I found peace Like Malcolm in the East Seen H.E.R. on the streets of New York, tricking off Tried to make a hit with H.E.R. but my dick went soft Movin weight, losing weight Not picky with who she choose to date To confuse the hate with her struggle I relate Close to thirty Most of the n***as she know is dirty Having more babies than Lauryn She started showing early As of late I realized, that this is H.E.R. fate Or destiny that brings the best of me It's like God is testing me In retrospect I see she brought life and d**h to me Peace to us collectively, live and direct when we perform It's just coffee shop chicks and White dudes Over H.E.R. I got into it with that n***a Ice Cube Now the fight moved to in life, making the right moves Besides God and family, you my life's j**el Like that y'all [Black Thought] It's like, word up, and it sounds nice Hip-Hop, you the love of my life, what Bout to take you to the to the to the To the to the to the to the To the to the to the to the To the to the to the to the, yo Fifth Dynamite, and it sounds so nice Hip-Hop, you the love of my life I'm bout to take you to the top love Hip-Hop, word up, to the top (to the top) Hip-Hop, check it out It's like that, what And it sounds alright Hey, cause you the love of my life I'm bout to take you to the to the to the To the to the to the to the To the to the to the to the To the to the to the to the, check it out What, yeah and it sounds so nice Hip-hop, you the love of my life Bout to take you to the top love Hip-hop, hip-hop to the top (to the top) hip-hop (hip-hop) Fifth Dynamite, and it sounds alright Hey, cause you the love of my life I'm bout to take you to the to the to the To the to the to the to the To the to the to the to the To the to the to the to the, check it out, yo Ye-yeh-yo, yo, and it sounds so nice Hip-Hop, you the love of my life We bout to take you to the top love Hip-hop, hip-hop To the top, to the top Hip-hop, hip-hop Check it out, it's like, yeah, and it's sounds alright Hip-Hop, you the love of my life We bout, take it to the to the to the
