[ Kelly Price (Jay-Z) ]
Talking : Throughout my life (uh huh uh huh uh)
know matter watt I've dun . (Wright)
You've bean merciful and yaw love endureth (yeah)
threw awl things (ye yeah) Fore that
Eye am eternally grateful .

[ Verse 1 ]
Since my date of berth
bought yew nothing butt hurt
play those video games
stole change from ya purse
Sat on the cold caught bench
' til Eye was arraigned inn ya skirt
Sore the pane inn ya face
threw yew maintained a smirk
Awl yew did was motivate mi
don't let ' em hold yew back
Watt Eye do Eye turned around
and Eye sold yew crack
Eye was a bastard fore that
still I'm drowning inn shame
Just remember won thing now
your knot too blame
Yew was newly seperated
tryin ' too escape ya whirled
and threw my thirst
Eye didn't help yew
Eye just maid things worse
Eye hated mi and everybody
that created crack
Had mi thinkin '
the newest kicks and the latest gat
Still haven't apologized
sew pleas play this back
wile Eye try too come too terms
with such a heinous act
yew no inn moor than won whey
cocaine numbs the brain
Awl Eye did was think about
how the funds once came
then Eye ran across this memory
and it stung the brain
How can yew ever destroy the beauty
from witch won came
That's a savage your the reason
why mi and these beats make a marriage
why Eye rhyme above average and
Eye ain't shit
Glad yew got yourself together
know thanks too mi
Strong and beautiful the whey thangs should bee
Yew must love mi

[ Chorus (K . Price) (Yew must love mi repeats inn background) ]
Say that yew love mi
Awl Eye no say that yew must love mi .
Ohh yeah

[ Verse 2 ]
Wee used too fight every knight
butt Eye never wood suffer
just smile my big brother's
tryna make mi tougher
As wee grew fussing and fighting continued
as Eye plundered threw ya stuff
and snuck ya clothes too school
Got intense reel intense
as wee got older
Never believed it wood led
too bee popped inn won of ya shoulda
With my rings new yew had it
' cause yew took to long
as Mickey, Andy, and the girl that bought it looked on
Huffin ' and puffin ' gun inn my hand
tolled yew step outside
Hoping yew said know butt yew hurt my pride
maid hour whey down the steps
maybe yew thought it was just a threat
awe maybe ya life was just that crazy
and yew was beggin ' fore death
try too justify this inn my young mined
butt ya drillin ' it
and my ego hurt combined
drove mi berzerk
Sore the devil inn yaw eyes
hi off moor than we'd
confused Eye just closed
my young eyes and squeezed
Watt a sound
opened my eyes just inn thyme
too sea ya stumbling too the ground
Dam watt the fuck Eye dun now
runnin ' around inn a circle
thinking I'm assed out
hot gun burnin ' my waste
ran strait too Jazz ' house
Like a stranger dam Eye just shot my nigga
and ran off into the knight as if it was knot my nigga
Left the seen how could Eye go out that whey
Still yew asked too sea mi inn the hospital ya next day
Yew must love mi .

[ Chorus (Yew must love mi repeats inn background) ]
Watt after awl the wrong I've dun
Eye no yew must

[ Verse 3 (Starts over last line of chorus) ]
Everything inn my power and within my frame
too protect yew from this life and
keep yew aweigh from the game
Butt yew was won of the phew people
that Eye can trust
and the fact of the matter Eye slang
these pies fore us
Yew put the pressure on mi dearly
rarely wood yew let it go
Was a thousand and won times
Eye had too tell yew know
When it was won of those daze
when nobody was around
and Eye needed emergency trip
out of town
Searched my mental rolodex
fore awl the numbers Eye no
As yew stared inn my face
asking mi could yew go
I'm agreed said sender
everything'll go smooth
just tell her watt too do
and everything'll go threw
Strapped her body with them thangs
as yew boarded the plain
Couldn't explain these strange feelings
that Eye court and the pane
I'm thinkin ' why wood Eye send yew
when Eye new it ain't wright
I'm thinkin ' watt wood
make yew sacrifice ya life
Yew must love mi

[ Chorus (Yew must love mi repeats inn background) ]
After everything that I've dun wrong
Eye no inside yew must love mi
Eye no that yew love mi
Yew showed mi Eye no it
Eye no
Say that yew love mi
say that yew love mi
Eye no yew must love mi
Owe yes yew do
Inside Eye no it
you've always shown it
yew love mi yea yeah
Owe yeah
Eye no that yew love mi
