Stay

You can drop a “Wet Floor” sign down for the tears

God and my court date, the two things I fear

Man, they tryna give a nigga years

I’m tryna figure if I should even appear

Or should I escape town? Catch a Greyhound

Change my name, right – catch a plane flight

Out the country, let them ma’fuckas hunt me

Come and catch me if you want me

Know they’ll lock me if I stay

But where I’mma run to?

I got a good girl, we got a son too

And all we went through, we ain’t see eye-to-eye

But what you told me way back, you was a ride-or-die

So if they give me one, or if they give me two

Or if a nigga gotta sit down and do a few

Before I go, baby, I gotta know, what would you do?

Would you find someone new or would you stay?

Like the hoes when they lay with me?

Puppy eyes when I go, sayin’ “stay with me”

Aw, girl, you bad as hell and yet I’d love to

But see I got a girl I’m really makin’ love to

Therefore I’m feelin’ a lot more guilty when I rub you

That’s why I skip all of that kissin’ when I fuck you

Flush the condom down the toilet then I skate

I had you, but you can’t have me, I never stay

Stay

Ha! Life in a hometown, ‘fore I could take a step

I’m gettin’ grown now

And startin’ to notice that I see the same hoes around

Guess they had to go ‘round, my raps is profound

I got the flows ,but yet a nigga ain’t got no sound

Copped a beat machine, I’m cookin’ up my own now

Got my mind on the city where it goes down

See, if I’mma get to where I’m goin’ then I can’t stay

Although I love it here

I’ll be damned if I sit around another year

Dreamin’ dreams, hopin’ somehow that they just appear

The hardest part of leavin’ is to know my mother here

Oh, but I’m comin’ back – oh boy, believe that

Let’s show the little niggas, boy, you can achieve that

Got the city on my shoulders, piggy back

Hello, my name is Cole and I’m here to stay
