When the Love Stops

Still waiting on my one shot
It's a gift and a curse all in one box
It's all downhill when the love stops
I invite everybody to come watch
I transcend through the fake daps
When it gets cold bruh set a snake trap
Use to only focus on the payback
Now I'm starting clean where the Ajax
Clean slate love a have in a dream state
But a clean break will leave a mean ache
Put your guard down whenever you feel safe
Then lose it all in a blink that's an ill fate
They might show love when you winning
But most weren't around in the beginning
So they won't stick around till the end
So I laugh it off and keep on grinning

Had to take a look back in hindsight
I was always moved by the limelight
Seen squares get iced like a Klondike
So I had to show and prove I could rhyme tight
Before I had a future Mekhi Phife
I was looking for support that I couldn't find
Always a head behind had to wait in line
The rap game is a bitch, had to make her mine
Everybody wanna a piece of the action
But don't nobody wanna piece of a fraction
They all want a bigger slice of the pie
But the money is the only thing that attracts them
What happened to the passion and pain?
They rap for the fame 20 stacks on a chain
Like a storm man they clouding your brain
Downpour won't stop till you drown in the rain
