[Verse] I promise they're still good in me, I know i've done wrong Tell me what you see in me, i know it's been too long Sorry I changed So sorry I changed Love is evil, don't believe me then spell it backwards I just do this shit to vent, and then get drunk after I'll do anything to see one of my son's happy You play like you won't smoke, knock that bitch til his lungs backwards I'm from a city where there's nothing but gangstas and drug addicts When I was young, I spent too many nights on a blow up mattress Cashing out on hoes and clothes, shit that i just thought mattered This that painful poetry Let's talk about this shit that I be thinking when I can't go to sleep I brought kids in the world, hope that I can be the dad i'm supposed to be I've been scarred by people that were close to me This dark cloud keep hanging over me I always look out for my niggas, but never givin what was owed to me You can see it in my eye, real niggas got to notice me I put my family on my back, just like a backpack P T S D from being broke, im having flashbacks Now i'm just trying to do right, fuck you mad at Once you burn them bridges, you can't backtrack They used to call me corny, I got laughed at Shit ain't funny when the rabbit got the gun, I need the last laugh Remember not the bite to hand that feed you Ain't it crazy that the one that you've been feeding Suddenly get greedy Turn around and go to actin like they ain't need ya That's why I keep my distance I dont fake cause they dont listen And even if they did its just so, they can know your business I'm the type to handle business Even if it was a handful They be acting like they love you knowin damn well they can't stand you Quit actin like a hoe Hate me wit yo chest I've been working on my aim, don't waste no money on no vest I'm just laid back, the quiet one, try me be my guess They aint see me as a threat Fuck with me this smith and wesson, make a mess Stop fuckin with these drugs, just because you are depressed Real niggas, feels like there aint too many of them left Watch the company you keep that's how niggas end up dead Be careful who you speak around, that's how niggas end up in the feds Praying for my city close my eyes and bow my head This that painful poetry Painful poetry
