[Intro: Brian Brown]
Right now
Came fresh in the Timbs too? Jet fresh in the Timbs! This for the niggas in the Timbs!
Make ya uncle wanna fucking nod his head to this shit, uh
What up Free? What up Cassic?
Ayy, The Release, part two (Ayy)
Got one already rolled for when I get off work
Tryna figure things out, she wanna make it twerk
Guess we all gon' look if you gotta be honest
Plus niggas' gon' nig', put that on mommas
Already know where we...
Damn, damn, let me see, uh
[Verse 1: Brian Brown]
May I get whatever got my heart heavy off my chest one time? (Yeah-yeah)
Much obliged
Mary J. got me wanting to share my world, let it spill
Run it! Overdue for this moment anyway, I must say
It’s been a while since the tape recorder days
Me, Dopey, and Tru was rhyming til' the sun crept thru the windowpane
Still want a Gangsta Grillz, Empire Tapes and shit
Nowadays, they hear ya boy and be like, “Where’d you find this?”
Who would've thought? (Shit) We did!
Couldn’t tell us we wasn't the hot boys as kids
No vendettas with Def Jam but for the love of music?
Ready to fight yo ass if you told us we couldn't do it
Yearning for more and passionate, so what's a dream deferred?
When all the motivation we ever needed was right there?
Somebody from 'round here with somethin' on rap city?
Knew that they would let me in eventually
I went from the dropout to: “Damn, when you dropping next?”
Been told niggas though, what the fuck did y'all expect?
Whether it was WKU or Duncan Avenue
Moving like the chitlin' circuit, just to bring that funk to you
Even thought 16 was enough (16 was), guess life was calling my bluff
Wasn't ready for the world but thankful for the tough love
To my brothers at the crib, on my pop's side of town
These days, I'm tryna do a lot better coming around (Why's that?)
Now family gatherings? They got a eulogy that way
Yet I still keep a smile on this motherfuckin' face
Lost my aunt to some shit you only see in a movie
Erase that clip out of my head, I call that there the lost footage
But I'ma hold it down for Cam the way you said you would for me
Lil' cuz foreva straight as long as I’m allowed to breathe
We was just talking having a girlfriend the other day
He hit me with the smirk, I guess he's fine either way
I guess if Lil' Art the one, then let me get a grip
I don't like to fall, shawty, sorry if I often trip
Played house for so long? Building somethin' sounds nice
Especially with somebody you talk to God about on certain nights
Angels East, angels West, North, and South, do ya best
Guide us as we go and watch us as we rest (Uh-huh)
I thank the homies up top for watching
Ask 'em for some sanity as I'm about to clock it in
[Chorus: Brian Brown]
I got one already rolled for when I get off work
Tryna figure things out, she wanna make it twerk
Guess we all gon' look if you gotta be honest
Plus niggas' gon' nig', put that on mommas
Already know where we headed foo, don't act crazy
I had to glance back one time and appreciate it
Yeah, not quite where we should be
Love me for who I am, fuck me for who I could be, ayy
[Outro: Brian Brown]
That's all a nigga want sometimes
That's all a nigga want sometimes
Is that too much to ask for?
That's all a nigga want sometimes
That's all a nigga want sometimes
That's all a nigga want sometimes
That's all a nigga want sometimes (That's all a nigga want)
That's all a nigga want sometimes (I know, I know)
That's all a nigga want sometimes (Is that too much to ask?)
That's all a nigga want sometimes
I be like
Why is you runnin' away from me (That's all a nigga want sometimes)
You know that you've been on my mind (That's all a nigga want sometimes)
Why is you jogging all on my brain (That's all a nigga want sometimes)
Baby... give some time (That's all a nigga want sometimes)
Have the keys come in like
