Lyfe Jennings And Lil Haiti
1st Verse: Lyfe
Feels like I'm in heaven…
Rollin' my 67…
Cadillac DeVille…
Bumpin' that old Sugar Hill.
Today I'm living proof…
Your worst fear came true.
I'm doing alright without you, baby.
I'm leaving all that darkness behind me.
Making changes in my life.
So when that sunshine finally finds me…
I can stand fully in the light.
Spread my wings and reach for sky.
I never felt so alive.
Kiss my kids goodnight…
Tell 'em Daddy's alright, I'm alright…
Chorus: Lyfe
Honey child, there's a whole world waiting on you.
Took a while but we finally made it through.
Go 'head, you can smile, now all that darkness' behind you.
Smile…Smile…Smile…
2nd Verse: Lyfe
Feels like I've been baptized…
Almost drowned but I survived.
She held me under for 5…
Years of my life.
But today I'm living proof…
your worst fear came true.
I'm doing alright without you, baby…yes, I am.
I'm leaving all those grudges behind me.
Throwing fear out the window.
So when these blessings come to find me…
They will have room to breathe and grow.
Let my blessings overflow and get my life under control.
So my kids will know, Daddy finally let go.
I finally let go…
Chorus: Lyfe
Honey child, there's a whole world waiting on you.
Took a while but we finally made it through.
Go 'head, you can smile, now all that darkness' behind you.
Smile…Smile…Smile…
Lil Haiti: Yes, yes…Lyfe, I’m back on the track wit you, nigga! Let’s tell ‘em how it is again!
Lil Haiti
A short while ago, it was me, Lyfe, and N-A-S.
Tellin you It Must Be Nice, to be so blessed…
Well, yes and no…it was nice, wrong woman, tho.
Unkeepable promises were made to ease my hurt…
But she was already happy again…what was my love worth?
Told her I wouldn’t ever love another…
And personally took it a step further.
I prayed and prayed, questioned if I wanted to still live my life.
But sometimes you get answers to your pained cries at night.
I asked for help with the pain and heart-ache…
The Lord sent me someone who wanted to be with Che.
Haven’t smiled and laughed like this in weeks.
Had a ruptured heart and soul, but she sealed up the leaks.
I told DD like that Breakdown where Krayzie say…
’I’ll be on my way, maybe we can meet up in the future one day’.
But that’s no longer what I need…
Because this new angel loves me, indeed.
Don’t get it twisted…254 is still my first true love.
But first don’t mean last…and I send my thanks to above.
She know who she is…Gabbie, s’ak pase, cheri?
That Carimi ring-tone brings so much joy to me.
So the point is…I loved, lost and cried…
A river of tears…that shit was so wide…
The length was a mile…
But The Lord was with me all the while…
And now I’m happy to say…a nigga can truly smile…
Bridge: Lyfe, *Lil Haiti
Blue skies…blue skies are calling you
No more teary eyes…no more crying for you baby
And I don't despise…you at all…
I thank you for the lessons you have taught me…
*Thank you…for real…DD, I’ma always have love for you, and we still friends. Time to move on, tho…
Chorus:
Honey child, there's a whole world waiting on you.
Took a while but we finally made it through.
Go 'head, you can smile, now all that darkness' behind you.
Smile…Smile…Smile…
