Give Me Love
P. Diddy (Puff Daddy) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Catch me cruising with the lid open
Blue ocean, lit left the crib smoking
Old bay, had her legs soaking
Made it easier to crack like the shell broken
Huddle up, You could use the coaching
A lil butter kept it smooth while the bread toasting
A lot of reck, can't dispute commotion
I just tell them keep it real they go off pure emotion
Guess its deeper than rap, temperature check
Put the heat to ya back, hope you don't freeze up
Energy change, you a mood rang
Love the ass, still a titty boy I'm two chainz
9/11 that was two plane,
So forgive me while I bolt I look like Usain, bang
Still the hottest I'm the blue flame
Kicking fire on my Lou Kang, this ain't nothing new maine
Forgive me, Forgive me
Looking back at my life
So much wrong ,I'm just tryna get right
Forgive me, Forgive me
Looking back at my life
So much wrong ,I'm just tryna get right
I talk to God cuz its been a while
Dark times made It hard to see a nigga smile
Wild thoughts, I'm talking hella foul
Almost convinced I brought him up, just to let him down
But never mind that shit we spin the town
Big bags, hit the jeweler just to bust it down
O.T.F only the fam around
And I ain't Phelps, so the motto we just lettem drown
My boogie board was wore daily, all 80's
Gottem looking all crazy
Heavy chicken made the fit gravy
Plus the handle 99 so I'm never shakey
Its been a minute, I been illing lately
HD I'm 4k you still 1080
The clearer picture em, I slim shadys
Now my circle bout as small as a pin maybe
Forgive me, Forgive me
Looking back at my life
So much wrong ,I'm just tryna get right
Forgive me, Forgive me
Looking back at my life
So much wrong ,I'm just tryna get right
Big blunts heavy drinks
Downing xanies by the sink
Falling deep I cant sleep
Someone come n rescue me
Big blunts heavy drinks
Downing xanies by the sink
Falling deep I cant sleep
Someone come n rescue me
I feel all alone
I feel all alone
Times not by my side
Times not by my side
No No No No
Big blunts heavy drinks
Downing xanies by the sink
Falling deep I cant sleep
Someone come n rescue me




I just need a sign
I just need a sign

So your first taste of life hadn't been so sweet
And the world that you know didn't fall at your feet
And its hey I'm all on my way

So your dancing alone broken heart once again
Don't believe that you do cos we all need a friend
And its hey I'm all on my way

And it's much too late for you to take me home
But it's not too late for you to give me love. Give me love....

Give me love all I ever wanted
Give me love everything I needed
Give me love all I ever wanted
Into my heart

Well you thought that you learned and you'd thought that you'd try
Being true to yourself and not some sort of lie.
And it's hey I'm all on my way

Now there's one thing that's real if your going to survive
It's that feelings like this, they just can't be denied
And it's hey I'm all on my way

And it's much to late for you to take me home
But it's not too late for you to give me love. Give me love....

Give me love all I ever wanted
Give me love all I ever needed
Give me love all I ever wanted
Into my heart.
