I say fuck Sickle Cell
Praying for my brother, he got it and he in jail
I know they doing him wrong, it be cold in them cells
And they gave him 5 years right after he posted bail
Mama missing work she can't afford them days
I hate this shit for taking away from when she get paid
I'm in this hospital bed thinking take me away
Morphine in my veins, they can't hear what I say
I got school in the morning, I'm in pain and it's late
Missing too many days, so they might fail me like great
On top of dreams, I got school, I can't do this shit
They say that I'm up next so I gotta prove this shit
Used to be the poster child until I blew that shit
Motivation for school, ain't mean to lose that shit
But when your dreams coming true, what you expect me to do
Pain pills on the counter I'm in love with too
They think I pop 'em just for fun, I ain't addicted to drugs
But every time I feel it coming, nip that shit in the bud
And it hurt, the only other girl I almost loved
Left me for my homie man swear that shone is a dub
And what make it even worst, I was strung out in pain
Hospital for a month, doctors getting me straight
October, she ain't call me not one of them days
Man that shit hurt, I was sick and still got played
Blood transfusions and a surgery too
Worst days, I was asking God what did I do
They stick that needle in my arm, and them tears come through
Grab my moms hand tight, 'cause she got Sickle Cell too
All this shit is a struggle, they don't know what we go through
But that month I spent at TMH straightened my view
I got out the same day and dropped "Lionized 2"
Couldn't even walk straight but music's all that I knew
Got a lil fan base, but they gon' hear what I say
I was determined to drop the tape on the same release date
3 tapes, now we back to the cake
Lionized 3, can't you tell that we great
It was October 4th, first time that I felt it
They said it wun' nun', so a nigga just held it
I know they got shit to do, and I ain't tryna be selfish
But these pains killing a nigga, and the pills ain't helping
And it's crazy that last night, I was happy as ever
I was chilling with my girl watching clips of Coachella
She say she loving me forever, fuck doctors and they schedules
And if I die, then she die, then we dying together
Yeah she special, so precious
Yeah I love her 'til this Earth say "forget it"
Yeah I love her, 'til death, and
Bones aching, can't send her the message
She say fuck Sickle Cell, and I say fuck that shit too
Living life to the fullest like there ain't nothing to do
She say there's something to do, and that's spreading the message
So if you never heard of Sickle Cell, I hope now you get it
And I don't want your sympathy, 'cause I'll be strong forever
Just a lil' inspiration made me pull it together
Shaun Sloan hit my back like "Lil' bro you down with SODA"
Then Lexii say "Keep writing," so goddamnit I'ma soldier
And that ain't nothing but these blessings boy I told you
Twenties taking over, tell 'em Free Los up
And that ain't nothing but these blessings boy I told you
Twenties taking over, tell 'em Free Los up nigga, I promise
