And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman and our game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women, do we hate our women?

My big brother was B.I.G.'s brother
So here's a few words from ya kid brother
If you admire somebody, you should go on 'head tell 'em
People never get the flowers while they can still smell 'em
Call it a curse
Or just call me blessed
If you can't handle my worst
You ain't gettin' my best
Can't stand on business, I keep fallin' like Alicia Keys
My little boy seven, he the sequel to the thug
So I told him the money will never equal to the love
No matter what you say or what you do
When I'm alone, I'd rather be with you
Always gon' be a whip that's better than the one you got
Always gon' be some clothes that's fresher than the ones you rock
Always gon' be a bitch that's badder out there on the tours
But you ain't never gon' be happy 'til you love yours
No such thing as a life that's better than yours
There are few things that's forever, my lady
We can make war or make babies
I can't lie
You're a gem and I ain't even talking 'bout the star sign
Hope that we feel this, feel this way forever
You can plan a pretty picnic but you can't predict the weather
Love at first sight, love at first scroll
I love you like a fat kid love cake
She thinking Philippe, I'm think Chipotle (yeah)
On the oak tree, I hope we feel like this forever
Forever, forever ever? Forever ever?
Forever never seems that long until you're grown
Close your eyes and let the word paint a thousand pictures
One good girl is worth a thousand bitches
You own my heart, he just rentin'
Granted we known each other for some time
It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine
I don't get waves of missin' you anymore
They're more like tsunami tides in my eyes (Yeah, yeah)
There's no way I can pay you back
But the plan is to show you that I understand
You are appreciated
She say love is for free, just expensive to shop
Love is a beautiful thing if it's done right
But it should never make you feel like that you bein' dumb, right? (Oh, Lord)
But over here, everybody wanna be better than the next one…They might be fucked up, money-wise, but trust me, them muthafuckas is happy, man. Them niggas in harmony ‘cause they got each other.
Our summer die, our summertime don't got no time no more
My feelings told me love is real
But feelings known to get you killed
People that be in marriages for years, when they say till death do us part, they not talking about little arguments like if you leave the fridge open.
Poppin' Plan B's 'cause I ain't plan to be stuck with ya
A hero is a sandwich, and a Manwich is a meal
A marriage is a paper; are they fakin' or for real?
Anything worth having is hard to keep
I love you like my coffee so hot and so sweet
So let's, stick it out, so we never regret it
I could forgive the past, but I never forget it
And save breath, and avoid you, sober and upset in the morning
I wanna scream, "Fuck you, Lucy"
But the problem is I love you, Lucy
So instead I'ma finish my drink and have another
Mami like athletes, I start to laugh again (What's good?)
Whats your last name, boo? Kardashian?
It's gon' hurt me to hate you, but lovin' you's worse
Yeah, it's not a threat, it's a warnin'
Be careful with me
Your picture's still on my mirror, and it's so scary
I swear I still ain't looked at your obituary
It's to the point where I love and I hate you
And I cannot change you, so I must replace you, oh
You're all that I need, I'll be there for you
If you keep it real with me, I'll keep it real with you
I once contemplated suicide, and woulda tried
But when I held that 9, all I could see was my mama's eyes
No one knows my struggle, they only see the trouble
Taught me how to love, taught me not to cry
When I die, I hope you teach me how to fly
He keep pouring out his heart, I'ma leave him on delivered
They say you can't turn a bad girl good
But once a good girl's gone bad, she's gone forever
I can hеar your tears when they drop over the phone
Get mad at yourself 'cause you can't leave me alone
I guess a twinkle in her eye is just a twinkle in her eye
Wouldn't be real love without rough nights
Don't nobody judge nobody, only broken hearts allowed
It's hard to do these things alone
Just hold on, we're going home
We know each other so well that we past lying
And we past crying, and we past fighting
You can sleep with half the world
Bet you still won't forget me
Never could trust you, I still got your location on
Fell out of love, I delete all the nudes off the phone
Love yourself, girl, or nobody will
I get those goosebumps every time
Relationships slowin' me down, they slow down the vision
You even got me trippin', you got me lookin' in the mirror different
Thinkin' I'm flawed because you inconsistent
When I be ridin', man, I swear I see her face at every turn
Tryna get my Usher on but I can't let it burn
I watched my mama lose her mama
Go through drama and trauma but had to keep her head high
Beyoncé on my stereo, "Resentment" on repeat
I always want the truth, but it's dangerous (Dangerous, oh)
I've been around the world and back
I ain't met anybody I wanna be with more than you
Sometimes I like slim, sometimes I like thick
Sometimes I combine them and I like thim slick
I did it because it was from the heart. I did it because I like girls, and I wanted to rap to them.
If you want romance, you should just stick who you already with (Okay)
