It's that Faith Evans right here
Biggie Smalls, yo Faith you ready? You ready?
Venue after venue, I been through
Come up to the telly so I could bend you
Send you you to the store, condoms and more
Jealous females call you sluts and whores
Seems like yesterday we used to rock the show
I laced the beat, you locked the flow
Could it be my hardcore metaphor
Make sweat pour on the bedroom floor?
Open up the Lex door
Jump on in, I'm kind of tired
I'm a roll blunts while you spin
You twist up while I whip the bourbon
You teach me while I'm standing, learning like
You got your license, right? Alright, no swerving
Hair blonde out, Madonna style, like a virgin
Niggas see the ring, baguettes to death
She looking for a man, honey he just left
And I knew
I knew from the very first moment (is me king or not)
That you were a king fit just for a queen
And I can tell from day one you were for me, (I can tell from day one)
Who knew that this love would be the legacy
And I'm so happy to say that I know you
My whole life was changed instantly
And I was willing to play my position, yeah
When you made me your wife-to-be
You were right by my side
Through all the changes
We've been through everything
So far from strangers
You more like my best friend
My perfect angel
I rock through thick and thin
I loved you till the end
I knew from the very first moment
That you were a king fit just for a queen
And I can tell from day one you were for me, (I can tell)
Who knew that this love be the legacy
Grand Marnier increase the don strength
Two four-fifths within my arm's length
With a calm breath I say we got the flow
Throw Little Cease the keys to the boat
Tongue all down her throat, you know the routine
Got my dick large like Bruce Springsteen
I invite those girls that smoke lye
Keep it real with you
You keep it real with I
We be tight like frog's ass
Have you screaming, "Biggie, Biggie, give me one more chance"
I knew from the very first moment
That you were a king fit just for a queen
And I can tell from day one you were for me
Who knew that this love would be the legacy
You were right by my side
Through all the changes
We've been through everything
So far from strangers
You more like my best friend
My perfect angel
I rock through thick and thin
I loved you till the end
Sometimes I get caught up imagining
The way things could have been
And there's no way that we can press rewind
We can't go back, we can't turn back the time
No, no
No, we can't turn back
We can't turn back the time
No, we can't turn back the time
But we gon' always be together
Because, you know, we got a little shorty together
