[Verse: Tupac]
What's up boo
Ha ha ha ha
Yeah
Another shady mission
Tricks
Like watching pictures in hazy vision
Tonight is love making
Take you any place you wish
Today we satisfy
Yesterday was stolen kisses
Blind insanity perfect pictures of me and my family
Not understanding the destiny, that they planned for me
If I have kids will I live to see em grow?
Though I don't know, I live the life of a thug nigga until the day I go
More broken promises, a sacred bond broken
I know I'll die alone, but yet and still I'm hoping
Visions of prisons, maybe I'll be forgiven
I know it's better in heaven cause being here ain't living
Close my eyes and see nothing but pain the world's crazy
Still look for a queen to plant seeds and have babies
Maybe I'll be the one, or just maybe I'm lost
You'll never know being cautious
If you play your cards right
I want to be the one who, who you can depend on who
Who'll be the one who'll be there (through the thick and thin)
Go by the water we will, be there till the morning
We won't, leave until the night and we will, be forever more
No one else can do
What you do, for me
Take me away from the pain, I feel, inside (I feel inside)
And it's gonna be alright, It'll gonna be okay
If we try, and take our time
Please baby, take your time
And we'll grow, trust I know
(I want to be the one who)
I want to be the one who, who you can depend on who (depend on)
Who'll be the one who'll be there (through the thick and thin)
Go by the water we will, be there till the morning
We won't, leave until the night and we will, be forever more
[Tupac: talking (Keyshia Cole singing)]
(Forever)
You gotta play your cards right (oooh yeah)
Can't be rushing like it's a race you know what I'm saying? (oh no no)
If you be patient, and you take your time (be patient baby)
And you finesse it
Nine times out of ten homeboy your gonna wake up with your breakfast in bed (time)
But if you rush (hey)
Then you'll just be man handling (it takes a real man)
Ha ha
Play your cards right nigga (hey)
Take your time (be the one)
Be patient (be the one heeeeeeeeey)
It's better that way
Ha ha
Play your cards right (yeah... yeah be the one)
(I wanna be the one heeeey)
I want to be the one who, who you can depend on who
Who'll be the one who'll be there (through the thick and thin) (be the one ooh heey)
Go by the water we will, be there till the morning (we'll be there)
We won't, leave until the night and we will, be forever more (oh oh)
Take your time man (heeeey... take your time)
Don't be in such a rush (in a rush)
Ha ha
You got to be patient man, be patient (be forever moreeeee)
Ha ha ha ha
It ain't going nowhere boy (nowhere)
Ha ha
Get some champagne
Bring some roses or something you know? (beeeee forevereeeeee)
Play some soft shit (know the?)
You got to be cool with it (take take)
You got to be slow with it
Got to be patient (ooh be the)
You got to play your cards right homeboy
You can't be rushing like it's a race you know what I'm saying?
If you be patient and you take your time
And you finesse it
