Stronger Lyrics
[Intro: Marsha Ambrosius & (Dr. Dre)]
I won’t pretend
That I intend to stop living
I won’t pretend
I’m good at forgiving
But I can’t hate you
Although I have tried
I, I
(Later on tonight you might, feel a little sting)
(That’s pride, I'm fuckin' with you)
(Fuck pride, you fight through that shit)
[Verse 1: Dr. Dre]
Like every other hour when I think about you
So now and then I drink about you
Trying to numb the pain with Juice and Gin
It’s like abuse, what’s the use of the bumps and bruises
If we moving towards a losing end
If I’m losing you then I refuse to win
Went from friendship with benefits
You losing your innocence
I can help you reminisce, we in Madrid
On some double-oh seven shit, we off the grid
Parting moments of pleasure, we never thought we’d ever
Suffer the consequences, the problem is, there’s a problem trying to kick this addiction
We probably can't resolve it without causing some friction
This is non-fiction, the definition of a true story
I’m like fuck pride baby that’s the kind of shit you do for me
Suicide it's a suicide, I'm ready to die, you down to ride or what?
I won’t pretend
That I intend to stop living
I won’t pretend
I’m good at forgiving
But I can’t hate you
Although I have tried
I, I
(Later on tonight you might, feel a little sting)
(That’s pride, I'm fuckin' with you)
(Fuck pride, you fight through that shit)
[Verse 1: Dr. Dre]
Like every other hour when I think about you
So now and then I drink about you
Trying to numb the pain with Juice and Gin
It’s like abuse, what’s the use of the bumps and bruises
If we moving towards a losing end
If I’m losing you then I refuse to win
Went from friendship with benefits
You losing your innocence
I can help you reminisce, we in Madrid
On some double-oh seven shit, we off the grid
Parting moments of pleasure, we never thought we’d ever
Suffer the consequences, the problem is, there’s a problem trying to kick this addiction
We probably can't resolve it without causing some friction
This is non-fiction, the definition of a true story
I’m like fuck pride baby that’s the kind of shit you do for me
Suicide it's a suicide, I'm ready to die, you down to ride or what?
[Pre-Hook: Marsha Ambrosius]
I won’t pretend
That I intend to stop living
I won’t pretend
That I’m good at forgiving
But I can’t hate you
Although I have tried
[Hook 1: Marsha Ambrosius]
I still really really love you
My love is stronger than pride
I still really really love you
[Verse 2: Marsha Ambrosius]
Sitting here wasting my time
Would be like
Waiting here for the sun to rise
It’s all too clear
Things come and go
Sitting here waiting for you
Would be like waiting for winter
It’s gonna be cold
There may even be snow
[Hook 2: Marsha Ambrosius]
I still really really love you
Love is stronger than pride
I still really really love you
Love is stronger
I still really love
Love is stronger than pride
I won’t pretend
That I intend to stop living
I won’t pretend
That I’m good at forgiving
But I can’t hate you
Although I have tried
[Hook 1: Marsha Ambrosius]
I still really really love you
My love is stronger than pride
I still really really love you
[Verse 2: Marsha Ambrosius]
Sitting here wasting my time
Would be like
Waiting here for the sun to rise
It’s all too clear
Things come and go
Sitting here waiting for you
Would be like waiting for winter
It’s gonna be cold
There may even be snow
[Hook 2: Marsha Ambrosius]
I still really really love you
Love is stronger than pride
I still really really love you
Love is stronger
I still really love
Love is stronger than pride
[Outro: Marsha Ambrosius]
My love, my love
Stronger than pride
Hey
In love, in love, in love
Oh (harmonized scales) no no
My love, my love, my love
My love, my love
Stronger than pride
Hey
In love, in love, in love
Oh (harmonized scales) no no
My love, my love, my love
