Cousins

You're my cousin, the world thought we were brothers
One bed, three bodies sharin one cover
That was normal to us, we aint think nothin of it
But we're only young for so young
Soon we were grown up, or at least we thought it
Candy from the corner store, we never bought it
Runnin through these alley ways knockin down garbage
Got life when my mom caught us
Never knew why you lived with us
Your pops left for meal tickets
Your mom drinks daily til she feels different
Would miss school I just figured you was field trippin
My mom's nephew so she deals with it
Went to court for some months then you moved to my home
Your moms hated mine, I feel that's wrong
We were just a couple kids what they want us to do
I miss when I didn't know the truth

Yea
Your moms got clean so you moved back home
Then we moved south, damn, it feels so long
I'm 26 now, when did we get grown
I'm out in LA on my own
And I can't help but think how you're doin
On the block with them nicks like you're Ewing
Got 2 kids that play the center of your heart
But you went and got a charge and now it seems your records ruined
I can't blame you, this city made you desperate
But you gotta learn to wait for your blessin
You brush it off cause rents due and milk aint gettin cheaper
Plus you feel that i'm not hearin what you stressin
Man, I promise that I do Cuz
I only say this cause i'm not tryna lose cuz
They don't give so you take it, remember have patience
I pray you're around to see me make it
I miss you
