Sing About Me, I'm Dying Of Thirst
When the lights shut offAnd it's my turn to settle downMy main concernPromise that you will sing about mePromise that you will sing about meI said when the lights shut offAnd it's my turn to settle downMy main concernPromise that you will sing about mePromise that you will sing about meI woke up this morning and figured I'd call youIn case I'm not here tomorrowI'm hoping that I can borrow a piece of mindI'm behind on what's really importantMy mind is really distortedI find nothing but trouble in my lifeI'm fortunate you believe in a dreamThis orphanage we call a ghetto is quite a routineAnd last night was just another distractionOr a reaction of what we consider madnessI know exactly what happenedYou ran outside when you heard my brother cry for helpHeld him like a newborn baby and made him feelLike everything was alrightLetras de cancionesAnd a fight he tried to put up, but the typeOf bullet that stuck had went against his willAs blood spilled on your handsMy plans rather vindictiveEverybody's a victim in my eyesWhen I ride it's a murderous rhythmAnd outside became pitch blackA demon glued to my back whispering, "Get 'em"I got 'em, and I ain't give a f*ckThat same mentality had told my brother not to duckIn actuality it's a trip how we trip off of colorsI wonder if I'll ever discoverA passion like you and recoverThe life that I knew as a young'nIn pajamas and Dun-ta-dunsWhen thunder comes it rains cats and dogsDumb n*ggas like me never prosperPrognosis of a problem childI'm proud and well devotedThis piru sh*t been in me foreverSo forever I'ma push it, wherever wheneverAnd I love you cause you love my brother like you didJust promise me you'll tell this story when you make it bigAnd if I die before your album drop I hope -Promise that you will sing about mePromise that you will sing about meI said when the lights shut offAnd it's my turn to settle downMy main concernPromise that you will sing about mePromise that you will sing about meYou wrote a song about my sister on your tapeAnd called it "Section .80," the message resemble "Brenda's Got a Baby"What's crazy was, I was hearin' about itBut doubted your ignorance, how could you everJust put her on blast and sh*tJudging her past and sh*tWell it's completely my futureA n*gga behind me right now asking for ass and sh*tAnd I'ma need that 40 dollars even if I gottaF*ck, suck and swallow in the parking lotGonzales Park, I'm followed by a married man, a father of threeMy titties bounce on the cadence of his tingling keysMatter of fact he my favorite cause he tip me with E'sHe got a cousin named David and I seen him last weekThis is the life of another girl damaged by the systemThese foster homes, I run away and never do miss 'emSee, my hormones just run away and if I can get 'em backTo where they used to be then I'll probably be in the denimOf a family gene that show women how to be woman, or better yet a leaderYou need her to learn something, then you probably need to beat herThat's how I was taughtThree n*ggas in one room, first time I was tossedAnd I'm exhaustedBut f*ck that "Sorry for your loss" sh*tMy sister died in vain, but what point are you trying to gainIf you can't fit the pumps I walk in?I'll waitYour rebuttal a little too lateAnd if you have a album date, just make sure I'm not in the songCause I don't need the attention bring enough of that on my ownAnd matter fact did I mention that I physically feel great?A doctor's approval is a waste of time, I know I'm straightI'll probably live longer than you and never fade awayI'll never fade away, I'll never fade awayI know my fate, and I'm on the grind for this cakeI'ma get it or die trying, I'm eyeing every male gender with intentions of buyingYou lying to these motherf*ckers, talking about you can help with my storyYou can help me if you sell this pussy for me, n*ggaDon't ignore me n*gga, f*ck your glory n*gga, this bullsh*t...When the lights shut offAnd it's my turn to settle downMy main concernPromise that you will sing about mePromise that you will sing about meI said when the lights shut offAnd it's my turn to settle downMy main concernPromise that you will sing about mePromise that you will sing about meSometimes I look in a mirror and ask myselfAm I really scared of passing awayIf it's today I hope I hear aCry out from heaven so loud it can water down a demonWith the holy ghost till it drown in the blood of JesusI wrote some raps that make sure that my lifelineRake in the cent of a reaper, ensuring that my allegianceWith the other side may come soonAnd if I'm doomed, may the woundHelp my mother be blessed for many moonsI suffer a lotAnd every day the glass mirror get tougher to watchI tie my stomach in knotsAnd I'm not sure why I'm infatuated with deathMy imagination is surely an aggravation of threatsThat can come aboutCause the tongue is mighty powerfulAnd I can name a list of your favorites that probably vouchMaybe cause I'm a dreamer and sleep is the cousin of deathReally stuck in the scheme of, wondering when I'ma restAnd you're right, your brother was a brother to meAnd your sister's situation was the one that put meIn a direction to speak of something that's realer than the TV screenBy any means, wasn't trying to offend or come betweenHer personal life, I was like "it need to be toldCursing the life of 20 generations after her" soExactly would have happened if I hadn't continued rappin'Or steady being distracted by money drugs and fourFives, I count lives all on these songsLook at the weak and cry, pray one day you'll be strongFighting for your rights, even when you're wrongAnd hope that at least one of you sing about me when I'm goneNow am I worth it?Did I put enough work in?Promise that you will sing about mePromise that you will sing about meI said when the lights shut offAnd its my turn to settle downMy main concernPromise that you will sing about mePromise that you will sing about meDying of thirstTired of runningTired of huntingMy own kindBut retiring nothingTires are steady screeching, the driver is rubbingHands on the wheel, who said we wasn'tDying of thirstDying of thirstDying of thirstDope on the cornerLook at the coronerDaughter is deadMother is mourning herStrayed bulletsAK bulletsResuscitation was waiting patiently but they couldn'tBring her backWho got the footage?Channel 9Cameras is lookingIt's hard to channel your energy when you know you're crookedBanana clip, split his banana puddingI'm like Tre, that's Cuba GoodingI know I'm good atDying of thirstDying of thirstDying of thirstHow many sins?I'm running outHow many sins?I lost countDreams of ballin' like SpaldingBut only shotty bounceThe reaper callingI'm cottonmouthMoney is power, yours is oursLay with a snitch, die with a cowardHope we get rich, hope we can towerOver the city with vanity with the music louderThe same songA black flowerI'll show you how toDye your thirstDye your thirstDye your thirstWhat are we doing?Who are we fooling?Hell is hot, fire is provenTo burn for eternity, return of the studentThat never learned how to live right just by how to shoot itTired of running, choirs is hummingTell us to visit, we lying about comingNow back to business, loading the guns inBack of the Buick, your hood is viewedAnd the beef is bubblingIt's no discussion, hereditaryAll of my cousinsDying of thirstDying of thirstDying of thirstToo many sinsI'm running outSomebody sendMe a well for the droughtSee, all I know, is taking notesOn taking this life for grantedGranted, if he provokeMy best days, I stress days(Lord forgive me for all my sins for I not know...)My best days, I stress daysSay "F*ck the world," my sex slaveMoney, pussy and greed was my next craveWhatever it is, know it's my next graveTired of running, tired of runningTired of tumbling, tired of runningTired of tumblingBack once my momma say"See a pastor, give me a promiseWhat if today was the rapture, and you completely tarnishedThe truth will set you free, so to me be completely honestYou dying of thirstYou dying of thirstSo hop in that water, and pray that it works" From Letras Mania
