranger damn I just shot my nigga
55
And ran off into the night as if it was not my nigga
56
Left the scene, how could I go out that way?
57
Still you asked to see me in the hospital ya next day
58
You must love me
59
Chorus
60
Yeah after all the wrong I've done
61
I know you must
62
Everything in my power and within my frame
63
To protect you from this life and keep you away from the game
64
But you was one of the few people that I can trust
65
And the fact of the matter I slang these pies for us
66
You put the pressure on me dearly, rarely would you let it go
67
Was a thousand and one times I had to tell you no
68
When it was one of those days when nobody was around
69
And I needed emergency trip out of town
70
Searched my mental Rolodex for all the numbers I know
71
As you stared in my face asking me could you go
72
I'm agreed said sender everything'll go smooth
73
Just tell her what to do and everything'll go through
74
Strapped her body with them thangs as you boarded the plane
75
Couldn't explain these strange feelings that I caught and the pain
76
I'm thinkin' why would I send you when I knew it ain't right?
77
I'm thinkin' what would make you sacrifice ya life?
78
You must love me
79
Chorus
80
After everything that I've done wrong
81
I know inside you must love me, yeah
82
Oh you must love me
83
I know that you love me, yeah, yeah
84
Oh, you showed me I know it, I know
85
Say that you love me
86
Say that you love me
87
I know you must love me
88
You must love
89
Oh yes you do
90
Inside I know it
91
You've always shown it
92
You love me, yea yeah
93
Oh yeah, I know that you love me
94
Oh
