What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
[Verse:]
2
Just trying to explain the unexplainable
3
More than trying to attain the unattainable
4
Trying to make it sustainable
5
Collecting all the parts, see if they interchangeable
6
Killing me slow, but I'm glad it's entertaining you
7
Everyday it amaze me
8
The same thinking that pay me the same thinking that plagues me
9
How can I think I'm crazy? Sway me
10
Cause to profit off of shit that aches me is actually pretty wavy
11
I'm painting the perfect picture
12
Only perfect cause the imperfections are highlighted
13
To gross currency off of that kinda sickness
14
Changes the meaning of mind my business
15
Giving what was given to me
16
So the soldiers come over unsober
17
And call me Yoda instead of Joseph
18
I be like "why they come to me for advice?"
19
They should really come to me for a vice
20
I got 'em all
21
Got a counter full of liquor, pocket full of pills
22
The illusion of control, I can tell you how it feels
23
Accounts full of paper and the women I play with
24
All got criminal bodies, innocent faces
25
Come around and we have a ball, could have it all
26
Well, I ran out of Adderall, but that's a matter of a call, check it
27
Odds is they start telling me they hardships
28
Regardless, they end up wanting hard dick, aww shit
29
You would think they been ordained
30
Got her legs in the air, she screaming the Lord's name
31
I'm feeding her more game, more game, more game
32
I started fucking her mind, that's when all them thoughts came
33
She keep saying if I want her I should fight for her
34
My plight for her says I don't know if I'm right for her
35
Even so know there's a fire I ignite for her
36
Staring at her ceiling, seeing me like I'm a nightcrawler
37
It's like she love me, but she don't
38
That's when she lose me, that's when she confuse me
39
It's what I get appalled with, can't call it
40
She think I should remove her hurt since I installed it
41
But I wish she knew I was returned 2 birds
42
Feel it hurt me more knowing I hurt you
43
Even though it exists I don't ever bring it up
44
We don't be doing nothing, but it's everything to us
45
Presently she bring up the past and it's filthy
46
You not talking to who I was or who I will be
47
But that's my own assignment
48
You want to take all the feelings and the time spent
49
And give it realignment
50
Check the catalog, lateral God
51
I self-sabotage, I'd explain further, but I'd rather not
52
Salute, on me, everybody have a shot
53
I do it for the niggas they said wouldn't have a shot
54
But some days are better than some days
55
Still yet here I stand on numb legs
56
Women don't give a fuck that I have these scars
57
I'm fucking the same hoes that the athletes are
58
What a rollercoaster, we argued and we sexed
59
Face in her box, James Harden in her texts
60
Nigga from the Clippers every morning text her "good morning"
61
She be sleep, he just be talking to me, my nigga
62
None of this is a pain to see
63
I only care about her if she pertains to me
64
Shit I'm tending to emergencies with urgency
65
That urge in me is my daily fight in her purging me
66
Fuck hoes, I ain't got time to be sprung now
67
Grandpa's cancer just made it to his lungs now
68
In 2012, docs gave him few months; wild
69
He's alive somehow, outlived 2 sons, wow
70
So no the observation
71
Says he'll die quicker with chemo and radiation
72
He ain't strong enough to even go through operation
73
Know that death's coming, he just in the house waiting
74
So you telling me there ain't a way to fix the shit?
75
Or is grandpa too old for you to give a shit?
76
Let's switch the shit, give you my predicament
77
Wonder how you would feel if I was telling yours live with it
78
And it's traveling to his heart soon
79
Of course it all hit me like a harpoon
80
I was in shock and then it was all clearer
81
When he called me and asked me to be his pallbearer
82
I was floored
83
But then the next second was back
84
To being self-centered, self-absorbed
85
And it became about me, fought it off long enough
86
I could help carry your weight, but I ain't strong enough
87
But why do I have to be?
88
This the shit I be naturally asking me, I'm such a catastrophe
89
See me breaking down with my father in back of me
90
So for me to attend, I'm trying to think of a strategy
91
But I'm happy for my dad
92
He was incarcerated, but his mama didn't make it
93
So for him to get that chance again with you
94
Means the world, he could be there til it end for you and me
95
I bleed out through this pen for you
96
Can't carry this around, gotta vent, it's due
97
Cause now, grandpa'll be closer to his wife
98
Have cards when I come, we playing poker in the sky
