Calvin Crabtree Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feenin for affection
(meaning it all with passion)
I'm trying to be lasting, Not last in
Quick to approach and give you all of my kindness
No game , Them others fake
(and think they in a gang)
Insane to that and feeling USED
(Pointing the finger at the one separated from others and does less)
The one to blame.Shame don't come with the fame,...
Always been there
Jealous, scared what them cats on
(like they can't get another)
Been threw several lovers none stand out
(or up for love)
In a way,...
I guess I could be thought of as a thug
(lonely and wanting more)
Closed door low lights alone some times
(why they chase them low life's)
In it to live and let love rule, not the hate
(what was my mistake)
I can wait but so much time has passed
Felling like my love life has been one black mass
But I ain't evil
Where My people?
[Hook: Calvin Crabtree]
And these are my people
These are my people
Yeah these are my people
And these are my people
[Verse 2: Calvin Crabtree]
Dropped like I'm nothing
Where's my good loving?,..
I'm rubbing shoulders with the best
Late nights no one to love
Always some one to fuck but ill pass
(Class , kindness , open communication)
Wanting the life
Kids cars and wife
(Picture me rolling)
I'm still hoping and got faith, But none still here
I miss them,....Do they even remember the sweet talk in there ear?
Wasn't all that actions to back it up
(guess they just wanted a man who wanted them to back it up)
Haters back up
Stay out my things and businesses. (worse than the paparazzi)
..... What is this life? Well, I love it
Above it, Skip them my emotions understood in hip hop
The big drop is when you see me rolling and I just pass
I know you wishing We would stop chill and we laugh
None of that
(All "I" see is the tear in your eye)
I show no emotion
To them
The way I wanted it And so it was brought forth
[Hook: Calvin Crabtree]
And these are my people
These are my people
Yeah these are my people
And these are my people
[Verse 3: Calvin Crabtree]
My people got it out for me
Not paranoid I think deep
Deep enough to see past
(and beyond)
Something else is what I'm on
Got 2 45's and I'm ready to roll
Dropping a note and a load of lead for those acting crazy
Thinking they busing some heads
Was I summoned on earth to suffer or make those who make people suffer
I AINT NO SUCKER.Not talking hard
Just want to be heard
When will I get what I deserve?
[Hook: Calvin Crabtree]
And these are my people
These are my people
Yeah these are my people
And these are my people

I question the meaning of life sometimes, but I still love it
Above it, Skip them my emotions understood in hip hop
I rise above the negative emotions and express them through hip hop music

I am armed with weapons and ready to defend myself if necessary
Dropping a note and a load of lead for those acting crazy
I am prepared to take action against those who are acting irrationally
Thinking they busing some heads
They think they can get away with causing harm to others
Was I summoned on earth to suffer or make those who make people suffer
I don't know if I was sent to earth to suffer or to make those who make others suffer, suffer themselves
I AINT NO SUCKER.Not talking hard
I am not a fool and I am not trying to be tough
Just want to be heard
All I want is for someone to listen to me
When will I get what I deserve?
I wonder when I will finally receive the love and affection that I deserve
