Take the time and come follow me, and thru this dream



And while i'm rollin' thru these neighborhoods see babies scream

And mommas fiend, Yo, it's like they on the wrong team

How many people close they eyes to this american dream

I look my children in they eyes and I wipe their tears

Now don't you fear, 'cuz daddy's gonna be right here

And every river you gotta cross I'll be right there

And every paain you gotta feel, you know I'll always care

How many young gotta go to prison, behind the killin and dealin'

Not even carin' how these mothers feelin'

I know you on the swell, I know you lookin' well

But on the inside, just a lil kid that's locked behind a cell

And oh well, I never had a father there to lead 'em, but to leave 'em

And they greavin' and they barely breathin'

No reason to even try y'all to look for love

You got dealt such a bad hand to be a thug



Chorus

Oh, what the worl needs is love

And all the homies stuck in prison

What we need is a lil love, that's what we missin'

Oh, what the world needs is love, is love, we need a lil love



Never seen my pops, unless i seen him in me

Somebody please help me explain all this misery

I'm hangin' out with these older cats and I'm payin' my dues

Actin' a fool up in the streets, I'm packin' this gat and these tools

And thinkin' its cool to sellin dope and never goin to school

But I'm a fool, I listened to them when it should have been you

What kind of drama cause a momma turn her back on her kids







She said I said I'll be back, but she never did

I used to scream nobody love me

I fell in love with the streets when thugs they huged me

Know what I'm sayi
