Breakdown |
| Look, I just shed tears homie and now I ain’t too proud to admit it |
| Just seen my father for the first time in a minute |
| And when I say a minute I mean years man |
| Damn, a whale could have swam in them tears fam |
| Cause as I left them I reflected on my younger days |
| When it was just me and my brother and my mother played |
| Father, cause no other man bothered |
| Not even my biological, it never seemed logical |
| But I accepted it cause I ain’t know no better |
| Thought I was brighter than a Polo sweater |
| No pops was like Martin with no Coretta |
| So many things you could have told me |
| And saved me the trouble of lettin' my mistakes show me |
| I feel like you barely know me |
| And that’s a shame cause our last name is the same |
| That blood type flowin' through our veins is the same |
| My mama left you and maybe your anger’s to blame |
| But that’s no excuse, only you and God know the truth |
| And why you only call monthly, barely ever saw me |
| Spend some summers with you and played with my cousin Maury |
| Maybe I should be tellin' you fuck you cause you selfish |
| But I want a father so bad, I can’t help it |
| I break down, I break down |
| Can’t help but break down |
| I break down |
| I never thought I’d see my mama on that shit man |
| It’s fuckin' with her body, now she sick damn |
| I wanted a big house with a white picket fence and a pool |
| Who would have ever thought that it would come to this, man? |
| Quicksand is what this life feel like |
| That shit these rappers kick is nothin' like real life |
| You made a milli off of servin' hard white, yeah right |
| My mama tell you what addicted to that pipe feel like |
| Stupid niggas, I heard the cops be shootin' niggas |
| I swear to God, wish I could bullet proof my niggas |
| Can’t get no jobs, but they still recruitin' niggas |
| We tryna stand tall when it gets to crucial niggas |
| Break down! |
| We break down, we break down, we break down… |
| Servin' time, locked down |
| And she don’t want nobody to know, his daughter 25 pounds |
| By the time he get out, she gon' be 4 |
| Now will his girl stay down? |
| Ain’t no doubt, she love him yeah that’s fo sho |
| But temptation stays round |
| And if she strayed, how could he ever know? |
| Never know and so, she goes to the club on the weekend |
| A little freakin', but them niggas holla |
| But she never speakin', but tonight I see the devil creepin' |
| Cause she been lonely, she ain’t felt a man in 7 seasons |
| Damn! |
| She do the best that she can |
| Her mama tellin' her to find another man |
| She college educated with a felon boyfriend |
| That’s what she thinkin' tonight |
| Maybe she’s right, but please |
| Stay down mama! |
| Gotta be strong, don’t break down mama! |
| Please… stay down mama! |
| Gotta be strong, don’t break down mama! |
| Don’t break down, don’t break down, don’t break down, don’t break down… |
| Break, break down |
| Steady break me down |
