Lord Knows

(album: Lord Knows - 2021)

Still thugging trying to live it up
Been around the world
Still feel like I ain't did enough
They got my back against the wall
Got a 30 in this glizzy, baby
I'm just trying to ball, yeah
And I been thinking for a minute
I been smoking, I been sipping, I been trying to dodge the system babe
But I accept the way I live
Got me tatted from my face, to my neck, to my rib
Reminiscing on the old days
I'm pouring drank, I'm trying to not go to my old ways
Still had it rollin on a slow day
Bouncing out a Porsche truck
Clutching on a new drac
In and out that Maserati thang
Hoping drugs ease the pain
Trying to catch a body, man
Reminiscing about my past life
Trying to get my current right
Trying to get my act right

But it's hard for a real nigga
Finger on the trigger, trying to stand over a little nigga
Got too much pain that I been holding in
Lord knows I'm holding on, trying to up the score again
Cuz nigga I can't never see my bro again
No you ain't never gon' see your bro again
Got too much pain that I been holding in
Lord knows I'm holding on, trying to up the score again

Imagine losing your nigga, to some fuck shit
Imagine making decisions that you stuck with
Got the choice to keep gunning or throw it out the window
And your conscience is talking, clutching that extendo
Feeling guilty your reaction ain't what should've been
Fuck it kamikaze life or death, we gon' meet again
Made a vow to my people that I'ma ride for them
If it's on & cracking, I'm there, then I'ma die for them
Too many people still breathing and I don't understand it
Tell you they love you, they lying, they just leave you stranded
Can't get back what I lost
Always poker face, if I smirk I'm playing it off
Aye, if you see me then you know I got it
You niggas ain't slick enough
Save yourself, don't even try it
Aye, and that tough talk I never mind it
"Bro" shit I don't trust
If nigga play, then nigga dying

But it's hard for a real nigga
Finger on the trigger, trying to stand over a little nigga
Got too much pain that I been holding in
Lord knows I'm holding on, trying to up the score again
Cuz nigga I can't never see my bro again
No you ain't never gon' see your bro again
Got too much pain that I been holding in
Lord knows I'm holding on, trying to up the score again

But it's hard for a real nigga
Finger on the trigger, trying to stand over a little nigga
Got too much pain that I been holding in
Lord knows I'm holding on, trying to up the score again
Cuz nigga I can't never see my bro again
No you ain't never gon' see your bro again
Got too much pain that I been holding in
Lord knows I'm holding on, trying to up the score again
