Tears of Fire

I hold it together because I am strong
Tears burn, I ain't cried in so long

I walk around with these burdens on me
Mentally putting a hurting on me

I'll do that just to protect you
I got you, I never neglect you
But you giving praise to the wrong people
Shawty that make me regret you

Like I won't kill for you or slide down you
Your biggest problem has always been you
Threw dirt on my name to my own people
Damn, I see what you into

But you don't get it, I don't blame you
These lessons you weren't taught
Must've been spoiled, must've been babied
Whatever the reason is, you're lost

Stay out of this nigga, this family business
Your opinion does not matter here
Cause I kill for mine and you not mine
So take your ass over there

Problems get fixed from within
You hate me because you can't win
Projecting your feelings
Butt buddies teaming up like you niggas is twins

I'ma know it all to someone that's always wrong
Be serious nigga, please come on
I'm too passionate, I'm waiting just to be proved wrong

People hate me cause people love me
All that emotion, think with your head
I don't do nothing to no one
I turn myself down just to let you shine instead

But I'm a star, I knew that at 12
I never tried, that's just how I'm built
I never bragged to make you feel less
But you do with me, so please just confess
I'm owed apologies, I'm owed the truth
Not moving forward with shit till they do
Ain't no more arguments, no more disputes

I'm only living the way that I choose
Ask Mike bout it, ask Ant bout it
I'm protecting my peace
Y'all won't drive me crazy bout anything
I don't even want the lease
Leech vibes, that's draining
Y'all don't know the code, y'all need training
Y'all hate the truth but love blaming
Look inside and fight Satan

I'm never tripping
This ain't my first rodeo
I'm stand up, search around
Please go check my portfolio
Ask about me, I promise
You'll hear the same thing from different people
I'm straight for it, my truth hurt
All of me is like a fucking needle
I'm hurt my eyes burn, I ain't cried in so long
I'm protecting my peace
It is what it is, shorty so long
