Letra The way we live Noreaga

The way we live

[Noreaga] *DeBarge sings in background*

Y'know what I mean? This for the woman, y'know what'm sayin? Coming up, just

Trying to get a nut. Y'all really understand what we doing. Ya know? Y'all
Understand that we hurting y'all, y'all come attatched. It's all good. This
One for y'all, y'know what I mean? Yo, ya know? it's crazy. We all together.

[Noreaga]


I used to cut pies, in front of my girl, now I apologized

The reason why: (My fault) she seen the red in my eyes

When I was cuttin it, feelin like the archives

Choppin it down, thinkin I'm, choosing my prize

Never hit the street with out my heat, boo, told me not to
Said, "Paps, we know the jake 'ill try to knock you"

You do your thing, boo, I'll still be there, don't mean to knock you

I know it's hard fuckin with a thug nigga like me

Thinkin would I get locked?
Come home tonight or notà

Black Princess, kiss you when I see you

White women suntan and try to be you

The ?Mellanin? in your skin, make it all see-through

Sometimes he hurt y'all, not understanding what we doing

Sweatin at the foul line like Pat Ewing
Yo from all the brothers

I dedicate to the mothers

My mother, grandmother of the Earth
If it wasn't for women, then it wouldn't be birth

What, it's all real


Chorus [Chico DeBarge]

We're just some thug people (That's what we are)
That's what we are, trying hard to change the way we live
(
Change the way we live)

But we can't take back, cause that's what we are

Trying hard to change the way life we live

[Noreaga]


Yo, yo, aiyyo, you got chronic? You got yours, I got mines

Lets get real high, light it all at the same time

Stop holdin, (hold it up) babe it's your turn to roll it

I used to spend time outside with my dime

She be, rocking my chain, thinkin she shine

Straight beautiful, yo, I'm really glad that she mine

Kiss you on the forehead, cause yo, boo
This one for you

The stupid shit I did in the past, I didn't mean it

You know a nigga skinny, cause a nigga 'nemic
But when you cook, the way that it smell, the way that it look

Cause chef, plus you look good, that's off the hook

You go to school to

Sit back, or respect dude

Work you part-time, spendin your time around mine
I'm lovin you, that's why I wrote this rhyme

Flying in to Bell Harbor, when we need to shop
It's Cartier, Gucci, Gaultier, shit won't stop!

Chorus

[Noreaga]


Yo, it's all good, I'm likin that two-hundred 'stand me?

It even flipped, when I was down in Miami
Called me on my cell phone, Jones like I'm still home

Tell me what your wearing girl, or what you look at pillin girl

Step into my life now, share my world
That's what I like about you, you got faith in me

Be shining by yourself, with little lace with me

The only thing I love more, gotta be the kids

You got the real hair, while other chicks rock wigs

I can remember back then, quite distinctively

When you friends kept saying not to get with me

But you couldn't help it, I know the both of us felt it

The both us melt it, the both of us dealt with

The rumors and the lies, your eyes on dies

Is enough for a brother to cut off ties

To any other chick I used to mess with

Keepin it real, cause you the real one, that I wanna step with


Chorus - in background


This song right here, is dedicated to all of y'all, y'know what I mean? Cause,
We know how we are, we know how we make y'all feel sometimes. Knowing that we
Ain't doing it purposely. We're just being the person that we are. Hanging
With the fellas, gettin jealous, y'know what I mean?
You know what it is. This
One's for y'all.
Word up. I want y'all to tell all y'all girlfriends about this one


Chorus
