L.G. Wise - Just A Lil Love Lyrics
Take the time and come follow me, and thru this dreamAnd while i'm rollin' thru these neighborhoods see babies screamAnd mommas fiend, Yo, it's like they on the wrong teamHow many people close they eyes to this american dreamI look my children in they eyes and I wipe their tearsNow don't you fear, 'cuz daddy's gonna be right hereAnd every river you gotta cross I'll be right thereAnd every paain you gotta feel, you know I'll always careHow 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' wellBut on the inside, just a lil kid that's locked behind a cellAnd oh well, I never had a father there to lead 'em, but to leave 'emAnd they greavin' and they barely breathin'No reason to even try y'all to look for loveYou got dealt such a bad hand to be a thugChorusOh, what the worl needs is loveAnd all the homies stuck in prisonWhat we need is a lil love, that's what we missin'Oh, what the world needs is love, is love, we need a lil loveNever seen my pops, unless i seen him in meSomebody please help me explain all this miseryI'm hangin' out with these older cats and I'm payin' my duesActin' a fool up in the streets, I'm packin' this gat and these toolsAnd thinkin' its cool to sellin dope and never goin to schoolBut I'm a fool, I listened to them when it should have been youWhat kind of drama cause a momma turn her back on her kidsShe said I said I'll be back, but she never didI used to scream nobody love meI fell in love with the streets when thugs they huged meKnow what I'm sayin', Instead of the nights fallin asleepI fell in love with the streets, would have died as a thug hadn't been for your loveNo mommas and daddys and all these homies stuck in prisonWhat we need is a lil ove, that's what we missin'No mommas and daddys and all these homies stuck in prisonWhat we need is a lil love that's what we missin'ChorusAnd just like Jah, He never knew his daddyAnd just like me I never knew my daddyAnd while I'm ridin' with these older homies drivin' caddiesAnd now we cryin' wonder why my daddy had to have meYou can relate, but now we made it thruBut it wasn't easy you see, but can't forget the ones who diedWasn't as fortunate as meBut now that crack flood the streets, nobody know how it cameNobody wanna tell the truth, that's why we goin' insaneProject homes are steady broken, daddys out smokin'Watchin' babies lyin' dead in the casket, it ain't no jokeAnd how we gonna make it without these daddies and mommasThat's why we lost up in this world, crazy facin' this dramaMost of the fathers 20 years ago they had your backAlot of fathers in this day and time they hooked on crackAll we need is a lil love to change all thatI know it hurts to tell the truth, but gotta face the factsChorus
