Lord Knows - Chris Rivers, Dyce Payne

Can we kick it?

Huh

I learned to tell the difference between smilin' and just grinnin'

Between livin' and existin'

You been out here on a mission (what's that?)

Single mother 'cause that motherfucker up and left

He had a shot and now you miss him (why?)

You might turn up and go to a party

But you can’t 'cause your kid is still learnin' to potty

How unfortunate

Father ain’t around like orphanage

Ironic 'cause your daddy wasn’t there to teach his daughter shit

Same predicament

Say the pain is infinite

Cry into your own hands 'cause no man is intimate

Words of a broken heart

Heard scorned and highly jaded

Highly faded, broken that faith, rollin' them Bible pages

Kinda take it as a lose-lose scenario

But your baby’s smilin' and hell, trust me, she really know

Went and had a baby from getting around

And hail Mary ain’t reaching the clouds

How the ghetto ain’t hearing it now

Lord knows what you do for love

Went and had a baby from getting around

And hail Mary ain’t reaching the clouds

How the ghetto ain’t hearing it now

Lord knows what you do for love

Plottin' for prostitution

Diapers and box of juices

That’s what your body’s worth?

A new crib won’t stop the nuisance

Hope you hang around and show her what this life is

Don’t concern yourself with prices 'cause your presence here is priceless

My mama had no money, 3 kids

No home or drive

No cars, all rise

All love, no charge

COs and exes

No bars, no license

To make me feel like I’m a star

Baby, you just go hard

You don’t need no Goyard

You just need to go yard

Extra miles, extra smiles

Extra hearts, extra time

Young Simba, no Mufasa

But my mama gave me so much extra pride, I’ll never die

Feelin' like I missed out just 'cause that nigga missin'

Don’t mean so never miscount

All she need is one love

One heart, one soul

All she really need is one mama

And the story of a triumph, let it unfold

Went and had a baby from getting around

And hail Mary ain’t reaching the clouds

How the ghetto ain’t hearing it now

Lord knows what you do for love

Went and had a baby from getting around

And hail Mary ain’t reaching the clouds

How the ghetto ain’t hearing it now

Lord knows what you do for love

Lord knows what you do for love

Lord knows what you do for love

Lord knows what you do for love

Lord knows what you do for love

Lord knows what you do for love

Lord knows what you do for love

Lord knows what you do for love

Lord knows what you do for love
