Shells - Why I Love You lyrics

[Hook] Ohhh... Sure now baby, baby, baby Ooohooo... I don't know why I love you (Right) I don't know (C'mon) Why I love you (Let's talk to 'em) I don't know why I love you (Right, right) But I love ya (C'mon) (C'mon) (C'mon) [Verse 1: Shells] Before I was me I used to watch it, kept my face in the screen A little youngin' Thought about balling With nothing between Switched over Yeah later, started chasin' the dream Same hunger, different sport, all I need is a team The first song I heard, I remember, was "Juicy" by Big And if I'm right, me and my moms were cleaning the crib Promoted it, as if I knew 'em, every time I left home My cousin locked up - I played it for him over the phone In June of '95 is when I started to cook Same year I lost my V And the game lost E Observing the game Watching both pleasures and pain And every Saturday I'm on my bed ready for Soul Train Young in the field, way before I thought of a deal Being teached and taught Old school records been bought Althought it sounds great, that's what it seems to be Think about it. It started the east-west coast beef (Talk to 'em) [Hook] [Verse 2: Shells] Records is dropping And now dudes dissing each other Went from, loving the game Now they made with each other And videos got my little brother's heart in the street He want what he see on TV like 'change that bling' I love the fact that you can do this and move off your block I hate the fact that if you done too much, you're bound to get shot Big Pun, Big L, Biggie Smalls, and Pac: Y'all are the main reason why I ain't got it in me to stop I gotta deal with funny people, who act like we cool I don't know you if we didn't attend the same school I gotta watch when I'm shining, they plotting to scheme on me And catch me from the blind side, putting the beam on me Or cause I got a lil' name and a lil' fame And it's me girls yell for, when performing on the stage I ask my self, "Am I ready for this?" Do I really wanna see myself caught in the mix? (Why wouldn't I?) [Hook] [Verse 3: Shells] There's always an issue I gotta wake up, preparin' my day I can't be late for a meetin', if I do then I pay Different people in my face, they tellin' me different things - What to do and not to do, my lifestyle just changed No more late night, kickin' it on the corner with fellas Deadlines for me, my aeronauto don't want me in the street I listen and understand cause together we eat They said, out of 24 hours, 4 I sleep I had a girl back home Who was mad when i was leaving We fought over phones I took her down before leavin' her Sistas always flippin' out Younger brother's missin' me This here got me to put gifts under the Christmas tree I'm hated on by people I never met Anyone could get me robbed for the chain on my neck But if you ask me, I promise, wouldn't want it to stop Homie, I'm dedicated and built for this I love hip-hop That's why: [Hook]
