Aaliyah ft. DMX - Come Back In One Piece Lyrics

There we go, okay, okay, don't do me greazy, okay

Uh, ay, you know what a oneeds?
Do you really know what a dog needs?
A dog needs a- (what? What?)
A dog needs a- (come on)
Not just any, uh, but a real, uh
That's gon' hold that dog down

Baby, I am what I am, I'm gon' be who I be (uh)
Everything from chasing a cat, to- on a tree (uh-huh)
Let me see what I gotta to see
Do what I gotta to do, dog for life, but keep it true
Every once in a while I'll break out the backyard to roam (uh)
And get reckless, but I still know that home is home (a'ight)
And when I get there I'ma sit there
Take a, uh, there, put my, uh, there
Do I handle my business? (What?) yeah
I'ma run 'til I bust my gun and empty the clip
And if I come home, and gotta go, just give me the whip
I ain't got time for the lip, just open the fence (uh-huh)
Let me go, I'll come back, I ain't got time to convince (uh)
Ever since I was a pup I've been stuck with the street- (come on)
Keep the heat (uh, uh, uh), gotta eat-
I pass on a weak-, if it's out there I want it
All at one time, so when it's my time I've done it (a'ight)

I know you'd kill for me, you'd die for me
I know you like to rip and run the streets
But I get nervous sometimes, hey baby, I can't help to think
You might not make it home to eat, I barely sleep (come on)
Could you pick up a phone and call me at home
And let me know you ain't in some heat?
And don't come crying, you're grown
You know I'm looking out for you
'Cause you be looking out for me, me, me

Yo, you can go with your dogs
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece (uh)
Said, you can go with your dogs
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece
'Fore you go bending the law (come on)
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece (uh, uh)
I know you up in it all
Could you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece, piece, piece?

And, oh boy, I know you got to do what you do (uh, uh, uh)
You're making moves
I'm making moves, yo, we cool (what? What? What?)
Stay on your paws, I got your back if you fall
Nothing's too big
Nothing's too small, just go ball (uh, come on)

Dog tags around my neck (uh), the streets are mine
I might leave the heat behind
'Cause in the streets, I'm fine (what?)
That's why a (what?) A sleep 'til nine, out by ten (uh)
Back by ten (uh), sleep 'til nine, do it again
If you love something, let it go (uh huh)
If it comes back to you, it yours
If it doesn't (uh), you never know
You got me, I got you (uh), dog with a dog
Ride 'til we die (what?), If it's on, then it's on

Yo, you can go with your dogs
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece (uh)
Said, you can go with your dogs
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece
'Fore you go bending the law (come on)
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece (uh, uh)
I know you up in it all
Could you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece, piece, piece?

Yo, you can go with your dogs
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece
Said, you can go with your dogs (come on)
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece
'Fore you go bending the law (what? What? What?)
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece (uh, uh)
I know you up in it all
Could you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece, piece, piece?

Yo, you can go with your dogs (piece)
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece
Said, you can go with your dogs
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece
'Fore you go bending the law
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece
I know you up in it all
Could you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece, piece, piece?

Yo, you can go with your dogs
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece
Said, you can go with your dogs
If you make this promise to me
You make it back in one piece
'Fore you go bending the law
