Guard Your Heart

(الألبوم: Detroit 2 - 2020)

I'm broken in pieces, down to the soul
I know the whole world can feel it
I know that they can see it (Oh)
Oh, I hate to admit that I need you
I need you, I need you next to me
You said that you would ride for me
And I hear you but right now
I need to feel you right next to me
'Cause this is all I got, prove that you got me
(Oh yeah) Oh yeah, yeah (Broken in pieces)
'Cause this is all I got, prove that you got me

Yeah
So if you say, "nigga", then I'ma say, "Is that a Ritz?" Mmm, ooh
50 niggas deep (Deep), 100 niggas step
Million Man march (Mmm), cracker don't you start (Yeah)
Hold your head, guard your heart, hold your head (Uh)
Nigga, get your bread, light your spark, strike your mark, life don't stop
So hold your head, guard your heart, hold your head (Yeah)

Conflicted in this free based world of give and take (Take)
'Cause I always rather give than to be the one saying thanks (Whoa)
Conflicted like being signed to Ye and managed by Jay
Conflicted like being cool with Pusha and Drake (Damn)
Conflicted like repping a city where I hardly stay (Stay)
Or knowing that you wrong but it's too hard to say
Hold your head (Hold your head), guard your heart (Guard your heart)
In my life those were the hardest parts (Yeah)
So many dark times I wish I caught a spark
Or learned not seeing eye to eye could be fixed with a heart to heart (God)
So many lost, I feel lost, got me feeling like a real nigga Holocaust
Got me mourning while it's dark (Dark)
Life will eat you alive, we know how to be a meal
Shit, rather than see a mill to make it out you need a skill (Yeah)
Thought I was past my past but let's be clear (Clear)
Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear (Swerve)
Regretting everything in life is my only fear (My only fear)
And you know what they say about not conquering fears (What?)
If you don't then they'll always be near
As that reminder in your ear, shit that I ain't tryna hear (Nah)
Hold your head (Hold your head), guard your heart (Guard your heart)
In my life those were the hardest parts (Swerve)
Oh, you mistake me falling down for falling off (Whoa)
Or mistake me being soft for speaking from the heart
I guess life hasn't taught you as much as you thought
Instead of picking up your missing pieces, you pick me apart

Boy, hold your head but guard your heart
Got tired of white silence so the riots started
And the robbers robbed, you wyling 'cause your product gone
We mad that Eric Garner, Breonna, Gianna father gone (Yeah)
A lot of trauma, we tired, exhausted
Ermias the prophet said it'd be a marathon, look
Seen all my dawgs, shown me God was watching
Pandemic slowing 'em down, they fasting, Ramadan
The land of fifty stars on Hollywood marching
White friends don't got us, I promise you I block 'em (Straight up)
I'ma count my bread, I defied the odds
And fuck the Saint quarterback 'cause he ain't Saint Laurent
Boy, from here on out we on Pyer Moss
If we leave Reebok, we still bringing pumps in all the broads
I motivate (I motivate), I don't divide (I don't divide)
The 45 a coward for practicing otherwise
A burnt nation, said it's under God
Now gone throw the towel in, I'm by my brother's side
Your niggas be your niggas when you level up
You see that your niggas and brothers different when luck is up
So I trust nothing, this industry's something
My biggest rival is my mind protecting my thoughts as well as my heart

It's 50 niggas deep (Deep), 100 niggas step
Million Man march (Mmm), cracker don't you start
Hold your head, guard your heart, hold your head (Uh)
Nigga, get your bread, light your spark, strike your mark, life don't stop
So hold your head, guard your heart, hold your head (Yeah)
