TP-2
Hit it hard from the back
Roll around on the front
I know you've heard a lot of tracks
But 12 Play is what you want
Just let me call the studio
Then we can go all night
Girl I hope you can hang
Cause I'm horny as hell tonight

One
Taking off your Secrets with my teeth
Two 
Slightly rough to let you know it's about to get kinky
Three
Blind your eyes, then I walk you to my bedroom
Four
Now open your eyes 
Surprise you've entered twelve play two

Stop
We need to catch our breath
We've been going for a while
It's been about two hours
And we're still going round for round
The water's getting cold
And the movie's going off
This is how we do in TP-2

Five 
I'm about to take you for a ride
Now feel it come inside
Six
Baby it's as hard as a brick
Tell me can you feel this sh, sh, sh
Seven
That's when to slow it down
Cause I'm not ready to
Eight
We're almost at the peak
Cause I'm feeling tingly

Now flew your body like, what (what, what)
It's like diamonds with the cut (cut, cut)
The hottest out of your friends
The way you take it from me
Girl you put it on me like draws
Moaning when you talk
I'm about to tear your shit out
New millennium style

Nine
Lookin' you in your eyes
As I'm about to do that thing
Ten
Then on down to your thighs 
I'm gonna make you scream
Eleven
Now put your body on top of me
I'm about to grab your waist
Twelve 
Now quick before we get to thirteen
Set it on my face
Strip for you
Hey baby...
What you doin'?
Well, stay there.
I got a surprise for you.
I'm on my way over.

Suddenly I feel like I wanna break loose
Jump in my six and come and see you
Girl, I'm gonna do something that's brand new
Umm, I got a kinky surprise for you
So girl get ready cuz I'm on my way
Put your sexy body in some negligee
And if you feel me, let me know it right now
Baby, this is how it's all going down

There'll be
Three knocks at the door, my baby
My trench coat hits the floor, my baby
Sit back in the chair, my baby
Cuz I'm about to go there, my baby
And get your body real open, baby
Do what you been hopin', baby
Tonight I'm gonna pull a switcheroo
Do you mind if I strip for you?

Now I'ma stop and get some gas, my baby
That gives you time to freshen up, my baby
And if you want, just leave the door unlocked
I'll be creepin' in 'bout 12 o'clock
So turn the telephones off, my baby
No interruptions while I'm driving you crazy
Girl, I want you to know tonight is yours
Start in the bed and end up on the floor

There'll be
Three knocks at the door, my baby (three knocks)
Trench coat hits the floor, my baby

Slowly rolling
For you (for you)
Whatever you want me to do

Girl, I promise
Will not regret

The greatest sex
From beyond this bed of mine I see
Ceiling fans with you on top of me
And the window blinds are filled with rays of sun
And all you secret fantasies thy will be done (done)
And inside of your walls there will dwell a Capricorn 
(that will feast your body all night)
If we keep this up then a love child will be born
All because
Of the greatest

[chorus]
The greatest you
The greatest me
We have found the greatest chemistry
The greatest touch 
The greatest kiss
What came to be is the greatest wish
The greatest show
The greatest song
The greatest words
The greatest all night long 
Baby your love stays constantly on my mind
This is the best sex I've ever had

I know twelve ways to make your love come down
And the secret places on you will be found
Like a voyage when the storm begins to roar 
There's no telling what this night could have in store (in store)
Cause inside of your walls there will dwell a capricorn 
(that will feast your body all night)
And if we keep this up then a love child will be born
All because
Of the greatest

[chorus]
The greatest you
The greatest me
We have found the greatest chemistry
The greatest touch 
The greatest kiss
What came to be is the greatest wish
The greatest show
The greatest song
The greatest words
The greatest all night long 
Baby your love stays constantly on my mind
This is the best sex I've ever had
[repeat 3x]

Something that happened out the day for the sake of our love
Like a hand and glove we go together this love is forever oooh

This sex is so good I've got to break it down
I don't mean it
Baby, oh baby
I know we had an argument and all
Ooh babe
And I must have said some pretty foul shit but
Mmm, mmm
I just want you to know that I ain't mean none of that
Baby, baby
None of it

