No Love

(album: The One And Only - 2008)

We was like brothers, same bed, shared the covers
In my house, it felt like you came out my mother
Couldn't picture life without my nigga, we wore the same shoes
Cut school, ate chips and now and laters
We hit the street and broke bread together
The D's jumped out so we both fled together
Used to dream about how we get rich together
No matter what, boy, we was gonna stick together
But the cops came and I got caught
Took a plea bargain, so now I'm up North
Sitting up in my cell, late writing letters to you
Five years done passed, still ain't got a letter from you
And I'm hearing about the Benz you're driving now
I'm in the yard, man, barely surviving now
I can't believe that you shitted on me
All I needed was flicks and a little commissary

Ain't no love lost, homie
If you got for me, then you gon' get love from me
Actions speak louder than words
I said actions speak louder than words

So now you're trying to stick it out
Even though you know I was foul
And your friends and your family know how I get down
Mad at me, not wanting me to face my child
But knowing it takes a family to raise a child
So you took me back everytime I did wrong
Finding other girls' numbers in my cell phone
Now here you are, stuck with a man that's no good
But telling to your friends that everything's all good
Look, girl, I got some serious issues
Deep down I love you, now I don't mean to diss you
You're a good girl, I really need to kiss you
But I guess I'm a coward, to even hit you
And I can see why your family doubts me
Cause I can't get cheating up out me
Ain't no need to keep crying about me
You should leave, you're probably better off without me

Ain't no love lost, homie
If you got for me, then you gon' get love from me
Actions speak louder than words
I said actions speak louder than words

Now these niggas in the hood think I changed up on 'em
Cause I ain't had time to really hang with 'em
Ain't got time to get up with 'em
I'm trying to get that crown and bring it back to 'em
But they don't understand that I'm trying to get it
Heard me on the radio and think I'm acting different
If I was on the block with 'em everything would be terrific
They say I changed cause I'm trying to sell records
These niggas dumb, man, I love my hood
I'm still me, I ain't Hollywood, I'm doing what I should
And that's to put food on my son's plate
Can't do that if I'm standing around on Gates
What niggas think? That my gun don't work no more?
Cause I ain't sitting on the strip with work no more?
These guys know not on what they do
So I forgive 'em cause they don't know what to do

Ain't no love lost, homie
If you got for me, then you gon' get love from me
Actions speak louder than words
I said actions speak louder than words
