All I Need Is You
Cormega Lyrics

Yo Tek whattup with them niggaz in Cincinnati? {*celly rings*} Word? I gotta come out there son {*ringing*} hold on one second
Cormega is checking in with a friend over the phone to ask about others in Cincinnati, but has to cut the conversation short due to another incoming call.

Yo, last night I had a dream it had me open like a fiend And all I remember is me, you, the moon and ocean breeze My heartbeat increased like I seen approachin D's I relapsed cause of these words you spoke to me
Cormega had a dream about the person he loves, which had him feeling euphoric. But it also brought back old feelings that he had to suppress in the past.

You said you want to feel me - inside you - conceal me I belong to you no other woman could steal me We mentally attached, essential in fact What you give is so real you know I had to give it back
The person Cormega loves expresses wanting to be with him and keep him to herself. They have a deep emotional connection that Cormega treasures.

How I feel don't even matter if I ain't expressin (affection) My mind was affected you healed me (we destined) Your beauty so addictive, I can't deny your presence So pure I gotta add cut to spread you on
Cormega was emotionally wounded before he met the love of his life. She healed him and now he is completely devoted to her, admiring her beauty.

You're all I need in this world to succeed I won't let you go cause I can see you trust me I'll never leave or deceive you, and if it's understood Then we can be together cause you treat a nigga good
Cormega values his relationship with the woman he loves and promises to never hurt her or leave her. He wants to be with her because they have a good connection.

When I was runnin the street I know you wanted to leave Especially the time, you found a nine in my jeans But you persevered, gave work and tears That's why I'll never desert you or hurt you yeah
Cormega has not always been the best partner and his past mistakes could have ended their relationship. But the woman he loves chose to support him and their relationship.

I used to keep feelings concealed, now I reveal 'em I was hustlin to get right, now we chillin Oh my man starin at ceiling thinkin of children And any other situation we might deal with
Cormega used to suppress his emotions but now he's open with his feelings. He used to hustle and make money, but now he's settled down with her and is thinking about their future together.

At first, I was hesitatin, makin a commitment Now I see you different - so many ways I need a queen like a king did in great Egyptian days And it seems you've been afraid I might get into things
Cormega was once unsure about making a commitment to his relationship, but now he sees the person he loves in a different light. He wants a strong partner like the ancient kings of Egypt. She's worried about him getting into dangerous situations.

That might put me away for years, save your fears Listen ma, let's get one thing clear I'll never leave you, deceive you, and if it's understood We can be together cause you treat a nigga good
Cormega tries to reassure her that she doesn't have to worry about him getting into trouble, and promises to always be loyal to her, always be with her and support her in all her dreams.

Yo, I'm not the type to have a next chick call on your phone Come see you at night and in the morning you alone I keep it real with you, like my connect you got it good I need to deal with you, have yet to leave the hood
Cormega affirms that he's not the kind of person to cheat on her or have other women calling her phone. He admits she's his connect and partners in crime and expresses desire to make things work with her.

But I'm still with you everytime you need me I'm there for you If I didn't care for you why would I be here for you? You 'pear loyal, got the kid spoiled On the low I don't think I was prepared for you
Cormega wants her to know that he will always be there for her and treats her well because he cares about her. She's emotionally supportive and spoils him, which he appreciates.

You cook good, look good, Boo I adore you And if you get me mad we won't fight I'll ignore you (yeah right) Just playin, but yo I'm just sayin I'm about to go, cause Hi-Tek waitin
Cormega finds her attractive and admires her cooking as well. He's playfully teasing her about how he won't fight with her, but still has to attend to other obligations.

Yo son that beat ready? And guns is rusty I'm stingy with trust, you only get once to fuck me The pure white endorser, skills real like a Porsche For the cash I'm there like a stalker, uhh
Cormega is asking for a beat to rap to and then goes on to rap about how he's selective with who he trusts, doesn't forgive those who betray his trust, and is willing to do whatever it takes to earn money through music. He boasts about his rapping skills.

You say the same shit I play the game with skills like Latrell, and write so well And I gotta go to heaven cause my life is hell If I quit rap, this cook white gon' sell You niggaz got fat while I did time in jail Now it's time to pay, the rhymes you say Sound a lot like mine, but not quite as ill As my rhymin skill, I could relate to how Tyson feel My life is real, you're the fragment Of somebody else life, or shit you imagined It's like the beat make me react savage...
Cormega criticizes other rappers whom he deems unoriginal, and contrasts his own difficulties with their apparent ease. Cormega likens his past drug dealing to a sport, showing his tough exterior but with hidden vulnerabilities.

[Chorus: Jonell] All I need is you - in my life, to be down with me.. All I need is you - to hold me, and to make me see.. All I need is you - to be there, in my time of need.. All I need is you - I'll be there, when you need me to be..
The chorus reiterates Cormega's point that the person he loves is all he needs to get by.
