Imperfect Flower

Sunshine gon' come with rainy days, Codiene take the pain away Kobe at the three, while down by two, Dwayne gon' fade away I know they hate I made a way, for my niggas I paved a way I'm at the top, they at the bottom starvin' guess that mean it's safe to say That I really came from the trenches They throwin' dirt on top my name, I got no love for these bitches Fuck all the cameras and the fame, I came in for the riches This Crip shit runnin' in my veins, ask the Lord for forgiveness Just had a talk with Tim mama, she say I'm an idol and I lead the way She know this gun not in my title, for my life she hit her knees and pray She know that niggas want me dead, that's why this Smith & Wesson on my waist She hate the fact that I'm a Crip, I throw my C's up them heavyweights It ain't no love inside my heart, I left my feelings drowning in a lake I put my trust inside an envelope, then mailed it to another state They tryna judge me by my lifestyle, plus these tats that's on my fuckin' face But I'm a live this fuckin' lifestyle from the cradle to the fuckin' grave How do you know when you love someone? When deep down in your soul you can't love no one When you done done so much, you can't trust no one I feel I'm walkin' down the wrong road How do you know when you love someone? When deep down in your soul you can't love no one When you done done so much, you can't trust no one I feel I'm walkin' down the wrong road Standin' in court, look back, my mama cryin' Like "Son, I told you this so many times" Judge told me speak before I caught my time Taught me a lesson, true love hard to find Juvenile prison where the biz' is Belly Locked up, caught grippin' with no commissary Livin' in hell, pray to the missionary Stuck in the cell when my grandma got buried Bloody t-shirts to obituaries I seen them fold in different situations I seen the realest turn fake We slang that K, then it's blood on the pavement I been thuggin' since I went to Haven I done seen killas make a statement Walkin' down a long road, look back, don't see nobody wavin' Turn 'round the corner, jump out with the pole Two Swisher Sweets, a pill, a pack of poles That choppa roll a nigga up like dope Them dolla bills'll make 'em kick your door We in the field, and that's one thing for sure I had to learn somethin' you taught to hold I'm thinkin' hard like I ain't thought before That 30 clip is a part of my pose I'm pourin' lean 'til I can't pour no more Ride through the streets like I'm not goin' home What's understood ain't gotta be explained, it's too much goin' on Murder runnin' through my veins like heroin in a needle How do you know when you got love from your people? How do you know when you love someone? When deep down in your soul you can't love no one When you done done so much, you can't trust no one I feel I'm walkin' down the wrong road How do you know when you love someone? When deep down in your soul you can't love no one When you done done so much, you can't trust no one I feel I'm walkin' down the wrong road
