I Found A Love
Jim Jones & The Righteous Mind Lyrics
Hello, what's up, baby?
Ain't doing nothing I'm on my way home right now
What? I'm in tha studio
Yo, I gotta get ready and go home man
I'm in love with a thug
I'm in love, yeah, with a gangster, yeah
Hey, now my wife she won't stop blowin' my phone up
Every bitch conversation they keep throwin' tha Jones up
It makes it hard I'm tryna show her I've grown up
But deep down inside she know I will never give them ho's up
She talk marriage but ya boy froze up, cold feet
Man she knows I'm in love wit' these cold streets
So I'm flowin' threw tha night, just left my bitch house
I'm going home to my wife as I live this double life
I'm in love with a thug
I'm in love with a gangster, yeah
I'm in love with a thug
I'm in love with a gangster, yeah
It started as a crush for years wishin' I could fuck her
Next thing I got caught up, she had me trippin' like a mushroom
Shit became fucked up 'cause we both became love-struck
I be out commitin' crimes, she be still up on my mind
Now I'm tryna shake it off, she still drippin' through tha brain
You know I fean for her like a hit of that Cocain
She say my thug is like drugs and she need her a rehab
And she strung out over love when she see me see relapse
I'm in love with a thug
I'm in love with a gangster, yeah
I'm in love with a thug
I'm in love with a gangster, yeah
No matter what, no one can judge me or tell me how I should feel
Lord knows this man is ride or die, he keeps it so, so real
Even if his pants hang low or some times he'll even rock corn rows
Lord knows my everything and I gotta gotta let' em let 'em know
Now that we argue every night, tha most horrible of fights
If I get caught cheatin', you gon' carve me wit' a knife
But let's take it back when we use to party every night
I thought you of all people would know it's hard to live my life
I say I'm in tha studio, you say you wit' some groupie hoes
We going back and forth, goddamn, this ain't a movie, yo
I'm not tha one for complainin', be mentally drainin'
But some times just listen, it's only one thing I'm sayin', 'I love you'
I'm in love with a thug
I'm in love with a gangster, yeah
I'm in love with a thug
I'm in love with a gangster, yeah
Ain't doing nothing I'm on my way home right now
What? I'm in tha studio
Yo, I gotta get ready and go home man
I'm in love with a thug
I'm in love, yeah, with a gangster, yeah
Hey, now my wife she won't stop blowin' my phone up
