Intro:
Yo, this ones for you, you know who, you make me do the things I’d never do, stayed beside me so I’ve stood beside you,
Midst the tripping you’ve done so much, always forgiven never held a grudge, got so much respect I gotta pay, so sit back while I do this lyrically.

Verse 1:
Yo this ones for you, you know who, you make me do the things I never thought I could do, like growing up, like showing love, even showing respect to this world other than myself,
For so long, things where so wrong, and then you pick me up and build me up to way strong,
I thank god you came along to turn the switch on, to make me flip the licks, to turn it quick, to put this peace on,
When i was at my lowest you stood me up to my feet, told me to own it, never give up don’t admit defeat, cause at the end of the day there’s only one I gotta please, and it’s not this world that will put me on my knees,
Stood beside me so I stood beside you, you’ve held my hand while I took you out and dined you,
Taken things at there lowest now you get it at the top cause until this bottle pop these tracks don’t stop.

Pre-Hook:
Yo this ones for you, you know who, you make me do the things I thought I couldn’t do,
I said it once before I’ll say it once again, everything I’ve got I’ll give it up if in the end,
In the beginning things where never like this, I remember being left alone as a kid,
And then you come along and you picked me up, you build me up, thank god you showed up.

Verse 2:
In the beginning things where never this way, I remember being left alone in the rain,
Left with all the hate and pain that never goes away, no it wasn’t from you but its still a part of me,
Instilled as a youth way before I met you, it’s the truth there ain’t nothin bout it I can do,
But move forward, push on, grow up, prove to everyone that I got it going on to keep it strong,
When I’m hitting decks, or when they’re flippin tracks that’s when I know I can’t show or express the slack,
Slip up give or give up or give in to the crack or let these other thoughts move out from the black,
Keeping negativity all locked in, all squashed up tossed up thrown in that bin,
Prove to you I got what it takes to make Benjamins, then come back the next day in bed to crawl on in.

Main Hook:
Yo this ones for you, you know who, you make me do the things I thought I couldn’t do,
I said it once before I’ll say it once again, everything I’ve got I’ll give it up if in the end,
In the beginning things where never like this, I remember being left alone as a kid,
And then you came along and you picked me up, you build me up, thank god you showed up.
At the end of the day there’s only one I gotta please together you and I we make our own decree,
Forever you and I we could be royalty never alone, together, promise we’ll always be,
Playing our own song on our own horizon, wherever we are always your bed I climb in,
Keep my extra special attention just for you, cause when I’m not home I only want you.

Verse 3:
I said it once before and I’ll say it once again, everything i’ve got i’d give it up if in the end,
You wasn’t part of it there’d be nothing left for me to look forward too in this whole life you see,
With these kids passed many a bridge all the fakers, makers, takers that moved up and come on up wid,
Never see em again cause thankfully, in the end it’s just you and me and our family,
Nothin else matters cause nothin else tops what you and I got and had since growing up,
We’ve always had it and we kept it way strong, kept it goin that’s how we grew to this level that we’re on,
Everyone envied what they always said we’d be, down and out nowhere by the age of 20,
But we proved em all wrong, yeah we played our own song, drifted away, lifted away up to our own horizon,
Where our dreams and memories for eternity, no-one could get between together we’d always be,
You and me making creating our own decree, proving to this world we could be royalty,
I’d strengthen up the paupers, i’d straighten up the streets, to live up to what these people gone need,
But still I keep my extra special moments on the side for you, remember all our special times like even when in this booth.
