Lyrics
Yeah, you know, we all go through situations I mean, it's like, sometimes it's involved with family Sometimes, you know, friends, sometimes relationships, you know? But I had my share of problems just like everybody else, you know? But you know, I'm an artist, so I write about it, that's how it is I got a couple [?] I wanna share with y'all Check this out [?] Every day that pass solidifies the days of my past And how we [?] thought it was gon' last And you had it all with a cat like me Trust and honesty, that's how it's gon' be So [?] I got your back, hoping you got mine I'm listening when you talk in my shoulder When you crying, I'm there Even your family clowns and lets your ex-boyfriend keep coming around I know, he make them laugh, heard it all before Shoulda checked at the door, but you was too slow And me, I'm entertainment, you 9 to 5 My checks is for the mic, your checks is to stay alive I'm like, "I got this company, watch it blow up" You like, "let's have some kids and watch them grow up" Woah, damn, this [?] even hear what I said It took her five to six months 'fore it stuck in her head, now I'm gone Sometimes life is crazy Situations bring [?] Sometimes I wish maybe You were with me always, but it's not the same There was this one chick, they say look like me I mean, this one chick was like a sister to me I'm sayin' we was the tightest since the fourth grade I'm talkin' walks to Popeys for biscuits and lemonade, it's on In the Chi, she would rub my wrong They would say, say, say, but I'd still stay strong Like, "look, that's just a style, she cool, don't trip" Fast forward, years later, can't believe she [?] Tryna destroy my character and lie to her fam She tricked me over money, she started acting funny Disrespecting my mother, treat [?] like a dummy It's wild 'cause I really thought she had my back I mean, that's what she said, so I thought it was fact So I'm forced to say [?] my sister friend is wack And that ain't never how I thought this song would end as an only real friend, I know it Sometimes life is crazy Situations bring [?] Sometimes I wish maybe You were with me always, but it's not the same Now I face death, ain't never spoke on this before '87, my pops killed, fam I hit the floor It was like, you mean to tell me, I ain't gon' see him no more And my sins no more and then I looked out the door at the sun And I thought grandma I lost her son, my grandad, so sad I'ma be that one to change her whole life and make him proud of me I got some cousins that'll show him just how to be Even if my stepdad who raised me since age three Ain't in my life no more, he still a father to me What up dude? I know you working, trying to get that food So I present this song, just know you not alone and this love The good times is all I think of, man what happened to that? I wish it'd all come back But it's like, since the divorce conversation is forced And it's hard to play it off but still, I play it off Sometimes life is crazy Situations bring [?] pain Sometimes I wish maybe You were with me always, but it's not the same
