Truth Hurts

Your precious love, love means more to me
More, more than any love can ever mean, baby
You're entire truth, oh and I
Oh, I wanted you, lately I was so lonely
So lonely, lonely, so lonely and so blue
Good God, and that
That's what love will do, do

And you know something ladies
And especially you ladies I'd like to speak to
Because you know something ladies
You got a man, I don't care what kind of man you got
He wants you to get down on your knees every once in a while
And kinda crawl to him
And you know I got a man that's somewhere out there
That I don't mind crawling to
Sometimes I wake up in the midnight hour
Tears rolling down my face
And if I look around for my man and I can't find him
Hey I follow the Lord
Look a little higher, kinda pray to the Lord
Because I always believe that the Lord can help ya if nobody else could
But sometimes I think he don't even hear me
So after falling alone on my knees, look a little higher
Kinda raise my voice a little higher
And this is what I say when I call on my man
I especially want you ladies to listen to me
Cuz maybe you can try this
It might help you every once in a while
This is what you say when you call on your man
Give it to 'em to

Darlin', yeah darling, oh ladies
Darlin' don't you know that I love you so much, hey yeah
Oh, whew, fall down on my knees
Beg my baby please
I got to tell the man that I love him, yes I will
Whew

For your precious love
For your precious love
There's nothing, there's nothing
Nothing in this whole wide world
I wouldn't do for you darling, oh
I'd walk all night out in the rain
Lord I got to see my baby again
I gotta tell the man that I love him
One more time ya'll, whew

For your precious love
For your precious love
There's nothing, there's nothing
Nothing in this whole wide world
That I wouldn't do for you darling, oh
I'd walk all night out in the rain
Lord I got to see my baby again
I gotta tell the man that I love him
Yes I do, whew

For your precious love
For your precious love
There's nothing, nothing
Nothing in this whole wide world
That I wouldn't do for you darling, oh whew
Get down on my knees
I gotta beg you baby please
I gotta tell ya that I love ya
One more time, whew

He breaks, me down, he builds, me up
He fills, my cup, I like, it rough
We fuss, we brawl, we rise, we fall
He comes, in late, but it's, ok
He do, I do, he knows, the rules
He takes care of home, though he's not alone
I'm on, his knee, he keeps, me clean
And gives, me things, he makes, me scream

[Chorus: Truth Hurts]
He's so contagious, returns my pages
He's got me anxious, he's what I waited for
He keeps me guessin, spontaneous
He's so persuasive, and I'm his lady

[Verse 2: Truth Hurts]
Oh! Tonight he's waitin, and I ain't complainin
I'm entertainin, my number one fan
My back is achin, from our love makin
Oh yes I'm takin, ain't no use in fakin
My ups, my downs, my high and my lows
From head to toe, he makes me glow
He hits the spot, he makes me hot
I'm all that he's got, and he's all that I got

[Chorus: Truth Hurts]
He's so contagious, he turns my pages
He's got me anxious, he's what I waited for
He keeps me guessin, spontaneous
He's so persuasive, and I'm his lady

[Verse 3: Rakim]
Thinkin of a masterplan, you know anything you need baby ask your man
You was there from a half a grand
Now it's kelos to c notes and how fast your grands
We ball like we own the world, your only concern is you my only girl
And when we speakin in tongues
Breathin hard when I'm squeezin your lungs
Keep it strong, but I gotta hit the streets when I'm done
It's joy and pain, when you try to get ahead of the game
It's fucked up but you never complain
You just pray I don't get killed when I hit the hood
Just another hundred mill and I'm a quit for good
No more drug wars trips to jail and shootouts
Gettin loot out for lawyers and bail will get you boot out
Just me and you high off sex I'm twisted
You OG'd and you OD addicted

[Chorus: Truth Hurts]
He's so contagious, he turns my pages
He's got me anxious, he's what I waited for
He keeps me guessin, spontaneous
He's so persuasive, and I'm his lady
He's so contagious, he turns my pages
He's got me anxious, he's what I waited for
He keeps me guessin, spontaneous
He's so persuasive, and I'm his lady

It's three o'clock
Are you coming by my spot
I'll was feeling sexy, but I guess your not
Never available when I really want it
So what I'm gonna do, is what I got to do

