Lyrics

Sometimes I get emotional And I can't seem to find the way I'm s'posed to go And all these so-called people that I'm s'posed to know They be the main ones Smile up in your face, but behind your back they hate So I hope you know You ain't the only reason I'm emotional My tears fall like water so that I can grow Not like I was before Tryna make a change, I need something more I can't hold back these tears Let me cry They say a man ain't supposed to cry So I'ma let the song cry I'ma let my soul cry through these words I need to try to free my mind Sometimes I need to cry just to ease my hurt But when I let the song cry Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine Every rose needs the rain sometimes But know that you can dry your eyes this time Let the song cry What am I supposed to do? Hold it all together when I think of you In my heart I'm thinking you were gone too soon May you rest in peace, yet I can't sleep 'Cause my point of view Got me in a state of mind, I'm so confused Crying raindrops so that I can bloom So what I am to do? I can't hold back these tears Let me cry They say a man ain't supposed to cry So I'ma let the song cry I'ma let my soul cry through these words I need to try to free my mind Sometimes I need to cry just to ease my hurt But when I let the song cry Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine Every rose needs the rain sometimes But know that you can dry your eyes this time Let the song cry Let it breathe Let it breathe Let it breathe Let's get it I may be cryin' now but I'll be laughin' later Knew it wouldn't be easy when you're tryna be the greatest That ever did it or does it Ain't no fuckin' time for later And I know they think I'm sporadic The bastard child of an addict But I'm way too calculated I try to love, but I never knew her This money, I'm blowin' through it Ain't no rockin' red or blue, I'm unaffiliated Cause my bloods and my cousins hate me I try to buy my mama's love, no she don't appreciate it So I stay inebriated I figured maybe J. Cole or Drizzy Drake Would drop a verse and tell the people how we hurtin' Guess I was mistaken This moment mine for the taking For all them nights I thought of suicide, contemplating I can't hold back these tears Let me cry They say a man ain't supposed to cry So I'ma let the song cry I'ma let my soul cry through these words I need to try to free my mind Sometimes I need to cry just to east my hurt But when I let the song cry Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine Every rose needs the rain sometimes But know that you can dry your eyes this time Let the song cry
