(feat. Mary J. Blige, Poppa

[Intro One: (some movie)]

What dey gives you blood?
Three months man
Whatchu doin in here anyway?  You oughta be home
with your momma
How old are you boy?
Thirteen
Thirteen?  Damn, the bastards must be runnin
outta niggaz to arrest

[Intro: Ghostface]

Yeah, ohh yeah, this goes out
to all the families that went through the
struggle
Yeah, from the heart
It was from the heart, everything was real

[Mary J.]
All that I got is you
And I'm so thankful I made it through

[Verse One:]

Yo, dwellin in the past, flashbacks when I was
young
Whoever thought that I'd have a baby girl and
three sons
I'm goin through this difficult stage I find it
hard to believe
Why my old Earth had so many seeds
But she's an old woman, and due to me I respect
that
I saw life for what it's really worth and took a
step back
Family ain't family no more, we used to play ball
Eggs after school, eat grits cause we was poor
Grab the pliers for the channel, fix the hanger
on the TV
Rockin each others pants to school wasn't easy
We survived winters, snotty nosed with no coats
We kept it real, but the older brother still had
jokes
Sadly, daddy left me at the age of six
I didn't know nuttin but mommy neatly packed his
shit
She cried, and grandma held the family down
I guess mommy wasn't strong enough, she just went
down
Check it, fifteen of us in a three bedroom
apartment
Roaches everywhere, cousins and aunts was there
Four in the bed, two at the foot, two at the head
I didn't like to sleep with Jon-Jon he peed the
bed
Seven o'clock, pluckin roaches out the cereal box

Some shared the same spoon, watchin saturday
cartoons
Sugar water was our thing, every meal was no
thrill
In the summer, free lunch held us down like steel
And there was days I had to go to Tex house with
a note
Stating "Gloria can I borrow some food I'm dead
broke"
So embarrasin I couldn't stand to knock on they
door
My friends might be laughin, I spent stamps in
stores
Mommy where's the toilet paper, use the newspaper
Look Ms. Rose gave us a couch, she's the neighbor
Things was deep, my whole youth was sharper than
cleats
Two brothers with muscular dystrophy, it killed
me
But I remember this, mom's would lick her finger
tips
To wipe the cold out my eye before school wit her
spit
Case worker had her runnin back to face to face
I caught a case, housin tried to throw us out of
our place
Sometimes I look up at the stars and analyze the
sky
And ask myself was I meant to be here... why?
Yeah, yo

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]

All that I got is you
And I'm so thankful I made it through
[repeat 4X]

Word up mommy, I love you
Word up
It was all you, word, you brought me in like this

[Verse Two: Mary J. Blige, Poppa Wu]

I sit and think about
All the times we did without, yeah
I always said I woudn't cry
When I saw tears in your eyes
I understand that daddy's not here now
But some way or somehow, I will always be around,
yeah
All things that I did from this to them
Oh from drugs to being there
Being down and out and I love you always

Yeah, you say
You see the universe, which consists of the sun
moon and star
And them planets, that exist in my space
Like man woman and child
You understand?
We got to keep it real, and what reality and
reality will keep it real with us
I remember them good ol days
Because see, that's the child I was
What made me the man I am today
See cause if you forget where you come from,
heheh
You're never gonna make it where you're goin,
aheh
Because you lost the reality of yourself
So take one stroll through your mind
And see what you will find
And you'll see a whole universe all over again
and again and again and again and again
Heheheh, yeah heheheheh ahaheheheh
