Yeah (Oohh)
No no
Yeah
Okay lets talk about it
I ain't really wit that funny funny, talk behind my back to bitches
Like I ain't gon find out bout it, walk around me
I lost my bro, I lost my cousin, lost my bitch
And I been lost about it since, no I don't really wanna talk about it

Feel like the demons that was chasing round my nigga tryna get around me too
Just hope someone can hear a nigga shouting
And I been goin through it lately, I just feel like you gon hate me
I be lost up in thoughts but I cant pout about it
I been around death too much lately, feel like I'm next
And I been alcohol abusing, tryna ease all the stress
Really been lost about this shit, I don't know what to do next
I'm out of motivation, I ain't really been at my best
Couple of my ex bitches for the streets
Listening to Sade wit da windows down, my only peace
And I don't trust myself so why you put yo trust in me
Don't even trust for real, that's why I let you do yo thing
I come from the cloth that they don't make no more
Bitch I been real like my whole life, I cant do fake no more
I want the realest baguette diamonds, cant do fake no more
Every time my bitch be tryna leave, I bring her back yoyo yeah
Why you buying all them guns, you ain't gon shoot shit
Needa buy yo ass a crib cause all you really do is sit
I'm on yo ass, don't get no pass, I see through you like a glass
I'll probably die over some jealousy, I meant that shit
And I don't even fuck wit niggas, niggas get too jealous for real
Tryna fuck my bitch behind my back, be glad I'm careless for real
Been having nightmares lately so this life I cherish for real
She say I'm different from them niggas, they generic for real
Be in my own zone yet them niggas still be tryna hate
Ima real nigga, me and lames don't ever correlate
I done been through hell and back, loyalty remained the same
If somebody out my life, its cause of them, I never changed
Y'all be lowkey corny, swear they'll do anything for attention
Never cared for the spotlight, I got god in my section
Losing friends cause you selfish, needa lose the aggression
We all lost a real nigga, why you thinkin you special
Okay lets talk about it
I ain't really wit that funny funny, talk behind my back to bitches
Like I ain't gon find out bout it, walk around me
I lost my bro, I lost my cousin, lost my bitch
And I been lost about it since, no I don't really wanna talk about it
Feel like the demons that was chasing round my nigga tryna get around me too
Just hope someone can hear a nigga shouting

And I been goin through it lately, I just feel like you gon hate me
I be lost up in thoughts but I cant pout about it
