Deeper Than It Seems

Once upon a time I was really on my own shit
Where I'm from gotta get it out yo own way
& if a nigga test you, gotta set him straight
We ain't never used to winning dont know how to feel
& we reckless young n***** don't know how to act
Momma can you wipe them tears imma get it right
Imma fight till I die Imma fight for mines
we ain't playing bout my brothers we gone fight for life
Bout my brothers I ain't playing I'll take a life
I was thinking to myself TS get it right
All these signs I've been seeing told me I'm the one
For the nights she had to cry I'm gone make em cry
For the nights she had to stress imma make em stress
For the nights she never slept they will never sleep
For the nights she had to pray I'm gone make em pray
All the nights she had to cry I'm gone make em right
Free my brother out that cell man I miss his face
Many years that I counted I ain't seen his face
Tell me how we living life if we ain't living right
Tell me how I'm living happy when I never smile
Tell me how I'm posed to trust when u never right
Tell me how I'm posed to love when the love is fake
wake me from this nightmare please I wanna make it right
Thinking back when i was young & I was living right
Demons in my head I can barely sleep at night
Fight w me not against me show me that u down
Cus if I hold u & u don't hold me imma let it go
I get attached way to quick its gonna hurt me most
Once upon a time I was really on my own shit
Where I'm from gotta get it out yo own way
& if a nigga test you gotta set him straight
We ain't never used to winning dont know how to feel
& we reckless young n***** don't know how to act
Momma can you wipe them tears imma get it right
Imma fight till I die Imma fight for mines
We ain't playing bout my brothers we gone fight for life
Took him out the game at 16 this shit isn't right
We should choose our own poison life dont give a fuck
That we die before we live we never had a chance
Heard that bullet took his shine they threw him in the dirt
Mommas crying families plottin they tryna hide the hurt
I lost a couple no goodbyes & that shit really hurt
That my n***** really gone & they ain't coming back
That The world is still spinning but them two is stuck
Ain't no cap I think about it all the fucking time
If I was I gone would they care would I make a difference
or would they line me up w the ones forgotten
RIP to what it was but it'll never be
& that boy was so cold he never got a chance
could've been a motivation if he found his stride
Think it's best to swollow pride before it get you killed
Think it's best to let it go & let him take control
We gone really ride it out & we gone take it all
If you rockin w me know that it's forever up
and if you beefin don't be lackin keep that k on go
N***** hate you they can't be you so they gone resent
