Lyrics

It's not the length of life but the depth that counts
We made it back while the world tried to etch us out
Crawled and crepped took the top of the Lexus out
My money to stretch from North to East, West, and South
We all doubt, our purpose at one point in life
Is it the kids we gon nurture or the plane in the sky?
Travel the world, Africa and Asia tonight
Pumping curls, I doubt that god made us to fight
But to come together?
That seem highly unlikely
The crowd on they toes and shaking hips like Tai Chi
Still gon speak my mind even if people don't like me
Cause if I'm caught lying, that shit fuck up my psyche
It was Nike sweats and Vans flicking the grip
Ridding round with my homies eating shit on the lips
I never wanted to go home that's when times were dif'
Now all it want is a home with a family there
For me and my sister to land and steer on the right path
Buying new clothes not checking the price tags
Gathering these lost souls and give em they light back
I was loaded every night so can I get them nights back?
Wasted time, memories, and stress but I ain't mad
Why should I feel resentful for the times that I fled from reality?
Had sickness infested inside my head
I was always looking for the thing next
Still remember when Bob gave the mic and I said "Check"
I was 11 thought that's the best life gets
A couple years go by and my idol cuts checks for the beats I supply
Thinking am I what's next?
Pick up the mic and start conveying how I felt
Project after project what I dealt and if they talking bout me
They can't bout no one else
That's my logic
Business bank account started seeing more deposits like somebody bought us out
But I still own half the masters
Truthfuly I got pretty comfortable I got it
Til' the river started drying and the albums go without me
Switching up the sound and see the people start to doubt me on the 'gram
Complications with the promo money we got loud
And the label said "See you later we could do without"
All the love that I had in the beginning end up drowned
By the business and the digits, social media, and crowds
Numbers aren't as high I start to beat myself down
I thought this would be my life, my way to make it out
Everything I make is lame and corny now
So I look for love elsewhere and Dayna who I found
Tried to act a man as a damaged, lonely child
Until finally I caved in and I couldn't hold me down
Sniffing coke and drinking Crown with my homies now
Til' they told me settle down and I went off by myself
Blew all of my money longing pairs, taking L's
Drinking a fifth and then wake up, drink another, then pass out
That was just cycle I thought there was no way out
Until I faced the biggest fear I had, dealing with myself
To God I extend a hand, pull me out from hell
Before I end up dead or laying inside of a cell
How it feel?
How it feel?
I couldn't be more scared to walk this path alone
Doctor I need more, all the pills I had are gone
Yeyo I need more, all the lines I had are blown
Money I need more, but all the trees I had are grown
And love I need more, need a bed to call my home
Said, love I need more, but I have to let ya go
I couldn't be more scared to walk this path alone
Doctor I need more, all the pills I had are gone
Yeyo I need more, all the lines I had are blown
Money I need more, but all the trees I had are grown
And love I need more, need a bed to call my home
Said, love I need more, but I have to let ya go
