YOU


You're really literally all I got in here over death being left alone is my biggest fear it's the only thing that brings tears to my face shedding years from my days I can't sleep at night because I can't get comfortable in any way that I lay I mean wide fucking awake on countless fucking days hoping wishing waiting on a letter to come my way not from anybody or anyone but from the only girl that I love I try to keep it together but then I'm on my knees trying to pray that if there is a God he don't take you away from me makes my heart Hella weak tears falling down my cheek begging Lord please let this girl be the one I could keep i'm not trying to preach but you're the only one I can reach i'm pushing my heart through these sheets im weak I'm trying to stress to you my stresses i'm stressing in here every day like a year biggest fear bringing tears because of you Quitin drugs because of you banging my head wishing I was dead because of you hating red because of you waisting led because of you I'm not a brown clown downtown because of you I don't lie I cry because of you your all I got never forgotten like the needle in the cotton you'll never see me do like I just **** said i'm in love because of you so can you wait if not from jail but released from this prison gate Can you wait till I'm able to impregnate you I **** generate because of you i'm doing time writing rhymes because of you you're all I **** have I  after losing my mom child and dad baby that's just **** half I mean baby can you last without being overwhelmed by the shadows that I cast or leave me for a different man do you think you can because if you do I got major **** plans I want to be a real **** dad that raises a real **** man that replaces all disgraces in my life that I have baby I know you're the one tougher than a gun heart skipping beats when we Hug fits like a glove only one putting money on the phone every month only one putting up only one staying strong while your man is **** gone say didn't matter even when I'm in the wrong when I didn't have a job all I could Do  is rob and steal because of you but like I just **** said 26 bars ago I'm a love because of you
