Ghostface Killah featuring Mary J. Blige/Tekeitha “All That I Got Is You.” From Ironman (1996)
Everything about this song is moving. The strings, the keys, and Ghost’s narrative combine to drain all of the emotion out of the listener. In my opinion, it’s one of the 20 best hip hop songs of all time and definitely near the top of Wu-Tang’s catalog.
“Sometimes I look up at the stars and analyze the sky/And ask myself was I meant to be here…why?”

awwwwwwww man.. good shit. i definitely remember when moms was hustlin 2 jobs and i was wearing my brother\’s hand me down shirts, all stretched out in the neck and hangin off me. 4 of us in 1 br hustlin the living room as a 2nd bedroom for the parents. pops was only there as a cop but never chipped in a dime. but that was back then. things are MUCH better now, for everyone.
Man, this is one of my favorite songs of all-time… The first time I heard this song I cried… Ghost was spitting some real shit…
