Oooohhh ahhh I can't pretend it
Don't understand this is
Something that's not
Ahhhhhhh you got me locked on your love like a drug
Oooohhh ahhh I can't pretend it
Don't understand this is
Something that's not
Ahhhhhhh you got me locked on your love like a drug
When I was growing up I knew a man who lived near me
He had a family but Was hooked on cocaine you could see it clearly
Drinking alcohol and using daily paying the dealer but forgetting his babies
Man this ish was crazy fighting all the time with his lady
Not providing a roof or food or guiding his fruit that he planted and grew
His kids hated their father for the things that he did
For what he put them thru and lived as a kid you could never forget
Memories tattooed to your brain seeing their mother drowning in pain
Father destroying him self slowly Feeling a shame
How could this be the person who brought me into this world
Who let down his little boys and girls
He said we were his diamonds and pearls
But he left one day and never returned
With no type of concern
Sometimes I wonder if that drug is what he preferred
it gots me feeling empty inside of my self
I can't blame me if my father was the one who need the help
Oooohhh ahhh I can't pretend it
Don't understand this is
Something that's not
Ahhhhhhh you got me locked on your love like a drug
Oooohhh ahhh I can't pretend it
Don't understand this is
Something that's not
Ahhhhhhh you got me locked on your love like a drug
I knew a young girl addicted to drugs for them she would do all kinds of stuff
And these things are not things you would be proud of
Flash her some bars or ecstasy what she would do for them is next to see
Disrespecting herself not seeing with clarity
No one could correct her For her errors
She was constantly bringing her family terrors
She wasn't embarrassed
She was out in the street every night then she got pregnant
Didn't have a clue who was the father that's when life hit her and it got darker
Didn't want to ask for help still prostituting herself for her and her baby
Doing things that wasn't healthy making easy money for her was always tempting
Doing the only thing she knew how to do to survive
She never gave a chance on her own life
Cause this is all she seen as a child
This was the same man's daughter on the first verse I wrote about
See the cycle repeats itself if it's not broken from the start
Oooohhh ahhh I can't pretend it
Don't understand this is
Something that's not
Ahhhhhhh you got me locked on your love like a drug
Oooohhh ahhh I can't pretend it
Don't understand this is
Something that's not
Ahhhhhhh you got me locked on your love like a drug
I can't define it
I just know the feeling you evoke
I can't deny it
The father became a victim to the streets
The daughter died from a O.D
The child she gave birth to got lost in the system at 14
Grew up with no guidance And later ended up in TDC
Is this all we know? We must change our ways if not the cycle repeats
So I'm delivering reality upon ghetto stories
Hoping you make wiser choices and see With clarity
Oooohhh ahhh I can't pretend it
Don't understand this is
Something that's not
Ahhhhhhh you got me locked on your love like a drug
Oooohhh ahhh I can't pretend it
Don't understand this is
Something that's not
Ahhhhhhh you got me locked on your love like a drug
Don't understand this is
Something that's not
