lyrics

They always say I'm up to no good.
Lord tell me why they put the pressure on me.
Quiet nigga from the wish-a-nigga hoods.
Dare a nigga pull a weapon on me
They tell me that I need to let go and let god.
I ain't made a plan yet.
Tell me everything happens for a reason.
Well I don't understand yet.

It be like, Life be passing you by.
Why keep asking you why? You so unresponsive.
You seem like you don't care.

(chorus)

Life me passing me by, why keep asking me why I'm so unresponsive, you seem like you don't care.

Text my girl when I make it big then, act like I don't know nobody.
World round me don't make no sense, they treat me like I owe somebody.
Why can't you pick up your phone when, all your loved ones keep on calling.
Drink that juice, when I was jonesing.
Break my wrist, I keep on balling.

Then we go,
Back to, back two. A place called home. That's cool, that's cool. Fuck.
Then we fuck, then we fight. Then we love, then you Lie. I'm cool if you cool, We cool, fuck it


Brian Brown:

So I’m back on road, The usual, Claim that I got time. You know it’s a lie. Fuck it.

Let’s just worry bout the now baby, go with the flow we could be here for a while. Fuck it.
Punch drunk love shit, fighting for a shot at you and all I hope is that you feel the same thing I’m feeling and if not, make it known don’t take on the lead if you don’t follow what you say.
That ain’t asking for much, you would assume yet folks still make it hard on themselves.
Me too, oh well, live and learn, take something from it, make it flip, get it how you live tho.
Is what it is, since a baby I dun heard all about getting out the crib. World renowned, well rounded, dumbfounded if you recognize me. The gab was the gift really, safe to say we talked about it
And even with that, I would much rather like to know what’s on your mind.
You that beam through the window, make me want to rise to the occasion, so go ahead let it shine.

(Chorus)
