(talking:) |
|
Check your boy out man |
|
We operating on our low desires, listen |
|
(Hook:) |
|
Ain't it funny, how things go |
|
The more you live, you deal with parts of life you didn't know |
|
Chasing dreams, and over nothing going on a limb |
|
You bringing others in your troubles, jepordizing them the question is |
|
Ain't it funny, and kinda strange |
|
Just when you think you got it figured out, the game change |
|
Mama said, what'll make you laugh will make you cry |
|
Living and knowing we ain't perfect, but we gotta try |
|

|
Lil' sister was fast growing up, nothing could hold her |
|
Thugs attracted her, her own mother couldn't control her |
|
Big brother knew the game, and everytime that he seen her he told her |
|
Concentrate on other things, focus on men when you're older |
|
She met a hustler, who was bad news and everyone sensed it |
|
Some of her friends knew his history, and they warned her against it |
|
She wasn't tripping, cause his lifestyle and his money had trapped her |
|
But the first time that she went against the grain, he slapped her |
|
And beat her down like a man, throwed hew clothes in the street |
|
Told her brother and with tears in his eyes, he loaded his piece |
|
And came searching for that coward, went straight to his hood |
|
Ready to sacrifice his own freedom, for the love of his blood |
|
When he caught him he pistol whooped him, shot holes in his Benz |
|
Went to jail attempted murder, fifteen years in the Pen |
|
But for his kin, if he had to do it again he'd still get him |
|
He wasn't gone for a month, and his lil' sister was right back with him |
|

(K-Rino:) |
|
You met a young lady, who still possessed the mind of a girl |
|
Full of love and trust, but sheltered and not lead to the world |
|
Saving herself, the kind that no man was supposed to touch |
|
Inexperienced, and had never been exposed to much |
|
Fed her some game and reeled her in fast, you was the first |
|
Instead of bringing out the best in her, you reach for the worst |
|
Heavily influenced by love, she did whatever he said |
|
He talked her in to letting another female, into the bed |
|
Trying to live out fantasies, with a wife who was down |
|
But what you thought you wanted, back-fired and got switched around |
|
Didn't know, the other female was a veteran too |
|
Who was able to do a few things, better than you |
|
Now your girl starts to doubt you, it's no longer about you |
|
You get home from work, and they already done started without you |
|
You on the outside looking in, was fly and conceded |
|
Your wife got turned out, and it's obvious you no longer needed |
|
(Hook) |
|
(K-Rino:) |
|
Over time, long relationships start to fail |
|
Use to be easy to distinguish, now it's hard to tell |
|
Who is real and who is counterfeit, the truth from lies |
|
People you thought you really knew, start showing other sides |
|
Claiming it's love but come up missing, when it's time to show |
|
Grew up together, now you treating me like I'm the foe |
|
Know all your secrets all the dirt you did, but kept it well |
|
And even if we turned to enemies, still wouldn't tell |
|
Blood sweat and tears, are mandatory that's the price |
|
How you gon reap life's benefits, without a sacrifice |
|
Trust in that you gotta scuffle, to come up and stack |
|
You bout to crack, because you gave all and got nothing back |
|
How come our children are so angry now, and quick to bust |
|
They disappointed in this B-S, that they get from us |
|
But you'll die, if unjustified or you seek |
|
Elijah said, think five times before you speak yeah |
