Nothin to somethin


[intro]
Hey, what's up?
I wanna dedicate this one
To all my ballers, shot callers, ha
You know how we do
We turned nothing into something

from the south side to the east side
from the ghetto to the high rise
Look at how we livin' now, oh yeah
Check out how we livin'now, oh

from the hooptie to the benz-o
from the greyhound to the limo
That's how we rollin' girl, oh yeah
Look at how we rollin' now, oh

We took nothing
And turned it into something
We took nothing
And turned it into something
Turned it into something

Check it out
from the iced tea to the cristal
from the swap meet to the big mall
That's how we ballin' girl
Check out how we ballin' now, yeah

from sexin' to making love
from protection to no glove
That's how we're making babies now
A little g, look just like me, hey can't you see?

Repeat 1

I ain't never gonna leave you girl
I ain't never gonna go nowhere
I ain't never gonna hurt you girl
I ain't never gonna beat you girl

And I ain't never gonna let you down
I ain't never gonna make you frown
I ain't never, I ain't never, I ain't never gonna

I ain't never gonna

Repeat 2

Look, we've got so much her together, babe
You see we took nothing and turned it into something, oh

(we took nothing)
(we turned it into something)
You and me together
Check it out, lemme break it down
(we took nothing)
See one year of courting
Two years of kissing
Three years of fuckin'
And four years of making love
Said just you and me, you and me
So that equals eternity, hey hey

(I know you feelin' me now, huh) they said it wouldn't last
Said it wouldn't last

(we took nothing)
See one year of courting
Two years of kissing
Three years of fuckin'
And four years of making love
(turned it into something)
That's you and me
That's the way a love should be, yeah
You and me did, you and g did
Said we did, yeah

(we took nothing)
Look at what we did, look at we did
(turned it into something)
We took all our tiny fingers and we put them together
(turned it into something)
And we made up something so good, so sweet
Everybody everybody wants it, everybody wants it
We took nothing, nothing
(we took nothing)
Nothing, nothing, ah baby baby

Ah, nothing, nothing
Said we took nothing, me and you
You and me, you and me baby
Uh huh, uh huh

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
