ooohh

yeaahhh ehhh

oooh oh

i say a thug needs love too

i say a thuuggg neeeedsss. i say a thug needs love too

even a thuuggg neeeedsss love. you'd rather take your house and make it out a trap

whatever just to make me happy

and now a days i could easily say

i apologize for treating you so badly

it felt like you just threw me away

14 let em come take me away

but you ain't raise me to hold no grudge

so it is what it it is

cause it was what it was

you wanted me to be better than my daddy

i ain't seen him in so long

but i love

the love

i get from my kids

every single night

when i get home

tough love i like that

thanks to you

i'm back on track

and i ain't too gangsta to tell you this

mama

you know i love you for that

i say a thug needs love too

i say a thuuggg neeeedsss. i say a thug needs love too

even a thuuggg neeeedsss love. i say a thug needs love too

i say a thuuggg neeeedsss. i say a thug needs love too

even a thuuggg neeeedsss love. they say the going get tough

then the tough get going

but you stood 10 tall

not even knowing

none of us knew the outcome was gonna be

all we knew was they accusing me of selling the g's

they had in the can

baby you never missed a court date

every single visit in there

you there to support me

and when i came home

i ain't have to leave

you made sure i had everything that i need

i took a l with the sack

you let me bounce back

shes a definite blessing

i gotta count that

friends told you that i was bad news

ran with a bad crew

said ima bad dude

and over them you chose rock

so no matter what i got

you got

over them you chose a thug

so its only right for me to show you some love

i say a thug needs love too

i say a thuuggg neeeedsss. i say a thug needs love too

even a thuuggg neeeedsss love. i say a thug needs love too

i say a thuuggg neeeedsss. i say a thug needs love too

even a thuuggg neeeedsss love. i still got all the clothes you made for me

and everything you taught me always stayed with me

you was always at church

while i stayed in the streets

i think the only reason i'm here is cause you prayed for me

you showed me right from wrong

taught me bout the power of tongue

that's why i keep it real no matter what

in all of my songs

found them guns in your house

you coulda put me out

but you didn't cause you knew what thug life was about

so you kept me in your prayers kept on giving me hugs

kept on telling its more than life to selling these drugs

you know you hate the simple fact your grandbabys a thug

but no matter what i did

you still gave me your love

i say a thug needs love too

i say a thuuggg neeeedsss. i say a thug needs love too

even a thuuggg neeeedsss love. i say a thug needs love too

i say a thuuggg neeeedsss. i say a thug needs love too

even a thuuggg neeeedsss love.
