{rooga- don't need them}
{chorus}
They say blood don't make you family
But loyalty does
Lately i been showin' love to people
That don't show love
It's like the more you show'em love
The more they don't give a fu*k
&
The more i stick around
The more i'm seein' wassup
They don't really be there for me
When i need'em
It's like they say they there
But ion really see them
Aye
But i see right thru them
I can read them
&
These voices tellin' me
That i don't need them
{verse 1}
Yeah
All the pain & all this sufferin'
Got me thinkin' about my brothas
They done drained out all of the love
Got me thinkin' about some other
&
I pray god forgive me
For all these sins cause i've been punished
The one way to heal this pain
From all this rain that i been under
& i got people with these high expectations of me
But they don't understand everything that was taken from me
You don't understand
These people used to take it from me
I don't understand
These people i'm just chasin' a dream
Look
Got a lot of sh*t on my mind
I'm gone think on
I went deep off in that water
Feel like i'm sinkin'
I was down bad by myself
Nobody gave me nun
So i sip purple cause
I'm better off when i'm dreamin'
{chorus}
They say blood don't make you family
But loyalty does
Lately i been showin' love to people
That don't show love
It's like the more you show'em love
The more they don't give a fu*k
&
The more i stick around
The more i'm seein wassup
They don't really be there for me
When i need'em
It's like they say they there
But ion really see them
Aye
But i see right thru them
I can read them
&
These voices tellin me
That i don't need them
{verse 2}
All this trauma
That i been thru
I'm afraid
I seen the devil
&
My momma say
I'm changin'
But i'm changin'
For the better
When you accomplish sh*t up in the hood
You don't get a medal
They don't wanna see you doin good
Just laugh & lift yo head up
They'd rather see you locked in shackles
&
Watch all of your dreams shatter
Now you mad at the world
But that don't even matter
Cause you sittin' in that cell
With no visits or no mail
No money or no bail
Just dreams
That were failed
&
I been losin' so many of my ni**as
It got me numb now
&
I been takin' these drugs
Love prescriptions
Help me calm down
Don't nobody know the real reason
He don't come round
Cause i might co*k it back
&
Squeeze it just to hear that gun sound
Yeah it's sad but it's true
Lost my brother
Told his killer i got a casket for you
Ain't nothin' in store for your future
But the past tense for you
&
They gone keep on killin
Even tho it's bad for the youth
{chours}
They say blood don't make you family
But loyalty does
Lately i been showin' love to people
That don't show love
It's like the more you show'em love
The more they don't give a fu*k
&
The more i stick around
The more i'm seein wassup
They don't really be there for me
When i need'em
It's like they say they there
But ion really see them
Aye
But i see right thru them
I can read them
&
These voices tellin me
That i don't need them
