I don't show the love that they want so they say I'm heartless But they don't know I Struggle every day I do this dirt for my people garden Today I pray I Find a better way to show my people really where my heart is Before they crucify me Or deny me Till I get I can't give you niggas access All this working got me beefing with my best friends I gotta add another check to my checklist But then again money can't replace ya presence Man I coulda bought a Rollie with a facelift But instead I bought a building with a basement The course I'm on got me seeking education But why I'm losing all my friends, this shit don't make sense Mama I been places you might never know You been places I could never go Lived with faces, I ain't ever know Told them secrets I hope they never told So Fuck the models and the fame I done seen the world through different frames My spirit really on a different plane People always tell me pick a lane But honestly I can't I Might catch a DUI with all these flames I don't show the love that they want so they say I'm heartless But they don't know I Struggle every day I do this dirt for my people garden Today I pray I Find a better way to show my people really where my heart is Before they crucify me Or deny me No love lost it's just a lack of communication A 90s baby not apart of my generation They tell me practice makes perfect I practice patience Now I could give a nigga juice with a conversation A competition but it still ain't no contest All the shit a nigga take hard to digest I been tryna feed my people for context But everybody can't relate so I digress This what I do it for Mama working nights at the postal store Two little brothers gettin big as the grocery store My folks in Houston living good but we strive for more Foot on the gas cuz I know what my drive is for Man I got way too many soldiers to start a war They looking over me protecting my heart and soul I give up everything I got and they ask for more Cuz they know that imma go get it just ask me for it I don't show the love that they want so they say I'm heartless But they don't know I Struggle every day I do this dirt for my people garden Today I pray I Find a better way to show my people really where my heart is Before they crucify me Or deny me
