Intro (quiet, sincere)
Yeah…
Money cool, but it don’t hold you at night
Uh
Hook
I don’t trust much, but I trust my blood
When the world went dark, they was who I loved
Had my back when I ain’t have shit
Saw my worst, still stayed with me
I done lost friends, I done lost dreams
But my family never switched teams
If it all fall down, I still got them
Family over everything
Verse 1
I was broke with a heavy heart
They was there from the fuckin’ start
Mama stress in her tired eyes
Still told me I was goin’ far
I done failed in a hundred ways
They still clapped on my better days
When I wanted to quit this life
They the reason I stayed awake
Ain’t nobody love me clean
Like the ones who share my name
They don’t care what I got now
They just care if I’m okay
World fake with a fake smile
Everybody want a piece
But my people want my soul
Want me whole, not on a leash
Hook
I don’t trust much, but I trust my blood
When the world went dark, they was who I loved
Had my back when I ain’t have shit
Saw my worst, still stayed with me
I done lost friends, I done lost dreams
But my family never switched teams
If it all fall down, I still got them
Family over everything
Verse 2
I done cried in a empty room
With my phone in my hand like “damn”
Then my kid say “I love you, dad”
And it hit me like a plan
All this pain gotta mean somethin’
All this grind gotta build somethin’
I ain’t chasin’ no spotlight
I’m chasin’ a better life
I don’t need ten fake friends
I just need my circle tight
I don’t want no million fans
If my people don’t sleep right
They don’t see all the weight I hold
But they feel when I break inside
So I stand when I wanna fall
‘Cause my name in they heart for life
Bridge (melodic, emotional)
If I die with nothin’ else
At least they know I tried
I just want ‘em safe and proud
When they say my name out loud
Hook (Half → Full)
I don’t trust much…
But I trust my blood…
I don’t trust much, but I trust my blood
When the world went dark, they was who I loved
Had my back when I ain’t have shit
Saw my worst, still stayed with me
I done lost friends, I done lost dreams
But my family never switched teams
If it all fall down, I still got them
Family over everything
Outro (spoken)
They don’t love me for my wins…
They love me for my wounds
That’s real love
