Grapes on a Vine (feat. Lil Wayne)

Daddy always told me to be real

Daddy always said that, I should say just what I feel

People, they will judge you cause they just don't understand

You're in it for the long ride, you don't just give up on a man

And like every woman who's been through the fire as well

We ALL got a story half afraid to tell, yeah

People they will judge you 'cause they just can't comprehend

You're headed for the long ride, you don't just give up on a friend

(Now the ones have moved on) Gone to where the sun shines all the time

(We're still standing) Though some might think we've lost our minds

(We shall fulfill) our legacy divine

It's just that we're so different, makes our place a little harder to find

Grapes on a vine (Grapes on a vine)

don't always make sweet wine

Grapes on a vine, yeah,

don't always make sweet wine

Grapes on a vine (Grapes on a vine)

don't always make sweet wine

Might be bitter, but it gets better with time

Momma always said that, it's okay to dream

Momma always warned me things ain't always what they seem (and my momma told me...)

People, they will judge you; leave you sittin' on a shelf

Remember it's a long ride, just don't you give up on yourself

And like every man, who wants to make his mark

We ALL got a secret hidden in our hearts, yeah {We all got a secret}

People they will judge us, 'cause they just don't really see

We're in it for the long ride, just don't you give up on you and me, no!

Grapes on a vine (Grapes on a vine)

don't always make sweet wine

Grapes on a vine, yeah,

don't always make sweet wine

Grapes on a vine (Grapes on a vine)

don't always make sweet wine

Might be bitter, but it gets better with time

Uh, uh

Grapes on a vine, ain't nuttin' sweet

You gotta pay the price, just keep your receipt

I can make the world have a seat on my feet

And I come from New Orleans where the water too deep

Money bring problems, the funny thang 'bout it

Everybody want it, want it 'til they got it

Sometimes I forget and put my trouble in my pockets

Then hang up my pants, now I got monsters in my closet

Get right with me, Miss Wright with me

Die hard, I got too much life in me

Shades on, I'm seein past that

Bittersweet wine, where your glass at?

Toast! You haters are ghost

I make y'all sick, you need a full dose, ha!

And my momma told me do me

and stay away from that fruit tree, because

Grapes on a vine (Grapes on a vine)

don't always make sweet wine

Grapes on a vine, yeah,

don't always make sweet wine

Grapes on a vine (Grapes on a vine)

don't always make sweet wine

Might be bitter, but it gets better with time

Grapes on a vine (Grapes on a vine)

don't always make sweet wine

Grapes on a vine, yeah,

don't always make sweet wine

Grapes on a vine (Grapes on a vine)

don't always make sweet wine

Might be bitter, but it gets better with time

{Do you, do you}

So do you, do you, do yooooooooooou...

(Miss Wright with me) Be your own best friend

(Miss Wright with me) Be your own best friend

(Miss Wright with me, Miss Wright with me) Be your own best friend

(Miss Wright, Miss Wright, Miss Wright with me)

You gotta love on you before anybody else can learn to

You gotta love you, LOve you, yeaaaaah, love you, love you
