[ Featuring T O P E ]
I pray for peace and solidarity to navigate the hard days
Got too close to the sun
We use to stargaze
Know I'm the reason we no longer do
It's still women by my side but it's no longer you
It was facts at the time that's just no longer true
Started to feel like me or you
And what's a man to do
Break my own heart?
I done that many times
Chasing the luxuries
When will too much
Be enough for me
Done with the f*ckery
Feel like shit stuck to me
Lookin in the mirror some days
Like why she f*ck with me?
Could it be the luxury of possibly being up with me
Or could she be in love with me
It plague me for the life of me
Is spending life with me as good as being the wife of me
The unknown be psychin me
Get in my own way
Bad days the sun shinin
Pulled us outta the mud
These blood diamonds
Who trim the leaves on the family tree
The neighbors can't see what the family see
The world talkin bout what the family did
We built this from the family crib
I'm still workin
2am at mom's crib I'm still workin
They told me I would dilute the market but shit it's workin
Late nights drinking Hennessy
Tryna get rid of the memories
We ain't gotta be enemies
Still got a friend in me
If you ever once kin to me
I hope ya smile when you remember me
But if you don't I understand it too
Would it be different if God gave the upper hand to you
The Paton only good as who you hand it to
Get all the way to the top and can't stand the view
Take a bow nigga
