Nothing Without You

(Verse 1) There's a war going on outside, no one is safe from Her silhouette when she blocks the sun And her hair when she wakes up, and it's not done And the laugh as she passes, it makes you numb That's my girl outside in the lobby Slanging my product when I'm fulfilling my hobby She was there before the Cadillac And she was there before the offer from Battle Acts And she was happy in my busted out Turasel It kind of makes me wonder why I rap so well I can't tell if she's helping me or hurting me Cause every time I'm heard her, it's like a murder me That's why I say (Chorus) I can gain the world, and make some money But it's nothing without you, it's nothing without you really See I can change the world, still be a dummy But it's nothing without you, it's nothing without you really See I can gain the world, and make some money but (Verse 2) Yep, she got a mini vacuum in the house Washing the car with one side of her blouse A house negro, doing the chores Just to make her happy when she comes home bored From UCLA, I brighten up her day The way I'm wearing my Kangol, make her say "Hey" Eric Sermon, life I'm learning Slowly burning, cook from turning like Roticery, it's so cute to see You walk in the door like (history) It's return of the half felt Third freak, third geek, on my top shelf So easy to see, yet easy to forget You collect dust while I unfold the check girl And I regret it cause (Chorus) (Verse 3) You met me at my mom's room I met you in Inglewood in my bedroom alone Listening to music, lost in my holocaust With the fuse lit, caught in a Molotov We used to talk when I was a kid I used to sing the songs that you trapped in my head Alone, but I'm all grown up now A poem, lost in a grown up child But you were there when I cried in my sleep When I heard my moms voice weep And you were there in the dark nights When I knew I had no one to call But I would fall on my own knees But now, so many times I pretend That I don't know you in front of my friends And it's some kind of wonderful Again and again Leave you in the back seat, til the weekend But I still hear you in my head Like when I was a kid That's when I? of what I did (Hey John, this kid knows you) (That's no one yo, that's no one, don't even worry bout it yo) (Chorus)
