For You Songtext
von Guru

Dedicated to all my peeps
Who looked out over the years
KnawhatI′msayin? This one's for you

For you, dedicated true
I′m doin' this one for you
For you, dedicated true
I'm doin′ this one for you

To my moms and my pops, I′m glad you stayed together
I don't know too many people to demonstrate true love better
Nowadays kids don′t have anyone
But you were there and determined, to make me get plenty done

Yes, to achieve although a lot of times I hurt you
But I'm matured now, I′m showin' you my true virtue
As I deliver to you, an oath of never ending love
Admiration and respect, for there is nothing above

A mother′s strength and a father's concern
There was guidance, no matter which way I turned
Yo pops, if I could be half the man you are I'd be a star
Moms thanks for pushin′ me real far


As I proceed through the tundra, and harsh winds
I think reviewin′ what you've instilled within
So I′m takin' time out to let you know
Once a boy now a man thanks for helpin′ me grow

For you, dedicated true
I'm doin′ this one for you
For you, dedicated true
I'm doin' this one for you

For you, dedicated true
I′m doin′ this one for you
For you, dedicated true
I'm doin′ this one for you

Goin' out to my peoples, for all the times we′ve spent
Fifty deep up in the party gettin' crazy stupid bent
Around the block puffin′ lye, cruisin' in the car
Whatever we was doin' I won′t forget it baby pah

When I had no dough, you were there
You hooked me with some ends, to show me that you cared
You stood by me through the ups and downs
While the other fakin′ clowns tried to start hangin' around


See you were always genuine
That′s why respect is due, and I got you on my mind
A lot of people might not understand the way we click
We're rollin′ thick, hittin' harder than a ton of bricks

With all the drama and the phony personas
I′d rather check my man so we can share some knowledge
If the streets were college, some MC's would flunk out
Sendin' shouts to my peeps, crazy love no doubt

For you, dedicated true
I′m doin′ this one for you
For you, dedicated true
I'm doin′ this one for you

A true friend kid, is mad, mad rare
Trustin' others is a risk, a lot of things ain′t fair
'Cause where I be at, a lot of strange things happen, Jack
You can know a kid for years and still he′ll stab you in the back

But that's alright, 'cause I′m a good judge of character
And me and my family, we maintain the balance to
Master the challenges of life
Like the chain and the star, we link up to shine mad bright

To all my boys way across the country
Dealin′ with the struggle, the good, the bad and the ugly
Yo under pressure we're the best
No matter what the circumstance, no matter how much stress

Our force has the power to bring forth change
I′d rather see us succeed than feel shame or go insane
Dedicated to my fam that supported
You shall always, I said always be applauded

For you, dedicated true
I'm doin′ this one for you
For you, dedicated true
I'm doin′ this one for you

For you, dedicated true
I'm doin' this one for you
For you, dedicated true
This one goes out to you

For you, for you, for you
