I don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you,
I used to watch it, kept my face in the screen
A little young and thought about ballin'
a year later started chasin' a dream
Same hun ger, different sport,
First song I heard and remember was
me and my mom would be playin' in the crib
her, every time I left home
I played it for him over the phone
June of 95 was when I started to cook
Same year I lost my feet,
watching both pleasure and pain
Saturday I'm out my bed ready for
way before I thought of a deal
Being teached and taught the old school,
Although it sounds great,
that's what it seems to be
Think about it, it started the
I don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you,
Records is droppin' and now
Went from lovin' the game,
now they mad with each other
brother hot in the street
TV, like change that blink
I love the fact that you can do
this and move off your block
I hate the fact you've done too much,
Y 'all the main reason why I
ain't gotta hit me to stop
I gotta deal with phony people,
I don't know you if we didn't
I gotta watch when I'm shinin',
they plottin' a scheme on me
And catch me from the blindside,
Or cause I got low name and a low fame
And it's me girls yell for when per
I ask myself, am I ready for this?
Do I really wanna see myself
don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you
I swear I hear him talking
I gotta wake up preparing my day
I can 't be late for a meeting
Different people in my face they
telling me different things
What to do and not to do,
my lifestyle just changed
No more late night kickin' it on
A &R don't want me in the street
It's sad out of 24 hours before I sleep
we argue before leavin' out
I take her down before leavin' out
Sisters always flippin' out,
younger brothers missin' me
This hair got me to put gifts
Anyone that get me wrong,
put that chain on my neck
I promise wouldn't want it to stop
Homie, I'm dedicated, built for this,
I love hip -hop, that's why
I don't know why I love you
I swear I hear him talking
Talk to a hip -hop about that, man
Man, man, we in the house
