City High - The Only One I Trust Lyrics






This is a ghetto fairytale

It was two weeks before my son's birthday
D.T's ringing my bell (Ma'am we need to ask a few questions)
They told me the Raid would go down anyday
If I was smart I wouldn't tell (no no)
It was all over him
My boyfriend the criminal
He was caught up in the game
And the FBI warned if I didn't go along
They'd make sure I never saw my son or my boyfriend again

(Remember this you are a convicted felon on probation)
But how could I just turn him in?
(Ma'am if you don't help us, you'll never see your son again. Trust me)
He would always tell me

I know your afraid
But you can't leave me now
Lean on my shoulder
Soon it'll be over
I'm trying to build our future
I'm doing this for us
Your the only one I love
The only one I trust

I'd been with him for about 4 years and I swear
He gave me anything I could dream (anything)
But the life that he lived was a nightmare I swear
Wasn't clean he was blinded by the green
All the murderous capers, the trips to Las Vegas
Making millions from papers blood stained (nasty money)
Stuck in my head like a song, I saw every sin I knew every wrong
And if I don't go along, I'd never see my family again

(no no no)
(hmmm)
(hey hey hey)
(So whats it gonna be?)
(I know my rights)
(One phone call from me and your son's going to a foster home.
Answer the question)
(I don't have to answer shit)
He would always tell me (tell me yeah)

I know your afraid
But you can't leave me now
Lean on my shoulder
Soon it'll be over (soon it'll be over)
I'm trying to build our future
I'm doing this for us
Your the only one I love
The only one I trust

It was Saturday evening, we were home watching TV
He looked in my eyes I wanted to cry (oh)
My son ran to hug him, he kissed him goodnight
How could I do this, could I do this? When I knew he would die
FED's rushed the door, yelled 'everyone on the floor'
My man pulled his knife and started to fight
He was a soldier of cause in a war he couldn't win
But without him I'm lost
So I stood by his side and went down with him

Oh
No no no no
No no no nooo
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh
Oooooh
He would always tell me

I know your afraid
But you can't leave me now
Lean on my shoulder
Soon it'll be over
I'm trying to build our future
I'm doing this for us
Your the only one I love
The only one I trust
I know your afraid
But you can't leave me now
Lean on my shoulder
Soon it'll be over
I'm trying to build our future
I'm doing this for us
Your the only one I love
The only one I trust

I'm sorry...
I'm so sorry...

    This song breaks my heart

  2. T.... A....

    Dude def sounds controlling and manipulative. Once you become spellbound youll do anything. Lotta deaths happen over these type of relationships

  3. L.... W....

    I remember being in middle school listening to this song for over and over still one of my fav songs

  4. L.... J....

    You messed up a little bit on the lyrics, but I love this song

  5. l.... T....

  6. C.... M....

    One hell of a song that sadly our imagination would make the music video that deep...3/19/2018

  7. S.... ....

    Truly amazing

    Love the song. I just wanted to provide a few comments to the posts in the comments section and the person who posted the song.
    1. The boyfriend pulled out his nine - listen closely. Plus, he'd never have a chance with knife against all their guns. I know you might think he sacrificed himself but not with a knife. He went down with "guns a blazing".
    2. "Your" shows possession. You're is a contraction for "you are". YES; most people who read the word and I understood what you meant when the word "your" was incorrectly used. However, in love, one way for people to do better is to be taught or reminded how to do better. I'm not judging anyone or condemning you. I know some people might call you stupid or names; I'm not doing that. I just want you to present your comment in the best light possible.
    One love people

    L.... J....

    Bless your heart.

    Yes the song is wrong because she decided to pretty much die leaving a child behind ..but this is reality. This is what a lot of people go through. To others the point to this song is selfish and stupid. But to others including me it speaks to us because we either have lived something similar are living this now or know someone who is..
    I love this song. It speaks the truth for those who understand this struggle.

    K.... T....

    That ain't a struggle? She rather die for her partner than be alive and be a mother to her own kids? Your saying a lot of girls do that? Choose the troubled boyfriend over her kids? That's just an idiot

  12. V.... W....

    This song is life

    V.... W....

    True dat

  13. B.... B....

    To the person who made this video:
    Every where you wrote YOUR, substitute it with YOU'RE*
    It's sad how many people of all ages doesn't know the difference between YOUR and YOU'RE :/

  14. K.... A....

    He pulled his knife and started to fire??? Now you KNEW that shit didn't sound right!

    K.... A....

    Taylor Suarez "his 9 "that a gun

    K.... A....

    Fight. The lyrics are literally right in the screen lol

  15. K.... A....

    i dont think everyone realizes that this man was taking care of her and her son. She isn't choosing her son over anyone, she said that she couldn't watch him go down so she went down with him.

  16. L.... D....

    I cant see this on mobile :(

  17. K.... A....

    I remember this song, I used to listen to it everyday when I way younger. It was never on youtube. And I lost the CD since I was a youngling. Well.. I still am but this song <3

  18. V.... G....

    sadly i have met people who would probabally do this for there man. i wouldnt do it for him i would of got outta town when he said it woulda gotten out of town.

  19. s.... ....

    I'd say to that guy, "you're trying to build our future by killing and pulling a knife on Feds? Get the F out of my house and away from my son." I'd never die for a man when a child was involved. And anyone who does that is no "Man."

    s.... ....

    stkc922 either way they were both going to be separated from their child

  20. b.... ....

    Yeah, they died. If you listen you can hear the gunshots in the background

  21. M.... R....

    Pretty sure she is talking about them both dieing. That why she said "Wish i knew he would die" and if he pulled out a knife to fight the feds, then they are going to fire. Just sayin.g

  22. k.... b....

    They aint talking bout dying they are talking about getting busted and going down together ...you know locked up for those who havent delt with tha streetz....listen before you commet

    k.... b....

    kasper beautiful h wah they were Hon a get busted but if you listen closely she actually says he pulled out his nine. meaning his gun and started shooting. with most people in the game. there is only ever I a motto death before dishonor. she couldn't lose him so she went down with him. it was a gun fight that they couldn't win.

  23. t.... h....

    glad your all enjoying the song! i looked for months for this song in vieo. so i made onenstead!its a bad ass song, BUT i'd never choose my man over my son, and anyone who actually cared about you wouldenr expect you to :)

  24. K.... A....

    im sorry i could not choose a man over my own child but i would have had to tell him they was coming when they told me im sorry im not a snitch.
    i love this song my ex-dude sold drugs they could neva hold on anything other than assult but he got out the game cause of his moma even though everyone thought it was me i didnt care what he did i still love him and i will get him back but the army got him now

  25. m.... ....

    I love this song it is so sad...

  26. P.... R....

    i love this song but AINT NO WAY IN HELL im gon die for any man over my child!!!!

  27. G.... ....

    The guy in the song is a creep. I was a drug dealer for 15 years and I never asked a husband or boyfriend to take the blame-just to not snitch, and it's more acceptable for a girl to give all the blame to a guy.

    G.... ....

    I have lived this kind of live. Not that I knew about it. But No man is that important 2 me that I would had left my son behind. But this is just a song, Dont bother get Mad about it. Love the song 😊❤
