Homeboy Lyrics

Homeboy lyrics

Coolio feat. Montell Jordan

 

 Homeboy

 Somebody that

 Exepts you for what'cho are

 Not what'cho got on

 What'cho can do for them

 If you lucky enough to have some then

 You know what im talkin bout

 

 Friends im a yellows happy

 And not that maby

 The chance of meeting someone these days you can trust is skinny

 But it seens that there really aint a damn thing you can do

 Cuz since the 70's

 It seems everybodys been rolling wit a crew

 A team a gang a possy or some type click

 And if your firm aint think

 Then your swab becomes bitched

 Be extra careful or the ones you call your partner

 Cuz what they really is is a busta out ta rob ya

 And where ever your strength has been

 Your guided clips and a

 Wolf and sheeps clothing

 Cuz some of yall aint knowing

 Me and you go back like roaches in the projects

 And we done been through things they still aint even thought of yet

 A good homie is hard to come by

 But most time you get done by the ones you trust most

 So i gotta make a toast

 To my tried and tested

 And strait up for reel

 Those pull yourself some x-o

 This one heres for you

 

 -chorus-

 

 I done fly one hell

 Walk on water

 But im damn sure your partner

 You can count on me to the end 

 Get a pen nigga

 You can call me homeboy

 If i gotta quater

 Then you gotta dime

 And you can call me up no matta what the time

 If you watch my back then ill watch yours

 Nigga you can call me homeboy

 

 Now i done met a lot of haters in my life time

 That i woulda smoked if i woulda had a tech-9

 But here i stand as a man 

 And im free ta say

 Im hella glad that my momma didnt raise me that way

 And the homies i grew up wit

 Locs i threw up wit

 Is the kinnda fools that you dont wanna buck wit

 Why does it seem that the good brothas die 

 And the evil brothas live 

 And prosper and multiply

 Faster here at sea to the left hand side

 Wont some many dirt for the homies that expired

 I hope you rest in peace

 And when its time for my realease ill

 Meet'cha at the crossraods dippin in the loll lows

 But until then ima keep my rolls slow

 My flow wont tite say rollin wit the flow oh

 This is comin from the one and only

 And like MC Shares said ill never leave ya lonely

 

 -chorus-

 

 Me and you is like family

 And everbody know that we go back to back

 And we go toe ta toe

 Comin from the west

 Where the sets run thick

 Where brothas eat the bang or try ta make a grip

 I cross my heart and hope die

 I never lie

 I run out on mine anywhere any time

 Me and my homies dont get involved wit

 That he say she say

 But if you lost you see to ass whoppin

 With your thing mystery player

 Decken like tekken

 So show some respect

 When respect is given to you

 And whatch out for the 42

 Fake curve

 And fool who got the nerve

 To pretend they was there

 When last month they wasnt even around

 Westcoast Eastcoast and worldwide

 My homies in the pen

 And my homies that lived and died

 Im still the same little nappy head brotha from the eastside

 And you can call me homeboy

 

 -chorus- extended
