Shareefa U Told Me

So what, what do I do now, do what without you now? [x2]

you told me that we would always be together

Said we'd make it through the stormy weather

But ya locked up now

you told me don't wait on a thug forever

Said I gotta look for something better

Cause ya locked up now (Got another story to tell)

I should've known, from the corner of the block that you were wrong

One day soon you'd be leaving me alone, but I gave you the digits anyway

Ooh I had my doubts, but you know how I like em thugged out

Thought for sure I could change a thugs route

But a mans gonna be what a man wants to be no matter what ya say sometimes

You gave me fancy cars, diamonds and pearls

But without ya here what is it worth?

Not a damn thing

Sometimes I cry in the rain for you

Ya wishing things could be the way they were

Cause all the joy of love turned into hurt

And I cant take the pain

These pictures on the wall wont do

Gangsta you told me that we would always be together

Said we'd make it through the stormy weather

But ya locked up now

And it breaks my heart to be without my baby

you told me don't wait on a thug forever

Said I gotta look for something better

Cause ya locked up now

And it breaks my heart to be without my gangsta

I understand that in the game sometimes you lose ya man

But 25 to life wasn't in the plan, how do I pick up the pieces?

I keep falling to pieces, everytime that I see you caged up

I kept praying everyday you'd wake up

But all the money somehow wasn't enough

I guess you had ya own reasons

Now its only teasin your ??

You gave me fancy cars, diamonds and pearls (You gave me)

But without ya here what is it worth?

Not a damn thing

Sometimes I cry in the rain for you

Ya wishing things could be the way they were (Hey hey)

Cause all the joy of love turned into hurt

And I cant take the pain

These pictures on the wall wont do

Gangsta you told me that we would always be together (Hey hey yeah)

Said we'd make it through the stormy weather (you told me)

But ya locked up now

And it breaks my heart to be without my baby

you told me don't wait on a thug forever

Said I gotta look for something better

Cause ya locked up now

And it breaks my heart to be without my gangsta

??

As long as I knew you'd come home

A simple 9 to 5 and some quality time

(instead of catchin up on the jail phone)

I tried to let go cause ya telling me so

But I don't wanna move on

I'm down for mine but I'm tired of crying

I gotta face the fact that you're gone.

you told me that we would always be Goethe

Said we'd make it through the stormy weather

But ya locked up now

And it breaks my heart to be without my baby

you told me don't wait on a thug forever

Said I gotta look for something better

Cause ya locked up now

Don't it break yo heart to be without yo gangsta

So what, what do I do now, do what without you now? [x4]
