Been Around the World (feat. Ja Rule)

I been around the world

And gets nothing but love

For who I am

I thank my fans so much

And even though some may hate

Still I appreciate

All my friends and family (Yes I do)

That kept it real with me

I been around the world and back like what up

East side to west side, touring like what up

And even though the price for the house was so much

I still roll with them from the hood like what up

'Cause when it comes to being the realest, I'm sure 'nuff

I'm a straight-up industry villain, for sure 'nuff

And I can't satisfy some of y'all no matter what

And some of y'all cats are so jealous

Said, we living in a cold, cold world

Ain't nothing but fake faces, fake people, fake friends

Said, we living in a cold, cold world

Where there ain't nothing but envy, wannabes, playa-haters

Yeah, I know I need a hug, but y'all need a hug, too

'Cause God gon' judge me the same day He judge you

And even though we have our struggles, that's alright

You know we ghetto folks is gonna find a way to shine

Been around the world

And gets nothing but love

For who I am

I thank my fans so much

And even though some may hate

Still I appreciate

All my friends and family (Yes, I do)

That kept it real with me

Sometimes this world can be so cold

When you looking through the windows of the soul

I been looking to see the truth as it unfolds

'Cause I been around this globe and back

Enough to know the fact

Who loves me

And who loves me not

We do shit so hot

You could put in in red tops

And pump it through every hood, ghetto, and block

Until they heart stops

That's why they fiend for me

And I'm thankful for every blessing that you giving me, Lord

And I'm grateful for all the talent and my vocal accords

And all these haters, I keep shaking 'em off

Rubbing they face in fame

I'm sorry I changed the game

But it's mine and I can't complain

Rule and R. Kelly

Been around the world, putting it on women

And bumping and grinding these *******

But we always on time when a woman's fed up

And that's love, that's why they all fuck with us

Been around the world

And gets nothing but love

For who I am

I thank my fans so much

And even though some may hate

Still I appreciate

All my friends and family

That kept it real with me

Said my lyrics is my testimony

That's how I live

I had to get rid of a lot of fake homies

I've known for years

You see me on the TV sometimes, not how it is

Y'all gotta start learning how to separate me from show biz

When I'm rolling through your city

Show me love

And ladies, when you see ya boy

Give me hug

And though I'm not conceited (Right)

It's just my space, sometimes I need it (Right)

Said, I've got so many friends in them area codes

That I hand out them tickets when it comes to my shows

Ja, let's break bread together

Pray together

That we grow strong together

It's clear forever

Help each other through the stormy weather

Let's hurt together

Let's cry together

And even if we grow together

Then together, we'll make it better

Been around the world

And gets nothing but love

For who I am

I thank my fans so much

And even though some may hate

Still I appreciate

All my friends and family

That kept it real with me

Said I been around the world

And gets nothing but love

For who I am

I thank my fans so much

And even though some may hate

Still I appreciate

All my friends and family
