[Hook]
2
I love you so
3
But why I love you, I'll never know
4
[Verse 1]
5
Picture if you will that the throne's burning
6
Rome's burning and I'm sitting in the corner all alone burning
7
Why does it always end up like this?
8
Something that we don't determine
9
Same people that I fought for, that I fight for, that I ride for
10
That I live for, that I die for be the reason that these niggas is alive for
11
And they want me dead but I'm so sorry but I just can't die for you
12
But I can make 'em put their hands in the sky for you
13
We waiting for the fireworks like July 4th
14
Get fly more, get high more, cry boy, why for?
15
When the grief is over, beef is over
16
I'll be fly when Easter's over
17
I tried to teach niggas how to be kings
18
And all they ever wanted to be was soldiers
19
So the love is gone 'til blood is drawn
20
So we no longer wear the same uniform
21
Fuck you squares, the circle got smaller
22
The castle got bigger, the walls got taller
23
And truth be told after all that said
24
Niggas still got love for you
25
[Hook]
26
[Verse 2]
27
Showed love to you niggas, you ripped out my heart
28
And you stepped on it, I picked up the pieces before you swept on it
29
Goddamn this shit leaves a mess, don't it?
30
Shit feelin' like death, don't it?
31
Charge it to the game, whatever's left on it
32
I spent about a minute, maybe less on it
33
Fly pelican fly, turn the jets on it but first I shall digress on it
34
Wasn't I a good king? (Maybe too much of a good thing, huh?)
35
Didn't I spoil you? Me or the money, what you loyal to?
36
(Huh, I gave you my loyalty) Made you royalty and royalties
37
(Took care of these niggas' lawyer fees) and this is how niggas rewardin' me, damn
38
[Hook]
39
[Verse 3]
40
Bussin' at me, b-b-b-bussin' at me
41
But I'm bullet proof, bitch you can't get nothin' past me
42
Got body armor (A nigga gotta watch the throne)
43
And I'm bussin' back so niggas in a glass house should not throw stones
44
What do you do when the love turns the hate?
45
(Gotta separate from these fuckin fakes)
46
Caesar didn't see it so he ceased to exist
47
So the nigga that killed him had keys to his shit
48
Am I my brother's keeper? (Only if that nigga don't creep up)
49
Got a pistol under my pillow (I've never been a deep sleeper)
50
P-p-p-paranoia
51
(Cause the nigga that said he'll) blast for ya (is now) blastin for ya
52
That's an assassin for ya (These niggas got a shot they'll shoot)
53
Please Lord (forgive him) for these niggas (not know) what they do, ooh
