Live For Me
(专辑: Party & Pain - 2017)
[Maino:] (Uh, yeah Live for me Live for me For my kids, lil nigga Woo, yeah I
need you to live for me, woo) Yeah, you don't understand right now I
lost my Pops same age that you are right now I
learned a
lesson, keep going when the
odds are down And when it's dark, you can see the
stars shine down I
wanna protect you, you don't know the
pain I
felt I
was trapped, spent years in a
cage, no help Tryna keep you out the
devil's hands Don't want you living like me, you be a
better man And the
plan is for me to help you get ahead Strong minded black male, that's how you advance And I
know in your mind, I
be hard at times You gotta know, in the
streets ain't where your hearts defined It's the
spirit you possess that'll help you grow I'm sorry that me and your mom's can't be that close Just to see you live, I'd give up my soul Gotta stay strong in the
event that I
go Need you to live for me [FNL & That Girl Georgie:] Was fine till I
think about it, but now it's intact Sorry I
had to live like that Was there I
had to give right back I'm gonna make a
way, someday And I
got yo back How to make it? I'll teach you that You need me and I
need you back Just keep me in your heart always [Maino:] Took time to realize Wasn't ready, busy womanizing Another child wasn't part of my plan, see And I
hate myself for wishing she'd swallowed that plan B, yuh I've done it, it looks just like me I
pray she doesn't fall for a
man that's like me, no Tryna turn into a
better father But my demons is pulling it's getting harder So I
wrote this letter for you in case I
wasn't with you Times that you were crying, wasn't there to hold the
tissue Just know I
love you, don't be scared to dream Remember that a
man only respects a
queen And I'm sorry me and mom's can't be that close But it's still my job to keep you off the
post Just to see you live, I'd give up my soul Stay strong in the
event that I
go I
need you to live for me [FNL & That Girl Georgie:] Was fine till I
think about it, but now it's intact Sorry I
had to live like that Was there I
had to give right back I'm gonna make a
way, someday And I
got yo back How to make it? I'll teach you that You need me and I
need you back Just keep me in your heart always [Maino:] Sins of thy father Pray my kids don't fall victim to my Karma Up nights just tryna feed her my gold heart, uh Black flowers what'd they minds, they grow sharper (preach) They will never live like I
used to Or feel the
pain and the
hunger I
was used to Cold nights hot days that was usual Just to see a
dead body that's not unusual Yeah, keep my son away from street corners Keep my daughter safe, don't let them creeps sweet talk her I
got many flaws, living with regrets A
ghetto king tryna raise my prince and princess [FNL & That Girl Georgie:] Was fine till I
think about it, but now it's intact Sorry I
had to live like that Was there I
had to give right back I'm gonna make a
way, someday And I
got yo back How to make it? I'll teach you that You need me and I
need you back Just keep me in your heart always
