Yeah, 

You know I was thinkin, before I met you

I was on a life of, ugh life of destruction

But I'm a better man now.

I just wanna tell you baby, 



Chorus:

Shorty you saved my life

Don't run the streets as much

Cuz I'd rather feel your touch

Shorty you saved my life

Aint sellin dope no more, 

Cuz your worth living for

You saved my life



Gotta lot a love, for ya girl

Cuz you turned me around

6 feet under ground, that's where I was headed girl

On da block, with the cops

Tryin not to get locked up

Tryin not to get caught up

Tryin not to get shot up



Girl ya came, in my life

And things started goin right

I started livin right

At ya house every night



You were sent from above

Ya taught me how to trust

Ya taught me how to love

No more bein thug



Chorus:

Shorty you saved my life

don't run the streets as much, 

Cuz I'd rather feel your touch

Shorty you saved my life

Aint sellin dope no more, 

Cuz your worth living for

You saved my life



Gotta lot a love for ya girl

Cuz you keep it real like me

You pack a still like me

I'm hopin you feel like me



Cuz on a scale of one to ten

You get eleven girl

I'm in heaven girl

When is our wedding girl

I'm no longer now

No more bein wild

Help me cuz that ___aaooowww

Cuzz with my time

Couldve been on my back with no time to relax

I coulda caught a murda charge

Spend life behind bars

Although I've retired I see us goin far
