SADBOY

I write sad songs for sad boys
l write love songs for lost girls
Yeah
I think we got it
Lost girls
I write sad songs for sad boys
I write love songs for lost girls
Lost in my own mind
Told em it's my world

Vivid memories of my back bloodied back in the back seat of a Nissan
This ain't no casual dance
It ain't no throwing the hands
It ain't no peace signs
Psychologist said I need some me time
The crime rate flooding up my free time
My life changed at the sight of my children
But I still got a couple voids that I could fill in

Inside of my head all day
It took twenty long years just to word my pain
And it became much more than just pen on page
It can be so freeing and so much like cage
But, girl it ain't no other way around it
When you learn to swim risk downing
No, I don't struggle with the universal truths
I just try to wage a war and pay my dues
I was just a little old than you when I saw that the world work a little bit different
They can paint any lie they want
Make it look like the truth when you look from a distance
And it hurts me to tell you that
But I just gotta tell you the facts
You a couple shades darker than your sister
So the world gon' treat you different
I ain't tryna beat around it
I'm just telling you the truth girl

I write sad songs for sad boys
l write love songs for lost girls
But I don't rest rest when it's crunch time
Ain't no off days in my world
I guess I gotta carry the weight
I guess guess it's just a test of my patience
I guess it ain't no other way
I think of all the time that I wasted

Oh, I would burn the whole world down if they ever take you from me
I'm just being honest
No forgiveness for the opposition
I guess
Resort to violence cause they left em' with no option
I been raising a glass
Yeah, I been making a toast
I been putting it up
Yeah, I been doing the most
Now I say it with my chest out
Every ego with a badge love to profile
We been living in a segregated city
Been outlined in red lines
Ain't no pity for the poverty stricken
My life changed at the sight of my children
Just to make it we been robbin' and we stealing
Inside of my head all day
I swear the memories I got will push me to my grave
I wish I was a little more patient
Been too obsessed with my greatness
Try to bury my pride, as if I'm granted any option
Life on the line, my mouth running like a faucet
Twenty years to word my pain
But I stay ready to ride because I ain't no lame
For real

I write sad songs for sad boys
l write love songs for lost girls
But I don't rest rest when it's crunch time
Ain't no off days in my world
I guess I gotta carry the weight
I guess guess it's just a test of my patience
I guess it ain't no other way
I think of all the time that I wasted
