Song Cry

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Sometimes I get emotional

And I can't seem to find the way I'm s'posed to go

And all these so-called people that I'm s'posed to know

They be the main ones

Smile up in your face, but behind your back they hate

So I hope you know

You're like the only reason I'm emotional

My tears fall like water so that I can grow

Not like I was before

Tryna make a change, I need something more

I can't hold back these tears

Let me cry

They say a man ain't supposed to cry

So I'ma let the song cry

I'ma let my soul cry through these words

I need to try to free my mind

Sometimes I need to cry just to ease my hurt

But when I let the song cry

Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine

Every rose needs the rain sometimes

But know that you can dry your eyes this time

Let the song cry

What am I supposed to do?

Hold it all together when I think of you?

In my heart I'm thinking you were gone too soon

May you rest in peace, yet I can't sleep

It's my point of view

Got me in a state of mind, I'm so confused

Crying raindrops so that I can bloom

So what am I to do?

I can't hold back these tears

Let me cry

They say a man ain't supposed to cry

So I'ma let the song cry

I'ma let my soul cry through these words

I need to try to free my mind

Sometimes I need to cry just to ease my hurt

But when I let the song cry

Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine

Every rose needs the rain sometimes

But know that you can dry your eyes this time

Let the song cry

Let it breathe

Let it breathe

Let it breathe

Let's get it

I may be cryin' now but I'll be laughin' later

No way, wouldn't be easy when you're tryna be the greatest

That ever did it or does it

Ain't no fuckin' time for later

And I know they think I'm sporadic

The bastard child of an addict

But I'm way too calculated

I try to love, but I never knew her

This money, I'm blowin' through it

Ain't rockin' red or blue, I'm unafilliated

Cause my bloods and my cousins hate me

I try to buy my mama's love, no she don't appreciate it

So I stay inebriated

I figured maybe j. Cole or drizzy drake

Would drop a verse and tell the people how we hurtin'

Guess I was mistaken

This moment mine for the taking

For all them nights I thought of suicide, contemplating

I can't hold back these tears

Let me cry

They say a man ain't supposed to cry

So I'ma let the song cry

I'ma let my soul cry through these words

I need to try to free my mind

Sometimes I need to cry just to ease my hurt

But when I let the song cry

Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine

Every rose needs the rain sometimes

But know that you can dry your eyes this time

Let the song cry
