 Intro: Ghostface

 Yeah  ohh yeah  this goes out
 to all the families that went through the struggle
 Yeah  from the heart
 It was from the heart, everything was real

 [Mary J.] All that I got is you
 And I'm so thankful I made it through

 Verse One:

 Yo, dwellin in the past, flashbacks when I was young
 Whoever thought that I'd have a baby girl and three sons
 I'm goin through this difficult stage I find it hard to believe
 Why my old Earth had so many seeds
 But she's an old woman, and due to me I respect that
 I saw life for what it's really worth and took a step back
 Family ain't family no more, we used to play ball
 Eggs after school, eat grits cause we was poor
 Grab the pliers for the channel, fix the hanger on the TV
 Rockin each others pants to school wasn't easy
 We survived winters, snotty nosed with no coats
 We kept it real, but the older brother still had jokes
 Sadly, daddy left me at the age of six
 I didn't know nuttin but mommy neatly packed his shit
 She cried, and grandma held the family down
 I guess mommy wasn't strong enough, she just went down
 Check it, fifteen of us in a three bedroom apartment
 Roaches everywhere, cousins and aunts was there
 Four in the bed, two at the foot, two at the head
 I didn't like to sleep with Jon-Jon he peed the bed
 Seven o'clock, pluckin roaches out the cereal box
 Some shared the same spoon, watchin saturday cartoons
 Sugar water was our thing, every meal was no thrill
 In the summer, free lunch held us down like steel
 And there was days I had to go to Tex house with a note
 Stating "Gloria can I borrow some food I'm dead broke"
 So embarrasin I couldn't stand to knock on they door
 My friends might be laughin, I spent stamps in stores
 Mommy where's the toilet paper, use the newspaper
 Look Ms. Rose gave us a couch, she's the neighbor
 Things was deep, my whole youth was sharper than cleats
 Two brothers with muscular dystrophy, it killed me
 But I remember this, mom's would lick her finger tips
 To wipe the cold out my eye before school wit her spit
 Case worker had her runnin back to face to face
 I caught a case, housin tried to throw us out of our place
 Sometimes I look up at the stars and analyze the sky
 And ask myself was I meant to be here... why?
 Yeah, yo

 Chorus: Mary J. Blige

 All that I got is you
 And I'm so thankful I made it through
 (repeat 4X)

 Word up mommy, I love you
 Word up
 It was all you, word, you brought me in like this

 Verse Two: Mary J. Blige, Poppa Wu

 I sit and think about
 All the times we did without, yeah
 I always said I woudn't cry
 When I saw tears in your eyes
 I understand that daddy's not here now
 But some way or somehow, I will always be around, yeah
 All things that I did from this to them
 Oh from drugs to being there
 Being down and out and I love you always

 Yeah, you say
 You see the universe, which consists of the sun moon and star
 And them planets, that exist in my space
 Like man woman and child
 You understand?
 We got to keep it real, and what reality and reality will keep it real with us
 I remember them good ol days
 Because see, that's the child I was
 What made me the man I am today
 See cause if you forget where you come from, heheh
 You're never gonna make it where you're goin, aheh
 Because you lost the reality of yourself
 So take one stroll through your mind
 And see what you will find
 And you'll see a whole universe all over again
 and again and again and again and again
 Heheheh, yeah heheheheh ahaheheheh
