0:10baby,i love you,i need you
0:14you're the best thing that's ever happen to me
0:17nothing and no one would ever pull me from you
0:21even though there's an age difference,
0:23even though there's a difference in our social backgrounds
0:26it still doesn't matter,because we'll have it so special
0:31but now i'm saying this special thing go up in smoke
0:35right before my eyes
0:37nobody could tore me that you've been caught up in a mess like that
0:43oh no,not my baby
0:47and now you drop this bomb on me
0:51after all the things we've been through,
0:54the wonderful years and the hard times together we survived
0:58you know me,
1:01why,why didn't you come to me when you realise you had a problem
1:06no,baby,you don't have a problem
1:09cause you think you can sneak,
1:12that's right,you think you can get away with anything
1:15that's what that crack would tell you
1:18aha,yeah i know all about it
1:21you see i grew up in streets,i know what the staff can do to you
1:26one time is two minutes,a thousand is not enough
1:31you will sacrifice anything to fit the need
1:35you think i didn't notice the disapperence of the watch i gave you on your last birthday?
1:41what about the blue fox that i gave you two christmases ago?
1:46check john's account anymore
1:49oh,by the way,you got a call from your credit union,
1:52said no more credit,you reached the limit
1:55i can't even watch
1:57you see all is gone
1:59baby you got to make a u-turn
2:02can't you see what was happening to you?
2:05you've become a resident of crack city,
2:07and the price of occupancy is weighhhh to high
2:12in the meantime,we will have nothing,nothing,nothing
2:22is it the pipework we working on in？
2:25no.now you're telling me you wanna leave me
2:32why didn't you trust i love you when you realise you were in trouble,
2:39instead you chose to leave me,
2:41because you were afraid if i found out,
2:44i will be so insensitive and unforgiving
2:47and you will no longer be the set of my life
2:51you are my life
2:54and without you,i can't live
2:58now i will stand by you and fight these things with you all the way
3:03please,just don't leave me
