hmmmm okay
It's not a mystery the life I have
It's been all on the news I can't hide my past
I done been in some trouble, committed some crimes
Been sentenced to prison had to finish my time
I'm just a man with a hell of a past
& the one thing I learned is to never look back
I used to love her she was all in my world
I was her dude, I used to call her my girl
Used to do the boyfriend, not nothing new to me
Told her we would marry if she just stayed true to me
Showed her everything that life can vision
& lost her on a cold lonely night in prison
She used to promise She would hold me down
Now I'm searching for a new love to hold me now
& she got to be loyal. loyal & all
& her main goal in life is to spoil Jamal
Chorus
Would you be there by my side when times get hard?
Promise to hold me while my back against the wall?
I promise you, I promise you, I promise you I'll always be true
Would you be there by my side when these streets get cold?
When im lonely inside & theres no one to hold?
I promise you, I promise you, I promise you I'll always be true boy
She made a promise that she could not keep
&Now she lives her life and it's without me
I found that every bird ain't as fly as the other
& every women ain't as fly as my mother
So now I just stick & move
See im a shining star now, I can pick & choose
I've been used, I don't like the feeling
& it left me with a certain dislike for women
Had me feeling like women was nothing
I love 'em but damn man I just can't trust 'em
I never said I was gon' be perfect,
but I promise on my momma that it's gon' be worth it
So Im'a keep searching 'til i find miss got it good
The girl go and she know what she got is good
I learned a lesson & I made it a blessing
So when I meet her Im'a ask her some questions
Chorus
Would you be there by my side when times get hard?
Promise to hold me while my back against the wall?
I promise you, I promise you, I promise you I'll always be true
Would you be there by my side when these streets get cold?
When im lonely inside & theres no one to hold?
I promise you, I promise you, I promise you I'll always be true boy
If my life was'nt fly as it is
If I had to hit the streets would you ride for Diggs?
If it was'nt for this rappin' I'd probably be jackin'
Could you promise to stay solid if that was the happen?
I know you gettin' money & you promise to spoil me
If I ever go to jail can you promise me loyalty?
Now remember I done heard it before,
so all them ficticious promises dont work no mo'
I need a women who gon' stand for something
who understand we made a plan without her man its nothing
Safe against us our money is shot???
& The mission was to get it,
is you wit' it or not?
[im wit it] Off tops I knew the answer to that
But if I say Diggs or die you got a answer for that?
[Diggs] See, now that's why I'm feeling you
Enough of the small talk back to the interview
Chorus
Would you be there by my side when times get hard?
Promise to hold me while my back against the wall?
I promise you, I promise you, I promise you I'll always be true
Would you be there by my side when these streets get cold?
When im lonely inside & theres no one to hold?
I promise you, I promise you, I promise you I'll always be true boy
