B.R.A.K.E. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Confused
And bruised
And broken
My heads loose
Another night
That I've wasted on ya
I don't know why
I always lose
Can't seem to win
Can't seem to have ya
And I know
And I know
And I know
I shouldn't call ya
And I know
That you know
That I said
That it was over
Well I guess my body's
Getting numb
From all the pain
I've been holding on
But fuck it here we go again
I don't know why
You came over
Red wine spilt
All on the sofa
You don't want me
I don't either
Too many times
This is over
Cause all I ever do
All I ever do
All I ever do
I keep running back to you
All I ever do
All I ever do
All I ever do
I keep running back to you
I keep running back to you
It's getting late
You always text
So where are you
Another night
That I've waited for ya
Wait a minute
You're at my door its 2
AM I won't lie
I hope that it's you
And I know
And I know
And I know
I shouldn't call ya
And I know
That you know
That I said
That it was over
And I know I've said
A thousand times
This this will be
The last goodbye
But fuck it
Here we are again
I don't know why
You came over
Red wine spilt
All on the sofa
You don't want me
I don't either
Too many times
This is over
Cause all I ever do
All I ever do
All I ever do
I keep running back to you
All I ever do
All I ever do
All I ever do
I keep running back to you
I keep running back to you
And I know
And I know
And I know
I shouldn't call ya
And I know
That you know
That I said
That it was over
Well I guess my body's
Getting numb
From all the pain
I've been holding on
But fuck it here we go again
And I know
And I know
And I know
I shouldn't call ya
And I know
That you know
That I said
That it was over
Well I guess my body's
Getting numb
From all the pain
I've been holding on
But fuck it here we go again
Cause all I ever do
All I ever do
All I ever do
I keep running back to you
All I ever do
All I ever do
All I ever do
I keep running back to you
Cause all I ever do
All I ever do
All I ever do
I keep running back to you
All I ever do
All I ever do
All I ever do
I keep running back to you
I keep running back to you

Ok, that's right, Ghetto! (F-A-B)
Fabulous Kurupt affirms his ghetto roots
With the D-O double G, three fo' bubblies
Drinking 40 ounce bottles with Snoop Dogg
Three fo dubs and trees
Smoking weed and driving with Snoop Dogg
Chinky eyes, B-Low double G's
Snoop Dogg's eyes are slightly slanted and he wears blue clothing
Hit three fo' clubs and breeze
Going to the club and leaving quickly
The tree flow double trees
Smoking lots of weed as a lifestyle
Don't speak, the deez host publicly
Don't talk about illegal activities in public
Dee low rubber knees, ski-o's double D's
Bouncing low to avoid getting shot and admiring women with large breasts
Don't know what these broads trouble grief
Not understanding what women's problems are
For these roll double V's, please no slugs to squeeze
Driving a Volkswagen and not wanting to get shot
(F-A-B) Told you I'm a rider, but you can thank the green
Fabulous Kurupt asserts his toughness, but credits his success to weed
For the gangsta lean, when I roll through in a rider
Driving slowly in a gangsta way
You looking at a "coast to coast G"
I am a well-respected gangsta across the country
I got love, but I still stash the toaster closely
I still have love, but I keep my gun close for protection
We bailing on police rides, cause Nate
We are running from the police because Nate has strong-smelling weed
Got some sticky so strong you could smell it on the Eastside
The weed is so potent that you can smell it from far away
Please believe it, believe it please
Definitely believe me
You goin' see arms come out, like sleeveless T's
Expect to see guns come out
I got love for, my homies who be rolling with me
I love my friends who always have my back
Play no games cause, ain't nobody playing with me
I don't mess around because I am serious
I got love for, my niggas on my family tree
I love my family and close friends
Down with the ghetto, down for whatever
I support the struggles of the ghetto and will do anything to help
Just in-case I, better take a weapon with me
As a precaution, I bring a weapon with me
When these hoes get clever, down for whatever
When women become manipulative, I am ready for anything
If she stress me some more, I'll leave the heffer down in the street
If a woman annoys me too much, I will abandon her in a dangerous area
For chuck tailors and Converse
I love shoes by Chuck Taylor and Converse
C'mere let's con-verse, I mean where you heard those words first
Let's talk about where you first heard those shoes mentioned
My niggaz put in hard work
My friends work hard for what they have
Twenty four hours and packs go like front work
Our illegal activities are nonstop and move quickly
Crips and Bloods, chick who'll split'cha mugs
Criminals and their girlfriends who will physically harm others
Same bitches that strip for bucks
These women also work as strippers for money
For half these dudes spittin
I don't respect half of the rappers out there
Other half don't live it see.. I talk about it bitch
The other half don't actually live the gangsta life, but I do and don't need to brag
Play Brutus, Popeye your ass, reach for my spinach
I will use violence against anyone who tries to take my drugs
You see how I'm eating contenders
I am doing well in comparison to my competitors
Y'all children, I'm more original
Other rappers are unoriginal and childish compared to me
More lyrical, plus dogg,
I am more skilled at rapping and use 'dogg' to show respect to Snoop Dogg
For fans wavin they hands, repeatin my sentence
I love my fans who are excitedly repeating my lyrics
My times now, eat when I'm finished
This is my moment and I will enjoy it
You? You oppose no threat
You are not a challenge to me
Got your chick hollering B.R.E.T.T.!
Your girlfriend is excited about me and my music
I got game cause, the game was given to me
I am successful because I was destined for it
Say my name cause, ain't nobody tighter than me
I am the best and people should acknowledge it by saying my name
Give it up if, you like the way I'm rocking this beat
If you enjoy my music and how I perform, show me support
I don't know, know nothing better, chasing my cheddar
I don't know any other way of living than making money
If you ain't loving the boy, you ain't never listened to me
If you don't like me and my music, you haven't truly listened
