[Chorus:]
|
In spite of all your wrongs, my love for you keeps rollin' strong
|
|
[Verse 1:]
|
Black ski mask, 50 taught him how to ride
|
Watch him with the.40, call him Kobe, he a shooting guard
|
Owner of the store, he always be trippin'
|
So after he do his count, we gon' catch him slippin'
|
That's when he thought in his brain he heard a bang
|
Then the owner came out with that thang and let 'em rang
|
He hit the owner in his neck, ended with his death
|
Panicked, threw the gun in the trash, and then he left
|
Now he in front of the judge dodging the book
|
'Cause sin got no sympathy for killers and these crooks
|
Uh, gave him life in the clink
|
Trapped in the pen, he the ink
|
Contemplated suicide, "I feel like such a fool"
|
"Is there a heaven for a gangster? Can I be renewed?"
|
And around that time there was a guard controlling Block 2
|
Looked in his cell, said "God told me to tell you..."
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
In spite of all your wrongs, my love for you keeps rollin' strong
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
Till death do us part, husband and wife
|
You'll be mine and I'll be yours for the rest of my life
|
Infatuation's amazing when it's at very start
|
But two kids and arguments can pull you far apart
|
She driftin', and that dude at work, he listen
|
He notice her when her hair fly, she lovin' his attention
|
A couple lunch dates, they won't hurt her
|
"Besides, it ain't a date if he my co-worker"
|
That's how she rationalizes all the lies that she tells
|
Till them restaurants turn to hotels
|
And them "uh-ohs" turn to "owells"
|
She in an affair, but she wanna end it 'cause it ain't fair
|
Yeah, she break it off, come home, didn't tell her husband
|
He feel broken, betrayed, she gave away her lovin'
|
But instead of hate, he chose another way
|
Love her like Christ, he grab her hand and say...
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
In spite of all your wrongs, my love for you keeps growing strong
|
|
[Verse 3:]
|
Deep inside my heart, I'm growing bitter
|
Not from Kansas City, but I am Chief of sinners
|
If it seem that I am more supreme than
|
Anyone, for really bro, I hope you don't believe that
|
Like Jeffrey Dahmer, I got skeletons inside my closet
|
You see everything, ain't no point in trying to hide it
|
I sit and wonder at times, I talk to you in my lines
|
Like I stay on the grind, but feel at times that I'm high
|
So in these times when I Humpty Dumpty, I fall
|
Turn my phone off when you call, you mean you still there for me, Lord?
|
I don't believe it's that easy that you would die for this treason
|
You said you love me, believe it, I ain't seein' a reason
|
Uh, if I was you I would be through with P
|
And throw him in the Lake of Fire where them demons be
|
I'm Mr. Magoo, your ways I'll never see
|
'Cause I mess up and you keep tellin' me...
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
In spite of all your wrongs, my love for you keeps rollin' strong
|
