T.I. Lyrics
"My Type"

Aye, aye, aye...ya'll gone wish for a nigga like me when I ain't here
Ya know what I'm sayin?
(Think I'm lyin) say goodbye to the bad guy
Bet ya'll appreciate a nigga my type cuz when I die
ain't no mo niggas my type
So just remember me right (4x)
You ain't gotta worry about me no mo
You gone see there's worst than me out there

[Chorus]
Bet ya'll appreciate a nigga my type
Cuz when I die ain't no mo niggas my type
So just remember me right
Bet if I let them suckas kill me tonight
All them haters gone be filled with delight
God forvie me aight
I sacrifice so they could live my life
If necessary I give my life so what you hear in my life
Reputation decorated with stripes
No need for crying at the end of my life, just remember me right

[Verse 1]
When odds against the wall remember where you could you go
Remember who helped you again like he helped you before
Went out they way to let you know that you ain't never alone
They don't respect you, you come get who?, til they left you alone
They taught you how to be weak, we taught you how to be strong,
Taught you not to accept defeat you go all out or be gone
Bet it ain't the same in the streets now that he gone,
He now in heaven on throne exactly whre he belong,
Don't mean that man ain't devastated that his family mourn,
Sons turn to grown men since they daddy been gone
Daughter grew, like him or not he left his family on,
Even prepaid the funeral service he had in the dome,
And now they came to represent, for a stand up gent,
Who walked it like he talked it and always said what he meant,
Impossible to stop him had a head like cement,
Maybe now you'll appreciate a nigga like this (they might)

[Chorus]
Bet ya'll appreciate a nigga my type
Cuz when I die ain't no mo niggas my type (ain't gone be no mo)
So just remember me right
Bet if I let them suckas kill me tonight (Remember me how it was baby)
All them haters gone be filled with delight
God forvie me aight (I made this possible)
I sacrifice so they could live my life
If necessary I give my life so what you hear in my life
Reputation decorated with stripes
No need for crying at the end of my life, just remember me right

[Verse 2]
If they had only knew the main outside the hype
No matter what the situation he always try and do right
Still they gossip and told lie used to take him for granted
Often find it hard to relate somehow they can't understand it
Cuz their respect he gone demand, if there's a problem he handle it
Look adversity in the eye, he never ran from a challenge
They tried to knock him off balance, when the feds came and got him,
Did the time on his head, came home they ain't stop him.
That's why them niggas used to hate him cuz they girl used to jock him
Swear he had the kind of swagger made the world stop and watch him
Plus he possess so much hustle made it impossible to top him
Got better every album haters hate to see him drop em.
They just talk shit from a distance when he around they playin possum
He used to scare them suckers shit that's probably why them niggas shot him
And what it took ain't nothing else they ever could a did about it
So go on and talk shit about him, least you ain't forgot about him

[Chorus]
Bet ya'll appreciate a nigga my type
Cuz when I die ain't no mo niggas my type (ain't gone be no mo)
So just remember me right
Bet if I let them suckas kill me tonight
All them haters gone be filled with delight
God forvie me aight
I sacrifice so they could live my life
If necessary I give my life so what you hear in my life
Reputation decorated with stripes
No need for crying at the end of my life, just remember me right

[Verse 3]
Wanna say sorry to my mama, king and lil mama see me go through
so much drama you could stand a lil thunder,
Never let him see you sweat stay cool as a cucumber stay ready for whatever,
Make him know I'm a do wonders, how he died? On his feet like a man with honor,
Showed you the sky was the limit you could do whatever you wanna,
That's for bubba and domani, dashia and neek neek,
Don't worry bout me uncle phil with me,
And ladies see me witcha gran daddy,
Know you gone miss daddy,
But life ain't always a dream, horrible shit happens,
Hate I let a nigga kill me before I quit rappin,
And get to spend more time witcha I know it'd been happy,
But I had to take them chances, you probly would a been trappin,
Long as I keep that from happenin, ya pappy can die happy,
Keep the wind at cha back and the sun at cha face
Remember winning in ya blood, you were born with what it take, ok

[Chorus]
Bet ya'll appreciate a nigga my type
Cuz when I die ain't no mo niggas my type (ain't gone be no mo)
So just remember me right
Bet if I let them suckas kill me tonight
All them haters gone be filled with delight
God forvie me aight
I sacrifice so they could live my life
If necessary I give my life so what you hear in my life
Reputation decorated with stripes
No need for crying at the end of my life, just remember me right