Now I was supposed to be a man about it
Shoulda never left your side
No way, no how
Put too many years in this relationship
And it's not that serious for us to split
Now I admit sometimes I make mistakes
But still I appreciate the love we make
Stop at the door and put your bags back down
Now baby please can we work this out

Now I might say you can walk
(But I don't mean it)
And I might name call
(I don't mean it)
I may pull some silly stunts
(Uhm mmm)
But that's just a front, I don't mean it
(Now wait a minute hear me out)
Now I may holler at you
(I don't mean it)
And I may tell you we're through
(But I don't mean it, no, no)
May give you looks that can kill
(Can kill)
But it's not for real
(Not for real)
I don't mean it
(I don't mean it hey)

Now I was supposed to be more understanding
Instead of tryin to be so damn demandin
Baby I'm willing to drop my ego
And do the things I should have done and more
See I know that I can be a better man
Girl all you gotta do is take my hand
Promise me this time
I'm goin all the way
And show you all the reasons why you stayed

Now I might say you can walk
(But I don't mean it, no, no)
And I might name call
(Girl I don't mean it)

And I may tell you we're through
(Girl you should know, I don't mean it)
May give you looks that can kill

But it's not for real
I don't mean it
(Come here girl)

See I never meant
To break you down
And make you cry, make you cry
Oh please baby please

Don't you say goodbye, say goodbye
Sometimes I know that

Just a little bit too far
But yo my heart is good

I wish

I wish, I wish, I wish
To every city
I wish, I wish, I wish
Every hood
I wish, I wish, I wish
And every block
I wish, I wish, I wish
Good Ol' America!

Rollin' through the hood
Just stopped by to say what's up
Came to let you know
That your baby boy ain't doing so tough
And even though you passed
Going on four long years
Still waking up late at night crying tears
Just thinking about those days
You used to talk to me
Smilin' while I'm sippin' on this Hennesy
And remember we bragged on how rich we would be
To get up out this hood was like a fantasy

And now you hear my songs the radio is bangin'
Oh I can't believe my ears
And what everybody's sayin'
And boy I'll tell you
Folks don't know the half
I would give it all up
Just to take one ride

(With you)
How I used to kick it on the front porch
(With you)
And how I used to lay back and smoke weed
(With you)
And all the little days and party joints we'd do
Now I'm just missing you
How I wish

I wish that I could hold you now
I wish that I could touch you now
I wish that I could talk to you
Be with you somehow
I know you're in a better place
And you know I can see your face
I know you're smiling down on me
Saying everything's okay
And if I never leave this thug life
I'll see you again someday
I wish, I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish, I wish

Now ever since this money come
Been nothing but stress
Sometimes I wish I could trade in my success
Y'all look at me and say boy you've been blessed
But y'all don't see the inside of my unhappiness
Man I swear this shit gets heavy like a ton
That's why you hear me shootin'
This real shit off like a gun
Hmm I wonder how my friends would treat me now
If I wasn't iced up with a Bentley and a house
That's why fake ass niggas get fake ass digits
And fake ass playas get a real playa hatin' 'em
Honey Love goes platinum and y'all ass come around
But y'all don't wanna raise the roof
Until my shit is going down

And now you hear my songs the radio is bangin'
Oh I can't believe my ears
And what everybody's sayin'
And boy I'll tell you
Folks don't know the half
I would give it all up
Just to take one ride

(With you)
How I used to hoop off in them tournaments
(With you)
And how I used to club hop on weekends
(With you)
Your family called the morning of the tragic end
Damn, my condolensces

I wish that I could hold you now
I wish that I could touch you now
I wish that I could talk to you
Be with you somehow
I know you're in a better place
And you know I can see your face
I know you're smiling down on me
Saying everything's okay
And if I never leave this thug life
I'll see you again someday
I wish, I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish, I wish

Voices in my head be telling me to come to church
Saying the Lord is the only way for you to stop the hurt
Dreaming of windows black tinted like a hurst
When waking up to life sometimes seems worst
And all I ever wanted is to be a better man
And I try to keep it real with my homies now
For me to save the world I don't understand
How did I become the leader of a billion men?

