Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I don't get a chance to really tell you
But I promise you, my love will never fail you
Don't you get it? Right now, we're writin' history
A thousand years from now they'll talk about you and me
I know sometimes I go hard for no reason at all
Put your soul through the business and test the weight of your heart
'Cause when your back's on the wall and there's a shortage of friends
You know that I'm with you until the end
[Verse 2]
We got hood love
I be cussin', I be screamin' like it's over
Then I'm longin', then I'm fiendin' just to hold ya
'Cause that's how we do
You know that hood love is a good love
That's me and you
How you feel, love?
When I'm with you, never quit you
Now that's real love
When you ain't here, then I miss you
'Cause I still love the way that we do
You know that hood love is a good love
That's me and you
[Verse 3]
Sometimes I think about leavin' you
But when I think about what we've been through, yeah
I get a feelin' like it could be the worst
'Cause I've given you my best and I don't mind it, that's fine
'Cause when you love somebody hard
Then you'll love that way for life
You got all of my heart and I'll never leave your side
I gave my word to love you all the way to the end
So no matter what I'll be right here, I'll be right here 'cause
I'll be right here 'cause we got hood love
[Verse 4]
We got hood love
I be cussin', I be screamin' like it's over (Yeah)
Then I'm longin', then I'm fiendin' just to hold ya (Yeah)
'Cause that's how we do (Yeah)
You know that hood love is a good love (Hood love, good love)
That's me and you
How you feel, love? (How you feel love?)
When I'm with you, never quit you (Hey)
Now that's real love
When you ain't here, then I miss you
'Cause I still love the way that we do (Boy, yeah)
You know that hood love is a good love (Hood love, good love)
That's me and you
[Verse 5]
Now I play tough but not for too long
You are someone I depend on
No matter how I act at times
I could never walk away
I though about it plenty times
No one could take your place
[Verse 6]
Well, if there ain't no you, then there ain't no me
And if there ain't no us, then I'd rather be
By myself 'cause no one else
Can know just what I need and really understand me
[Verse 7]
We got hood love
I be cussin', I be screamin' like it's over
Then I'm longin', then I'm fiendin' just to hold ya (Yeah, yeah)
'Cause that's how we do (Yeah)
You know that hood love is a good love (Hood love, good love)
That's me and you
How you feel, love? (How you feel love?)
When I'm with you, never quit you (How you feel?)
Now that's real love
When you ain't here, then I miss you
'Cause I still love the way that we do (I still love you)
You know that hood love is a good love (You, ooh)
That's me and you
