[Intro]
Niggaz, niggaz, niggaz, niggaz, niggaz, niggettes
(Yeah) y'all been invited, (welcome)
That's what I'm talkin 'bout
Mobb Deep up in this motherfucker, bring yo' ass in here
Hey yo check it out son, check it out like this
[Havoc]
I keep a hammer on my waist 'cause ain't no steppin' to this
Hey yo don't let you be a problem that I'm fiendin' to fix
You peep the grin on my face that mean I'm creepin' on somethin'
Whether a bad bitch, or a nigga that stole somethin'
Call me a old school cat wit aiyyoung mentality
I live by the day and I go out for family
I don't understand language if it ain't talkin' money
From the era walkin' 'round with knots lookin' bummy
Certain bitches knew the code so they went with the flow
And let you know they wanted fifty-four elevens from the door
We cut school, cooked caine, took traum' to the brain
And though a nigga had it, still hopped the fuckin' train
Look back and laugh but ain't shit funny still
My little brother took his life, forever I'm stuck with a ice grill
Got friends with chemical imbalances
And when the love get tough, believe me it's challengin'
[Hook]
You go out for me, I'm goin' out for you
Tough love (tough love)
It's the crew for one, and one for the crew (yeah)
It's tough love (tough love)
No matter the bullshit the world put us through (*gunshot*)
Tough love (tough love)
Y'all my motherfuckin' niggaz and you know what I'd do
(hey yo check it out)
Bust slugs (bust slugs)
[Prodigy]
It was one of those days you could smell it was 'bout to rain
Parked in the car sittin' in the back seat
Just me and my dun, smokin' the weed
That's when the floor phone rung, "who could this be?" (get back)
"What's good?"
"Yo dun, I got some very bad news"
"Yo who this?"
"Lil' BG from Springfield, and Franny Lou"
"Okay, talk to me"
"Now to make a long story short, Yvesh got bodied at
Precious' party"
"You lyin'"
"That's word to our dead, hear what I said
Now meet me at the rest it's time for get back"
"I'm there"
Dropped off my dun at the Vann's, at Yorke College
Can't believe they killed my man 'Vesh
Why not flip? somebody gotta pay for this
And we know who did it man it's time for that shit
Go around they way and spray them clips
And watch niggaz lay down like naked chicks
[Hook]
You go out for me, I'm goin' out for you
Tough love (tough love)
It's the crew for one, and one for the crew (yeah)
It's tough love (tough love)
No matter the bullshit the world put us through (*gunshot*)
Tough love (tough love)
Y'all my motherfuckin' niggaz and you know what I'd do
(HEY YO CHECK IT OUT)
Bust slugs (bust slugs)
[Havoc]
That's right my niggaz and niggettes

And get that motherfuckin album and stay, in-tune

The lyrics TOUGH LOVE (FREESTYLE) of MOBB DEEP is also present in the album Free agents - the murda mixtape - main disc (2003)
Mobb Deep è stato un duo hip hop statunitense formato dai rapper Havoc (Jason Irvine) e Prodigy (Albert Johnson). Attivi dal 1990 fino alla morte di Prodigy nel 2017, sono considerati pilastri della Golden Era dell'East Coast hip hop. Il loro stile musicale è caratterizzato da testi cuciti con realismo crudo sulla vita nelle strade di Queensbridge, New York, e produzioni dark e atmosferiche. Il loro album di debutto *Juvenile Hell* (1993) ha introdotto il mondo al loro sound distintivo. Tuttavia, è stato il secondo album, *The Infamous* (1995), a consacrarli come icone del genere. Con brani come «Shook Ones (Part II)» e «Survival of the Fittest», Mobb Deep hanno definito l'estetica sonora dell'East Coast hip hop degli anni '90. Dopo *The Infamous*, il duo ha continuato a pubblicare album di successo, tra cui *Hell on Earth* (1996) e *Murda Muzik* (2000). Prodigy ha anche intrapreso una carriera solista, pubblicando diversi album. La morte prematura di Prodigy nel 2017 ha segnato la fine di Mobb Deep, lasciando un vuoto nel panorama hip hop.
In the realm of rock 'n' roll, there are few names as iconic as Queen, and within the Queen pantheon, Brian May stands out not only as a legendary guitarist but also as an astrophysicist with a profound connection to NASA.

Do we want to define "I know you know me" a masterpiece? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt for at least two reasons. The first and most evident are the artists who interpret it: Caroline Spence and Matt Berninger, second for the deep and poetic text.
My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