And now you hear my songs the radio is bangin'
Oh I can't believe my ears
And what everybody's sayin'
And boy I'll tell you
Folks don't know the half
I would give it all up
Just to take one ride

(With you)
How I used to street perform on Friday
(With you)
And how I used to go to church on Easter Sunday
(With you)
Standing here throwing them songs at me
Somebody pray for me

I wish that I could hold you now
I wish that I could touch you now
I wish that I could talk to you
Be with you somehow
I know you're in a better place
And you know I can see your face
I know you're smiling down on me
Saying everything's okay
And if I never leave this thug life
I'll see you again someday
I wish, I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish, I wish

[Intro]
Yeah, like I was saying
I ain't, ya know what
I'm not tryin' to say things to hurt you
You know what I'm saying
I don't wanna hurt you, baby
Just sometimes you do things 
That push me to say things I don't wanna say
You know what I'm saying?
You know I love you
You know I care about you
This time, you just brought it on yourself
Yo, check it out

Now I shoulda been more man
About the way things went down
Especially since we been dealin' 
For like seven years now
I've been slowly, slowly bringing you down
No conversation, no good sex in a while
But still you search and find a way
To love me somehow
Even though I ride, you still trust me somehow
Got my faces, some ice and a tie
Slowly, slowly, slowly, slowly goin' down

(I don't mean it) When I hollar at you 
(I don't mean it) When I say that we're through 
(I don't mean it) What I'm takin' you through 
(I don't mean it) Baby 
(I don't mean it) Said I'm sorry 
(I don't mean it) Can you find a way to forgive me
(I don't mean it) Said I went to church this morning 
(I don't mean it) I don't mean it

Running around here talking about 
How I'm a big player now
Hidden in corners, blinging out our share
Kelly makin' hits now
Thinking about this industry 
And how I put it out
You were there for me 
When I used dish rags for ties
There's times that I didn't hear you
I was talkin' too loud
When I didn't come home
I was hanging with the crowd
Whenever we fight I try to win every round
Can you find a way to forgive me now

(I don't mean it) Cuz I don't mean it
(I don't mean it) When I hollar at you
(I don't mean it) Whenever I say we're through
(I don't mean it) Whoa
(I don't mean it) Can you find a way to forgive
(I don't mean it) Ooh baby, I
(I don't mean it) I went to church this mornin'
(I don't mean it) Ooh I don't mean it

[R.] Father, can you help me?
[Priest]What do you need from me?
[R.] I broke up with my girl and I'm feelin' kinda lonely
[Priest]I been watching you from Heaven, Kelly
You been so demanding
You need to read my word, son
And get some understanding
[R.] But I been busy with my music
[Priest]Stop making excuses
Recognize the love she gives
And try not to abuse it
[R.] Is it too late to get her back?
[Priest]Not as long as I'm a fact
[R.] Well father, show me a sign
That will make her mine

(I don't mean it) I don't mean it
(I don't mean it) Whenever I say we're through
(I don't mean it) Or whenever I hollar at you
(I don't mean it) Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
(I don't mean it) Ooh baby, ooh baby
(I don't mean it) See what was straight is now stone
(I don't mean it) Because I took you for granted, oh
(I don't mean it) Whoa
(I don't mean it) Whoa you should know I don't mean it
(I don't mean it) I put it on my life
(I don't mean it) Believe me I pay the price
(I don't mean it) When I was down and out
(I don't mean it) You reached out your hand
(I don't mean it) I've learned it takes a good woman
(I don't mean it) To raise a man
(I don't mean it) Oh, I love you baby
(I don't mean it) Oh oh oh I love you baby
I wish (remix)
Yo', what up, my n****
You know I was in the hood
I just thought I'd stop by
Holler at you for a minute
Pour out a little liquor or some'in'

