Artist: CL Smooth Album: American Me Song: Call On Me Typed by: OHHLA Webmaster DJ Flash [Intro/Chorus] You're all I got, I'm all you need How you can always call on me Even when you're doin wrong You never have to fight alone I'll pick you up when you fall down Through thick and thin I'll be around Whatever the case may be Don't hesitate to call on me [CL Smooth] To get my momma fed up and tell me to bounce Still in high school, sleepin on grandma's couch Just a crack dealer, young hood lovin the street I'm on a mission and I will not accept defeat I'm just another kid lost with the most potential The physical is easy, the challenge is mental Will you make the right choice and clean your act up or make them itchy trigger fingers call for backup? When you get a second chance, few will get one Still with the love of your people adapt son You need to be proud of me, I kept my promise A mother like Afeni Shakur, Voletta Wallace Forever wantin their sons like grandma grieves for my Uncle Doc It's like nothin else can fill that spot When I was lost you saved me And all that real tough love you gave me, I can hear you sayin [Chorus] [CL Smooth] I'm so on top of my game and have it all Who would ever think one day I'd lose it all? Liquidate cars, auction off my castle We always stayed tight, now it all unravels My woman up and leave me, my kids in different states Can't rock tears cause I'm cold and my heart aches The world must think I'm at my lowest point now Stripped me down and show me who run the joint now But there you were when they wanna impale me Never out of pity though, never could fail me You knew I could bring somethin back to the table To see it all blossom like the flowers in April So if life is a tug of war let's keep pullin Cause behind every strong man is a strong woman When I was that lost you saved me And all that real tough love you gave me, I can hear you sayin [Chorus] [CL Smooth] Here's to the next Betty Shabazz, Coretta Scott King Maya Angelou, said she wanna be O Just like the Winfreys, pooches and all The same way you got my back, big or small You know the one they always said would be there for ya Jewelry out the pawn shop, stack for my lawyer When I was that lost you saved me And all that real tough love you gave me, I can hear you sayin [Chorus] - 2X to fade
