It's a ghetto fairytale (yeah yeah yeah) It was two weeks before my son's birthday The D.T's ringing my bell (Ma'am we need to ask a few questions) They told me the raid would go down anyday And if I was smart I wouldn't tell (no no) It was all over him your My boyfriend the criminal He was caught up in the game And the FBI warned if I didn't go along They'd make sure I never saw my son or my boyfriend again (Remember this, you are a convicted felon on probation) But how could I just turn him in? (Ma'am if you don't help us, you'll never see your son again. Trust me) He would always tell me I know your afraid But you can't leave me now Lean on my shoulder Soon it'll be over I'm trying to build our future I'm doing this for us Your the only one I love The only one I trust I'd been with him for about 4 years and I swear He gave me anything I could dream (anything) But the life that he lived was a nightmare I swear Wasn't clean he was blinded by the cream All the murderous capers, the trips to Las Vegas Making millions from paper blood-stained (blood-stain money) Stuck in my head like a song, I saw every sin I knew every wrong And if I don't go along, I'd never see my family again no no no hmmm (So whats it gonna be?) (hey hey hey) (I know my rights) (One phone call from me and your son's going to a foster home.) (Whatever) (Answer the question) (I don't have to answer shit) He would always tell me (tell me yeah) I know your afraid But you can't leave me now Lean on my shoulder Soon it'll be over (soon it'll be over) I'm trying to build our future I'm doing this for us Your the only one I love The only one I trust It was Saturday evening, we were home watching TV He looked in my eyes I wanted to cry (oh) My son ran to hug him, he kissed him goodnight How could I do this, blooding do this? When I knew he would die FED's rushed the door, yelled 'everyone on the floor' My man pulled his 9 and started to fire He was a soldier of cause in a war he couldn't win But without him I'm lost So I stood by his side and went down with him Oh No no no no No no no nooo Yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh Oooooh He would always tell me I know your afraid But you can't leave me now Lean on my shoulder Soon it'll be over I'm trying to build our future I'm doing this for us Your the only one I love The only one I trust I know your afraid But you can't leave me now Lean on my shoulder Soon it'll be over I'm trying to build our future I'm doing this for us Your the only one I love The only one I trust I'm sorry...
