No Love

Lyrics

[Chorus: Candace Love] No love No love No love No [Verse 1: Young AKayser] Early exposure to the game Made me a fast learner, my pops was a die-hard cash earner I watched him rock up dope on the kitchen stove on top of the gas burner He used to scold me, always told me Never to slang dope but that's the only ropes that he showed me Never did bother to be that poppa father figure I needed Tried to make me grow up so fast, out of my childhood I was cheated Much too young for the type of game he tried to teach to me What made it so bad, he never practised what he preached to me He would get broke, get loc and beat up on my mom again Apologise with flowers and a card and it was calm again for a few days She always blamed his actions on his crack high He said he was sorry but that's about the hundredth black eye I done seen my mother try to cover up with make-up Every day they wake up, fighting, why don't they just break up? I don't see no love in all this stress and pain If he dies he dies, for momma's cries he should rest in pain God forbid me but tonight if he don't let that drama ride I got a shank up under my pillow and I'm down for the homicide No love [Chorus: Candace Love] It ain't no love (It ain't no love) It ain't no love comin' from my home It ain't no love (It ain't no love) Yeah It ain't no love (It ain't no love) It ain't no love comin' from my home It ain't no love (It ain't no love) Yeah [Verse 2: Young AKayser] Finally moms left pops Broke out and got us all on welfare Gotta give her props, unlike these smoked out mothers, she took well care Of us, and plus, she had no one to rely on To hold her or give her a shoulder, all she had was a pillow to cry on There was no love at home, we was spoiled brats with a lack of understanding But momma never did leave us abandoned When shit got thick, we would be quick to cop attitudes Never thought about momma's feelings, gave her love and showed gratitude Never knew we was so lucky to have a loving mother, too young to realize And never was told her that we loved her although she did her best Tryna keep all three of us dressed, fresh in new gear Couldn't afford Guess but we was blessed every schoolyear With four or five fits apiece, shirt and jeans to match And momma made her way even if she didn't have the scratch Every now and then my pops came around and bought us something [?] That momma couldn't afford but we got hip quick to that gameplan Trying to buy our love with high-priced gifts, clothes and gold Our hearts was cold, there was no love being sold No love [Chorus: Candace Love] It ain't no love (It ain't no love) It ain't no love comin' from my home It ain't no love (It ain't no love) Yeah It ain't no love (It ain't no love) It ain't no love comin' from my home It ain't no love (It ain't no love) Yeah [Verse 3: Young AKayser] And everything remains the same Even though I'm on my own and all grown, still ain't got no place to call home 'Cause the love between my boo and me is all gone It's all wrong, every other day some beef sparks We used to be a loving couple, now all my knuckles are filled with teethmarks I'm tired of fighting, that psycho tried to kill me last night Tried to grill me with a brass pipe, tried to feel me I know that won't be the last fight When I get home from work she'll be waiting on Puffy eyes and lies, save your cries You ain't gon' never straighten up I got my mind made up, I'm rolling, I'd rather be homeless Roaming the street than beating some evil omen I think it's best that I do the right thing like Spike Lee Hit the road like Jack, before I end the baddest [?] No love [Chorus: Candace Love] It ain't no love (It ain't no love) It ain't no love comin' from my home It ain't no love (It ain't no love) Yeah It ain't no love (It ain't no love) It ain't no love comin' from my home It ain't no love (It ain't no love) Yeah It ain't no love (It ain't no love) It ain't no love comin' from my home It ain't no love (No love) Yeah It ain't no love (It ain't no love) It ain't no love comin' from my home It ain't no love (Yeah) Yeah It ain't no love It ain't no love comin' from my home It ain't no love Yeah
