I Swear

I swear
I would lock the door if the cops came and tell 'em you gone
I swear
I would rest in eternal sleep if they would let you live a little bit more

I swear
I'd give 'em my right arm, if they would just leave yo alone
Tell the truth, how much do I love ya
Tell the truth, more than you'll ever know

I'd tell you I'm tired of it, but nigga I will always be wit ya
Through hell or hot water it'll be me and you nigga
This can go down in the test of time
Whether Ripley believe it or not, make it happen once in a lifetime

Kinda hard to find
Two niggaz that growed up on two different sides of town
That get down like I get down
And done his like I done mines

Hit it off first time around
And been solid as the foundation under the house
This some, shit for us to brag about
We answered the question and never had to take the time to thank out

That's why I'll ride for my nigga, cry for my nigga
Die for my nigga
Hold ya one hand in the sky for ya nigga
Tell them you gone always remember

I swear
I would lock the door if the cops came and tell 'em you gone
I swear
I would rest in eternal sleep if they would let you live a little bit more

I swear
I'd give 'em my right arm, if they would just leave yo alone
Tell the truth, how much do I love ya
Tell the truth, more than you'll ever know

You know you one of the reasons I'm still breathin'
'Cause without you I don't know where in the hell I'd be
Homeboy
You know life's been hard at home
Homeboy
That's what made us turn to the streets
Homeboy

I think that's what had us claimin' thugs, sellin' drugs
Duckin from the fuckin' police
Indulgin' in boughshe women, foolish niggaz
Young, dumb, and off the leash

Outta control, but I wouldn't change it
If I could I would do it the same, if I can do it
But if it wasn't for the game, teachin' us game
We prolly would be stuck with the lames, but Dawg

Somehow we made it
And I'm glad that I can tell ya today
That my nigga gone always be my nigga
'Cuz that's the way it's pose to be

I swear
I would lock the door if the cops came and tell 'em you gone
I swear
I would rest in eternal sleep if they would let you live a little bit more

I swear
I'd give 'em my right arm, if they would just leave yo alone
Tell the truth, how much do I love ya
Tell the truth, more than you'll ever know

Sometimes I wanna play some ball
Sometimes I wanna walk through the mall
Sometimes I wanna play some ball
And just walk through the mall

Sometimes it ain't about the broads
And I just wanna spend some time alone
Sometimes it ain't about the broads
And I just wanna spend some time alone wit my niggaz

Sometimes I wanna hop in the car
And drive till tomorrow
Sometimes I wanna hop in the car
And just drive till tomorrow

Sometimes I wanna pick the phone
Just to see what's goin' on
Sometimes I gotta pick up the phone
Just to see what's goin' on wit my niggaz

I swear
I would lock the door if the cops came and tell 'em you gone
I swear
I would rest in eternal sleep if they would let you live a little bit more

I swear
I'd give 'em my right arm, if they would just leave yo alone
Tell the truth, how much do I love ya
Tell the truth, more than you'll ever know
