Sometimes I be deep in my thoughts Thinking bout the people & the dreams I forgot Things change a lot even when it seems like they not I could've sworn this morning Dorothy was asleep at my spot But really 5 years & some days have passed since I seen her A baby on the way I guess the grass was really greener on the other side I couldn't love her like her other guy But I ain't mad Cuz I would have her if I need her I'm a rapper I'm a writer a thinker and public speaker I'm my mothers only hope I am my brothers fucking keeper Keep a flow so fucking cold Could heat it up inside the freezer But till you do the unbelievable they don't believe ya I keep pushing Even when I'm in the lead I need cushion Tell these promoters That I'm over doing cheap bookings So he gon either pay the fee or he gon keep looking My fans serve from Johannesburg to east Brooklyn A lot of people broken and not a lot of us sober A lot of girls legs spread open looking for closure A lot of niggas don't get bold till they empty the holster But in this culture The ignorance gets the most exposure I'm tired of seeing young niggas dying from wild shit Tired of the violence the sad songs the violins The feeling of dividing from people I thought I vibed with Gotta get high to survive inside my environment I'll be smoking till the pain goes away Til the pain goes away And I'll be drinking till the pain goes away Til the pain goes away I tell my momma that I won't be okay no I can't be okay She just tell me that I'm gon be okay I pray for the days I'll be smoking till the pain goes away Til the pain goes away yeah I'll be drinking till the pain goes away Til the pain goes away yeah I tell my shorty no we won't be okay No we can't be okay yeah She just tell me that we gon be okay I pray for the days yeah
