[Intro: DMX]
Uh

[Verse 1: DMX]
Now there's two ways we can do this: keep it real or front
I know you got what I need and I got what you want
And the hunt for soulmates is all over for us
We could go away where nobody would know it was us
Leave behind all the fuss, the studios, pictures
No autographs, just laughs when I'm wit' ya
I know what it's like when they know you now
But bark at your dog, baby, and I'll hold you down

[Verse 2: Mary J. Blige]
Time and time and time again
I knew that our love had to end
But now it's gone so very far
That I can make a brand new start
I thought that we were meant to be
Be one big family
But I was weak and loved you still
No matter what you did, I could forgive

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]
All I need is sincerity (All I need)
All I need is sincerity

[Verse 3: Mary J. Blige]
Thinking 'bout you all the time
Never seemed to cross my mind
How you could take the time to kill
Everything our love had built
I never knew how you could hide
Every time you told a lie
But now I know why you're so cold
But I don't understand
Now that you set me free
I truly think that we
Could find love separately
I need sincerity
One thing I'm not is weak
I'll always stand alone
But my heart is not made of stone
So I'll go on, on

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]
All I need is sincerity (All I need is sincerity, all I need)
All I need is sincerity

[Refrain: Mary J. Blige]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 4: Nas]
Chipped tooth don
Nasty, blue ice Timbs on
Screwface, half moon part, my tattoos dark
On a scale of tough criminals, nothing to call me
I'm a rare individual, young and I'm bossy
Guess it come from a rough life, cuffed at night
Letting off hot lead that bust from iron pipes
I'm the type that had to shed blood
Pray to the ghost of dead thugs, dead blocks that spread drugs
Fled from the cops 'til my first joint dropped
I'm still wit' my hood, hollow points still in the Glocks
But I've been shitted on by these high class hoes
Even these chickens did me wrong, I was just getting on
So I turned cold, giving 'em hard dick and straight to the hole
Like Rod Strickland, it was taking its toll
I needed someone I could hold in my darkest hours
A strong couple is a blessing and the heart is the power
Give me someone I could trust, not just a hottie to bone
Does she love Escobar or love Nasir Jones?
Let me know so I could cop her the stones
What's clear to me is sincerity
Somebody I could call my own, yeah

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]
(All I need is sincerity)
I never knew why you could hide
Every time you told a lie
I just wanna know why
(All I need is sincerity)
Oh why, oh why, oh oh why
Why oh why why why
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

[Refrain: Mary J. Blige]
Oh, oh, oh, oh (Is sincerity)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh (Is sincerity)
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Outro: Mary J. Blige]
(All I need is sincerity)
I never knew why, never wanted to know why
Why you could hide every time you told a lie
(All I need is sincerity) All
(All I need is sincerity) All I need is sincerity
(All I need is sincerity) You, you, you and me
(All I need is sincerity) Oh, oh, oh, oh
