All I Need Lyrics

[Chorus: Method Man & Streetlife]
You're all that I need, I'll be there for you
If you keep it real with me, I'll keep it real with you
Loving your whole steez, it be in there boo
On top of that you got the good power-U

[Verse 1: Method Man]
Shorty I'm there for you anytime you need me
For real girl, it's me in your world, believe me
Nothing make a man feel better than a woman
Queen with a crown that be down for whatever
There are few things that's forever, my lady
We can make war or make babies
Back when I was nothing, you made a brother feel like he was something
That's why I'm with you to this day boo no fronting
Even when the skies were gray
You would rub me on my back and say, "Baby, it'll be okay"
Now that's real to a brother like me, baby
Never ever give my pussy away
And keep it tight, aight

And I'ma walk these dogs so we can live
In a fat-ass crib with thousands of kids
Word life, you don't need a ring to be my wife
Just be there for me and I'ma make sure we

Be living in the fucking lap of luxury
I'm realizing that you didn't have to fuck with me
But you did, now I'm going all out, kid
And I got mad love to give, you my nigga
[Chorus]
You're all that I need, I'll be there for you
If you keep it real with me, I'll keep it real with you
Loving your whole steez, it be in there boo
On top of that you got the good power-U
You're all that I need, I'll be there for you
If you keep it real with me, I'll keep it real with you
Loving your whole steez, it be in there boo
On top of that you got the good power-U

[Verse 2: Method Man]
I got a Love Jones for your body and your skin tone
Five minutes alone I'm already on the bone
Plus I love the fact you got a mind of your own
No need to shop around you got the good shit at home
Even if I'm locked up North you in the world
Rocking three-fourths of cloth
Never showing your stuff off, boo

It be true me for you that's how it is
I can be your Knower, you can be my Wiz
Then I can be your Sun, you can be my Earth
Resurrect the God through birth
Best believe

[Chorus]
You're all that I need, I'll be there for you
If you keep it real with me, I'll keep it real with you
Loving your whole steez, it be in there boo
On top of that you got the good power-U
You're all that I need, I'll be there for you
If you keep it real with me, I'll keep it real with you
Loving your whole steez, it be in there boo
On top of that you got the good power-U

About

Genius Annotation

The 4th track from Method Man’s debut album “Tical” (1994).
This classic song became immediately a classic in the ‘90s, thanks to the heartfelt lines that provide a perfect picture of Meth’s love for this woman, in a moment where rap music was considered to be deeply misogynist.

The track received so much attention, that would eventually be remixed several times by RZA and Puff Daddy, to become a Grammy winning, smashing hit in 1995, thanks to Mary J. Blige collaboration.
