Maybe

(album: Paramount - 2023)

Maybe I can be the greatest man to ever touch a mic
Live a dream, what's it like?
Don't wanna deal because the price
Maybe I can take my family to another height
But the pressure busting pipes so we gotta hustle right
Maybe I can go back to my old hood
Build a couple parks and play my part just like we all should

I'm saying maybe
Maybe
Just maybe

Maybe we can fix your heart and grow your self-esteem
Motivate and help you dream, forget the voids you fell between
I apologize for all the lies, I did some selfish things
I was immature then, I ain't mean to hurt you, queen
Said I left you ruined, maybe I'm just stupid
Or maybe I'm still growing, maybe I'm a human
Maybe we need father figures to show us what we doing
All in pain, this life confusing
Maybe this can get you through it

Maybe, maybe
Just maybe
Maybe, maybe

Ain't nothing in this life for certain, but that's for certain
Plus, you don't fail when you fall so keep on working
Jumping through hoop after hoop, this shit a circus
Another day, another problem and I just can't find the purpose
Maybe these the curses that go to every person
Maybe there's a grand prize that makes it all worth it
But all I really know is that I see my people hurting
For my family, I be nervous trynna feed us off these verses
Granny said go to church but, that ain't really work
Maybe I'm too stubborn, and maybe I'm a jerk
But when you see yo nigga's face in the dirt with three bullets in his shirt
That's a different kinda hurt
Maybe I can raise my son just like my daddy didn't
Made me strong, I'm glad he didn't
But that hurt can last a minute
As a kid, I was thinking big
Go get a caddy tinted, keep a lil baddie in it
Maybe I just had to get it
Maybe, maybe

Maybe we can love a lil better, be a lil better
Trust a lil better, better
Maybe we can love a lil better, be a lil better
Trust a lil better, better
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Maybe we can run forever, or maybe we can come together
I don't really know what the fuck to do, I just want something better
But what's better? And when can that be?
Cuz this shit got as graphic as an NFT
Leaving home around one and coming in at three...am
Moms is mad when you spin that key
Aye, you, what you gon' do?
Yea, I'm talking to you

Maybe we can love a lil better, be a lil better
Trust a lil better, better
Maybe, maybe, maybe
