Angels watchin' over me, god damn
Hope the homies rest in peace, I can't
As I sink in the concrete
I throw a prayer to the old me
Twenty-five, they said twenty-five, the P on one side, he just turned eighteen
Sun shinin' when they hit my cousin, it was like a mob passed him, an okay day
Shit, some nights I see him 'tween the shadows and the smoke, man
God could watch me sin, he turned away from all my flaws, man
.45, he got a .45 and I pray to God he don't bring it, man
Sunset, just another text, and that last semester ain't mean a thing
Everything that's evil make me feel alive
Know my niggas on the Southside got my back tonight
If you want it, I got it, you want it, I got it
Can you tell that I'm high? (Ooh, ooh)
If you want it, I got it, you want it, I got it, now (High, high)
Smokin' on that fishbone, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, huh
Walkin' 'round with my chest pumped, like, yeah, yeah, yeah
Talk down, you get shot down, like, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ain't no rest in here, what you say? We don't care, yeah, ayy
Smokin' on that fishbone, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, ayy
Walkin' 'round with my chest pumped, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, ayy
Talk down, you get shot down, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, ayy
Ain't no rest in here, what you say? We don't care
Where my four-four? Where my po-po?
Po-po said can't have more, they said, "I got no drugs"
They say, "Yo man, you drunk?" They said, "Drunk man, you lose"
They said, "Drunk man, come close," I was very confused
I got friends that kill, I got friends that died
I got many woes, I got many wives
I got enemies, and I roll the dice, ayy-yeah, ayy-yeah-yeah
I got enemies, ayy-yeah, ayy-yeah-yeah
Smokin' on that fishbone, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, huh
Walkin' 'round with my chest pumped, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, huh
Talk down, you get shot down, like, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ain't no rest in here, what you say? We don't care, ayy
Smokin' on that fishbone, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, ayy
Walkin' 'round with my chest pumped, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, ayy
Talk down, you get shot down, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, ayy
Ain't no rest in here, what you say? We don't care
[?] machine, ah
Only feel good in my jeans, ah
Never gonna show 'em my sleeve, ah
I'ma go and get my teeth, ah
I'ma just smoke with me, ah
Never gon' set me free, ah
It's true love
It's true love
(It's true love) Hair down, wash it out
Fuck me up, oh my God (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(It's true love) Lord down, come around
When I see you, you gon' make me (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(It's true love) Hair down, wash it out
Fuck me up, oh my God (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(It's true love) Lord down, come around
When I see you, you gon' make me (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
It's true love (It's true, what?)
It's true love (It's true, what?)
It's true, it's true love
It's true love, it's true love
It's true love
It's true love, it's true love (True love, true love)
