Can somebody tell? I love her, will I love her? Can't you hear my pray? Many many days I've wondered, will I wonder? I wonder why she left me I wonder why she left me (Bring it back) I wonder why (yeah), I wonder why I pray for my niggas surviving the pen' Demons taking my friends Boys pretending they're men Bitch, don't fuck up my zen My homie told me you violated a body And shawty, that put me on ten She beggin' me now to add it to the list Of the feelings I gotta keep in Ain't that the root of the drama? How we just lock out the trauma Fighting within, fighting without Fighting, divide it and conquer Like God didn't make us compatible They wanted to turn us to animals We lynching, that Willie Lynch manual Real niggas are back from sabbatical (I wonder why) Jaded on mental, it meant to us The reason our family slipping up 'Cause our women won't submit to us You let a bitch run a crib and us other men Say it's the bitch in us We dominate to overcompensate Our bravado dripping with the cowardice Our marching power feeling powerless Like I gotta get my niggas outta this Hell Outta this spell From the pill, on the powder, fish scales From a rapper with the loudest tip drills We don't win with no amount of pistols In a battle on the soul-ology Fresh we got that kinda dough, properly Where can niggas really own property?
