Full Song Lyrics
Verbal D
Chorus:
Most times I love you
But sometimes I hate you
Why you let them manipulate you?
I don’t know why, I don’t know why...
Most times I love you
But sometimes I hate you
Why you let them manipulate you?
I don’t know why, I don’t know why you do that, no...
Watzreal
Verse 1:
Common sense warned me ‘bout the way she was changing...
The rhythm to her life, was slowly rearranging...
She started gang banging, when I started hanging with her!
Hard to deal with the fame that’s with her...
Seemed like every guy knew more about her life than I did...
So I asked bout when she was a kid...
And found she was playful and smarter before...
When she was still young and her heart was still pure...
Before all the deals that she had to endure...
Before all the thugs that she had to endorse...
Before she felt she had to act bad to the core...
So I asked her, why don’t you go back to the core?
Trade in all the cash go back to the start?
Run to the fam, run back to their arms?
She replied, as a tear fell to the floor...
My life isn’t in my hands, it’s in yours...
Verbal D
Chorus:
Most times I love you
But sometimes I hate you
Why you let them manipulate you?
I don’t know why, I don’t know why you do that, no
I don’t know why, I don’t know why you do that, no
I don’t know why
I hope you don’t want me to leave you…
Verbal D
Verse 2:
I love you, I hate you, I’m always trying to save you
I kept my heart inside my words, So when I rap I can thank you
Feel the moments I gave you, In every song I would debut
To every person who came through, I showed a better world than they viewed!
Paid dues and made moves, Never did I think to play you
The only time I played you, Was on these new songs that I made you...
Took a chance to serenade you, Wanted to dance and celebrate you,
But you wondered off in someone else’s dream, And I forgave you!
What am I supposed to do? Give it up and let you loose?
If I let you go out of my life, then my heart begins to bruise...
Melody, rhythm I will choose, 'Cause your music only soothes
Hip Hop don’t stop, Never witness to your doom...
Every moment shall I grow with you, Make sure that you will bloom
Every moment that I wrote is, Shared beyond this music room...
Never doubt or do assume, That I wanna leave you soon
I’m just tryna give you life, That you deserve and not the tomb...
Verbal D
Chorus:
Most times I love you
But sometimes I hate you
Why you let them manipulate you?
I don’t know why, I don’t know why
Most times I love you
But sometimes I hate you
Why you let them manipulate you?
I don’t know why, I don’t know why you do that, no...
Watzreal
Verse 3:
Some thought she died, but that’s a rumor
She’s alive and well with clientele through the roof
As a tutor, schooling the youth on the computer
Or when she does a show with a group of new schoolers
Shoot, she just a good kid, in a mad city
Who used to kick it with me when we’d watch rap city
Talking bout Lil Kim, Lauren Hill and Missy
…Pac Nas, Jigga and Biggie
She told me, these just a few of the cats you need to study
‘Cause making it in this industry is, tougher than rugby
Ugh, its gets ugly most don’t play fair
But I know you going to make it getting played on the air
I told her, I’m so grateful for all that you taught me
And just like The Roots, I know you always got me
So I’m 'bout to be, taking this to the tiptop
‘Cause who I’m talking 'bout ya'll is Hip Hop
Verbal D
Chorus:
Most times I love you
But sometimes I hate you
Why you let them manipulate you?
I don’t know why, I don’t know why
Most times I love you
But sometimes I hate you
Why you let them manipulate you?
I don’t know why, I don’t know why you do that, no
I don’t know why, I don’t know why you do that, no
I don’t know why
I hope you don’t want me to leave you…

Thank you very much @krytonika. I appreciate that to the fullest, that's not the first time I have heard this comment of LL COOL J or Will Smith haha, it always makes me smile cause I do hear a resemblance in style, it's definitely not a bad thing, but in terms of content and what we speak about, there are some big differences for sure. Glad you enjoyed this song. I hope you find more gems to put to your playlist. I have released quite a few here and any feedback is appreciated.

hey @verbal-d - Glad Im not the only one with the LL comment LOL - and yes the content is nothing alike - that's not a bad thing though - you both are very talented in your own respects.. When did you first get into creating music - how many years ago - and what artists have most influenced you in your life?

Hey again @krytonika, yeah thanks for your words, it's definitely not a bad thing. I have been creating music for almost 17 years now and many close musician friends and family have influenced me but Tupac first inspired my desire to truly emcee on a high level, as well as Tech N9ne, Old school Mac Dre & Andre Nickatina, Common, Talib Kweli, Tribe Called Quest, Mos Def, Black Thought, Bone Thus N Harmony, post-gospel Christian DMX, Bizzle. Gemstones, Sevin, Will Smith, and a plethora of other emcees who were putting out positive conscious thought provoking music.

Thank you very much bro. I appreciate that. If you want me to send you the song just give me your email address and I’ll send you the mp3 file personally .

Thank you. Yea #4 ,that seems to be the community favorite. I'ma keep doing lil freestyle sessions to help promote our music videos. I think it's good for my fans(the couple i have) or people just stopping by, because they can feel like there are behind the scenes or hanging out with us. The first 2 freestyles we're kinda of weird to me, dude just showed up(i've never meant him b4) and said he could rap, but he had that real gang banging style of rap. I thought gangs were cool back when i was 14-16 years old, even joined one, but now i don't really see the reason behind it. It was cool to flow on the spot with someone new tho! I'll post my email below. Let me know when you got it so i can delete the comment. I don't want random people just emailing me LOL!
