TWIN FLAME

(albüm: GOD SAVE THE STREETS - 2023)

Yeah
Aha

Everybody starts off innocent, yeah, including me
So I relate to this brother like he's really family tree
He never really knew what love was, so he had to hit the street
'Cause every time he was at home, his mum and dad just used to beef
And it was getting to him, plus there weren't no food to eat
His sis was going so hungry that she found it hard to sleep
He had dreams that his mother told him that he can't achieve
He cracked under all the pressure, started linking crack fiends
Should've been at school, but he had work on him instead
Postcode wars, he didn't pick this address
No pain, no gain, he was hurt, blood, it was stress
Just tryna get himself out the ends, had to make ends meet first
'Cause mummy got an empty purse
He knew his dad will leave but never knew he'll leave in a hearse
No generational wealth, just a generational curse
From the mud, he really came from the dirt, he started cleaning up
One foot in the other out 'cause he's seen enough
But that boy's loyal to the soil, so his team was up
You should've seen the love he was getting once he was getting it
All the parties they let his brigens bring all their weapons in
It was still Grandma's prayers that were protecting him
'Cause he had a third of the ends second-guessing him
And they reckon one of these days was his day of reckoning
Got it from the kitchen, so man were thinking of chefing him
He was paranoid 'cause, in the cut, they stabbed his boy
Felt like the game chose him, and he never had a choice
Money or violence, his elders said, choose wisely
Couldn't trust a soul, so he never could choose a wifey
Then he met this good girl with some good traits from a good home
Out of town with his hood mates, and he took her home
He said, "Baby, life is a bitch, give a dog a bone"
She wasn't giving up to him, and it gave him hope
But he weren't trying to get too close
'Cause anything he ever loved just ended up in smoke
But she was like his twin flame, he felt connected to her soul
It was like his trauma just disappeared whenever she would hold him
So he held her down, showed her off, and took her out
Saw a future with her 'cause her presence made him smile
Plus, she wouldn't judge him even though he's been through trials
It's too good to be true, he's in denial

He weren't tryna fall in love, yeah
He weren't tryna fall in love, yeah
He ain't even known love so he was guilt-tripping all the time
But she saw the innocence in his eyes
He weren't tryna fall in love, yeah
He weren't tryna fall in love, no
He ain't even known love so he was guilt-tripping all the time
When she saw the innocence in his eyes, yeah
