[LEW: Verse 1]
My sister lost her first child before she could see it
That shit hurt, it broke my mama to pieces
I know we say that everything in this life comes for a reason
But when it happens to YOU it be hard to believe it
Yeah ya n***a cried that night but I kept it a secret
Guess I'm too tough to show emotion and let somebody see it
Life is crazy, I mean look at all the lessons it teaches
Blessings come in many forms, ours came as Amina
Guess this is God's plan
Not for us to understand
Whether I fly or I fall
I always land in his hands
My favorite lesson that I learned from my dad
Is ain't nothing that damn good or that damn bad
I gotta brother and I wonder if we hang out enough
And if we dont will i regret it when im biting the dust
I guess we never make time until out time is all up
Damn im sorry im over thinking too much
But I barely say i love you to the people I love
I got your text my n***a I just ain't replied in a month
Cuz I'm too focused on these followers and building my buzz
Can you blame me? Ain't nobody did it big where we from
I just follow my dreams
And I'm trusting my gut
They say it's one in a million
But I like testing my luck
I roll the dice...
It ain't much time in this life
And most the people that I know ain't ever felt being alive
Damn
Cuz one day when you done and say your goodbyes
You won't regret the "I trieds" you gone regret "neverminds"
I don't know, I guess we gone see in time
But in the meantime ima make the most outta mine
I got a girl, she's my world, she's the one i adore
But i fear that I might wake up and not love her no more
Do those type of things happen?
I'm too young to be sure
Thats the gift and curse of life to never know whats in store
Man im Introverted, i dont really like to speak
But Ill tell you all about me when its on a beat
I get on my knees to see my n***as on they feet
Sometimes i wish that when i talked to god he'd talk to me
But I guess his phone on do not disturb
I can't blame him, whens the last time i been in a church
The only time I really pray is when Im going through hurt
The only time i read a verse is when im spittin a verse
Grew up with my n***a now he locked in a prison
I was sharing rooms with Rob when you come through and kick it
Playing Madden on the sticks, now you stuck in the system
Goddamn n***a what a transition
Yeah we all got demons id be lying if i told you I didn't
But you did some shit that, fuck, i can never forgive it
And the last time we talked you made me make a commitment
To take care of your son now that his father is missing
It make try a lil harder in these songs that ive written
It makes me hop back in the booth whenever i feel like quitting
It makes me believe in myself every time that they didn't
Cuz its kids that look up to me and they watch my decisions
Ms. Tammy another black mother woke out her sleep
Ring ring, Just got the news that she cannot believe
Dropped the phone now them n***as talking straight to her feet
Police held target practice now her baby dead baby in the street
They dont want to see a young n***a be all he can be
Good kid, black skin, with a college degree
Them n***as taking lifes left and right, they more like thieves
But then they try to convince us that all our people are free
The word free, what does that even mean?
Cuz as I look around thats the shit that I never see
My n***as really caged birds and thats the reason I sing
I gotta show'em they fly if they spread their wings
N***a...
