Canibus - I Honor U Lyrics






[Chorus One: MB^2]
We'll never part (through) sickness and health (health)
You are my heart -- I love you more than I love myself
(Yeahayyeahh) But in the middle of the night
I heard you cryin in your sleep it'll be alright
I'll be there for you (just for you)
if you tell me all your secrets
Yet in the middle of the night
I heard you cryin in your sleep I held you tight
I'll be there for you (youuooooh)
if you tell me all your secrets

[Canibus]
Aiyyo, boy meets girl, boy really likes her
Boy loses contact with girl but he finds her
Girl has no clue that boy is a liar, and he has no honor
So she dates him regardless, cause she thought he was harmless
And he had her believin he was the man she wanted
to spend the rest of her life with -- the words "I love you"
are priceless, unpredictable like rollin dice is
None-the-less, inspite of the frightenin repercussions
you might get, people still risk they necks
Of course it's nice, the feelin of courtship, roses and stuff
Women never get it often enough
And the reason people love they mother so much
besides the fact she carried you for nine months, is trust
It's a five letter word, that should only occur between him and her
before the bees and the birds (WORD!)

[Chorus One]

[Canibus]
Aiyyo I heard a soft moan in the middle of March
Then I felt a powerful force push me forward like a dart
On your mark, get set, GO!
I was off, flagella was my propellor wigglin back and forth
Then I set a course for the border
Mother Nature's karma callin me to the rock of Gibraltar
The competition tried to be smart, but I was smarter
My competitors were swimmin fast, so I swam harder
Submerged in water, prayin to my heavenly father
If I don't make it through I'm a goner
Screamin out "Death before dishonor,"
Because I'm awesomely stronger, my stamina last longer
I was destined to be a son instead of a daughter
XY is the male chromosomal order
One'll stay alive, and survive, the rest'll be dead
Cause I'ma be the one to fertilize that egg [echoes]

[Chorus Two: MB^2]

In the middle of the night
I heard you cryin in your sleep I held you tight
I'll be there for you..
if you tell me all your secrets

[Canibus]
Aiyyo mommy I'm up in your stomach, buggin
Whenever you rub it, I love it
Like a comforters covers you warm as a oven
Your husband -- stubborn, how can you love him?
Smokin cigarettes by the dozen when he knows that I'm comin
Bad move, you hopin that daddy improves
Knowin in your heart that's bull, because he's too cruel
You've been abused, used, you've got, wounds and scars
Think with your mind not with your heart, let's go to grandma's
Terminate the lease, call the landlord
Give your job two weeks notice, pack up the car, and go to New York
What part? They got a little borough called The Bronx, Mom..
And I heard that's where hip-hop is gonna start
Hell yeah! I think we need to be right there
Four months in your stomach and I already chose a career
When you cry, I hear, and I wish I could dry your tears
but I can't cause I'm stuck in here
Five months from bein able to lay against your chest
I can't even hold you in my arms, cause they ain't developed yet
But I swear to you, as to God's Almighty Truth
I'ma be there for you.. I'ma be there for you..

[Chorus One w/ variations]

[MB^2]
Tell me! (Tell me all your secrets)
All.. all.. (Tell me all your secrets)
And I will be there for you (Tell me all your secrets)
Tell me your secrets (Tell me all your secrets)
Oooohoooh, tell me.. (Tell me all your secrets)

Canibus I Honor U Comments
  1. E.... M....

    Jeez. Canibus is legendary, but his storytelling in this video is lackluster. But still mythical. Wish he would do more music videos like this.

  2. A.... S....

    This was when Eminem walked onto his video set and the first time they met.

  3. M.... J....

    We'll never part (through) sickness and health

    You are my heart

    I love you more than I love myself

    But in the middle of the night

    I heard you cryin' in your sleep

    It'll be all right I'll be there for you

    If you tell me all your secrets

    Yet in the middle of the night

    I heard you cryin' in your sleep I held you tight

    I'll be there for you......