N****, we done been through a lot of s*** together
From runnin' these streets to bein' down for whatever
And now that you're gone I got a whole lot of s*** to
tell you
Things I should've said way back when we was younger

Remember when we used to roll hand in hand
And now I'm trippin' on how I really miss you, man
And remember when you and me would say
We'd get up out this hood and everything would be okay

It's all good now (My n****)
We out the hood now (Mmm)
We had the same ideas, but not the same careers
We shared the same old laugh, and now the same tears

You were my homie, my sconey, my Roni
My n**** and never placed no b**** before me
Man, I sear to God I love for that s***
Why'd you have to get hit
Where was I, what time was it

You were supposed to get older with me
On stage, hands on shoulders with me
Coppin' them Range Rovers with me
Sittin' on thangs and smokin' trees

And if it wasn't for the will that God had made
I'd turn back the hands of time and take your place
Sittin' here sippin' on this Hennessy
Just thinkin' about how much you meant to me (My n***)

Even when you're gone you will always be my n****
When you went home I'm still missin' you, my n****
I'm feelin' like the timing was wrong, my n****
I know you're smilin' down sayin' carry on, my n****

Some times my nights can get long, my n****
Some times I feel God did me wrong, my n****
So I had to write a song, my n****
Just to let you know that you're still my n****

I wish, I wish, I wish (Oh, I)
I wish, I wish, I wish

Little son is lookin' at me like, "Where is my daddy?"
And your 13-year old daughter is mad ¡Rcause she
understands
Promised your mama I'd take care of the family
But she's so hurt, she turns away my helpin' hands

Damn, I wish your a** was here, my n****
To grow that gray beard and smoke that cigar, my n****
And we would talk about you gettin' up out this game
And you would tell me how it keeps callin' your name

(We used to ride-ride-ride)
Never afraid to (Die-die-die)
But some times we (Cry-cry-cry)
Askin' the Lord (Why-why-why)
They're tearin' down these projects

We were homies for like 20 thug years
Sat in church and cried the same thug tears
You remember when Vibe World Premier
How we used to share the same old gear

And remember when you and me would say
We'd get up out this hood and everything would be okay

(It's all good now) My n****
We out the hood now
It's so easy for folks to say, "Rob, just live on"
When I'm dyin' every second that you're gone
Nevertheless I try my best to be strong
Hopin' you said your prayers before you went on home

When we stood on these blocks and just shot the breeze
We'd slapbox dead in the middle of streets
And if a fight broke out, you would take up for me
You're all I have left of these ghetto memories

I wish, I wish, I wish (Oh, I)
I wish, I wish, I wish

Uh, uh, yo' dog, I can't explain how I miss you
We stayed together, coppin' cane, poppin' pistols
I miss you most
Puttin' the doo rag over your bean head
Even out the hood on the scene you brag (Whoa)
Comin' up off the fiends for bags
Runnin' up out the cleaners, drag
You was the closest n**** I had
Look how we stayed aces
Hustled, made big faces
I wish we could trade places
F*** givin' you ice, I'd rather give you life
And the things that I had, I'd give you twice (Oh,
yeah)

So what the deal, my n****, I know you holdin' it down
If you could see me you would say I'm talkin' soft
right now
But it's hard for me to see when I'mma see you again
And I know it's f***ed up, I gotta talk through this
pen
But you'd died for the love of the dough
The love of the block, 16 you was runnin' the spot
Boy, your mama used to hate how we stood on the curb
Hangin' with wild thug n****s, smokin' the herb (Mmm,
hmm, hmm)
I'm gonna keep pourin' this liquor and that's my word
This here is for n****s that be flippin' them birds
(Oh)
Word up!

