[YBN Cordae] Uh, I got an auntie who be raisin´ her daughters kids She´s 46, one is one, one is two, others 4 and 6 Baby dad ain´t really with that supportive shit
I come to town iced-out with the foreign drip I got another cousin she the same age as me Our lifestyles completely different and basically- Her baby dad beat her ass, what I hate to see Her black eye as I cried, that´s a daily thing And here I am chasin´ dreams Ignorant with bliss, worryin´ about plays and streams The crazy part is, they don´t even say a thing They don´t want me to worry, just go and make that cream I got an aunt with a cheatin´ husband Always knew he bogus Used to wear turtlenecks and some Louis loafers Comin´ home to family struggles got me losin´ focus I don´t know how else to deal so it´s truly known
I got a brother out there who like five years old I don´t know why daddy try to hide your soul No blood test needed ´cause it just might be Seen the picture lil man lookin´ just like me
[Arin Ray] It be the ones that´s closest That go through the motions Maybe it´s me that´s been selfish Don´t know why I can´t help it And it´s been hard for me To see what you been goin´ through, it´s tirin´ ´Cause you´ve been sufferin´, you´ve been sufferin´ No more sufferin´ in silence
[YBN Cordae] And they don´t even ask for shit
When I was broke, grandma MoneyGram´d me cash and shit And she wasn´t even the one that was havin´ it Family be matterin´ most but is a catalyst I got another cousin buggin´ who addicted to Xans Said it was her substitute for never gettin´ a man Said we all need love only if it´s in the plan Forced love the worst love, throw that shit in the can I got a auntie who a prositute, that hurt my soul Promise you sellin´ yo´ body ain´t worth that gold Reverse that role, you don´t gotta swerve that road Searching for the answers, I don´t wanna search that low ´Cause I done been through a lot, my family goes through worse
Cryin´ on this airplane how I wrote this verse They be sufferin´ in silence, they don´t tell me a thing All they tell me is, "Nigga, go excel in your dreams"
[Arin Ray] It be the ones that´s closest That go through the motions Maybe it´s me that´s been selfish Don´t know why I can´t help it And it´s been hard for me To see what you been goin´ through, it´s tirin´ ´Cause you´ve been sufferin´, been sufferin´ No more sufferin´ in silence It be the ones that´s closest That go through the motions Maybe it´s me that´s been selfish
Don´t know why I can´t help it And it´s been hard for me To see what you been goin´ through, it´s tirin´ You´ve been sufferin´, been sufferin´ No more sufferin´ in silence