    If you tell me all your secrets

    Aye Yo!

    Boy meets girl, boy really likes her

    Boy loses contact with girl but he finds her

    Girl has no clue that boy is a liar, and he has no honor.

    So she dates him regardless, 'cause she thought he was harmless

    And he had her believing' he was the man she wanted.

    To spend the rest of her life with. The words "I love you" are

    Priceless, unpredictable like rollin' dices.

    Nonetheless in spite of the fright

    And repercussions you might get people still risk they necks.

    Of course it's nice the feelin' of courtship

    Roses and stuff, women never get it often enough.

    And the reason people love they mother so much

    Besides the fact she carried you for nine months, is trust.

    It's a five letter word, that should only occur between him and her

    Before the bees and the birds...word!

    We'll never part (through) sickness and health

    Aye Yo!

    I heard a soft moan in the middle of March,

    Then I felt a powerful force push me forward like a dart.

    On your mark, get set, GO!

    I was off, flagella was my propellor wiggling back and forth.

    Then I set across for the border, Mother Nature's ?comma?

    Calling me to the rock of Gibraltar.

    The compitition tried to be smart but I was smarter.

    My competitors was swimmin' fast so I swam harder.

    Submerged in water, prayin' to my heavenly father

    If I don't make it through I'm a "goner."

    Screaming out death before this honor, because I'm awesomely

    Stronger, my stamina last longer. I was destined to be a son

    Instead of a daughter, XY is the male chromosomal order.

    One'll stay alive, and survive, the rest'll be dead

    'cause I'm a be the one to fertilize that egg (echoes out)

    We'll never part (through) sickness and health

    In the middle of the night

    I heard you cryin' in your sleep I held you tight

    I'll be there for you....

    If you tell me all your secrets.

    Aye Yo!

    Mommy I'm up in your stomach, buggin'. Whenever you

    Rub it, I love it like a comforters covers you warm as a oven.

    Your husband...stubborn, how can you love him.

    Smokin' cigarettes by the dozen when he knows that I'm comin'.

    Bad move, you hopin' that daddy improves.

    Knowin' in your heart that's bull, because he's too cruel.

    You've been abused, used, you got wounds and scars.

    Stick with your mind not with your heart, let's go to grandma's.

    Terminate the lease call the landlord. Give your job two weeks notice

    Pack up the car, and go to New York. What part.

    They got a little borough called The Bronx, Mom..

    And I heard that's where hip-hop is gonna start.

    Yeah, I think we need to be right there. Four months

    In your stomach and I already chose a career. When you cry

    I hear, and I wish I could dry your tears, but I can't 'cause I'm stuck

    in here.

    Five months from being able to lay against your chest

    I can't even hold you in my arms, 'cause they ain't developed yet.

    But I swear to you, as the God Almighty Truth

    I'm a be there for you

    I'm a be there for you.

    We'll never part (through) sickness and health

  16. d.... c....

    That sister in this video is stunning

  17. C.... ....

    This is what hip hop is missing...lyrics, beats, and teaching...thank God I was born in the 80's and grew up in the 90's.

  18. h.... K....

    This song inspired me to take care of my mamma after my dad passed

  19. T.... A....

    Love the way he makes the moves while rapping.

  20. D.... O....

    Music that forever lives on in your souL🙏

  23. A.... W....

    Getting Nas vibes from this

  24. w.... h....

    no thumbs down should ever go to this song. EVER

  25. K.... V....

    This song goes out to all the Starks of Winterfell.

  26. M.... J....

    One of my favorites growing up, powerful message, people can’t even comprehend the level of genius this mad was on👏🙌🏽💪🏽🧠

  27. D.... B....

    Content is nice but the song is trash. Bars are pretty weak. I'm lost reading the comments. I don't get it. Not one bar stood out and held any weight. Dissapointed.

  28. S.... M....

    rock this nuff! even though my Earth failed The God

  29. M.... M....

    The fact that there was no Happy ending made this song so BULK UP!!! So to Canibus, "SALUTE!!!

