|
Uh, Uh
|
Now there's two ways we can do this--keep it real or front
|
I know you got what I need and I got what you want
|
And the hunt for soulmates is all over for us
|
We could go away where nobody would know it was us
|
Leave behind all the fuss, studios, pictures
|
No autographs, just laughs when I'm wit ya
|
I know what it's like when they know you now
|
But bark at your dog baby, and I'll hold you down
|
|
[Mary]
|
Time and time and time again
|
I knew that our love had to end
|
But now it's gone so very far
|
That I can make a brand new start
|
I thought that we were meant to be
|
Be one big family
|
But I was weak and loved you still
|
No matter what you did, I could forgive
|
|
All I need is sincerity
|
All I need is sincerity
|
|
Thinking 'bout you all the time
|
Never seemed to cross my mind
|
How you could take the time to kill
|
Everything our love had built
|
I never knew how you could hide
|
Everytime you told a lie
|
But now I know why you're so cold
|
But I don't understand
|
|
Now that you set me free
|
I truly think that we
|
Could find love separately
|
I need sincerity
|
One thing I'm not as weak
|
I'll always stand alone But my heart is not made of stone
|
So I'll go on
|
|
All I need is sincerity
|
All I need is sincerity
|
|
Oh, oh, oh
|
|
[Nas]
|
Chipped tooth don
|
Nasty, blue ice timbs on
|
Screw face, half moon part, my tattoos dark
|
On a scale of tough criminals, nothin to call me
|
I'm a rare individual, young and I'm bossy
|
Guees it come from a rough life, cuffed at night
|
Lettin' off hot lead that bust from iron pipes
|
I'm the type that have to shed blood
|
Pray to the ghost of dead thugs, dead blocks that spread drugs
|
Fled from the cops 'till when my first joint dropped
|
I'm still wit my hood, Hollow Point still in the glock
|
But I've been shitted on by these high class hoes
|
Even these chickens did me wrong, I was just gettin' on
|
So I turned cold, givin 'em hard dick and straight to the hole
|
Like Rod Strickland, it was takin' it's toll
|
I needed someone I could hold in my darkest hour
|
A strong couple is a blessing and the heart is the power
|
Give me someone I could trust, not just a hotty to bone
|
Does she love Escobar, or love Nasir Jones?
|
Let me know so I could cop her the stones
|
What's clear to me, it's sincerity
|
Somebody I could call my own
|
|
All I need is sincerity
|
