Do Tell |
| Tell my mother I’m sorry I never meant to hurt her |
| And even when I did I never meant to take it further |
| Tell my father I love him Dot dot etcetera |
| He use to give me advice like a plethora |
| I tried to find myself but I’se your replica |
| I mean I only tried to be what you never was |
| Tell my older brother I’m bad at being a brother |
| I know I never told you just how highly I think of ya |
| Tell my grandmother man she’s always been a friend of me |
| I would’ve visited more if I wasn’t in to me |
| Tell tre I think his mother is an ass hole |
| When you get older you might understand how that goes |
| Tell the hood I left not for greed or wealth |
| I did it for my own sanity to keep my health |
| I tired to bring a few with me hoping we can cash in |
| But all they said is I ain’t do it in a timely fashion |
| Tell music she saved me when shit was adverse |
| My first love I’d give my life so she could have hers |
| Tell my friends each one they taught me how to be one |
| I owe to them part of everything I’ve become |
| Tell fame I ain’t want it naw keep it a hundred |
| I tried my best to go and get it but the nigga fronted (so) |
| I lie dormant Living threw torment |
| Tell cops I got warrants I don’t warrant |
| Tell the therapist Look I never thought I’d get here |
| Somebody ask love why she ain’t want to live here |
| So in this place there’s a lota pride Anybody thinking they know me |
| I apologize |
| Grandpa is 80 plus Still being strong |
| Tell the fake niggas keep on keeping on |
| Faithfully tell everybody who hated me |
| Basically all it ever did was motivated me |
| They say I’m difficult so to put it simply |
| Tell the world I never cared it was against me |
| Tell god to be there in case I fall |
| Tell the fans I never jipped them I always gave them my all |
| Tell my girl She put me threw it |
| But if I had to go threw it with anybody |
| I’m thankful it’s her |
| Tell every member of my family |
| For to long I hid behind my own insanity it got me caught up |
| And somebody tell currency I chased him to the death |
| I thought I’d catch the nigga till I ran outa breath |
| Tell my bruises I’m fine I’m good I normally heal quick |
| Tell the rain come down I need to feel it |
| I told the nigga give me a hand but he wouldn’t |
| I kept telling myself I can’t |
| Until I couldn’t |
| If niggas want to kill me tell em I already died |
| Tell anybody that will listen i tried |
| Till the water ran dry tell the water get the fuck out my eyes |
| Tell the crust it taste great but I’d much rather the pie |
| Ask success what I have to do to succeed |
| Then tell my twin brothers I look at them like my seeds |
| Ya’ll with be the mouths I feed |
| If a nigga ever tell me how to get rid myself of some of this greed |
| I tell em that I’m grown really I ain’t finish growing |
| Look tell failure I ain’t want to get to know em |
| Tell the stick up kids to come and get me |
| Tell the stereotypes I tried them shits on they didn’t fit me |
| Tell who ever I wronged I apologize |
| They tell me though there bumps in the road |
| But still I gotta ride they tell me I got a lotta pride |
| I tell them how the fuck you gone tell me what I got inside |
| Then they wanna lecture a nigga tell me life is what you make it |
| That’s when I tell them I beg to differ |
