(Go Grizzly) I'm in the studio, baby, I'ma hit you in a lil' second Alright Alright, baby They say a man not supposed to cry Tell me why these tears keep fallin'? We die to live, but we live to die I could feel my heartbeat often I live a breadwinner lifestyle Forever I'ma keep on ballin' Told me it was over, it was lights out Tell me why my thoughts keep callin' (ooh) Free Lil' Mane, my city want me dead My mama said I got a black cloud over my head No surrender, no retreat, that's how we play I promise you, I won't back down until I'm dead Where the love at? Fell in love, they don't love back (damn) Sadly mistaken, guess it never was that Thought we had the same dream back when we was rugrats In a grudge match, over somethin' petty, what was that? I deleted old things, I changed my contacts Praying every night and day this pain don't come back Back when we was in the game, stack change off drug packs Swerving lane to lane, sip drink with gun strap That switch, a bitch that crossed a motherfucker Weather every storm, that's coming all, I know is hustle Emotional turmoil had my heart in trouble Relationships, got burned from, but I forever love 'em That's a misconception Being able to show vulnerability is what makes you strong (ooh) Love is a battlefield, willing to kill for you How do you heal from scars when you not built for war? They say a man not supposed to cry Tell me why these tears keep fallin'? We die to live, but we live to die I could feel my heartbeat often I live a breadwinner lifestyle Forever I'ma keep on ballin' Told me it was over, it was lights out Tell me why my thoughts keep callin' (ooh) Feel like my city want me dead My mama said I got a black cloud over my head No surrender, no retreat, that's how we play it I promise you I won't back down until I'm dead Where the love at? Fell in love, they don't love back Used to pull your hair from the back, givin' you love taps We was upstairs on the carpet with no rugs there Diamonds glistenin', gettin' it in the mirror, know you love that Now tell me again (why're the lights out) Can we be lovers again? (I'm to the ceiling with it right now) Lovers and friends, could we be lovers and friends? All my feelings been conflicted, I'ma take it as a loss Sometimes I don't wanna see you, ain't no thoughts of you at all I don't go look at your pictures, act like we was not involved Got a bitch for mutual con and I got Mexico involved I got a boosted in Perico, I'm a Puerto Rico don Stack the Lion's Mane and Niacin and then went took a walk Couple sets of calisthenics then I finish with a jog Click up with my engineer and then check-in, I'm on a job I'm starting to not believe, God, please answer my prayers Take what little heart I have, it don't need to be repaired I don't wan' love nobody, I don't wan' love nobody I don't wan' love nobody, I don't wan' love nobody They say a man not supposed to cry Tell me why these tears keep fallin' We die to live, but we live to die I could feel my heartbeat often I live a breadwinner lifestyle Forever I'ma keep on ballin' Told me it was over, it was lights out Tell me why my thoughts keep callin' (ooh)
