[Intro: Saigon] |
|
Uh, I wonder |
|
Will they ever love me? (uh-huh) |
|
Will they ever? |
|
Will they ever care? (uh-huh) |
|
When? When? (uh, uh) |
|
[Saigon] |
|
Maybe after I'm dead and gone they'll get along |
|
Then they'll look back and see things that I said in my song |
|
Hope I did enough right that it deaded my wrong |
|
If I was to die tonight, I don't know where I'm goin |
|
Heaven or Hell, I don't think the reverend could tell |
|
He see I'm addicted but what started as medicine failed |
|
and left me to deal with a chemical dependency |
|
He act like he God with his subliminal supremacy |
|
Talkin like if I don't get straight, then he could seal my fate |
|
Wait - you could seal a fate but you can't rehabilitate? |
|
So now on Sundays I be right here on my perch |
|
I sit across the street and just stare at the church and it hurt |
|
I figure maybe they'll love me in my afterlife |
|
In retrospect they might recognize what I sacrificed |
|
For now a nigga here with his head hangin |
|
Askin life and hip-hop the same dang question |
|
[Chorus: Andreena Mill] |
|
When will you love me? |
|
Today, tomorrow, right now |
|
When will you love me? |
|
Ohhh fall for me somehow! |
|
When will you love me? |
|
So pardon my curiosity |
|
When will you love me? |
|
[Saigon] |
|
When when uh, uh, uh |
|
I know a young man who's becomin a gun man |
|
Raised by a single mother who main concern was a suntan |
|
And goin on vacation whenever the invitation was presented |
|
Listen, you'll comprehend this in a minute |
|
See as a minor he had a dream of bein athletic |
|
She said she would sign him up for sports but she ass-betted |
|
So he got into books, but even that was overlooked |
|
Yet all he wanted was love from the one woman that's s'posed to put |
|
him above everything |
|
She was too busy with niggaz had fakin with wedding ring |
|
Somethin she had never dreamed 'bout to transpire |
|
The street took control of his soul, now her only son's a ghetto vampire |
|
He out late stealin and dealin front of the corner store |
|
Wasn't long before the boys up the way had wanted a war |
|
Caught him, put the gun to his jaw |
|
Then the last thing you seen before the flash was his mom |
|
His last thought |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Saigon] |
|
Uhh, uh-huh, check |
|
Sometimes all it takes is love |
|
for us to rise up above, survive just because |
|
You'll be surprised what you're deprived of |
|
When you deprive others of love, demise is a must |
|
The heart can't breathe, the soul can't carry on |
|
It's hard to succeed, the roles keep addin on |
|
If you love somebody you should show 'em while they still here |
|
Tomorrow they could be dead or askin you from a wheelchair |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Outro: Saigon] |
