U Were There

[Hook: J Soul] I’m so happy that you’re there for me When I need someone to care for me Through the good and bad I’m so thankful that you bare with me Someone like you is a rarity That everyone should have… Somebody like you by their side When everyone else runs and hides You were there! And you still are! You are there! You’re never too far, never too far! [Verse 1: Substantial] You were there when I was digging thru the couch looking for change There, back when all of my outfits were looking lame It’s clear that without you around, life wouldn’t be the same Kinda weird like trying to get in the picture without a frame To hold it together I know forever sound insane When we’re separate it’s like trying to operate with half a brain When I needed peace of mind You would add a piece to mine Now my whole view of relationships has been redefined You were there when I was sleeping on floors but didn’t feel odd Without a home, would rock shows then use your meal card There, even when I got my first real job Here when I gave them my notice so I could focus… On this rap s**t, finally make a career out of a habit But you always knew that your man was flier than bat s**t Way hotter than that s**t But you kept me grounded You were there before the pioneers and artists I get down with Before I was surrounded by these leaches and these groupies When I would go on tour and leave you the keys that’s to my hooptie You never seemed too boushie or too ghetto But I brought the hood out you with a little Amaretto Which reminds me… You were there every time I said I’d never drink again There when I’m driving, while I’m vibing, I would need a pen You wold write my lines for me in the book of rhymes Sure the verse would be too gritty But the words would look too pretty Only you! [Hook] [Verse 2: Substantial] It’s like you were always there when I needed you to see me through Ride or die by my side like you’re shotgun in my vehicle Without a doubt I’ll be with you forever and a day or three Crazy as I am, you might be crazier to stay with me Everything you seem to do be crucial to our unit So the least that I could do is hold you down when you’re going through it That’s you for me, and me for you, don’t mean to sound so corny But to pretend like theirs anything realer than us is phony and you know me shorty [Bridge: J Soul] Oh yeah, oh… You know that We go back Like throwbacks We hold that My heart is So open So open I’m hopin’ We rollin’ Til times end Girl… Girl you know that my throne’s your throne Girl you know my house is your home And everything that I own you own Til the very end! [Hook]
