I had my community sick when they unravel that time traveler still pick Darko MiličIć Niggas ask: Is this as dark as it get? Put a finger to my lips, shook my head Hallways was barely lit, air thick with dread It's a room full of record exec on the other end and you dancing on the desk Wake up in a cold sweat In a barber chair [?] asking if anyone tried to make you wear a dress Wake up in a cold sweat Laid up next to your old-old-old-old-old-ex and never broke up Duplex, west 86, three beautiful kids that get up and make they own beds But the way she popped that (oof) I knew I was going to wake up, I ain't even trip Cold sweat, my place is a mess Landlord tryna empty the building so he can make it flip I'm the only one left, they mad I'm stoppin' the grift I'm glad, 'cause the shoe on the other foot and it fit Every slave dream of the day he get ahold of the whip Shit eatin' grin, I pay rent, they mad as shit They tryna wake up, but it's the same n-word again and again with the same check They tried threats They offered me bread, begged me to talk sense Like: How you what this think to end? End? Who said- Who said anything about- Hold on, hold on, why would it end? I love it here I'm not trying to go anywhere man, y'all my people For reals Why would it end? You're beyond crazy It's not ending, man There's no ending The clothes I describe, where the clothes he was buried in The piece of paper he gave me She brought a letter that he wrote her when he was in the army The signature was identical There was only one thing that was different I said, uh: He had a high voice? She said: Oh, no no no, she said: He had a deep voice, like yours Anyway, this story happened to a guy like me, and like I said it's been haunting me
