[Lyric] Rebel 4 Love (Ralph Martinez)

[Intro]
Walkin' down this rocky road wonderin' where my life is leading
Rollin' on to the bitter end
I'm finding out along the way what it takes to keep love living
You should know how it feels my friend

[Hook]
Ooh, I want you to stay, ooh, I want you today
I'm ready for love, oh baby I'm ready for love
I'm ready for love, oh baby I'm ready for love, yeah

[Verse 1]
It’s obvious to see that I’m ahead of my time
But I’m taking this rap shit one step at a time
Making sure that I never get ahead of myself
The whole purpose of my writing is to better myself
And if I don’t, then I’ve let us down
I say us because truth be told I’m nothing without y’all
Back against the wall but I manage to bounce off
I’m reincarnation of Pac and The Outlaws
Niggas can’t fuck with me, never that
This is for the misfits, where all of my rebels at
Nah, I ain’t lyin’, I got the heart of a lion
And the concrete jungle’s my natural habitat
I could really care less about your favorite rapper
Cause’ if he’s not me, he doesn’t really matter
But if it’s me, then salute to you
Cause’ real recognize real and you see I’m the truth, wassup
[Hook]
Ooh, I want you to stay, ooh, I want you today
I'm ready for love, oh baby I'm ready for love
I'm ready for love, oh baby I'm ready for love, yeah

[Verse 2]
They say good things come to those who wait
Well I been on my grind like four years straight
Tryina’ fight the feelings that I have for Kelsey Marie
Trying harder to figure out who I’m destined to be
Sometimes I find it hard to believe that I’m 18
High definition my life is in HD
Tryina’ pay my rent, but my job don’t pay me
No place to vent like Central AC, so I
Just resort to the pad and the pen
It’s better than being surrounded by fraudulent friends
I haven’t seen my father since the age of ten
I’m starting to feel like an orphan again
Like 2Pac Shakur when it rains it pours
They got money for war, but can’t feed the poor
My mother gets scared when I talk like this
But just know I’m nothing more than a rebel for the cause, applaud

[Hook]
Ooh, I want you to stay, ooh, I want you today
I'm ready for love, oh baby I'm ready for love
I'm ready for love, oh baby I'm ready for love, yeah