Ohh Wee, yes I got to do me
If this is how I got to get mine on
At least I know it won't be wrong

Cause I know how to please me
If this is how it got to be
And then the thing do me
Like I do when I'm alone

Ohh Wee

As long as you ain't trippin
you don't even have to worry bout me
You know nobody does it like
you know how to do it but me
Well, if somebody doesn't come along and handle this permanently
I know how to love me, see

Ohh Wee, yes I got to do me
If this is how I got to get mine on
At least I know it won't be wrong

Cause I know how to please me
If this is how it got to be
And then the thing do me
Like I do when I'm alone
Ohh Wee

I'm gonna please me yeah
Break it down, break it down
Oooohhhhhhh, Weeeee

Chorus repeat

When I think about it when I got so much that I just cant complain and if I choose to believe something
new you cant con sev cause the thoughts are confined how you gonna find the nerve to believe that you
thought you'd be mine he's what I feel inside

I just dont wanna be misunderstood nobody telling me whats wrong or right bad or good cause I'm grown
I wanna feel free to release it if thats the way I'm feeling I wanna believe who I am to be and if I feel
disrespected that should be respected thats right above restriction of opinions how ever I whatever I

Don't think I'm selfish don't let it be a day when I'm feeling that the world is mine oh I'll make no
mistake cause its alright and even if I'm feelin' like I wanna complain that my right and if I choose to
lie, cuss, buss, or fight damn right

I just dont wanna be misunderstood nobody telling me whats wrong or right bad or good cause I'm grown
I wanna feel free to release it if thats the way I'm feeling I wanna believe who I am to be and if I feel
disrespected that should be respected thats right above restriction of opinions how ever I whatever I

I wanna feel free to release it if thats the way I'm feeling I wanna believe who I am to be and if I feel
disrespected that should be respected thats right above restriction of opinions how ever I whatever I

I wanna feel free to release it if thats the way I'm feeling I wanna believe who I am to be and if I feel
disrespected that should be respected thats right above restriction of opinions how ever I whatever I

Damn, Hollywood, land of how you do's
Movie stars, take two's, lights, camera
Where's my leadin' lady?

Out here in Hollywood you see so many games
Characters with so many names and faces
Counterfeit to the core, the bullshit they believe

I get a migraine tryin' to decipher who's who
When the life of the trife [Incomprehensible]
Who can you believe?
May be my folks Craine and Dean

What you wearin', how many carats?
What you drivin', don't worry about what I'm in
What you makin', nigga, what's the price on you?
Look at your chain, call that ice, homie?

You ain't gangsta, my clothes ain't tight on me
You where nut huggers and drink Christian Brothers with fake ID
A fraud ain't shit to me, a skinny broad is a bitch to me
Get a little fame and change up, fake gangsta

Hollywood made up bitch niggers, straight up
And them black born and stuck, fucked
It's hard to breathe with no love, no freight touch
I make hits daily, need a few? I got 'em

I coulda loaned you one or two
But Aftermath bought 'em, ironic ain't it?
I'm the CEO, judge, jury and the plaintiff
Sayin' fuck

Hollywood
Who are you, what you'll say you'll do
And why you let them get the best of you?

Hollywood
I know you call it V.I.P.
But let me tell you what it means to me
It's Hollywood

Somebody tossed you some game
With some fame and you burned your back
Motherfucker, how lame is that
Even arranged for you pains to exist and beyond the map

Oh high as a diddy ass bugie niggas, actin' like video bitches
You ain't pimpin', you switchin' and Hollywierd livin', bullshittin'
Got no time for time for that
Cut, print, check the gate, that's a wrap

And if one more rude Hollywood bugie bitch steps to me
High steppin' like she better than me
I'ma put it to her direct one and correctly, like this

See, if you knows when too damn hard to see
That a real girl cut bitches all the way to [Incomprehensible]
(Hey, are you a model, actress?)
Save your drama for the movies

That role you play, is it the life you live?
Are you one hundred percent positive
Or did you just forget when you got here?
To this place of the misguided, them niggers tryin' to blend in

Hollywood
Who are you, what you'll say you'll do
And why you let it get the best of you?

