P. Diddy (Puff Daddy): "Claim My Place (Interlude)" Lyrics

Sometimes I try to figure out 

Just why

Why you are the way you are

You ... You make it so hard for me to love you

Hold up now

Listen ... I ain't gonna try to sit here and say I'm perfect

You know 

I mean ... I'm tryin' to do the best I can

with my time here on earth

You know ... You know my mother

Mama always say that I'd be somebody

You know

So you know, I figured that I might as well be great

You know

I mean, it's hard to understand how I am

Some shit you just don't really need to be 

mother fuckin' understanding though

I mean God put me here for a reason

And I'm here to let these mother fuckers know

I've come to claim my place

I've come to claim my place

I'll show you the way

A lot of people don't understand

They'll understand one day though

I just like to make people feel good

I really feel I can do anything

I really truly believe in God that way

So much that I believe in myself

I guess I'm kinda like my father

You know, Who had a relentless spirit

You know

He would stop at nothing to achieve his goal

You now nowadays

A lot of these mother fuckers don't understand that

They gonna have to handle it

Yeah, you feel me

I've come to claim my place

And I ain't gonna stop

I ain't gonna never stop

I thank y'all for ridin' with me

Thank y'all for rockin' with me

through this journey

It's just begun

And I wanna take the time to say

Thank you

Listen to everything he says

I've come to claim my place

I truly appreciate you

And I love ya

Ain't nothin' else to say
