Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
Yeah
Thru the rain, thru the thunder and the storms
No I can't be quiet anymore
Cus they say when it rains, then it pours
I gotta code that I live by, aye (Live by)
I'm just so tired of being the good guy (Good guy)
Seen niggas do some crazy things just to get by (Get by)
I'd hate to tell my niggas goodbye
Yeah
I got some bitches on my phone (Phone)
That be naggin and shit
But I always lead em on (On)
Cus I can bag any bitch
And it might seem like I'm wrong (Wrong)
Like I'm braggin and shit
But for a minute I was gone (Gone)
Now I'm back in this bitch
And I always been the type to never ask for no help
I won't ever get it done if I'm needing someone else
I just take my feelings and I put em on the shelf
How the fuck can I trust you and I can't even trust myself
I can't trust you
If I can't trust myself, yeah
Myself
Myself
I can't trust you woah, if I can't trust myself
Yeah
Myself
