Yelawolf - Do For Love Lyrics






Daddy is up five AM again it's a repeated scene, he's been at since ten
Nine the five hours don't pay enough money
He took a persephone is just gettin' in
Baby's are hungry and mommy is bitching
About bills that he need to go pay while he sitting
Not even five minutes to drink a cold beer before hearing about what was left in the kitchen
Walk at the door before walk to the store, grab his 5 dollars he only had for
Won't get a check to the first of next week and the sentiments of self I can't take anymore
With no heat in the house and no gas in the truck, and his four years old birthday about to come up
Its gun, mess, duck tape, close now

What would you do for love...

She's a single mother living in a hotel in the South Side of the city
And she works at a bar and she strips to get tips
Saving up for a place that is pretty
A tribute at a son to support, still in school with a father that's never around
Took her virginity, promised infinity
And he took off and he hasn't been found
Most of the people she already knows
Have troublesome vibe and they keeping them home
That side of town isn't the place to raise a child
But she's doing her best when there's no where to go
Puts on a skirt, picks up her purse
He knows just what she does
Cause momma can't work at the bar overnight
So his momma is hustling and selling drugs

What would you do for love...

    Wish my Dad was still around to listen to this with me... He was an old coal miner from West Virginia... We never connected musically because Love Story came out one year after he died... It helped me mourn him so much. It's like my Dad wrote Yela's past 3 albums (Love story, Hotel, Trial by Fire). I know my Dad is vibing with me hearing it through me now though. Slumerica, We are legion.

  71. N.... ....

    Fave.
    Hits deep. The first verses of this song sucker punched me in the gut. I've been the man with no gas, no way to pay bills, baby's birthday coming. My mind has fantasized all sorts of solutions. It hurts to become that person u never thought u would do things you'd never imagine to keep your family going. But u know the moment u feel it, this kinda love, you'd do ANYTHING for it. It's savage, it's heart breaking, it's the most beautiful thing you'll ever experience.

    N.... ....

    That was beautiful & the most poetic thing I've ever read! I've felt it, I think many of us will do whatever it takes for our kids. It IS Savage, It IS Heart breaking, It IS the most beautiful thing you'll ever experience! That gave me chills!

    N.... ....

    NicholsBabyMomma u got a good ear for music,an must have been through sum shit

  73. B.... M....

    Always on point

  74. L.... ....

    Yela keeps upping the bar, nevwr ceases to amaze, can't believe how amazing the new album is!

    L.... ....

    Terra BatGrrL Esoteric The wait for Love Story, and Trial By Fire were both excruciating times but they were both worth the wait because they are both not only showcases of his diversity, and him showing he's always been here, and he ain't going no where but up, but also 2 classic albums start to finish. Thank you Wolf for always giving us nothing but pure perfection! #SLUMERICAN
