I'LL BE AROUND

VERSE 1 - DEKAY

I’ve had enuff of ya lies and enuff of my tears/
I've cried too many times for you over the years
Broken promise in ya eyes & my paranoid fears/
We tried 2 many times, but it’s over right here
Ya can pull a good scam but ya can’t fool me doe/
Messing up my plans like that night at Renos
Drink drugs & Doug thought he was Al Pachino/
Shot my cousin Gail in the face over a kilo
How did she know? That ya never told them she was only holding it/
An how did he know? That she hadnt stolen it
& where the fuck did ya go who was you rolling wid?/
Now my 5 yr old nephew will be a lonely kid
& ya cant take that back /
When I was dressed in black you were depressed on crack
After the funeral i had to stay at Maxines flat/
Ya should’a been there when I was in a mess & trapped


CHORUS

Wont let you down/
ya say that now but ya never in town
I'll be around

VERSE 2 - RUKAS

Now youve no reason 2 give kisses & applause to me/
But ya can at least listen this is 4 Julie
The seaon of wisdom thoughts move me/
Guess who they just released from prison? yours truly
I witnessed the sad scenes a dusty hot trail/
My jacket was green, at the bus stop pale black jeans,
Just got bail that means/ I must not fail, no more mad schemes
No drug cocktails, no more crack fiends/
Im sorry, when doug shot gail? I was at deans
So high, felt I could touch gods grail,
And you were at maxines having bad dreams
Fighting back screams/
The buzz got stale shoulda had ya back like tag teams
I mean i shoulda been at yours/
sShe was ya source of comfort I shoulda been that source
yYa felt stressed & i werent round/
But i got help yes im learnin now
12 steps what a turnabout
Well dressed and earning now/
Thinking of myself less/ and rolling back into town!

CHORUS

Wont let you down/
ya say that now but ya never in town
I'll be around

VERSE 3 - DEKAY & RUKAS

DEKAY

Wrote to ya all the time till ya got outa prison/
But if ya gonna take dem drugs we cant go on
Iaint gonna forget, but ya might be forgiven/
So fix yaself now ya gotta be strong

RUKAS

When im annoyed i think, with your love i can listen
See you are the reason i carry on
I enjoy a drink, no more drugs in my system
And again you are the reason i carry on

DEKAY

Yeah i hear what ya saying but ya gotta mean it/
cCoz talk without action doesnt mean shit y
A say ya clean now & i do believe it/
But I dont wanna cry more so ya best achieve this

RUKAS

Though quite talkative Ive matured a bit/
Hey dont cry your my chick, i support ya kid
& I wish ya successes every second with u is precious
Who gotya back? dont needa give ya 6 guesses

DEKAY

I got ya back 2 long as u dont go back 2/
Stuff that attacked u dont wanna see a relapse attack u
Who been on ya side? me thats who/
This shit is permanent u can see it like a tattoo!

CHORUS

Wont let you down/
ya say that now but ya never in town
I'll be around