Hollywood
I get you call it V.I.P.
But let me tell you what it means to me
It's Hollywood

Yeah, but the Truth Hurts
Hollywood, Hollywood

Oh

Tonight I want to get started
Do what I came to do
I see you checkin'
But see, I'm not really checkin' for you, no

I want to sit back
Join baby, have a drink or two
(That's what I've come to do)
So don't come spit 'cause that's not what I'm about
Not tonight, I'm cool, yeah, yeah

No, I'm not really lookin' (Mmm)
Just came to have a good time (I'm not)
Don't wanna get too serious (No, hey)
That's not what's on my mind (Not what's on my mind)

No, I'm not really lookin' (Hey)
That's not what's on my plan (Not my plan)
Don't wanna be with you tonight (Hey)
Not lookin' for no man (No man, no man, no man)

Another day in the nightlife
In a club, tryin' to get away from my wife
With my ladies, introduce them to a mad world
And I saw you side step 'em, you's a bad girl
Look at you sittin' on a stool at the bar, you's a young star
With your own crib, own chips, and own car
But you're starin' at my nephew R
Like you're makin' me jealous, but you ain't knowin' me
Fellas, what you gonna tell us
You must be thinkin' that my mack ain't tired
I'm pimpin', you're turnin' your back, baby, you ain't right
You better ask this bartender
That be holdin' a platinum American Express Corporate
with stars in them
With that Cris' in your clutch
Fooled by the bull, by the bull too much
How come we can't get into some bubble s***
Some of that old get naked, get in trouble s*** (Mmm,mmm)

Oh, no, I'm not really lookin' ('Cause I'm not)
Just came to have a good time (No, no)
Don't wanna get too serious (No)
That's not what's on my mind (That's not what's on my mind)

Yes, I'm not really lookin'
That's not what's on my plan (No)
Don't wanna be with you tonight
Not lookin' for no man

Come this party and I'm not tryin' to stop
Ho, beggars don't be wylin', make 'em shut down the
spot, oh, no
So baby, just cool out, that's not what this is about
Come feel me on this flow, I'm not just sayin' no

No, I'm not really lookin' (No)
Just came to have a good time (Good time)
Don't wanna get too serious (Hey, oh)
That's not what's on my mind (On my mind, yeah)

No, I'm not really lookin'
That's not what's on my plan (Not my plan)
Don't wanna be with you tonight
Not lookin' for no man (No man)

No, I'm not really lookin' (I'm not)
Just came to have a good time
Don't wanna get too serious ('Cause it's a party)
That's not what's on my mind

No, I'm not really lookin' (I)
That's not what's on my plan (I)
Don't wanna be with you tonight
Not lookin' for no man

(No man)
No, no man
No, no

(Not lookin')
F***, where's my drink?
(Not lookin')

Baby, baby, oh yeah

I got this story about this player named Jimmy
He used to get down for me
Whenever he wanted I told him he could come, get plenty
He got the remedy

My bills was paid he kept me laced
? fell in love instantly
Then I got the call one day, they told me Jimmy's on his way
The penitentiary, and it's no mystery

Now he can't come around, no more
He's locked up for 10 or more
I could have just flipped your door
Well I'm gonna miss ya, that's for sure

Shut it down homie, I got you
Just tell me what you need
Won't forget you when I'm out boo
Just to show love for me

What a feelin' start to use no lie
Don't give a damn I sacrificed my life
I got your back until the day you die
Hell yeah I'm strong but baby I don't like this

But you can't come around, no more
And you're locked up for 10 or more
I should have just flipped your door
I'm gonna miss you that's for sure, for sure

Why did you have to go, go, go, go
'Cause I, I'm gonna miss the time we spent baby
Maybe we should've run away

I'm gonna keep it tight while you're gone
I'm waiting, you'll return one day
I'm gonna miss the way you put it down at night
After all is said and done

Ain't no ? phone me
Baby, you're the only one

Baby, no, no, no, no, no
Jimmy, Jimmy
Jimmy, Jimmy

[R. Kelly]
Mommy listen up you got me confused

Then later on that night you ain't gonna believe this shit
There was a knock at the door
Now check it I'm bout to hip ya
The door opens what about ten or eleven strippa's
The first thing I did was went into a room to pick up
A phone to call you but no said the liquor
But now I got the hiccups
Hands up like a stick up
Got to come all up in here and hear your ass bicker
And after all that what make this shit the worse
Even though I'm wrong I admit the truth hurts

