medley: ike's rap ii / help me love

love

love

i know you can hear me

see we've known each other a long time

i guess right now you've got the last laugh

i know i abused you

i took advantage of you

i used you selfishly

i apologize now

see because after suffering so much

i know now i was wrong

you've the only one i can turn to

because i misused you

you've the only one that can straighten me

you see love

i can't sleep

i can't even eat

i don't go anywhere anymore

love

if you help me just this once

i'll never misuse you anymore

i won't be cold anymore

and i'll forever keep you in my heart

please baby

please

help me love

find my way

i'm still living in yesterday

there are some things i don't care to reveal

you see they make me feel the way that i feel

i think if i told you

you might just understand

why i appear to be such a cold-hearted man

once upon a love

that was so untrue

it turned my heart into stone

and left me so blue

you got to help me love

you're my only chance

i need you to help make me once again a man

take this heart of mine

and make it new

please

don't ever leave me blue

and if there's anyone in this whole wide world

it would be you

you're secret baby love

just give me love like i never had

treat me good

i'm so tired of being treated so bad

help me love

i feel so bad

i guess it goes all the way back to my mom and dad

two people

i never chanced to know

i wonder why

i miss them so

i never had a mothers touch

or a fathers hand

a good woman's love

why

i just don't understand

maybe i'm the one who made myself blue

won't you help me love

help me find happiness with you

help me love

help me love

help me love

find my way

help me love

turn darkness into day

help me love

you're my only chance

help me love

make me once again a man

help me love

i need you so bad

help me love

give me the chance i never had

please