Even though you know you will always be my n****
(Whoa...whoa...oh...oh..)
Even though you're gone you will also be my n****
I'm feelin' like the time when I'm high, my n**** 

I'm feelin' like time
I'm strung out, sayin', "Radio, please don't take the
n**** out this song
Let it play on, go on, on
So I had to write this song, my n****
Just to let you know that you're still my n****
Feelin' on yo booty
[1] - This is my song for real, no doubt
Said the DJ's making me feel it out
As I walk you to the dance floor
We begin to dance slow
Put your arms around me
I'm feelin' on your booty

Hey pretty mama how you doing?
Said I'm just in town for the weekend
Looking for a little trouble to get into
Baby tell me what you're drinking
And I got you, ooh

Playas wanna play
Ballers wanna ball
Rollers wanna roll
But I'm taking off after I dance, oh yeah

[Repeat 1 (2x)]

Now you're body's got me feelin' like spending
With a backroom I could come to live in
And your hair weave looking kind of pretty
The way you back it up on me baby
God have mercy

Playas wanna play
Ballers wanna ball
Rollers wanna roll
But I'm taking off after I dance, yeah

[Repeat 1 (2x)]

If it's your birthday
Then put your hands up
You wanna get drunk
Then put your hands up
And if you got some cash
Then put your hands up
Have your own job
Put your hands up

Playas wanna play
Ballers wanna ball
Rollers wanna roll
Feel so good, say it again
Playas wanna play
Ballers wanna ball
Rollers wanna roll
But I'm taking off after I dance, oh yeah

[Repeat 1 till end]
[R. Kelly harmonizes "booty" during the vamp]
The storm is over now
I was in a tunnel
And couldn't see the light
And whenever I'd look up
I couldn't see the sky
Sometimes when I'm standin'
It seems like I done walked for miles
And my heart could be cryin'
Dead in the middle of a smile

But then I climbed the hills
And saw the mountains
I hollered help 'cause I was lost
Then I felt the strong wind
Heard a small voice sayin'

The storm is over
(The storm is over now)
And I can see the sunshine
(Somewhere beyond the clouds)
I feel Heaven, yeah
(Heaven is over me)
Come on and set me free, whoa

Now in the midst of my battle
All hope was gone
Downtown in a rushed crowd
And felt all alone
And every now and then
I felt like I would lose my mind
I've been racin' for years
And still no finish line, oh

But then I climbed the hills
And saw the mountains (Mountains)
I hollered help 'cause I was lost
Then I felt the strong wind
And then a small voice sayin'

The storm is over
(The storm is over now)
And I can see the sunshine
(Somewhere beyond the clouds)
I can feel Heaven, yeah
(Heaven is over me)

Come on and set me free

Somehow my beginning stepped right in (Right in)
Then faith became my friend (My friend)
And now I can depend
On the voices of the wind
When it's sayin' (Sayin')

The storm is over
(The storm is over now)
And I can see the sunshine
(Somewhere beyond the clouds)
I can feel Heaven, yeah
(Heaven is over me)

Won't you come and set me free
Won't you set me free

The storm is over
(The storm is over now)
And I can see the sunshine
(Somewhere beyond the clouds)
I can feel Heaven, yeah
(Heaven is over me)
Won't you come and set me free

[Ad lib until fade]
The world's greatest
I am a mountain 
I am a tall tree 
Ohhh, I am a swift wind 
Sweepin' the country 
I am a river 
Down in the valley 
Ohhh, I am a vision 
And I can see clearly 
If anybody asks u who I am 
Just stand up tall look 'em in the Face and say 

[Chorus] 
I'm that star up in the sky 
I'm that mountain peak up high 
I made it 
I'm the worlds greatest 
And I'm that little bit of hope 
When my backs against the ropes 
I can feel it mmm 
I'm the worlds greatest 

I am a giant 
I am an eagle 
I am a lion 
Down in the jungle 
I am a marchin' band 
I am the people 
I am a helpin' hand 
And I am a hero 
If anybody asks u who I am 
Just stand up tall look 'em in the Face and say 

[Chorus] 
I'm that star up in the sky 
I'm that mountain peak up high 
I made it 
I'm the worlds greatest 
And I'm that little bit of hope 
When my backs against the ropes 
I can feel it 
I'm the worlds greatest

If I could turn back the hands of time

Never knowing I'd be singing this song some day
And now I'm sinking sinking to rise no more
Ever since you closed the door

