Nelly - N dey say - album version / explicit lyrics

NELLY
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, Let's Go

Ha ha ha ha ha ohh and dey say ohh ohh ohh
Ha ha ha ha ha ohh and dey say ohh ohh ohh

Hold up stop now let me get a look at ya
Damn girl I ain't seen you since prom
Come to think about it I can't
Believe it's been that long
I heard your man locked down now how
Long he gone oh dat long
How the hell he get time like that?
Three strikes with possession
Aww he ain't comin back
He left you with 2 kids and bills all around
Plus you found out he
Had another chick cross-town

It's always the darkness right
Before the sun rises
And you gotta stay strong for the
Kids in their eyes and
Please don't despise and go
Against all brothers and
Have a hatred in your heart and
Take it out on another

I hate to sound Tupacish now momma
But keep your head up
But you gon' make it I promise
You keep your head up and that
That don't kill you only makes you stronger
And the will to succeed will
Only feed the hunger, fo' Reel
(Fo' Reel, Fo' Reel)

Ha ha ha ha ha ohh and dey say ohh ohh ohh
Ha ha ha ha ha ohh and dey say ohhoh ohh

I was at the gas station
And a man walked past
With his sign will work for food
Clothes or cash
And he asked if he could pump my gas
So I let him
Clean the windshield and throw out the trash
So I let him (Hey)

I even asked a brother his
Name, where he was from
Got kids man and what's their ages
He kinda stuttered for a second
He kinda looked surprised that
Anyone would even
Take an interest in his life
He said young brother dem the only
Words I done heard in the
Last year that wasn't no or get
The fuck away from herrre
How could somthin so simple
As general conversation
Mean much more than general conversation?
(Hey)
You could tell life had beaten him down
Like he was in the title fight and
This might be his last round
Sometimes the easiest things we
Take for granted
Until they gone, then realise we even had it
Fo' Reel (Fo' Reel, Fo' Reel)
Ha ha ha ha ha ohh and dey say ohh ohh ohh
Ha ha ha ha ha ohh and dey say ohh ohh ohh

I used to think that life had a plan for me
Until I realised life had to
Be planned by me, see that's the key
I only deal with what I
Can see cause over history
Mystery brought us nothin but misery
Man more people done died in
The name of the lord
Than in any natural disaster
Disease or gangwars
Before guns there was swords and
They was killin each other
And what's changed to this day
Still killin each other
Killin a brother while another
Mother cries for help
Man! we need to help a brother find themself
Feed em light 1, 2, 3
Hey! that's something every brother should
See and that's Fo' Reel
And that's Fo' Reel, and that's Fo' Reel

Ha ha ha ha ha ohh and dey say ohh ohh ohh
Ha ha ha ha ha ohh and dey say ohh ohh ohh
