Chico debarge - The Way We Live lyrics
[Noreaga] *DeBarge sings in background*
 Y'know what I mean? This for the woman, 
 Y'know what'm sayin? Coming up, just
 Trying to get a nut. Y'all really understand what we doing. Ya know? Y'all
 Understand that we hurting y'all, y'all come attatched. It's all good. This
 One for y'all, y'know what I mean? Yo, ya know? it's crazy. We all together.
 [Noreaga]
 I used to cut pies, in front of my girl, now I apologized
 The reason why: (My fault) she seen the red in my eyes
 When I was cuttin it, feelin like the archives
 Choppin it down, thinkin I'm, choosing my prize
 Never hit the street with out my heat, boo, told me not to
 Said, "Paps, we know the jake 'ill try to knock you"
 You do your thing, boo, I'll still be there, don't mean to knock you
 I know it's hard fuckin with a thug nigga like me
 Thinkin would I get locked?
 Come home tonight or not?
 Black Princess, kiss you when I see you
 White women suntan and try to be you
 The?Mellanin? in your skin, make it all see-through
 Sometimes he hurt y'all, not understanding what we doing
 Sweatin at the foul line like Pat Ewing
 Yo from all the brothers
 I dedicate to the mothers
 My mother, grandmother of the Earth
 If it wasn't for women, then it wouldn't be birth
 What, it's all real
Chorus [Chico DeBarge]
 We're just some thug people (That's what we are)
 That's what we are, trying hard to change the way we live
 (Change the way we live)
 But we can't take back, cause that's what we are
 Trying hard to change the way life we live
 [Noreaga]
 Yo, yo, aiyyo, you got chronic? You got yours, I got mines
 Lets get real high, light it all at the same time
 Stop holdin, (hold it up) babe it's your turn to roll it
 I used to spend time outside with my dime
 She be, rocking my chain, thinkin she shine
 Straight beautiful, yo, I'm really glad that she mine
 Kiss you on the forehead, cause yo, booChico debarge - The Way We Live - http://motolyrics.com/chico-debarge/the-way-we-live-lyrics.html
 This one for you
 The stupid shit I did in the past, I didn't mean it
 You know a nigga skinny, cause a nigga 'nemic
 But when you cook, the way that it smell, the way that it look
 Cause chef, plus you look good, that's off the hook
 You go to school to
 Sit back, or respect dude
 Work you part-time, spendin your time around mine
 I'm lovin you, that's why I wrote this rhyme
 Flying in to Bell Harbor, when we need to shop
 It's Cartier, Gucci, Gaultier, shit won't stop! 
Chorus
 [Noreaga]
 Yo, it's all good, I'm likin that two-hundred?stand me?
 It even flipped, when I was down in Miami
 Called me on my cell phone, Jones like I'm still home
 Tell me what your wearing girl, or what you look at pillin girl
 Step into my life now, share my world
 That's what I like about you, you got faith in me
 Be shining by yourself, with little lace with me
 The only thing I love more, gotta be the kids
 You got the real hair, while other chicks rock wigs
 I can remember back then, quite distinctively
 When you friends kept saying not to get with me
 But you couldn't help it, I know the both of us felt it
 The both us melt it, the both of us dealt with
 The rumors and the lies, your eyes on dies
 Is enough for a brother to cut off ties
 To any other chick I used to mess with
 Keepin it real, cause you the real one, that I wanna step with
Chorus - in background
 This song right here, is dedicated to all of y'all, 
 Y'know what I mean? Cause, 
 We know how we are, we know how we make y'all feel
 Sometimes. Knowing that we
 Ain't doing it purposely. We're just being the person that we are. Hanging
 With the fellas, gettin jealous, 
 Y'know what I mean?You know what it is. This
 One's for y'all.
 Word up. I want y'all to tell all y'all girlfriends about this one
Chorus
