You and Me
H.O.P. Lyrics

Yo, can I talk to you?
Can I have a moment to speak with you?

Just got a few things I wanna say
I have a few thoughts that I want to express

Nothin' major
Nothing too significant

Keep it between you and me
Let's keep this conversation confidential

KXNG D.O.P.E. be the man hoe
I am confident and respected

After hours in Hollywood Hills
Late nights spent in the luxurious Hollywood Hills

I been sippin' on that Henny
I have been drinking Hennessy

I'm stuck in my feels
I am experiencing intense emotions

3 In the morning
At three o'clock in the morning

That's the devil's hour
A time believed to be associated with supernatural activities

The hardest shit's when ya
The most difficult part is when your

Heart and mind's
Emotions and thoughts are

In a fight for power
Engaged in a battle for control

What do I want?
What am I truly seeking?

Is it the love or the sex?
Am I pursuing genuine love or solely physical desires?

Why every chick I've fallen for
Why does every woman I develop feelings for

Ends up being my ex?
Eventually become my former partner?

I start to question my attraction
I begin to doubt my ability to make romantic choices

Be as real as can be
Be completely honest

Keep it a hunnit with myself
Maintain complete honesty with myself

I think it coulda been me
I believe that I could have been the cause

I'm only takin' blame for shit
I accept responsibility for my actions

I feel I coulda prevented
I believe that I could have avoided

Like choosing to stick around
Such as deciding to remain in the situation

When my heart wasn't in it
Even though my emotions were not fully invested

Ignoring the red flags
Disregarding warning signs

Cause I saw the potential
Because I saw the possibilities

It always blew up in my face
It always resulted in a negative outcome for me

A ton of bricks when it hit'chu
An overwhelming and painful realization

Really hard to swallow that
Extremely difficult to accept

Because it's pain in the truth
Because the truth is painful

I can't be venting to these bitches
I cannot express my emotions to these women

So I stick to the booth
So I express myself through music

If there was anyone for me
If there was someone who was right for me

I feel it coulda been
I believe it could have been

She chose to go another route
She decided to take a different path

And that was driving me crazy
And that was making me feel insane

Fully committed
Completely dedicated

I was in
I was deeply involved

Ain't no way I was runnin
There was no way I would avoid

That one really hurt the most
That one caused the most pain

Cause I ain't see that shit comin
Because I did not anticipate that situation

Often times I sit and wonder
Frequently I contemplate

Was it something I did
Did I do something wrong

Vanessa told me let it go baby
Someone named Vanessa advised me to move on

It is what it is
The situation cannot be changed

I could feel the sense of aggravation
I could sense a feeling of frustration

Growin around me
Growing within me

Wanted us to grow together
I desired for us to progress as a couple

But you did it without me
But you accomplished it without my involvement

Damn
Expressing frustration or disappointment

I just needed to take a moment
I simply needed some time alone

Just needed a moment
Simply required a brief period of time

It's like
It feels

3 Somethin' in the morning
Around three o'clock in the morning

3 O'clock
Three o'clock

I'm lowkey drunk
I am slightly intoxicated

Drunk as fuck
Extremely drunk

This is just stuff I had inside me
These are feelings and thoughts that were suppressed within me

For a long time
For a significant period

That I just needed to release
That I simply needed to let go of

Needed to release
Required to let go

I hope y'all understand, man
I hope all of you can comprehend

Please understand
I kindly request for you to comprehend

Just listen
Simply pay attention

I been
I have been

Up and down on this rollercoaster
Experiencing various ups and downs in life

Pack it up
Put everything away

Close the curtains
Bring the curtains together

Show is over
The performance or display has ended

Same shit just a different day
The same problems, just on a different day

My guard is up
I am on high alert

I have trouble knowin' who's here to stay
I struggle to identify who will remain in my life permanently

Solitary
Being alone

I'm naturally isolated
I tend to naturally distance myself from others

What they don't understand
What others fail to comprehend

They label as complicated
They perceive it as complex

People'll say you actin' funny
Some individuals will claim that you are behaving strangely

That's just saying the least
That is the understatement

I never found a sense of humor
I never found enjoyment or amusement

In protecting my peace
In safeguarding my tranquility

So many days
Numerous days

Emotions hit me
Feelings overwhelm me

And I start reminiscin
And I begin to reminisce

Then I put one in the air
Then I smoke marijuana

For my niggas no longer livin
In memory of my deceased friends

Like how much can you take
The amount of suffering one can endure

When it's one after another?
When hardships continuously occur?

The final blow was Kobe
The ultimate tragedy was Kobe Bryant's death

From that I'll never recover
I will never fully heal from that

My nigga caught a case
My friend got into legal trouble

He tryna fight it on his feet
He is attempting to handle it legally

Got 25 to life
Received a prison sentence of 25 years to life

For being reckless in the street
For engaging in irresponsible behavior in public

Where and what happened
The specific details and location of the incident

That's just for me
That information is private and exclusive to me

It's not for you to know
It is information that you are not entitled to

I shoulda been that victim
I could have easily been in that unfortunate situation

But I chose to hit the studio
Instead, I decided to focus on my music

Done explaining myself
I am finished justifying my actions

To make these girls understand
In order to make these women comprehend

You can't accept my lifestyle
If you cannot embrace my way of life

Well then I can't be ya man
Then I cannot be your partner

I've given too much energy
I have invested excessive effort

To those who didn't deserve it
To individuals who were unworthy of it

Left me lookin in the mirror
Made me reflect on myself

Questioning was it worth it
Doubting if it was worthwhile

But it's cool
But that's fine

Chalk it up
Consider it a learning experience

Let it go young man
Release your attachment, young man

Get that anger out'cho heart
Express that anger from your heart

Time to grow young man
It is now the moment to mature, young man

I been living with regret
I have been burdened by remorse

The pain is easy to see
The agony is apparent

Wasn't supposed to tell you that
I was not meant to reveal that to you

So that's between you and me
So it remains confidential between us

Look
Listen

It's times like this where
In moments like these

Everything just hits me all at once
Everything overwhelms me simultaneously

Truth be told
Honestly speaking

I don't talk to nobody so
I do not communicate with anyone

I'm thankful
I am grateful

I was able to share this moment
I had the opportunity to express myself

With you
With you

Maybe we can do it again sometime
Perhaps we can repeat this experience in the future

Love
Love
