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

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?
(Ooooooooohhhhhhhhh, I like it)
'Cause they woulda done the same
for me
Why do I destroy anything that
stops my teams dreams?
'Cause they woulda done the same
for me
Why do I see my people is and tell
'em what I see to be?
(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
