I need the real you
To see, what feelings heal you
So I, can finally feel you
And life, gives you a preview
Of what, my words can teach you
I said, I'd never leave you
I won't, I guarantee you
They won't, ever mislead you
My youngins growing up hateful
Ungrateful of the things we never had
How disgraceful, distasteful, we always causing fatal injuries
Always wanna be beefing whether genderized or racial
Always hear stories of the struggle call them fables
What you finna do when you realize that you're unable
To provide for your family and put food on the table
Cause you out here tryna find yourself a label
That's a name for yourself gift of fame for yourself
Now you sold your soul you should be ashamed of yourself
This not the life you wanted man youse playing yourself
And now you got nobody else in the world to blame but yourself
But trust and believe in me cause it don't gotta end like that
You caused the problem but you gotta make amends like that
Pretend like that, that's how you stop a trend like that
That's how you get certain messages to send like that
Now I want this next verse to hit closer to home
Hit harder than, sticks and stones breaking your bones
Cause I just want you to understand
What my type of tone is
Cause I just wish you'd stop the pain and keep, playing the moments
But I can show you the way because inside I know you hurting
That don't make you worthless it makes you the bigger person
Cause you looking like a snippet, that's the unreleased version
Of your true self, you let yourself get bitten by these serpents
That just feed off of the grape vine
I know that ivy poisons your mind
But at the same time
You itching for some more instead of spreading rumors take time
You making circles while time is just moving in a straight line
Straight running the baseline
Yes
That's the easy way to score
They hold your legs back while you tryna swim to the shore
The venom from the grapevine just keeps you wanting more
Record, report , make you resort to what you've never done before
Of course, can you get high like her expectations?
What's your obligation for excuses that you making?
Cause you buy her all this ice that's dripping like precipitation
Just to keep her quiet from making all of her accusations
Cause jealousy always lacing my blunts
The type of nonsense that just makes me put up a front
Go on the hunt in this life
This anxiety ain't none of your concern
The youngins should live and learn
Your bridges will start to burn
Those gears are starting to turn
Cigarettes and hookah flavor all bad for you but addictive
Slipping but vindictive at the same time
But living how you think you living
Ain't the worst way to live
Will me being there make your pillow softer for the hard nights
You just living your best life
Tryna do some shit that you can't do in the next life
Some people choose happiness while others prefer the sex life
Yeah I know I'm moving while niggas is trapped in the headlights
Just like a coffee bean
A wake up call from the dream
A talent nobody seen
Its freezing 20 degrees
My fingers are in my jeans
My pockets holsters for dreams
For money and what I need
