Someone told me long ago There's a calm before the storm It's been comin' for some time When it's over, so they say It'll rain a sunny day Shinin' down like water I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?

I told ya I was troubled You know that I'm no good You had to be a nasty girl and try to play me I could forgive the past, but I never forget it I cheated myself Like I knew I would

Why do you think I come 'round here on my free will? Wasting all my precious time I've told you now Still I refrain From talking at you, talking on You know me well I don't explain You know what I mean

I know what I was on, I had a Pilot Jones She took me high, then she took me home Pilot Jones, Pilot Jones We once had things in common Now the only thing we share is the refrigerator Ice cold, baby, I told you, I'm ice cold (ice cold!) You out here

Don't fuck with my love I don't wanna know that, babe That heart is so cold All over my home I told her she knows Take aim and reload I met this girl late last year She said, "Don't you worry if I disappear" I told her, "I'm not really looking for

Bringing together you and me Taking in that frequency, yeah Of the love that we should know Slow down pretending that you know Where we're supposed to go through generations Of just getting told, don't question the control Working on to buy a life before

Yeah we know all about you I won't believe a thing you say this time All them other girls told me how you play your game We know we know we know yeah All about you I know I'm better off without ya Even if you cross my mind I would always have to doubt

If, you don't know, who I be You better ask somebody about me Oh, you wanna be tough nigga, a look is enough I put that snub nose to ya and bust nigga And they'll tell ya I'm a soldier boy And I done told ya, over and over boy I, know, you, know I'm, on,

What's free? Free is when nobody else could tell us what to be Told my niggas "I need you" Through all the fame you know I stay true Pray my niggas stay free Made a few mistakes but this ain't where I wanna be Before I'm judged by 12, put a 12 on my V

You know I'd always come for you I'd lie, it's true By now you know that I'd come for you No one but you, yes, I'd come for you But only if you told me to And I'd fight for you Give my life for you As long as there's still life in me No matter what,
