Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's a cold world, put that on ice
The devil like to come out and play at night
I try to live my life, right do that twice
But when it all went wrong, I knew you weren't right
[Verse 2]
Streets labeled you a cold killer
Had you caged up with them gorillas
Blood money from a dope dealer
Tell me how the hell I'm 'pposed to deal wit you?
[Verse 3]
God bless your soul 'cause you're gone now
All this forgiven 'cause I'm grown now
Gotta make it out here on my own now
I pick the pin up to put the guns down
[Verse 4]
Every word spoken never went in vain
Speakin' to the world that take away my pain
They say you live once, when you go it's a shame
I guess that I'm stayin' insane
[Verse 5]
Should've never left me, oh my
Tell me why you had to leave me, oh why?
I had to go, I had to go
Should've never left me, oh my
Tell me why you had to leave me, oh why?
I had to go, I had to go
[Verse 6]
Try to keep the grip on my sanity, right?
'Cause they don't really know what it costs for this life
The hurt, the hunger, the time never right
Thoughts of killin' everything in plain sight
[Verse 7]
Your word is your bond
If I can say word to my moms, you know what I'm on
But you was my world, never did wrong in my eyes
Forever your, girl
[Verse 8]
Crazy what you made me
And directly what you saved me
From a little girl to a lady
Still a hustler like you raised me
[Verse 9]
God bless your soul 'cause you gone now
All is forgiven 'cause I'm grown now
Gotta make it out here on my own now
I pick the pin up to put the guns down
[Verse 10]
Every word spoken never went in vain
Speakin' to the world, take away my pain
They say you live once, when you go it's a shame
I guess that I'm stayin' insane
[Verse 11]
Should've never left me, oh  my
Tell me why you had to leave me, oh why?
I had to go, I had to go
Should've never left me, oh my
Tell me why you had to leave me, oh why?
I had to go, I had to go
