I'll Be There When You Need Me
THE TIMING IS PERFECT
SO LETS GET STRAIGHT TO THE SUBJECT
ITS YOU AND I IN THE FUTURE
SO THERE'S NO NEED TO DISCUSS IT
IT'S ALL ABOUT WHAT WE'RE MAKING
NO MATTER, BABIES OR BACON
AS I'M THE LIFE OF THE PARTY
YOU KNOW THERE'LL BE NO MISTAKING
SO TELL YOUR BUSTERS AND PLAYERS
TO GET TO PACKING AND STEPPING
CAUSE YOU AIN'T HEARING THAT DRAMA
AS I'M YOUR NEW SECRET WEAPON
I'll KEEP IT REALER THAN REAL
AND KICK THE FAKE TO THE CURB
DON'T WANT TO GET YOU TOO EXCITED
CAN YOU HANDLE THESE WORDS
T A SMOOTH IS THE TITLE
AND UNIVERSAL'S THE FAME
HERE IN MEMPHIS'S WHERE IT STARTED
AND I CONTINUE TO REIGN
I SEE YOUR STANDARDS ARE HIGH
I KNOW YOUR BEAUTY'S UNRAVELED
I MAY BE STREET, BUT NEVER THUGGING
COMING STRAIGHT FROM THE BIBLE
SEE, THE LORD GAVE ME WISDOM
I NEVER DID TIME IN PRISON
I'M NOT A MOSES, YET I SUPPOSE
THAT I CAN DO SOMETHING WITH HIM
NOW IF YOU FEEL ME, REVEAL ME
AND PUT AN END TO THE QUOTAS
FOR THERE'S NO NEED FOR STOCKPILING
BECAUSE YOUR SEARCHING IS OVER
NOW IF YOU DOUBT IT, THEN DOWN IT
BUT IF YOU DON'T, COME A RUNNING
CAUSE THIS AIN'T JOKING OR TRIPPING
AND WASN'T MEANT TO BE FUNNY
ALREADY BEEN WHERE YOU'RE GOING
SO I CAN SEE WHERE YOU'RE HEADED
AND IF YOU PASS UP THIS OFFER
I THINK WE BOTH WILL REGRET IT
NOW BABY, HANDLE YOUR BUSINESS
AND DO WHATEVER COMES EASY
BUT IF YOU FIND YOUR PRINCE LACKING
KNOW, I'M THERE WHEN YOU NEED ME
