For You

Dedicated to all my peeps who looked out over the years KnawhatI'msayin? This one's for you Chorus: Guru + Me'Shell For you dedicated true I'm doin this one for you For you dedicated true I'm doin this one for you [Guru] To my moms and my pops I'm glad you stayed together I don't know too many people to demonstrate true love better Nowadays kids don't have anyone but you were there and determined, to make me get plenty done Yes to achieve although a lot of times I hurt you But I'm matured now, I'm showin you my true virtue As I deliver to you, an oath of neverending love admiration and respect, for there is nothing above a mother's strength and a father's concern There was guidance, no matter which way I turned Yo pops if I could be half the man you are I'd be a star Moms thanks for pushin me real far As I proceed through the tundra, and harsh winds I think reviewin what you've instilled within So I'm takin time out to let you know Once a boy now a man thanks for helpin me grow Chorus 2X [Guru] Goin out to my peoples, for all the times we've spent Fifty deep up in the party gettin crazy stupid bent Around the block puffin lye, cruisin in the car Whatever we was doin I won't forget it Baby Pah When I had no dough, you were there You hooked me with some ends, to show me that you cared You stood by me through the ups and downs while the other fakin clowns tried to start hangin around See you were always genuine That's why respect is due, and I got you on my mind A lot of people might not understand the way we click We're rollin thick, hittin harder than a ton of bricks With all the drama and the phony personas I'd rather check my man so we can share some knowledge If the streets were college, some MC's would flunk out Sendin shouts to my peeps, crazy love no doubt Chorus [Guru] A true friend kid, is mad mad rare Trustin others is a risk, a lot of things ain't fair Cause where I be at, a lot of strange things happen jack You can know a kid for years and still he'll stab you in the back But that's alright cause I'm a good judge of character And me and my family, we maintain the balance to master the challenges of life Like the chain and the star, we link up to shine mad bright To all my boys way across the country dealin with the struggle, the good the bad and the ugly Yo under pressure we're the best No matter what the circumstance no matter how much stress Our force has the power, to bring forth change I'd rather see us succeed than feel shame or go insane Dedicated to my fam that supported You shall always, I said always be applauded Chorus 2X
