Hey baby, I know you hear me (Hey, yeah)
I wanna tell our story (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
This might even have to be yours
Everybody sit back (You and me, you and me)
'Cause momma Mia got a story to tell (Hey, oh, oh)
And it goes a little something like this
Now you and me didn't have a thing in common
'Cause I was a quiet daddy's girl
And you was a thug with more problems than drama
Duckin' the laws and always facin' some charge
On the set hustlin' hard and tryin' to stay on your guard
Lord, how did we ever hook up? I'd ask myself
But then nothing really mattered but the feelings we felt
You hit the low belt and it came to them niggas
But at the same time, you knew the
Difference between bitches and sisters
I used to dig you way back, even though I played hard to get
Frustrated but at the same time you loved it
You never rushed it and put up with my teasin'
And smacks to your hands every time they start to creepin'
Sneakin' out to see you every chance I could
I knew this had to be love because it felt good
Just to see you do the simplest stuff like
Walk, talk, smile, even boot up
I couldn't get enough of being together constantly, baby
The world revolved around you and me
Reminiscin' on my first steps to womanhood
And how you kissed away my tears and fears
And laughed 'cause we could almost hear
My heartbeat, legs shakin', heavy breathin'
Leadin' up to ecstasy 'cause I was gettin' used to you bein'
Inside of me, moans drownin' out the pain in the streets
Whisperin', "Don't leave me," you called me your baby
Your old lady, your boochie-boo
Caressin' and huggin' and exchangin' "I love you's"
That's why you trusted me so much and opened up
Even told me all the things that you had closed up inside
Took me for rides to Texas and Florida
Tryin' to dodge the police and most of all the coroner
My innocence was long gone
If daddy only knew that I could break down and cut dope on my own
He'd flip, he'd trip out because I
Counted cheese faster than the bank teller
And didn't play you short, not ever, just you and me
The world was ours (And me, and me)
The motherfuckin' world was ours
Three years went by and it was all about you and I
I heard the rumors 'bout the others
But they couldn't come close to the
Love we had, even made you a dad
A shinin' star, proud, stickin' out your chest, passin' out cigars
Rollin' hard cash out the ass
But we have a baby now, it's time to think about some stable plans
So-called friends is gettin' jealous 'cause we comin' up
The grapevine say they talkin' 'bout runnin' up
And I'm scared, I don't wanna see you dead
I'd rather give all this up just to have you with us
But my pleas and my cries couldn't slow you down
I still see your bloody body on the ground
I ain't the same, can't sleep, wonderin' how it'd be
If we had've moved on and left this shit alone
You and me, a true ghetto love story
That ended so sad and left my child without a dad
This is for all the sisters out there
Who think being a hustler's woman only consists
Of champagne, material things, and money
Think again
Much love to the dead and all the ones they left behind
I bear witness to that
(No, no, no, I miss you, girl)
(You know you, you know you, you know you, you know you)
I miss you, I miss you
(You and me forever, I'll be with you)
You and me, oh, oh, oh
(I'll always be with you, baby, yes, I will)
(Our love will never end, never end, never end, no)
(You and me forever, forever, yeah)
(Oh, you and me, yeah)
