Lyrics: Various Artists. I'm Gonna Be Alright.

Oh yes
Uh, this for you girl, yo

I took you from the projects, put the best clothes in ya closet
Like Ginger from "Casino" and now you a pro
We was like Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe
All ya jealous girlfriends hatin' waitin'
So I put the cars in yo hand, all I know is Nas was yo man
It was so real, boats and sixes
Special Japanese chefs makin' home cooked dishes
Plenty trips, invisible sets, you know what you missin'

It's funny 'coz for a while
I walked around with a smile
But deep inside, I could hear
Voices telling me "This ain't right"
Don't you know, it's not for you?
I always knew what I had to do
But it's hard to get away
'Coz I love you I just got to stay

You used to say I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And I know inside that I'm gonna be alright
I said I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright

Friends of mine say to me
Say you got control over me
You're not alone, I played my part
I saw the way you were from the start
Could I expect so much from you?
You had a girl when I first met you
Did the best that you could do
Now I realize I can't change you

You used to say I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And I know inside that I'm gonna be alright
I said I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright

Said I wouldn't walk away, some days I want to stay
But leaving you is what I need to do to be okay
I never thought it would be true, me living without you
So now it's time for me to make that move

Huh check it, yo nobody understands me, I'm dealin' with pressure
My peoples is locked in a jail cell with no bail stressin'
Guess it's the life of a kingpin, rap Stephen King, rock bling
Like neon lights, we gonna be alright
But it's like you feelin' lesser claim I'm actin' like a retard
Right me and my boys we start fights, well will I mature
You scream I'm in the streets all night
Or where was I at, ya found light brown hairs on my hat, I'm slow caught

You used to say I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And I know inside that I'm gonna be alright
I said I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright
