Speaking From The Heart

I can't depend on nobody uh, but I know my people got me
How could you say you trying to help me, same time trying to rob me
Just because they say, "I got you", that don't mean they got me
Talking like we bout to eat then turn around and try me
My true potential way more greater, rapping just a hobby
And you a new fool if you thinking that you can stop me
Nice nasty, I can see the poison when they smiling
I be chilling 'Cause it be too noisy when you wilding
I remember grandma taking me to see my uncle
He was up the road, thank God I stayed out of trouble
Every time I see my uncle, we talk about grandma
And every time I see my momma, it's like I see grandma
My grandma told my momma I would play before she died
She never got to see me play the keys, but she ain't lie
I was by myself recently, about to cry
'Cause I know things would've been different if she was alive
It's one thing to go through, and it's only you
But it's another thing to see your parents going through
And you can't do nothing about it 'Cause you ain't even grown
You still growing up, living, learning right from wrong
My parents always tried to keep my faith high
My pops kept me far away from fake guys
I went to hood schools, I remember running home
They trying to jump me and my homie, we ain't do nothing wrong
I watched close and I learned a lot on my own
I was always the quiet type, rather be left alone
Riding in the car, listening to sad songs
Looking out the window, I know the pain won't last long
My cousin died, my uncle died, that really hurt my heart
'Cause there was times we was all in the same car
I remember walking auntie Lil Bit to the car
She passed away the next month, that hit the family hard
If don't nobody got my back, I know my shawty do
I got her in her feelings, that's what real love do
I can't take back, all I can do is shake back
And make sure I do my best to be better than way back
I be tripping but you know I only want you
I'm in the stu, I'm writing songs about you like, "what I gotta do just to get through to you 'Cause you been acting so distant, it's been hard to get to you" (Yeah, yeah)

Aye Chriso made this beat

Look, uh, speaking from the heart, every time you hear my music, it's a work of art, uh
Look, I don't want to fall apart, I got to keep myself together, got to keep on going hard, yeah
