Why I Love You

(Chorus) (JZ) Picture if you will / That the throne was burning / Rome was burning / And I’m sitting in the corner all alone burning / Why does it always end up like this? / Something that we don’t determine / Same people that I fought for / That I fight for, that I ride for / That I live for, that I die for / Be the reason that these ni**as is alive for and they want me dead / But I’m so sorry but I just can’t die for you / But I can make em put their hands in the sky for you / We waiting for the fireworks like July 4th / Get fly more, get high more, cry boy, why for? / When the grief is over / Beef is over / I’ll be fly when Easter’s over / I tried to teach ni**as how to be kings / And all they ever wanted to be was soldiers / So the love is gone / Til blood is drawn / So we no longer wear the same uniform / F**k you squares / The circle got smaller / The castle got bigger / The walls got taller / And truth be told after all that said / Ni**as still got love for you (Chorus) (JZ) Showed love to you ni**as / You ripped out my heart and you stepped on it / I picked up the pieces / Before you swept on it / God damn this sh*t leaves a mess don’t it / Sh*t feelin’ like death don’t it / Charge it to the game / Whatever’s left on it / I spent about a minute / Maybe less on it / Fly pelican fly / Turn the jets on it / But first I shall digress on it / Wasn’t I a good king? (KW) Maybe too much of a good thing, huh? (JZ) Didn’t I spoil you? / Me or the money, what you loyal to? (KW) Huh, I gave you my loyalty (JayZ) Made you Royalty and royalties (KW) Took care of these ni**as lawyer fees (JZ) And this is how ni**as rewardin me (KW & JZ) Damn (Chorus) (JZ) Bussin’ at me, b-b-b-bussin’ at me / But I’m bullet proof, b**ch you can’t get nothin’ past me / Got body armor (KW) A ni**a gotta watch the throne (JZ) And I’m bussin’ back / So ni**as in a glass house should not throw stones / What do you do when the love turns the hate? (KW) Gotta separate from these f**kin fakes (JZ) Caesar didn’t see it so he ceased to exist / So the ni**a that killed him had keys to his sh*t / Am I my brother’s keeper? (KW) Only if that ni**a don’t creep up (JZ) Got a pistol under my pillow (KW) I’ve never been a deep sleeper (JZ) P-p-p-paranoia (KW) Cause the ni**a that said he’ll... (JZ) Blast for ya (KW) Is now... (JZ) Blastin for ya / That’s an assassin for ya (KW) These ni**as got a shot they’ll shoot (JZ) Please lord (KW) Forgive him (JZ) For these ni**as (KW) Not know (JZ) What they (KW & JZ) Do (Ooh)
