The Only One I Trust Lyrics - City High - City High

It's a ghetto fairytale 

Hey yeah yeah yeah 

It was two weeks before my son's birthday 

DT's ringing my bell 

(Ma'am we need to ask a few questions) 

They told me the raid would go down any day 

If I was smart I wouldn't tell 

(No no) 

It was all over him, you're my boyfriend the criminal 

He was caught up in the game 

And the FBI warned if I didn't go along 

They'd make sure I never saw my son or my boyfriend again 

(Remember this, you are a convicted felon on probation) 

But how could I just turn him in? 

(Ma'am if you don't help us, you'll never see your son again, trust me) 

He would always tell me 

I know you're afraid 

But you can't leave me now 

Lean on my shoulder 

Soon it'll be over 

I'm tryin' to build our future 

I'm doin' this for us 

You're the only one I love 

The only one I trust 

I'd been with him for about 4 years and I swear 

He gave me anything I could dream 

(Anything) 

But the life that he lived was a nightmare I swear 

Wasn't clean he was blinded by the cream 

All the murderous cases, the trips to Las Vegas 

Makin' millions from papers blood stained 

(Nasty money) 

Stuck in my head like a song, saw every sin I knew every wrong 

And if I don't go along, I'd never see my family again 

No no no 

(Hmm) 

Hey hey hey 

(So what's it gonna be?) 

(I know my rights) 

(One phone call from me and your son's going to a foster home) 

(Whatever) 

(Answer the question) 

I don't have to answer shit 

He would also tell me 

(Tell me yeah) 

I know you're afraid 

But you can't leave me now 

Lean on my shoulder 

Soon it'll be over 

(Soon it'll be over) 

I'm tryin' to build our future 

I'm doin' this for us 

You're the only one I love 

The only one I trust 

It was Saturday evenin', we were home watching TV 

He looked in my eyes I wanted to cry 

(Oh) 

My son ran to hug him, he kissed him goodnight 

How could I do this, could I do this when I knew he would die? 

Fed's rushed the door, yelled everyone on the floor' 

My man pulled his nine and started to fight 

He was a soldier of cause in a war he couldn't win 

But without him I'm lost 

So I stood by his side and went down with him 

Help 

No no no no 

No no no no 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah 

Help 

Ohh 

He would always tell me 

I know you're afraid 

But you can't leave me now 

Lean on my shoulder 

Soon it'll be over 

I'm tryin' to build our future 

I'm doin' this for us 

You're the only one I love 

The only one I trust 

I know you're afraid 

But you can't leave me now 

Lean on my shoulder 

Soon it'll be over 

I'm tryin' to build our future 

I'm doin' this for us 

You're the only one I love 

The only one I trust 

I'm sorry 

I'm so sorry
