Love Yourself Raw

Love yourself, love yourself
I'm talkin raw hardcore
I'm telling you that you are meant for more

So I sit back think / Do I love myself and if I did would I indulge myself / like a kid / with e-ve-ry single drug I could get inside of my head / bed ridden fled from withdraws / they cripple me at the hip when I dip sideways / homies got me trippin what happened back in the days / pray FERPA reaper just evil up in a daze / came for my body and left me inside a maze / nod off / got me workin like I'm stuck in the system pumpin the piston like a fuckin sawed off / Wishin life was like a politician easy bought off / I'm a god awful wreak / I always wanna resign but I'm needed by the creator a lot I gotta do on my time nevermind a mind check / Hanging high bonsai feel the crackle through the back of my Adam's Apple rapelling through my neck / Begging to die steal tech and then in my tables let em grapple send a cripple on after em what's next / Now when I hate my self and turn off the mic lay down the pen and abandon text / And all alone I fall face down first am I cursed to a fiery depth / Back into a cat with these nine lives fightin like a rat in a cage overdosin on cyanide / Took a highnight, magnifying glass, and take a really good look up under my life / open up my eyesight / deeper than the finite / rippin with the reaper when I was seekin a no one in my life / Everything's changed since the days I used to go crazy now I got kids and a fine wife / Until she went in my level I feel like I could've learned how to love myself before I try

I took me years to shed tears and peers are disappeared from here to no love / Street certified from trials to cold files getting profiled as a little kid growing up / All I knew was hate the faith as I break the state to wash plates from basin buildin up / So we strike at night da fights at the street lights the bark that might bite take flight to new heights / from aggrivated assults to muder my life's dim / Facing five to ten and my outlook's grim / Never knew a God back when never had a lick of love for myself, for a friend / There is a loyalty amongst theives I know everybody talkin about how they be wonder for the homies / That's a lie suicide from the tide will they really be there when the Loc about to drown / Had a one real God to profound me / fill me with the love above astounding / real love for myself, for my homies left, livin in my family around me / Devil's got a killer seeking get em on the bounty / hare bred live from the heart Owakan county, love / cock up in the evil made it so much full of light up in the dark is where I was so in the dark is where you found me
