[Verse 1]
I fell in love with a whore way too many times
Way too many times think I better sit it down
Who thought that little black boy would run the city now?
I guess no one really pictured now
And that depression gets the best of me
That's just the Devil steady testing me
But still I give the world the best of me
I'm tryna' explain the pain on my membrane
Girl what happened?
I guess shit changed
I guess life happened
No more texts, no more night capping
No more talks about what might happen
We had a good ride though
I got advice for good pussy and some great convo
We was a great combo, for real
And I think I care more than you know
Really I love you to the depths of my soul
But that ain't something I show
'Cus when I do that's when they head for the road
And I ain't got the gas to chase 'em no more
I'm out here chasing my dreams
I came from nothing that's a beautiful thing
Coming from nothing to a step from your dreams
I'm tryna' tell you my past life
Talking the trap life
Hearing my stories I just wanted my Dad's life
The fast life
Way before his '94 conviction
Way before he got sick with cancer and died in prison
I'm talking Keith Sweat man, a real street legend
I contemplate the day I see heaven so we kick it together
I mean look how far Poodie done came
I got the fame but still broke
Man that shit is a shame
I mean look how far Poodie done came
I got the fame but still broke
It's like I'm rapping for change
