(J-J-J-J-JR)

First day of summer, Roney sitting in his driveway
He burning za pack, listening to Rod Wave
Cars flying up his block like a cop chase
Roney getting money, but he don't do it the hot way
Mya coming 'round the corner looking crazy
Air one's dirty, shirts, shoes, Old Navy
Hair nappy, fucked Roney up he had to take three
Her pops used to be her hope 'til they caged 'em
Mya and Roney been good friends for a minute
Now her support gone, so she been real distant
Crib look like a bando, it used to be nice home
At night time ain't no more seeing the lights on
Roney like, "Damn Mya, what you got going on?"
Mya playing crazy like, "Move, I'm going home"
Roney pressing, he know something honestly going wrong
But, she like, "Let me thug it out, I'm tryna be strong"
Been tryna ignore it, but that shit ain't really working
Mya been down bad for some months, it got him hurting
He told her, "If you see me doing bad, it'll melt you
No more doing shit on your own, let me help you"
She agreed to it, we gon' breathe through it
When you level up, I'ma how you how to breeze through it
Your dreams right ahead, you just gotta reach to it
He did it for her and showed her how she gotta do it
So, time passed, he done got her cleaned up
Pocket full of money, Mya tryna live her dreams up
She look at Roney, tears falling when she peeped up
She like, "If we tell our story, they wouldn't believe us
We on the cruise seeing shit we never seent"
Roney agreed, he wiping tears off her cheek
Like, "Mya I know you love me", gave her a lil' wink
She like, "Yeah, but it's more than you think"

Ooh (Ayy, that's how you feel forreal?), say what, say what, say what
You know that I love you baby (Damn, hahaha)
Girl you know what's up and (How long you been feeling like that?) you know what I need
Ooh, say what, say what (That's crazy you should've been told me), say what
You know that I like it baby (You should've been told me, haha)
Girl you know (I'm fucking with you tho) what's up
Haha, ayy the feelings mutual you hear me?

Shot her to the hood, took her to the crib
She got 'em feeling light headed, like he off a cig
Pretty long hair, she ain't have to wear a wig
Took her clothes off and told 'em, "It's all his"
She like, "I always knew it'll be perfect, I know it sound crazy, but I'm really a virgin"
He looking in her eyes and he know she ain't purping
Slow motion, his turf, he gon' surf then
Next day he take her to dinner in a Rolls
The waiter take down order and brought a rose to her
Yeah, she think shit sweet, until he got down one knee
Up a ring and proposed to her
She got excited, then pause, then fainted, face first, full fall
She shaking hard, eyes in the back of her head
Roney shocked, but he picked up her body and fled
He hit the hospital, he need answers, he pacing
His mind wondering off, he can't take it
Waited in the lobby all night, they ain't say shit
Playing cool, but he want to haul off and break shit
Doctor came out like, "Thank you for being patient, Mya heart bad, but we gon' try and save it
Mya need surgery, but when we take her in it's gon' be a ninety percent she ain't gon' make it"
He go and visit, if it's death she gotta follow, he going with it
See Roney walk in the room, she was uplifted
Roney put that ring on her finger and he kissed it
Then he told her, "Where ever you go, I'm going with'chu
Baby, if we have got to separate, I'ma miss you
But, it won't be long until I'm finally with'chu"
Roney sick, tears falling, no tissue
Mya wipe his face off like, "Boy, please can't none take me I'm a mofucking G
Yo' love is my strap, so I'll never be weak
It's guaranteed, we gon' be out of here in a week"
The next day, Roney temperature on the rise
He praying that Mya come out of surgery alive
Pain in his heart, you can see it in his eyes
The nurse come out like, "Sorry sir, Mya died"
Oohh
Oohh-oohh

Roney fell asleep that night and had a dream
He seen Mya up under a waterfall stream
He walked up real slow, he ain't wanna cause a scene
He said in one go, "We gon' fall as a team
I told you where ever you go, I'ma come get you
We had a slight separation, baby I missed you
But, that don't even matter now that I'm finally with you
Traveled beyond life, just so I could come and kiss you"
Within the dream, he got Mya right there in his reach
The love telling, he ain't gotta come up with a speech
You can do anything, you just gotta believe
Suffering heartbreak, Roney died in his sleep
Oohh
Oohh-oohh