Hum. See some of ya'll niggas can't deal with the TRUTH

Trying to turn it all around when you know it's the TRUTH
And you always running away from the TRUTH

Undress the lie tell what you got it TRUTH
Should have been up front and just told the TRUTH

Jeah.. uhh.. it's what I do for a livin nigga
Eat for a livin nigga (watcher)
That's how I live for a livin nigga.. (watcher)
Okay, let's do this (the watcher)

[Verse One: Jay-Z]
Things just ain't the same for gangsters
But I'm a little too famous to shoot these pranksters
All of these rap singers claimin they bangers
Doin all sorts of twisted shit with they fingers
Disrespectin the game, no home trainin or manners
I was doin this shit when you was shittin Pampers
I was movin them grams 'fore you, knew what a hand that hand was
Duckin the vans, radars, the scanners
'Fore you knew what hard white to tame was
I was hittin the turnpike, aight with the bammers
I was nice with my hands, cuss aight with them hammers
I was prickin my finger 'fore you knew what a Fam was
I had it laid out 'fore you knew what a plan was
Three hundred mill' later, now you understand us
Y'all ain't see us comin through Vegas
You ever seen so much cham' bust in one night
Grand fucked up one fight
I was on the Peter Pan bus
You was Peter Pan up in your room, y'all fuckin with whom?
Allowed me to be taught
You cowards is just now learnin the shit that we talk
You niggaz ain't know about a Robb Report
Bout a high speed Porsche, i.e.
You niggaz ain't know how to floss 'til I came through the door
like "Eric B. for Pres," respect me in this BITCH!
You can't disrespect us cause you got a little check cut
You was suckin for so long, fuckin your little neck up
Now you too big for your britches, you got a few little bitches
You think you Hugh Hefner, you just ridiculous
I blew breath for you midgets, I gave life to the game
It's only right I got the right to be king
Niggaz that got life really like what I sing
Cause they know is he really like, niggaz feel my pain
Know the shit I DON'T write be the illest shit that's ever been recited
in the game word to the hyphen in my NAME!
J, A, Y, DASH, Hoffa
The past present nigga the future, proper
The holy trinity of hip-hop is us
We give, Dre his props BUT that's where it stops
It's the Roc

[Chorus: Truth Hurts]
I know, you got your eyes on me
I feel you watchin me
But it ain't hard to see that you can't see me
You try, but what you think you saw
Ain't what you thought you saw
You bed-da off not lookin at all
(Everywhere that I go, ain't the same as befo')
(People I used to know, just don't know me no mo')
(But everywhere that I go, I got people I know)
(Who got people they know, so I suggest you lay low)

[Verse Two: Dr. Dre]
I'm still on top of the game
Still droppin flames, still cock and aim
Still at the top had the Roc for the fame
over setbacks, there's been a lot since I came
You seen it all, how I got, how I gained
The momentum when it dropped, how I got through the pain
When I roll and shock, they watched me reclaim
the streets, they made a special spot for my name
Dre, haters wanna stop to my reign
But the music lives in me, every drop in my veins
The pride and the pain
All the way back from the rise of my name
See the world clear through the eyes of the mane
See the world chear for the rhymes that I gave
When the beat bangs it'll drive them insane
The eyes that I played
The best to emerge in the game is The Watcher

[Chorus]

[Verse Three: Rakim]
I'm "Rated R," my brain contains graphics thangs
It turn traumatic teens into addicts, and fiends
It's like, watchin a movie through a panoramic screen
Which means, I can see the whole planet in the scene
Cash is the topic, the object, a fatter pocket
Some take the crack and chop it, but those that haven't got it
take away the added profit, it's catastrophic
I take the gat and cock it, and I'll sit back and watch it
These New York streets is ugly, I keep it gully
The world is mine and can't nobody keep it from me
Yo, my neighborhood is never sunny
In the place where the number one cause of death is money
You can try copin
I've seen enough shit to leave your frame of mind broken
I'm still alive and scopin
Be another hundred years 'til my skies close in
And I'ma die with my eyes open, the watcher [echoes]

[Chorus]
