Brother Ali, Stokley, Phonte - I'll Be Around lyrics
[Brother Ali, Stokley, Phonte - I'll Be Around lyrics]
The birds still chirping
Bills all paid, baby everything working
Anything you need to see that
I'm holding you down
Hey Ms thanga Thang what's happening?
I've been all around world and
Forth and back again
And for you pretty ladies
Normally I sing a song
But every now and then I like
To do my rapper thang
It seems like lately you don't
Like the way I'm travelling
And all that's going through your mind
Is that it ain't the same
And even though I got you
Chilling where you wanna be right there
Still you're having Nightmares like Dana Dane
Well consider this
It seems relationships today can be
So hit or miss
I mean, wouldn't you say the same?
Cause even when I come home
To be your Clark Kent
All you do is talk shit
About them times I'm Superman
So whenever you get cabin fever just imagine
Yourself back in the club
With them Orangutans i mean them monkey ass
Niggas just hanging around
Maybe then you can appreciate
My swanger thangs yes sir
The sun still shines and
The birds still chirping
Bills all paid, baby everything working
Anything you need to see that
I'm holding you down (holding you down)
The music might stop but the party's not over
You my lucky star I'm your four leaf clover
Baby anytime you need me
You know I'll be around (I'll be around)
Ladies, I want yo to get
A manicure to this one
If you're feeling really good, I
Want you to, huh, exfoliate to this one
Haha, yes I do and if you
Feeling real nice I want you
To get a pedicure to this
One all my fellas, huh, let's go
I know them lonely
Nights get old and that bed get mighty cold
And the, weight of this family just be
Resting on your shoulder
You're a, Native New Yorker
Freezing to death in Minnesota for a man
Who almost always on the road
Woman such as you, she may wonder what to do
I know that possibility seem
Ugly but it's true
Now he's got his career but
It's me that's sitting here
And you just might miss that something
Special that just for you
Well, my heart long for you
When I'm gone from you
Just cause I'm not all up
Under you don't mean I don't love you
To the contrariety I've been
On every continent
Trying to spit and get it right
And get a house for you
That's why I'm globe trotting so often
I'm trying to put that glowing
Dot up in your horizon
Go to school, I pay tuition, new shoes
I gave the children with a little
Smidgen left so we can go shopping
But, if I'm so honest all that paper
Don't mean nothing
When comparing to your loving and
The care you give your husband
Wish I could lay up on your
Chest and hear your heartbeat
Whispering our name together as
We fall asleep
The crowd cheering as I close the show
If they only know you only let me
Go cause you adore me so
And understand that I'm a natural man
Got to be who and what I am
Girl let me stand next to you
The sun still shines and
The birds still chirping
Bills all paid, baby everything working
Anything you need to see that
I'm holding you down (holding you down)
The music might stop but the party's not over
You my lucky star I'm your four leaf clover
Baby anytime you need me
You know I'll be around (I'll be around)
