Let It Rain

Sometimes we talk too much
But we say too likkle
Act like we don't need no love
But our hearts still fickle
A lil drizzle let it rain let it pour again
Tonight I talked to a ghost
Told me a story up close
Told me the path that he choose
Had me shook to my bones
Sorry I gotta impose
Careful the path that you tow
Careful the seeds that you sow
Really they're likely to grow
Live with high and the lows
Tell you the life that he knows
Smoking a spliff with the bros
Fuck with a couple of hoes
Drink and stumble back home
Couple of days in a row
Next day he'll do it again
Nothing like taking it slow
Now it's taking it's toll
All about getting this dough
Just to lessen the pain
Hardly in touch with his folks
With daddy passing away
Mum lives on her own
Now he had to be brave
Watch how the story unfolds
School his only escape
Exams dashing his hopes
Mummy told him to pray
But fuck talking to God
Fuck he needs to be bold
Fuck the need to behave
His guys could show him the ropes
His guys go show am d way
Na jus to pick up his phone and press
Use oyinbo pic make calls and texts
Hope you getting the scope
E no go too tey
Highest one month u go start
To ball and flex
Just run am first
Destiny called but it's the wrong address
Now in retrospect, let us all digress
When you make the wrong move
Best to withdraw your steps
Don't turn you necks
Cz no one knows what's next
And destiny may call you at the wrong address
Now in retrospect, let us all digress
When you make the wrong move
Best to withdraw your steps
Don't turn you necks
Cz no one knows what's next
Back from the Intermission
Mehn homie's now on a mission
May be the loss of a vision
Or some kind of remission
Now I'm painting a picture
2 years wait for admission
Had to give in to pressure
Just to fight the depression
All this time he been the itching
To make it outta the system
But he made a decision
He made a trade with his future
Designed the architecture
To give out love & attention
To women searching for pleasure
In exchange for a treasure
Only lectures he been hearing for a minute
Is a nigga gotta eat
Smoke sessions a reminder
That a nigga gotta Mk it out the street
Fuck living on the mean
Cz money in ur pocket's fucking sweet
Kendrick Lamar money trees first line
Then put it on repeat
Hope u get it now ya bish
Its about to fucking switch and change
Flip the page
Underwent a quick decay
It slipped away
All a nigga feels is pain
Shits insane
Heavy heart linked to chains
Feels disdain
Towards the way he lives today
Thinks again
Can money wash he sins away
Needs to pray
Fuck living out his life this way
This shit is strange
Troubled waters feel the wave
He's sinking again
Gasping for air
Drinking again
Wish daddy was there
Needed a break
Pressed turtle instead
Speeding away
Full speed ahead
Straight to the grave
Can somebody save
But no one is there
No time to retrace
All of his steps
A moment of grace
A prayer was said
To honor his name
Cz now he was dead
Nd shi was the same
He was depressed
With drugs in his brain
It all disappeared
And I could say
Was that destiny had called him
At the wrong address
Now in retrospect, let us all digress
When you make the wrong move
Best to withdraw your steps
Don't turn you necks
Cz no one knows what's next
And destiny may call you at the wrong address
Now in retrospect, let us all digress
When you make the wrong move
Best to withdraw your steps
Don't turn you necks
Cz no one knows what's next
And that was all he said
Before I woke up from bed
I could feel his intent
Through the moment we shared
Not a moment to spare
Had to pick up the pen
Had to write it in red
Before it all disappeared
I could tell that he cared
About his mother on meds
Bout his sisters new dress
Behind all of the tears
Put himself through the stress
For love of opposite sex
And To flex on of his peers
Didn't know he was blessed
And now destiny had called him
At the wrong address
Now in retrospect, let us all digress
When you make the wrong move
Best to withdraw your steps
Don't turn you necks
Cz no one knows what's next
And you can be the best
So don't fold or bend
When you feel distress
Know it's all in your head
Just take a deep breath
And lay it all to rest
If you introspect you'll know it's only a test
Take your time to reflect
Take your time to reflect
Take your time to reflect
Just take your time to reflect
