Cry Like A Baby
Q.J. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm sorry, look what they've done to me
Left my love behind to suit their fantasies
I'm dying, why won't they just let me be?
I once was carefree, now I'm all so lonely
Baby, don't leave

I'm lovin' everythin' about you
Mad, 'cause everybody only wanna use you
Physically and mentally abuse you
Misuse you and can't even console you

They only wanna get you dirty, treat you gully
Get ya bloody, uh-huh, it's not funny
Rappers bring ugly, straight to you
But baby girl, I'm on my knees 'cause I love you

I'm loving everything about you
Inside, outside, that's right, in every molecule
Forget the money, forget the cristal
Princess to a queen, that's right, I wanna see you smile

I'm lovin' everythin' about you, boo
I'm lovin' everythin' about you, true
I'm lovin' everythin' about you
Pure love I spit, that's right, look what I bring to you
I'm lovin' everythin' about you

I'm sorry, look what they've done to me
Left my love behind to suit their fantasies
I'm dying, why won't they just let me be?
I once was carefree, now I'm all so lonely
Baby, don't leave

I'm sorry for your mistreatments
Frankly, I know you been mistreated
Fake prophets, false off our favors of filthiness
It's silliness, with no love for the culture

Tryna get rich, yeah, it really makes me nautious
They're the reason, some women, they have abortions
Hip hop, you was my very first girlfriend
I focused to spit it right, my songs are an offerin'

Knowledge first, over beats, producers are samplin'
Myself and creations, on the line as I offer in
It's kinda sad that the toxins are smotherin'
Youth in the hood, poisoned by instant messages

Materialism, barbarianism, all types of isms
And schisms by tainted vision
I watched you grow from a seed into a forest
I watered you and watered you but your flowers are dyin'

I'm sorry, look what they've done to me
Left my love behind to suit their fantasies
I'm dying, why won't they just let me be?
I once was carefree, now I'm all so lonely
Baby, don't leave

I'm lovin' everythin' about you
Mad 'cause everybody only wanna use you
I admit I used you, but together
We have family, my album's in your name
I'm loving your music beautifully, I feel you slippin' away

Come here girl, uh-uh, can't have my love gone
It's like En Vogue, I guess I gotta 'Hold On'
I wanna drop it for the cause, I know you righteous
Spit something from the heart, help clean up the virus
Decapitate ferocious, peg leg rap pirates

They only flowing now, 'cause the dough flowing now
Who, what, when, why, where and how
I'm sorry baby, that you've been used and abused
And served like hell, some they say I'm a tattle tale
If that when I see wrong done to you, you know I got to tell
Tell, tell, tell, tell

I'm sorry, look what they've done to me
Left my love behind to suit their fantasies
I'm dying, why won't they just let me be?
I once was carefree, now I'm all so lonely
Baby, don't leave

No, baby, don't go
No, baby, don't leave
No, baby, don't go
No, no, baby, don't leave




No, baby, don't go
No, baby, don't leave
