Black Sheep, White Dove

Three things I don't understand is
Death, women, and, mmph, probably death again
If it wasn't for my pen, I probably would be dead
But instead it was Mama, Prince, and MJ, damn
They said

Baby, I gotta drift away
I drift away so far away
Baby, I gotta drift away
I drift away so far away

Ooh ooh, oh oh
Ooh ooh, oh oh oh
Ooh ooh, oh oh
Oh, oh-oh oh-oh

I see you in the stars, I see you in my heart
I see you in my soul, I hear you from afar
You saying, "Take care my love, farewell until next time"
But this is the shit that make a grown man cry
A blink away from tears, her angel in my ear
That tell me that I'm out, and it'll soak up all the fear
And now I'm never scared, so never's never too long
'Til I heard her voice saying goodbye and now she gone, told me

Baby, I gotta drift away
I drift away so far away
Baby, I gotta drift away
I drift away so far away

Ooh ooh, oh oh
Ooh ooh, oh oh oh
Ooh ooh, oh oh
Oh, oh-oh oh-oh

I lived my whole life knowing you was gonna go before your time
I knew you was sick, but you lied tryna tell me you was fine
And in my mind I was tryna make it the truth
Knowing that your mortality would chuck up the deuce
That's why I never really wanted to get close to you
That's why I never did what a son was supposed to do
That's why I'm sad inside, I said I'd never cry
But I look in your eyes when I look in the mirror
One blink and then I tear up like

Baby, I gotta drift away
I drift away so far away
Baby, I gotta drift away
I drift away so far away

Ooh ooh, oh oh
Ooh ooh, oh oh oh
Ooh ooh, oh oh
Oh, oh-oh oh-oh

(Hey, we ain't done yet!)
And if mama was still alive, she would probably want me to shit, ay, on, uh
All of these rappers that think that they doin' some shit (ooh)
Aww (yeah), that shit is cute, see that shit is cute
See that is the shit that make me wanna flip
And then stomp on a nigga like I was a Q
I think it's my cue

Who would've though that it'd be Julia's bad son
Who would've though that it'd be Julia's bad son
Who would've though that it'd be Julia's bad son

Have you ever been slept on so bad
Every time you see a mattress, it just made your ass mad
So you stayed up late night, cookin' up a plan
Just to shit on everybody when they see that you the man
I'm just sayin', I was such a black sheep
I was just a nigga with a vision and some acne

I was tryna get it, but I wouldn't 'cause the system said I wouldn't
But I still left the state, when my PO said I couldn't
And I still made that tape, when my pockets said I shouldn't
50 dollars and a one-way buddy pass bookin'
What's behind me? I don't know, 'cause the back I'm never lookin'
Name a verse that I ain't cookin', name a day that I ain't pushin'
Name a opportunity that's in my face that don't get tooken
Your favorite new rapper number 4, 3, 2, but I'm the one

Who would've thought that it'd be Julia's bad son
Who would've thought-

You my boost of inspiration when I'm running out of hope
You my confidence in yeses when the world is sayin' no
You the reason why I hustle, you what keeps me on my toes
You a blessin', you a blessin' and I hate to see you go

You my boost of inspiration when I'm running out of hope
You my confidence in yeses when the world is sayin' no
You the reason why I hustle, you what keeps me on my toes
(At the end of the day, I still belong to you)

Hey mama (yay)
Hey mama (yay)
Hey mama
(At the end of the day, I still belong to you)

Mom, where you get them wings from, pretty? (Hey mama)
Where you get them wings from, pretty? (Hey mama)
I see you got the same smile, but where you get them wings from, pretty? (Hey mama)
Where you get them wings from, pretty?

Please don't say that's what I think it is
Where you get them wings from, mom?
Where you get them wings, from pretty?
Talk, talk (hey mama)
Wings from, pretty

Break in your heart that
Killed your only
Peace of mind or
Love and trust
People are
