Rather Me Than You

Rather hurt myself than to hurt you

Yeah

You know how it go

Ya know

Rather hurt myself than to hurt you

But uh, we here

Yeah

Damn, Momma, I'm tryna bring it home, I been living wrong

Hope I ain't got the wrong message buried in these songs

I'm seeing pieces of myself that I didn't even know I

Was even capable of showing but it kept me going

I'm turning into something else and I'm not even sure if

I got a chance to really prep, but I had to ignore it

I gotta be what people need me to be

Know you don't recognize the shit that you been seeing from me, but it's me

Demons on the end of my phone

It wouldn't do us any justice if they left me alone

I need to hit the road, I'm not in need of a home

I made peace with the fact a piece of me's gone, but it's me

You can hear it underneath in my tone

Even if I gotta be violent in these streets when I'm gone

They gotta understand, I really mean it this time

I know it ain't how I was raised, but it's how I survived, still, I would

Rather hurt myself than to hurt you

Rather hurt myself than to hurt you

Yeah

I gotta bring it back for all my dawgs

I'm only speaking to the ones that really came along

I'm getting deeper in this shit, I gotta keep it going

More focused than I was when Mustard put me on

I learned a lot about this shit, I learned it early on

That's why I'm moving how I'm moving when I'm in the storm

I cannot carry any mercy, not with what I'm doing

And even if I had it in me, I would never show it

Almost forgot I had a label, I been tunnel vision

I'm getting selfish with the business when it come to DSTRCT

Whoever they think they dealing with, I'm not that ****

Win or lose, I got the same integrity I came in with

A man of my word, I bounced back, no kidding

God got his hands on me till the moment I finish

I don't need the last laugh, been laughing from the beginning

'Cause even if I had nothing, I would've did it, so

Rather hurt myself than to hurt you

Rather hurt myself than to hurt you

'Cause you mean so much to me baby, ba-baby

Rather hurt myself than to hurt you

Rather hurt myself than to hurt you
