Akbar V Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1
Somebody grab me some some wings Iโ€™m tryna fly away
Not because I need a Red Bull my partna died today
Gotta keep it on your side to avoid a homicide , all theses bodies droppin round me feel like I losing my mind
God I need some peace, I need some peace shit Iโ€™m begging for it
Finally got my time to stun on bitches, shit I waited for it (waited for it)
N*** say he love me, no he donโ€™t, he just love my head
Cuz I suck and swallow everything make that nigga bed
Seen my b.f.f. Turn to Rico made my heart cold
So I pop these percs on the daily, hope it heal my soul
It ainโ€™t did shit make me higher then a telepole
Worried about if my bag low
Still spending last years dough
Back against the ropes I come out swingin cuz Iโ€™m from that jungle
Got that dog shit on me, bitch go grab me a pamper
They say I be humble, shit itโ€™s hard to be when u out here chasin meals Thatโ€™s why I say fuck feelings cuz feelings donโ€™t pay no bills
Verse 2
Been through hell and back had ups and downs
Yea I survived the trenches
Gave it all and they ainโ€™t give back, now I just mind my business Living like I just went double platinum, Iโ€™m still independent
Lost my dawgs and I canโ€™t get em back, now Iโ€™m just reminiscing (Yea) Never had no job I ainโ€™t ever get a pension
Itโ€™s ironic I had to feed my family out the kitchen
Times was ugly nigga so weโ€™d buy pretty pistols
Seen my dawg on paperwork now I just keep my distance
Know it hurt my dawg feelinsโ€™ see it in his face
But I canโ€™t break the code my nigga
Thatโ€™s how we was raised
Real dope fein baby my mama was gettin high
I sold crack to my family members, im just tryna survive
I was just tryna get by
Went through so much shit
I canโ€™t even cry




R.i.p my nigga Ricky now you in the sky
Miss my nigga Soda brody I canโ€™t even lie

She is now in a position where she tries not to get too attached to people, and it is evident that she cares for her friends that are no longer alive.