CHORUS

If I could turn, turn back the hands of time
Then my darling you, you'd still be mine
If I could turn, turn back the hands of time
Then my darling you'd still be mine

Funny, funny how time goes by
And blessings are issed in the wink of an eye
Why oh why oh why should one have to go on suffering
When everyday I plead please come back to me

CHORUS

And you had enough love for the both of us
But I, I did your wrong I admit I did
But now I'm facing the rest of my life alone

CHORUS

I'd never hurt you (If I could turn back)
Never do your wrong (if I could turn back)
And never leave your side (If I could turn back)
If I could turn back the hands of time

There'll be nothing I wouldn't do for you (If I could turn back)
Forever honest and true to you (If I could turn back)
If you accept me back in your heart, I love you
If I could turn back the hands

I'm going down yes I am (if I could turn)
Down on my bended knee yeah (If I could turn)
And I'm gonna be right there until you return to me
If I could turn back the hands

(If I could turn back) if I could turn back that little clock on the wall
(If I could turn back) Then I'd come to realize how much I love you,
love you, love you, love you, love you
If I could turn back the hands of time

Give my life for my brother
See I'm a bad mother SHUT YOUR MOUTH
(I'm a bad man)v Go on, go on, go on, go on...

Just a touch

I was on my way
To getting close to you
Until you flipped the script on me
Another personality
I was just that close
To putting karats in your ring
Until I peeped your card
Now you threw it before you started baby

I was just a touch away
From playing the fool for you
Till you lost my trust
And now I got to back this thing on up
I was just a touch away
From playing the fool for you
Till you lost my trust
And now I got to back this thing on up, babe

You were almost in
About to take you home with me
Until you opened up my eyes
And showed me your other side
You were inches from the room
Just about to take control
Now that I know it was all an act
I gots to get that bracelet back

I was just a touch away
From playing the fool for you
Till you lost my trust
And now I got to back this thing on up
I was just a touch away
From playing the fool for you
Till you lost my trust
And now I got to back this thing on up, babe

What made you think you could lie to me?
Baby and get away with it
Come back down to reality
When it comes to love you just don't get it

I was just a touch away
From playing the fool for you
Till you lost my trust
And now I got to back this thing on up
I was just a touch away
From playing the fool for you
Till you lost my trust
And now I got to back this thing on up, babe

Having never lived like a lap full of g's
When all the time you was just try-na trap me
Closer, and closer, and closer to me
Trying to get rooted like the ground and trees
Now I wanna get tight like the harmonies
All you wanna do is just scheme, scheme, scheme
Riding in my gators sittin' on my things
Drinking and smoking up all my weed

I was just a touch away
From playing the fool for you
Till you lost my trust
And now I got to back this thing on up
I was just a touch away
From playing the fool for you
Till you lost my trust
And now I got to back this thing on up, babe

Up and outta here

I was so wrapped up in
All of the finer things
That I never took the time to show you
What you meant to me
Money, cars, and ice
Blingin' off the clothes
I thought that I was hot
Until you turned cold
How could my success?
Go and deceive me
If I could turn it all back
Then all of this would be a dream to me

(Ooh, ooh)
Oh, hmm
(Ooh, ooh)
Baby, baby
If you saw me in church on Sundays
You could tell
I've learn my lesson well

Never said a prayer
(Oh like this)
Never shed a tear
(Until it was you I missed)
Never fell in love
Like a bottomless pit
I was so, so tough
Till you were up and outta here

My pride had me thinking
That being with me
You were blessed
Funny how you could ask for so little
And receive less
All of the fussing and fighting
Cause I was always gone
And even though I gave you a lame excuse
You still hung on
Oh I don't blame you for leaving me
But if I could turn it all back
This would be a dream to me

(Ooh, ooh)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Ooh, ooh)
Baby, baby, baby
If you could see me in church on Sundays
You would say I've learned my lesson well

Never said a prayer
(Never said a prayer like this no, no)
Never shed a tear
(Until it was you I missed)
Never fell in love
Like a bottomless pit
I was so, so tough
Till you were up and outta here

