Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah-nah, uh, uh (Lilz produced this beat)

[Chorus]
Times is hard, but I try to keep a smile
Free lil' bro, they keepin' him for a while (Free lil' bro)
Shawty 'posed to hold me up, but she keep me down
It hurt to let you go, but even more if I keep you around (Pain)
Times gettin' hard, so I try to keep a smile (Try)
Free my lil' bro, they keepin' him for a while (Free lil' bro)
Shawty 'posed to hold me up, but she keep me down
It hurt to let you go, but even more to keep you around (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse]
I almost lost myself, I fell in love with this bitch
Watched her break every rules, still fuck with her and shit (Yeah)
Told thе bros I'm done, I'm still fuckin' her and shit (Stupid shit)
And you know how it get, know how it gеt (Let's go)
You know love is blind, it's like Stevie Wonder (Stevie Wonder)
This shit like quicksand the way it pull you under (Pull you under)
This shit like gravity the way it bring you down (The way it bring you down)
If you ain't really love me, why you stay around? (Why?)
Why you? (Why? Why?)
Bro called me from the county, stressin' 'bout court
I'm like, "At least you still fightin', I know some bros who lost" (Call you back)
Flashbacks from the trap, he cookin' up coke (Flashbacks)
I'm talkin' way before rap, stickin' up folks (Grrt, grrt)

How the fuck you watch Meesh get killed and say nothin' to me? (How?)
Ain't spray nothin' for me (How? Like, what?)
Knowin' damn well I was your smokin' gun (You know me, man)
Every time you smelled smoke, pussy, you up and run (Pussy, man)
I'm like, "If I'm your brother, why you ain't up the gun?" (I'm your brother, right?)
Every time you hit my phone, n***a, I up and come (I ain't lyin', homie)
And I up and
[Chorus]
Times is hard, but I try to keep a smile (Try)
Free lil' bro, they keepin' him for a while (Free lil' bro)
Shawty 'posed to hold me up, but she keep me down (She bring me down)
It hurt to let you go, but even more if I keep you around (Ayy, ayy, at all)
Times gettin' hard, so I try to keep a smile (Try)
Free my lil' bro, they keepin' him for a while (Yeah)
Shawty 'posed to hold me up, but she keep me down (Pain, pain)
It hurt to let you go, but even more to keep you around (Even more to keep you around)

[Outro]
Yeah, more to keep you around
