Game - My Love For You - Sözleri

My love for you

is like a angel flyin' thru the sky

like a bird in the winter, and

your love for me

is so deep, and sorta like a black rose cracking the cement

My love for you

lives on like the memory of Aaliyah singin' a last song

and your love for me

will never die like a black child struggling the ghetto to survive



My heart goes out to the beautiful woman that raised me

20 years after the Watts Riot, early 80's

pops on drugs, moms couldn't take me in

had a daughter already, said she was to young to feed another baby

and shit got crazy, then 2 years came went

baby's just growing away, we can't even pay the rent

no hot water, i reminisce, tears runnin' down my face as i hold my daughter

you spent years by the fire place, i was in the garden every Sunday at the church

bible study at the carters, i was hard head

back then i was selling crack

when your hard earned money paid for basketball practice

always at the game on time, yelling at the coaches

wondering why your baby boy's sitting on the pon'

even thou life gets hard sometimes, i keep my head up

and i can make the sun shine in just one rhyme

walk with me.



My love for you

is like a angel flyin' thru the sky

like a bird in the winter, and

your love for me

is so deep, and sorta like a black rose cracking the cement

My love for you

lives on like the memory of Aaliyah singin' a last song

and your love for me

will never die like a black child struggling the ghetto to survive



And now the lanes at the 57 Lincoln Continental, peddle to the floor

looking for the highway to heaven, remember when your baby boy was 7

we had good times like i was Jay Jay and you was Florida Evans

I should have listen to the reverend, now i drain my pain in this 40 ounce

and these born ass records, disrespecting your house

living reckless, look at me, inside your jewelry box

about to pawn your necklace, every night you were in the window, lookin'

but what you do when your grandson's crooked, and he to old for whoopin'

used to tell me i was smarter than that, took me down to the Compton, swap meet,

bought my first starter hat, pulled over raider jacket to match

a pair of Levis, a number 8 Jordan's with the all black straps

when you died my soul cracked, can i get a soul clap

I'm walking without a heart, can somebody hold that



My love for you

is like a angel flyin' thru the sky

like a bird in the winter, and

your love for me

is so deep, and sorta like a black rose cracking the cement

My love for you

lives on like the memory of Aaliyah singin' a last song

and your love for me

will never die like a black child struggling the ghetto to survive



I got a lot of things i wanna ask the Lord

like why i can't see my grandmother face no more

and why i can't seem to live without her

and if i pray could he send her back to me one day

cause heaven to crowded, every time i think about it

i'm missin' your smile, can barely cough

my angel is gone, i'm heartbroke, drowning in my own tears

somebody throw me a robe or spread my wings so i can fly

i'm ready to die

might cry but i'm still a man, might be a man but i still cry

big mama my angel in the sky

if you wanna feel my pain, then close your eyes, hold your breath

now that's to close to death, open your eyes

see the light now, and if you love your grandmother like i love mine

go tell her right now, i know how this might sound

but my plan is to show you that i understand, you are appreciated



My love for you

is like a angel flyin' thru the sky

like a bird in the winter, and

your love for me

is so deep, and sorta like a black rose cracking the cement

My love for you

lives on like the memory of Aaliyah singin' a last song

and your love for me

will never die like a black child struggling the ghetto to survive
