Bruised Up
Lil Baby & Lil Durk Lyrics

They left me bruised up, they tried to leave me used up
The people he trusted hurt him badly and tried to take advantage of him

I was confused 'cause the ones I love ain't prove much
He was confused because the people he loved didn't show him love back

I did everything, they lied say I ain't do much
He did everything he could, but the people he trusted lied and said he didn't do anything

And they ain't call me to plead they case, and it'd been two months
The people he trusted didn't even try to defend themselves and it had been two months since the incident

Postin' guns on your page, that put us all in danger
Posting pictures of guns on social media is dangerous for everyone involved

But they say I'm one of the leaders 'cause I'm the one that's famous
Even though he didn't want to be a leader, people recognize him as one because he is famous

Some niggas don't come around unless it's entertainment
Some people only come around when they can be entertained, not because they genuinely care

When it's time to kill for real, them niggas gon' keep complainin'
When the time comes to really be about that life, those people will make excuses and not follow through

Ain't no cars, ain't no guns, ain't no fun
Without cars or guns, there isn't any excitement or fun to be had

What I'ma do if I get locked up? (Locked up)
If he gets locked up, he doesn't know what he would do

I ain't never committed no crimes, somebody lied
He has never committed a crime, but someone has lied about him

I'm on the case with niggas I love, but two of 'em died
He is working with people he loves, but two of them have passed away

And it irks my nerves if you talkin' about murders, he ain't even slide
It bothers him when people talk about murders that someone didn't even commit

When bro'nem died, I said I was tired, I lied, I cried (on my mama)
He lied about being tired and actually cried when his friend passed away

Just got a check for thirty million cash, and I'm gon' sign
He just received a check for thirty million dollars and plans to sign it

Everybody around me gon' kill someone, they gotta walk around with a mask (woah, woah)
The people around him are capable of murder and must wear masks to keep their identity hidden

Every time you slide, nigga, that shit better make the news or somethin'
If you're going to commit a crime, it better be big enough to make the news

Young niggas better stay inside they lane, better go to school or somethin'
Young people should stay focused and educated instead of getting involved in dangerous activities

Pissed me off, I'm puttin' up three hundred cash, that shit like voodoo numbers
He is angry and is putting up three hundred dollars, a significant amount like voodoo numbers

I done got so high off this batch of weed, it feel like Tooka comin'
He is very high off his weed and feels like the deceased Chicago rapper Tooka is there with him

I can't back door none of my dawgs 'cause I'm too one hundred
He cannot betray his friends because he is too loyal

You can front a nigga a thousand pounds, I can prove the money (yeah)
He can prove that he has the money if someone lends him a thousand pounds

They don't tell you about the other part, takin' showers with your boxers on
People don't talk about the uncomfortable aspects of prison, like showering with clothes on

If you ever go to prison, buy a knife before you buy a phone
If he ever goes to prison, he should prioritize buying a knife for protection over a phone

Got caught up in the system, ain't have life, but he ain't make it home
Someone got caught up in the system and didn't have a life sentence, but still didn't make it home

That's crazy, got killed in the place that was 'posed to save him
It's crazy that someone was killed in a place that was meant to protect them

I'm grateful that I got the paper to pay the lawyers, brodie waitin'
He is grateful that he has enough money to pay his lawyers and his friend is waiting for him

These niggas flaw, and I see the hate in they faces
The people around him are flawed and he can see the hate they have for him

I bet they'll be all happier if we could stop and trade places, but nah, nigga
He thinks people would be happier if they switched lives, but he doesn't want to do that
