She said she been going through some stuff And I ain't never there Life ain't never fair But I love you baby girl, sorry if I cost you tears I'm here with listening ears Lately I been betrayed by my peers and I took it kinda hard My best friend tried to send me to the morgue She said for two months I been gone and we grew apart So she turned to another nigga to mend her broken heart I'm thinking this a joke, I'm having broken thoughts Like a bullet to my heart I asked her to call it off She said she can't cause she's having his baby Two weeks pregnant, thoughts in my head are driving me crazy I gave you my heart and this how you repay me Felt kinda torn cause she was hell of a lady But I ain't mad though, ain't no love for thugs Pac told me ain't no love for us What happened to da love and trust Stormy weather or free air, I'll be there On da hustle from each year, I see it clear Silent cries and dark nights, it's alright Sparking weed all night, my heart cries Black hoodies and black shoes, ain't got jewels Stab wounds and tattoos, my heart's bruised Elevated from the block to da top, smart move Real thugs got hearts too Just trying to keep hope alive In a world full of spiritual pollution and spoken lies Be smart, be vigilant You can't believe everything that you hear God works in mysterious ways, so does the devil Many cold nights love have forsaken thee, reason why I'm a rebel Dear God, can you hear my plea Just lift me up and take me from where I be It's a long journey home, a long journey indeed May the grace of God be with us May God be with us all
