Can't Live Without You - Pretty Ricky

It’s 4 O’clock in the morning

And she ain’t feeling right

I’m on a first class trip

Through this place called life

I don’t know what to do Cause my body’s still shaking

I know it’s time to man up And start my education

I need someone to call on So I called on my bestfriend

I said Bro, I can’t take it He said Boy, stop tripping

So I hung up the phone

Packed my shit and got right

I know what I gotta do now

Be a man and face life

Maybe we could work it out

Cause you know I can’t live without you

And everytime I think about it I know a nigga can’t live without you

Ain’t no need to cry about it Cause you know I can’t live without you

I even wrote a song about it Cause you know I can’t live without you

At the beginning you was gone

I was staying wit my momma

I stayed getting in trouble, man

Straight damn drama

I started dancing so I stayed out of trouble

Cause I stayed in school, selling candy so my money doubled

But then you told me man, dancing was for punks

Then you told me come and stay

And you ain’t care what I want

You told me come and dance and rap wit my brothers

You taught me how to love and how to care for my brothers

And then you taught me all yo hustlin’skills

Just in case I get alone I know how to pay bills

You told me I was straight regardless of a deal

And I love you man for that cause you always kept it real

Now that I made it, it feel real good

Take you out the hood

Put you on B and the block in the middle of the woods

And as hard as it seems, you was there for me One bedroom apartment

On 1604 number efficiency down in Coverly

And even though I like to cheat

I’m going along my Geogria peach and that’s a promise I’m gone keep

To the end, never gone blend

And I can hear you tell yo friends

And I can see you wanna buss and fuss with yo brand new Benz

To the world, baby it’s yours

I’d give you the world cause you not no ordinary girl

I’m yo son, you my ol’girl

My momma, we shared for 19 years

And from the bottom of my foundation I’m telling you how I feel, and I love ya See, I fell in love wit ya Wanna raise my kids wit ya But you left me all along wit tears dripping down the picture

I remember the day like yesterday

May 9th, to be exact

I’d do anything to get you back

Even though I know you ain’t coming back

I’m serious as a heart attack

Could we get it back the way it was?

Cause I know you had some outside influences that pulled a plug

The reality, Junebug, girl I know we’ll always be together

I got you locked away deep in my heart, always here forever