  30. V.... R....

    117 dislikes are from mumble rappers

  31. V.... B....

    What sample was this ?

  32. A.... J....

    2019 always bumpin r.i.p momma

  33. c.... ....

    On God back in the day I thought it was Destiny's Child on the hook.....dunno who these broads are in the video though lol

  34. J.... W....

    Canibus is a genius rapper the Albert einstein of rap

  35. D.... Y....

    Flagellum was my propeller

  36. S.... j....

    A beautifully written song. Great storyteller.

  37. l.... ....

    I hadn't heard this song in 20yrs until i stumbled upon this video. As a 20 yr old,Buckingham palace is what caught my attention. At 40, this is probably best song on that album. The guitars are lovely.

  38. C.... L....

    Great song

  39. Y.... ....

    This guy only gets like 400k views. He deserves way more

  40. D.... L....

    I put Canibus with DJ Quik as one of the most underrated artists in hip hop...this dude deserves way more acknowledgement and appreciation that he gets. It's obvious that all the so called 'top tier' rappers listen to him whether they admit it or not. Imagine a track with Canibus, Eminem and Andre 3000. (all in my top 5 D.O.A.)

  41. M.... P....

    Who raps about being a sperm cell??

    M.... P....

    One of the dopest lyricists ever

  42. P.... ....

    *2018 & ever ever*

  43. B.... V....

    This production doesn't suit Cannibus's style. Pras maybe, but not Cannibus.

  44. K.... E....

    Wow this was great but

  45. E.... B....

    liar and honor rhyme? You sure Can can?

  46. S.... o....

    Lmao you got to love Canibus even on a girl song he can't avoid his aggressive lyrics.

    S.... o....

    Haha true

  47. A.... A....

    Bold character . Still pushing it . Shame on the committee then . Respect his album after 94' .

    A.... A....

    But this was cute

  48. C.... B....

    One of the all time great hip hop videos

  49. o.... ....

    He talking bout his own story shit almost made me tear

  50. J.... S....

    Canibus the goat

  51. M.... P....

    Who raps about being a sperm cell??

  52. S.... ....

    Wtf does Canibus know about honour?
    🖕

  53. M.... ....

    This song had a video ??????????????

  54. Q.... ....

    Scandalous the canibus turned into a television evangelist

  55. I.... T....

    Doesn't work as a record but Bis is a GOAT.

  56. A.... ....

    this was so uncharacteristic for him...

  57. J.... W....

    😇💫😇, LUBBED IT, STILL YOU,

  58. P.... ....

    Brilliant.

  59. O.... ....

    one of the greatest songs ever recorded

  60. G.... C....

    Artist Underrated This Song Underrated

  61. L.... K....

    He's still hard,idgaf about that disaster battle.

  62. J.... D....

    Thank you momma!

  63. D.... N....

    I A M MAN.

  64. S.... ....

    I'd respect his little amount of skill but he got to personal with Em.

  65. S.... A....

    Such a meaningful song, especially since my mama was pregnant with me when this gem was released. ✊🏾

  66. T.... B....

    No curses.....pure facts....#proper

  67. S.... S....

    This song makes me tear up everytime...Reminds me so much of me and my Mom...May God rest her soul 😔

  68. R.... L....

    I loved how the beat changed between the hook & Canibus spitting.

  69. R.... L....

    Canibus best song.

  70. T.... t....

    This is real hip hop.
    Who ever wants to compare rappers for the sake of who's "better". They should go back and do more listening.
    The more you listen without bias the more you will find out the true (real) rappers are unique in thier own way.
    It make no sense to compare.
    Its like who's better Bach or Mozart?
    Who's better van Gogh or Rembrandt?
    The questions you should be asking is why were/are these artists/rappers great?

  71. W.... "....

    If this was the second Single on Can-I-Bus album along with second round KO would of moved more units.

  72. G.... C....

    Voltei no tempo, em fração de segundos. ...q arranjo musical fudidu...(perfeito)
