[Intro]
Ayo I saw my mans the other day
He say he needs a handout
Said he had some live and some boys
But it ran out
Partner had a number but connections didn't pan out
And every the road he got is looking like the same route
Told him he can blame it on the cocaine drought
Cause the boys got it rainin all the names came out
Now I don't know nobody dealin
Sittin on the steps outside the library building
[?]
Then I ask about his children
Said he hadn't seen em since they momma tried to kill him
Laugh and told the homie I forgot about that shit
I caught you at thе crib rolling off with a fat bitch
Tried to pull a needle but you hit her with thе mattress
And Jumped out the window buck naked
It was classic
[Chorus]
I paused cause my homie wasn't laughin with me
So I tried to switch the topic up casually
He exhaled smoke and threw his hat in the street
Said Player I don't understand what happened to me
Remember how I used to live extravagantly
White J's scuff free with emaculate tees
Stacked jeans, [?], like they was practically free
Now I'm ramblin the streets in this raggedy tee
I was puzzled by his feeling of inadequacy
Then I saw the track marks when he pulled back on his sleeve
My homie got a habit it seems
Sad because I kinda wanna dap him and leave
But I been down the same road so I put it on front street
Then he stepped back like he wanted to punch me
Told him sit down its been a minute since we hung out
Apologize for bringing up the fact that he was strung out
[Chorus]
Caught me off guard
And I know that life hard
But I really hate to see the homie in the graveyard
Cause all I wanna do is see my people live large
I always try to see my people better than they are
He told me he would clean up
Said it was a promise
Looked me in my eyes to imply he was honest
But I know I would lie too back when I was on that
So even when I nodded I was feelin broken hearted
He the homie though regardless
So I know I gotta trust him
Told him I won't bring it up in any more discussions
Hit him with some ones
Probably bout a dozen
He told me he was staying with his auntie and his cousin
But I saw the bitch later and she told me that he wasn't
Told me that if she saw him she was snitchin to the government
Said he on some foul shit
She ain't even love him
I was buggin
I know he on the needle how she talkin hopeless
Told me he was evil he didn't have emotion
Said they found his babies with they throat slit
And he the culprit
I'm like oh shit
Step back
How she go against blood like that
That's the homie from the way back
Lookin at the stars
What the fuck would make you say that
Nah love I can't even play that
Its hard to light a smoke when you tryna breath
Cause deep down I know she ain't lyin to me
Cause deep down I know she ain't lyin to me
Cause deep down I know she ain't lyin to me
[Outro]
Ay yo your home boys change sometimes
Ay yo the thoughts rearrange in their brains sometimes
Too hard dealin with the pain sometimes
But you gotta let go you can't save they lives
Your home boys change sometimes
The thoughts rearrange in their brains sometimes
Too hard dealin with the pain sometimes
But you gotta let go you can't save they lives
