The-Dream - Y'all Lyrics

If this ain't the realest thing I've ever wrote
When I start to sing I pray to God "Make me choke"
If this ain't the realest thing I've ever wrote
When I start to sing I hope God makes me choke

You might wanna say
Regardless, he's heartless
Caught up, drugged out
There I go puttin' words in yo mouth
You wanna say, he's a no good, son of a bitch
He'll never know what love truly is
You wanna say, he ain't never been nothing
He's a monster, who would even want him anyway?
You wanna say I'm the lowest thing in the world
Right next to the snake

But what they won't say
Is when you need help, who you call?
I was there to help you fight 'em all
What they won't say is I've slaved for my children
Like it's no tomorrow
I did it all, even through my sorrow
What they won't say
Is I've already bought houses for both of my daughters
What a wonderful father
What they won't say
Is I've changed every life of every nigga around me
Even the niggas that used to clown me

Some days I'm Superman
But sometimes even my cape needs dry-cleaning
Every once in a while
Sometimes I make it through without a pastor
But sometimes even I can use some preaching too
I'm just a child
Some days I'm full of positive energy
Other days I'm tired and I need help
Just to smile
Most days I can lead us to victory
But some days I need you to lead me

I can hear my mother say from the other land
This too shall pass
I can hear my father say from the other land
This too shall pass

Hate me when I'm up, love me when I'm down
Appreciate the good and bad until I'm underground
Love when me I'm torn, love me when I fall
Crucify me if you want but I won't stop loving

Ya'll ya'll ya'll ya'll
Ya'll ya'll ya'll ya'll
Ya'll ya'll ya'll ya'll
Ya'll ya'll ya'll ya'll

What they wanna say
Is how I don't give a damn about anybody
Who the fuck you kidding? Yeah right
They wanna say
I'm selfish, I wasn't there when you was helpless
Yeah, whatever, whatever
They wanna say
That I'm trash, I'm broken glass
I'm all that

But what they they they they they won't say
Is that he's fair, and that he's always there
At the same motherfuckin' time
He said he was gon' be there
What they won't say
Is that I take love seriously
What they won't say
Is that I care like you wouldn't believe

So if I hurt you I'm sorry
I didn't mean no harm
But I really gave it my all

Some days I'm Superman
But sometimes even my cape needs dry-cleaning
Every once in a while
Sometimes I make it through without a pastor
But sometimes even I can use some preaching too
I'm just a child
Some days I'm full of positive energy
Other days I'm tired and I need help
Just to smile
Most days I can lead us to victory
But some days I need you to lead me

I can hear my mother say from the other land
This too shall pass
I can hear my father say from the other land
This too shall pass

Hate me when I'm up, love me when I'm down
Appreciate the good and bad until I'm underground
Love when I'm torn, love me when I fall
Crucify me if you want but I won't stop loving you

Ya'll ya'll ya'll ya'll
Ya'll ya'll ya'll ya'll
Ya'll ya'll ya'll ya'll
Ya'll ya'll ya'll ya'll

If this ain't the realest thing I've ever wrote
When I start to sing I pray to God "Make me choke"
If this ain't the realest thing I've ever wrote
When I start to sing I hope God makes me choke

I'm only human
And you're only human
