Homeboy (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Intro:
A homeboy is somebody that got your back
Whether you right or wrong
Somebody that excepts you for what you are
Not what you got on, what you can do for them
If you lucky enough to have some then
You know what i’m talkin bout

Verse 1:

Friends, how many of us have them
And not that many
The chances of meeting someone these days you can trust is skinny
But, it seems there really ain’t a damn thing you can do
Cause since the seventies, it seems everybody been rolling with a crew
A team, a gang, a posse, or some type-a click
And if your firm ain’t thick
Then your squad becomes vixed
Be extra careful or the ones you call your partna
Cause what they really is, is a busta out to rob ya
And, be weary of strangers bearing your god and gifts
And a wolf in sheeps clothing
Cause some of y’all ain’t knowing
Me and you go back like roaches in the projects
And, we done been through things they still ain’t even thought of yet
A good homie is hard to come by
But most times you get done by the ones you trust most
So, i gotta raise a toast
To my tried and tested, and straight up for real dose
Pour yourself some exol, this ones here for you, loc

Chorus: coolio, montell jordan

I don’t fly on air, walk on water (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Uh, but, i’m damn sure your partner (ooh-ooh-ooh)
You can count on me to the end (oh-yeah)
Thick and thin, nigga
You can call me homeboy (you can call me homeboy)
If i got a quarter, then you got a dime (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
And, you can call me up no matter what the time (ooh-ooh-ooh)
If you watch my back, then i’ll watch yours, nigga
You can call me homeboy (call me homeboy)

Verse 2:

Now i done met a lot of haters in my lifetime
That i would of smoked if i would of had a tek 9
But, here i stand as a man, and i’m free to say
I’m hella glad that my momma didn’t raise me that way
And the homies i grew up with
Locs i threw up with
Is the kind of fools that you don’t want to buck with
Why does it seem that the good brothers die
And the evil brothers live
And prosper and multiply
Pass the hennessey to the left hand side
Want some many dirt for the homies that expired
I hope you rest in peace
And, when it’s time for my release
I’ll meet you at the crossroads dippin in the low-low
But, until then i’ma keep my rolls slow
My flow on tight, and stay rollin with the 4-0
This is comin from the one and only
And like mc shan said, "i’ll never leave you lonely"

Chorus: coolio, montell jordan

I don’t fly on air, walk on water (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
But, i’m damn sure your partner (ooh-ooh-ooh)
You can count on me to the end (oh-yeah)
Thick and thin, nigga
You can call me homeboy (you can call me homeboy)
If i got a quarter then you got a dime (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
And, you can call me up no matter what the time (ooh-ooh-ooh)
If you watch my back, then i’ll watch yours, nigga
You can call me homeboy (call me homeboy)

Verse 3:

Me and you is like family
And everybody know that we go back to back
And we go toe to toe
Comin from the west
Where the sets run thick
Where brothers either bang or try to make a grip
I cross my heart and hope to die
I never lie
I run out on mine
Anywhere or anytime
Me and my homies don’t get involved with that he say, she say
But, if you’ve lost you’ll recieve a ass whippin with your instant replay
Or, deckin like tekken
So, show some respect when respect is given to you
And, watch out for the forty too
Fake curve
And fools who got the nerve
To pretend that they was down
When last month they wadn’t even around
West coast, east coast, and worldwide
My homies in the pen, and my homies that lived and died
I’m still the same little nappy head brother from the eastside
And, you can call me homeboy

Chorus: coolio, montell jordan

I don’t fly on air or walk on water (or walk on water, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
But, i’m damn sure your partner (ooh-ooh-ooh)
You can count on me to the end (oh-yeah)
Thick and thin, nigga
You can call me homeboy (you can call me homeboy)
If i got a quarter then you got a dime
(if i got a quarter then you got a dime)
And, you can call me up no matter what the time (ooh-ooh-ooh)
If you watch my back, then i’ll watch yours
(watch my back, then i’ll watch yours, yours)
You can call me homeboy (call me homeboy)
I don’t fly on air, walk on water (iiii, don’t walk on water, no)
You can count on me till the end (count on me till the end, oh-yeah)
Thick and thin (thick and thin)
You can call me homeboy (call me homeboy)
If i got a quarter then you got a dime
(if i got a quarter then you got a dime)
And, you can call me up no matter what the time
(call me up no matter what the time)
If you (if you)
(watch my back, i’ll watch yours, yours)
You can call me homeboy (call me homeboy)
(you can call me homeboy, boy, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(i got your back, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(you can call me homeboy)
(you can call me homeboy)

