I felt like rapping today This some more Nix shit You know it's Mo Murda when you hear that This a cold fucking world that we living in Same ones that you loved turned enemy A week ago he was chilling, he was friends with him Now he plotting, planning how to put an end to him That jealousy and that envying be so real ain’t no sympathy For the family and friends that be Left behind with just memories How u leave somebody kids to grieve No empathy or conscious in these streets it’s sickening If I’m taken from my mama I hope it don’t be Some nigga feeling he got to rid me just cuz he envy me I know my time gonna come eventually Still I be praying me and mine live 'til infinity I'm working on my health, that’s physically and mentally No amount of wealth could have me richer than my spirit be I don't feel myself around who energy ain’t lifting me That vibe gonna be felt ya on the same wavelength as me There’s been some instances where if I didn’t listen when My intuition just wasn’t feeling certain predicaments That’s when I let my heart put feelings in Left a nigga scarred up in the end But them lessons turn to blessings in disguise though Keep my eyes open and stop resting them around folk First sight of you comfortable, they gonna pull a stunt or two See how far you let them take it doing what they wanna do Take my kindness for a weakness, not what you gonna do Have enough sense to know that I‘ma keep it a buck with you Told them I’m the last real nigga you would come across Everything to gain now look at what the f*ck you lost My morals ain’t for sale, don’t care what they offering My self respect ain’t never came with a cost on it I sacrificed a lot cuz of loyalty Tables turn, they took my chair. But I been standing on my feet Looking at them like f*ck you think My mama ain’t raise nothing but a G And after all some done to me The love was deep, probably still can come to me For what they need I know y’all don’t understand me The kindness of my moms, the heart of my grannies The wisdom of my pops. Hustle of my granddaddies It’s all in the blood. Thank God for my family In each other we trust. I don't know about y’all But I know about us I make one phone call and I got to say much Whole family showing up on some who want what I don't know who brought up these new niggas with no regards For the hearts ripped apart and left scarred from the losses That could’ve been avoided. Ain’t got to be so hard man Maybe from a simple conversation. Start talking Maybe take a minute just to think. Put some thought in it I promise it don’t make you soft man You wake up angry every day, find the source man Stop complaining, better pray and talk to God man Nigga had the nerve to tell me that I got it made Had to turn around and tell them all I got is faith Problems to the ceiling, but I’m still grinning Cuz I knew I had strength when they didn’t kill me Had a nigga drinking, but I shook the habit Had a couple people I got too attached to them When life threw them curveballs, I took the bat from them And they just turned around and gave me their ass to kiss But God sits high and looks down low Watched them the whole time poking holes in my boat They ain’t know he gave me wings so when it’s time for Me to fly they watch me soar high while they drown slow I said God sits high and looks down low Watched them the whole time poking holes in my boat They ain’t know he gave me wings so when it’s time for Me to fly they watch me soar high while they drown slow Nix
