I'm hurting inside

I need some love
On the outside, it will never show/
The pain really hurts and I don't want you to know/
I need some love/
I'm hurting inside/
Not on the outside but on the inside I cry/
Can a thug get a hug/
Can a thug get some love/
A thug is not something that I try and be /
I am who I am and that's just me/
So give a thug some love and just let life be/
I do what I do because I am who I am/
So let me be me and you be you/
I do what I do and you do what you do/
That doesn't mean that my love ain't true/
Can a thug get a hug/
Can a thug get some love/
I'm affectionate, romantic and all of the above/
I'm not possessive and I won't lock you down/
But when I need you to have my back I expect you to be around/
Pound for pound now how that sound/
I can be all yours and you can be all mine/
What be the outcome will be determined through time/
The thought of us together sounds so divine/
If you're out there girl then make me know/
Shake something for daddy and give me a show/
You heard my thoughts now it's time to go /