Homeboy (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

VERSE 1:
My home since knee high
We came up on the south side
Where you had to beat the street lights home
We got into some street fights
But the next day we be right back get it all
Wherever there was me, there was you
And we were like crew
Straight from junior high school
Then you messed it all up
Started pushing up
Kissed me on the cheek
And I fell in love

Shorty’s a little taller now
Into big things, he’s a baller now
His heart never changed
I can see he’s still down
I can’t forget him (No no no no)
More than his voice is changing now
All that I see is rearranging now (Now)
It just ain’t the same
Catchin feelings now
I should tell him (Yea)

CHORUS:
You knew you were the boy next door (Next door)
Don’t want to be my homeboy no more
Saw something that I never saw before
I think he wants to be my baby, baby
Been thinkin bout him all my life (My life)
Now I see him in a whole new light
Something about it feels so right (That’s why)
I think he wants to be my baby, baby

VERSE 2:
Every night when we get home
Undercover talking on the phone
Here comes my mother
It’s way too late
Might get in trouble
My heart can’t wait (So much to take)
Writing till my hand cramps up
4 pages saying I’m in love (I got a crush)
Can’t get you off my mind (Can you pick me up baby)
I’m sure I’ll be fine when I look into your eyes

Shorty’s a little taller now
Into big things, he’s a baller now
His heart never changed
I can see he’s still down
I can’t forget him
More than his voice is changing now
All that I see is rearranging now
It just ain’t the same
Catchin feelings now
I should tell him (Gotta tell him that I love him)

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Chocolate covered candy kisses
They keep me reminiscing
All I want is what your giving
Nothing like your affection
So in love and you’re the reason
There’s no more lonely season
Make me love you, drive me crazy
Think I wanna be your lady
(Repeat)

Oh-we-oh
Oh oh oh (Don’t wanna be my homeboy no more)
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh
Oh oh oh
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh
Oh oh oh
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (Why why why why why)
Now homeboy wants to be my baby, be my baby, be my baby
Oh-we-oh
Oh oh oh (He don’t wanna be my homeboy no more)
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh
Oh oh oh
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (No more)
Oh oh oh
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (Said he)
Now homeboy wants to be my baby, be my baby, be my baby
(Wants to be my baby now, now, now now now)

Homeboy (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

By ed sanford and michael mcdonald

He was born on the wrong side
Where hopelessness breeds
Where pride is hard to come by
And violence fills a need

Lord, what can the future be
Lookin’ from his point of view
‘cause here on these desperate streets
Better a short lived legend
Then a long life played for a fool

Homeboy wants to rule the hot town
And the innocent will fall
When the santa ana blows across the killin’ ground
It sweeps away what mercy
Is left to be found

A child on a corner
An instrument of greed
Seduced before knowing
The harsh reality

Lord, what will the answer be
Is there nothing we can do
To save him on these desperate streets
Better a long life of tryin’
Than a short life playin’ to lose

Homeboy (Letra)

You’re a late child, you’re a love child
It’s enough child that your so appealing
You’re appealing, you’re appealing
To a need that we all have been feeling
You don’t fit where you’ve been put
They’re so straight
Straight out of some book
Tried to fake it with a real man
Tried to fill your father’s size ten

Alone [living] in this world
You’re not a boy or a girl

Don’t let them wear you down
What a wonderful ego
You should be so proud
Far out is the life for you
Not just a life that you must make do

Alone in this world
You’re not a boy or a girl

Nothing is certain
Every things changed
More than just words
When it’s you who’s in pain
You hold the chalice
You hold the plate
Bring them together and see what you’ve made
Facing the future inside a cocoon
Feeling the control when you’ve been so abused
Alone in this world
Your’re not a boy or a girl
You’re not alone in this world
You’re not a boy or a girl
