[CHORUS]

I been around the world

And gets nuthin but love

For who I am

I thank my fans so much

Even though some may hate

Still I appreciate

All my friends and family

That kept it real with me



[R KELLY]

I been around the world and back like what up

East side to west side tourin like what up

And even though the price for the house was so much

I still roll with them from the hood like what up

Cuz when it comes to bein the realest im sho nuff

Im a straight up industry villain fo sho nuff

And I cant satisfy some a yall no matter what

And some a yall cats are soldier love

Said we livin in a cold cold world

Aint nuttin but fake faces fake people fake friends

Said we livin in a cold cold world

Where there aint nuttin but envy wannabees playa-hatas

Yea I know I need a hug but yall need a hug too

Cuz god gunna judge me the same day he judge you

And even though we have our struggles thats alright

You know we get our folks and find a way to shine



[CHORUS]

I been around the world

And gets nuthin but love

For who I am

I thank my fans so much

Even though some may hate

Still I appreciate

All my friends and family

That kept it real with me



[JA RULE]

Sometimes this world can be so cold

When you looking through the windows of the soul

I been looking to see the truth as it unfolds

Cuz I been around this globe and back

Enough to know the fact

Who loves me

And who loves me not

We be shits so hot

You could put it in red tops

And pump it through every hood, ghetto, and block

Until they heart stops

Thats why they fiend for me

And I thank you for every blessing that you givin me lord

And im grateful for all my talent and my vocal accords

And all these hatas I keep shakin em off

Rubbin they face in fame

Im sorry I changed the game

But its mine and I cant complain

Rule and R Kelly

Been around the world

Puttin it on women

Bumpin n grindin these bitches

But we always on time when a woman fed up

And thats love

Thats why they all fuck wit us



[CHORUS]

I been around the world

And gets nuthin but love

For who I am

I thank my fans so much

Even though some may hate

Still I appreciate

All my friends and family

That kept it real with me



[R KELLY]

Said my lyrics is my testimony

Thats how I live

I had to get rid of a lotta fake homies

Over the years

You see me on tv sometimes

Not how it is

Yall gotta start learnin how to separate me from showbiz

When im rollin through your city

Who me love

And ladies when you see a boy

Give me love

And though im not conceited (right)

Its jus my space sometimes I need it (right)

Said I got so many friends in them area codes

That I hand out them tickets when it comes to my shows

Ja lets break bread together

Pray together

That we grow strong together

Its clear forever

Help each other through the stormy weather

Lets hurt together

Lets cry together

And even if we grow together

Then together we can make it better



[CHORUS]

I been around the world

And gets nuthin but love

For who I am

I thank my fans so much

Even though some may hate

Still I appreciate

All my friends and family

That kept it real with me



Said I been around the world

And gets nuthin but love

For who I am

I thank my fans so much

Even though some may hate

Still I appreciate

All my friends and family

That kept it real with me
