Tears

I got tears in my eyes for the people that I lost
I got scars on the inside from the battles that I fought
I blame me for everything when it really ain't my fault
Nigga Practice what you preach that's the shit that I was taught

I needa mill before a deal I'm tryna go live like a boss
My mama tld me son slowdown u gotta crawl before u walk
Shorty wanna fwm cuz she see I got the sauce
Growing up I learned don't fw them niggas from across

But ion really got no ops I'm too focused on my passion
I was 10 years old when I fell in love with rappin
I tld my family if I stick with it I'll make it happen
Now every instrumental I hop on I be snapping

I could never flex cuz growing up I never had shit
Living wit my family members sleeping onna Pallid
Dropped a couple tears but I rolled with watever happened
The struggle was real I swear to god this shit is tragic

Grandma passed in 2015 it left me sadness
Then my uncle passed a year later this shit is madness
I wish I can make em reappear sum like magic
These suicidal thoughts then turnt a nigga Savage

My city like a jungle everywhere it's Jurassic
Don't tell me u love me if yo heart made outta plastic
Niggas tlking tuff on the net but they be acting
Facebook will get u marked don't get killed over a status

When I was up they was up we was all in
Everybody taking shots we was balling
But when I went down nobody helped me from falling
They only there when u at the top or inna coffin

Now an days I can't get no sleep I be exhausted
Seen a lot of shit mentally I think I lost it
Chicago known for them homicides so I be cautious
If a nigga think shit swisher sweet ima off it

I'm not wit the drama I put bullshit to the side
People tell me take the high road but I'm done tucking my pride
I love being in the dark but I hate escaping the lights
I love being by myself outta mind and outta sight

Ikno shortys 12 and 13 and they hopped up off the porch
Ditching school only thing up in the book bag is the torch
And if they catch a op they gotta leave they brains onna floor
That's how niggas live when they life Deep inside of a shore

Now an days u gotta tote a gun jus to walk to the store
Cuz if u run into yo ops u gotta let that 40 roar
u get caught slipping u get hit up they gon leave yo body gore

I hope yo parents raised u right u better be ready for war
Cuz u a automatic target soon as u walk out the door
U just a number to the city don't get added to the score
U only get 1 life to live no yo life can't be restored
