Got Your Back
T.I. Lyrics

Aye
Introduction to the song

Shawty I know you be hearing this and that From here and there but,
Acknowledging the rumors and gossip surrounding their relationship

Please trust and believe lil' momma I see you gon' ride for me So I'm a die for you Is you wit' me?
Assuring her that he trusts her completely and is dedicated to serving their relationship as she does

I got your back boy
Statement of commitment to the relationship

Well lets get it We were high (til when its all good) We were low ((til when its all bad) But I promise I will never let you go (now what you call that)
Acknowledging the ups and downs of the relationship but promising to always stay together

Said I got I got I got I got your back boy (you got my back right?)
Reiterating that he always has her back and checking for her response

I got I got I got I got your back boy (as long I know you got my back right)
Reassuring her that he is committed to standing by her as long as she does the same

Keep my swagger Keep it looking good for ya Keep it looking hood for ya
Committing to maintaining his style for her

And shawty if you don't know Hey it's whatever shawty You ain't gotta ask
Letting her know that he is there for her no matter what, without her having to ask

Yes, Valentino blouses, summer houses, cash, check! You can get it you deserve it, flawless diamonds, Louie purses, My mission's to purchase Earth for her
Promising to provide her with all the luxurious things she deserves and expressing his commitment to give her everything she desires

Present the gifts without the curse Her pleasure is my purpose Pleasure to be at your service
Committing to service and catering to her needs without any negative consequences

We front row at fashion shows As well as Sunday morning service
Sharing that they enjoy high society events together, as well as attending church

But better days or for worse If I'm paid or I'm hurting in my pocket She still got a nigga back, know that's for sure
Promising to always be there for her through the good times and the bad, regardless of financial status

No matter what may occur in life Everyday with her is like a plus I'm a love her til she be like that's enough Pop a bottle get a couple wine glasses fill 'em up and lift 'em up Let us toast to the future here's to us No, here's to her
Reflecting on how grateful he is for her presence in his life and expressing his love for her while drinking to their future together

They wonder how we do what we do Panamera Porsche's me and you Stuck to your side li, li, like glue Be by your side boy, whatever your goin' through
Reiterating that they have a strong connection and are committed to standing together through thick and thin

Said I got I got I got I got your back, boy I got I got I got I got your back, boy
Repeating the chorus to emphasize the loyalty he has for her

This is for the women who man caught a sentence Who gonna be there for a minute but they didn't keep their distance They stayed home waiting on the phone And on visit day show up looking good smelling better, playing kissy face Just wanna let you know we appreciate Everything you do for us on a day to day And I know we don't show you all the time but we lucky that you ours No bouquet of flowers could ever show how much we know we need you We do all that's in our power just to please you
Appreciating the women who stand by their men who are incarcerated and acknowledging the sacrifices they make

See boo, fuck them girls I would leave the world 'fore I leave you May God say even Eve and Adam ain't have shit on these two Sure 'nough Even though them chicks be hatin' on us Still I'm gonna keep her by my side In whatever situation we gon' ride Make all my fantasies come alive That's no lie now
Stating that he is committed to her above all other women, citing the biblical story of Adam and Eve, and reaffirming his dedication to the relationship no matter what

I'll be alright just as long as you beside me Ten million dollar mansions won't suffice If you ain't gon' be in there with me at night
Saying that material possessions are not enough and the thing that truly comforts him is her presence at night

The pieces to my puzzle's in my life With all of my good days and all of my bad You stood by your man and you know you got my back Worth every car every bag with me they wanna be that I know what I got at home I ain't never gon' leave that Them bitches best believe that (you got my back right, back right, back right)
Thanking her for being his support system and acknowledging that he will never leave her for anyone else
