Aiit, let's get this one
You can meet me in the same corner
Same time, same place, in the same manner
Be discrete when you come to get the shit you ordered
You think them other niggas got this? I could choke on laughter
Hmmm
Hit it and you won't feel the same after
Get your brain scrambled, have your ass thinking backwards
This shit is doper than the trees
It'll make you turn a new leaf
You hear that? Hope we on the same chapter
Brain scatters over the floor when I shoot my shot
Thank God when growing up, I didn't have to push no rock
All I had to do was bow my head down and pray to God
For cash deep in our pockets and food to eat up in the pot
Man, I wasn't poor. I just didn't grow up with a lot
Trying to make it from modest beginnings to the tippy top
But I'd be lying if I said I didn't experience a lot
That's why I put it in the songs that I jot
It's my closure, shit helps me breathe
Trauma gets closer, that's when I leave
My heart gets colder, wear it on my sleeves
Shit is heavy as a boulder, that's why I bleed
Nigga, this is my closure, shit helps me breathe
Trauma gets closer, that's when I leave
My heart gets colder, wear it on my sleeves
Shit is heavy as a boulder, that's why I bleed
Nigga, that's why I bleed
It's funny how the pain goes
I'm numb to a lot of shit that could shake floors
Niggas saying this is cap
But I promise, this is facts
I can never make up all the shit I've been through
Hmmm
Everyday, it's some family drama
New additions to the list of family traumas
Maybe I'd talk about it one day when it all stops
Getting heated like we all chilling inside of a sauna
Hand me the stupid katana
I wanna cut off all the pain, make it amount to nada
And put some bleach in my brain
To get rid of all the stains
And leave nothing but the good, instead of all the shit that makes you go insane
Many times I was ashamed to show my friends where I stayed
Many years later, still doing the same thing
Lived in a house where the bright walls were stained
I guess I'm just a product of my blessing and my pain
Standing in the rain
Waiting for the bus, but it never came
Felt like I was doing that every hour of every day
Momma had to quit her job and forfeit a better pay
To try to get us to a safer place
I know that every single song is all about the wage
About how it ain't enough for me to live today
But I pray to God to plant my feet in and make me stay
And hold me down so I don't run away
Yes, He's my closure. He helps me breathe
Trauma gets closer, that's when I leave
My heart gets colder, wear it on my sleeves
Shit is heavy as a boulder, that's why I bleed
Nigga, this is my closure, shit helps me breathe
Trauma gets closer, that's when I leave
My heart gets colder, wear it on my sleeves
Shit is heavy as a boulder, that's why I bleed
Nigga, that's why I
Bleed
