[Chorus: Woman]
You're all I got, I’m all you need
By you can always call on me
Even when you're doin' wrong
You never have to fall alone
I’ll pick you when you fall down
Through thick and thin, I'll be around
Whatever the case may be
Don't hesitate to call on me
[Verse 1]
To hear my mama fed up and tell me to bounce
Still in high school, sleepin' on grandma's couch
Just a crack dealer, young hood love in the street
I'm on a mission and I will not accept defeat
I'm just another kid lost with the most potential
The physical is easy, the challenge is mental
Will you make the right choice and clean your act up?
Or make them itchy trigger fingers call for back up?
When you get a second chance, few will get one
Still with the lover you'll people adapt, son
You need to be proud of me, I kept my promise
A mother like a phoenix should call Violetta Wallace
Forever mournin’ their sons like grandma griefs for my Uncle Doc
It’s like nothin' else could feel that spot
When I was lost, you saved me
And all that real that tough love you gave me
I could hear you sayin’
[Chorus: Woman]
You're all I got, I'm all you need
By you can always call on me
Even when you're doin’ wrong
You never have to fall alone
I'll pick you when you fall down
Through thick and thin, I'll be around
Whatever the case may be
Don't hesitate to call on me
[Verse 2]
You saw me on top of my game and have it all
Who would ever think one day I'd lose it all?
Liquidate cars, auction off my castle
We always stayed tight now it all unravels
Well woman up and leave me, my kids in different states
Can't cry tears, 'cause I'm cold and my heartaches
The world must think I'm at my lowest point now
Strip me down and show me who run the joint now
But there you were when they wanna impale me
Never add a pity though, never could fail me
You knew I could bring somethin' back to the table
To see it all blossom like the flowers in April
So if life is a tug-of-war, let's keep pullin'
'Cause behind every strong man is a strong woman
When I was that lost, you saved me
And all that real that tough love you gave me
I could hear you sayin'
[Chorus: Woman]
You're all I got, I'm all you need
By you can always call on me
Even when you're doin' wrong
You never have to fall alone
I'll pick you when you fall down
Through thick and thin, I'll be around
Whatever the case may be
Don't hesitate to call on me
[Verse 3]
Here's to the next Betty Shabazz, Coretta Scott King
Maya Angelou, said she wanna be "O"
Just like the Winfrey's, pooches and all
The same way you got my back, big or small
You know the one they always said would be there for ya
Jewelry out the pawn shop, stack for my lawyer
When I was that lost, you saved me
And all that real that tough love you gave me
I could hear you sayin'
[Chorus: Woman]
You're all I got, I'm all you need
By you can always call on me
Even when you're doin' wrong
You never have to fall alone
I'll pick you when you fall down
Through thick and thin, I'll be around
Whatever the case may be
Don't hesitate to call on me
You're all I got, I'm all you need
By you can always call on me
Even when you're doin' wrong
You never have to fall alone
I'll pick you when you fall down
Through thick and thin, I'll be around
Whatever the case may be
Don't hesitate to call on me
You're all I got, I’m all you need
By you can always call on me
Even when you're doin' wrong
You never have to fall alone
I’ll pick you when you fall down
Through thick and thin, I'll be around
