Chris Brown - I Needed You W/Lyrics

Told that I was supposed to fail
I wouldn't amount to much of nothin'.
Yes, I pray
There was days I wondered if you really loved me.
"But, baby, you feel pain"
Mama would say when I felt like runnin' away.
I couldn't take it.
I, soon, hit ten, angry with all of the world.
I couldn't keep friends, just wishin' you'd come back and see
My difficult times being an adolescent.
And like so many just like me, without a shoulder to lean.


I needed you
When I needed a father figure.
I needed you
To stop me from makin' a wrong decision.
At seventeen, when the cold of the world had my back up against the wall.

I need, I needed you.
I need, I needed you.

I needed you.

I needed you.
I need, I need you.
Seventeen when the cold of the world had my back up against the wall.
When temptation was calling me, didn't know which way to go.

Mama had no financial help
And thoughts of breakin' the law came.
Seen her tryna hold down two jobs was tearin' up on me had a way (had a way).
All my friends was gettin' in it
It came time for me to get that dough.
Wrong or right I had to go for what I know.

I needed you
When I needed a father figure.
I needed you
To stop me from makin' the wrong decisions.
At seventeen, when the cold of the world had my back up against the wall.

Seventeen when the cold of the world had my back up against the wall.
When temptation was calling me, didn't know which way to go.

Lord I pray. Give me strength to forgive them and not all the I hate I got. Even though the pain of this was too heavy. Lord I pray. Show me all brothers growin' up without a father had a turn with a day adolescent to a legacy. Lord I pray.)

From the knowledge I ain't get
God, you gave me.
And temptation was callin' me, didn't know which way to go.

I needed you
When I needed a father figure.
I needed you
To stop me from makin' the wrong decisions.
At seventeen, when the cold of the world had my back up against the wall.
When temptation was calling me, didn't know which way to go.

this makes me happy my dad tried so hard to be in my life im thankful for what i have

[SimplySmilin]

I've been here and done this. My "dad" abandoned me and my mom when I was a baby because he was an addict and had problems. Then when he got clean 7 years later, he didnt care to get back in touch with me. Instead he got married and had two children who he chose to actually give a shit about.10 years later, we get in contact. Im seventeen now and he tries to facebook me. (Pathetic way to try to form a relationship) It's alright my mom is the best women in the world, better dad then he could be.

[0oilovemusic]

u only miss things when u already lost them ... u dont care about them when they are present cuz u got them but u dont care u think they are obvious sad but true ... i think this is how my father feels now ...

[hernandezjoshua8]

This is a song i could relate to,because at five waz the time when my mom said the only time he waz around when i was 5.but i feel if i never had one cuz i hadn't thought about him. also if i ever become someone big,he'll surely return that's when they come back to get something out of it.

[Dwayne202O]

My mom and dad was killed wen I was 1 never new them but I wish I did cause all those nights I I cried by myself with no one to care y I needed the 2 people in my life but they were gone

[Babyblue2918]

Died she died when I was 6 sorry typo

[Babyblue2918]

I am so sorry for all of who grew up without a father or mother I know what it's like to not have a mother, instead of leaving she sides when I was 6 I love her deeply but like I said I am so sorry for all of you I love this song because it touches me and whenever I listen I feel like I'm free and that I can sing hear out even though I'm seriously shy and can't sing but I truly love this song it's my number 1 song .... ( feel like cryin now ) but for joy

[SimplySmilin]

@deshaun182 Yeah I understand, I guess I've grown to be little stubborn and hard on the matter. Maybe one day I might.

[SimplySmilin]

@MrYamiiii Haha, tell me about it! Moms ftw! (:

[MrYamiiii]

Feel Free not to like, but like if your father is a peice of crap like mine is.

[MrYamiiii]