Never said a prayer
(Said a prayer like this baby)
Never shed a tear
(Until it was you I missed)
Never fell in love
Like a bottomless pit
I was so, so tough
Till you were up and outta here

Never said a prayer
(Said I never said a prayer like this no, no)
Never shed a tear
(To tough to shed a tear ooh baby)
Never fell in love
(They could take all my positions hey)
Never said a prayer
(Because love taught me a lesson baby, oh, oh)
Never shed a tear
(See I've got to have you back)
Never fell in love
(See I've got to have you back)
(See I've got to have you back)
Never said a prayer
(See I've got to have you back)
(See I've got to have you back)
Never shed a tear
(Got to have you, got to have you)
(Got to have you, got to have you)
Never fell in love
(Got to have you, got to have you)
(Got to have you, got to have you)
(Got to have you, hey oh)
Never said a prayer
Never shed a tear
Never fell in love

Gotham city (remix)
[R. Kelly]
Gotham City for the ghetto, ghetto...
Gotham City for the ghetto, ghetto...

[R. Kelly talking]
Uh yo yo, everybody's talkin' about the good ol' days, the good ol' days
Everybody's talkin' about the good ol' days (I remember)
Ha, I remember when me and my brother used to sit up on the porch
In the summertime and just talk about.. just makin' it
Know what I'm sayin' bein' successful and followin' after dreams
And uh.. I believe that's every kids dream, ya know what I'm sayin'
To rise and be somebody but damn sometimes we just get caught up...

[Verse 1: R. Kelly]
I ain't got no money and I ain't got no friends
Looks like my world is comin' to an end
No food on the table, no clothes on my back
No shoes on my feet and I just barely gotta used Cadillac
Now ain't that ghetto for ya
But some how it's got to change yeah, ghetto for ya
So I took this remix and rearranged Gotham City, city of love
(City of love), a city of peace for everyone of us (For everyone of us)
Cause we all need it, can't live without it (Can't live without it)
Gotham City for the ghetto, yeah

[Verse 2: Strings]
Gotham City for the ghetto, that's what I'm talkin' about...
Ghetto fabulous, to a nigga health be hazardous
If you wanna test wrath in us, for the respect
S-T-R-I-N-G-S, yes, fuck the rest
Give me the best, why should I have to settle for less
When I could push V-12's in finesse
Wha-wha whew and all that mess
You can try to hold me back but I
Keep on truckin' till I hit the sky
Even if you wanted to ya can't deny
Gotta feed baby girl, do or die

[Verse 3: R. Kelly]
We keep talkin' about escalating (Escalating), well who's gonna go first
Guess I'll be the one to step up
If you don't follow me it would be the worst
Every time something goes down, somebody's cryin' ghetto tears
Hope I'm not rainin' on your parade
But this is not what's keepin' it real is, now ain't that ghetto for ya
But some how it's got to change yeah, ghetto for ya
So I took this remix and rearranged a Gotham City
City of love (Uh huh, uh, huh, uh huh)
A city of peace, for every one of us, oh yeah (That's right)
Cause we all need it, can't live without it, oh yeah yeah
A Gotham City for the ghetto

[Verse 4: Strings]
Uh, uh, uh check it out
Now motherfucker wanna act surprised
Cause you afraid to change and scared to rise
That's why ya ass gettin' left behind
Nigga outta sight, nigga outta mind
Cause ain't nobody gonna stop the dream
Talk that shit, lock my cream
Negativity ya got to let it go
Havin' Gotham City free ya soul

[R. Kelly]
And we all need it, hey hey hey
Gotham City for the ghetto (Gotham City for the ghetto)
Yeah (That's right) uh hmmm
Callin' on Heaven
Send yo love down to the ghetto, uh hmm
Talkin' about a land where, oh yeah
Where there will be no more cryin'
No more cryin' no, oh yeah
A place where we can all just get along, yeah
And children will sing ghetto love songs (Sing y'all and smile)
And a land where, city of love
And a land where, for every one of us
