[Verse 1]
2
You can drop a "Wet Floor" sign down for the tears
3
God and my court date, the two things I fear
4
Man, they tryna give a nigga years
5
I'm tryna figure if I should even appear
6
Or should I escape town? Catch a Greyhound
7
Change my name, right "“ catch a plane flight
8
Out the country, let them ma'fuckas hunt me
9
Come and catch me if you want me
10
Know they'll lock me if I stay
11
But where I'mma run to?
12
I got a good girl, we got a son too
13
And all we went through, we ain't see eye-to-eye
14
But what you told me way back, you was a ride-or-die
15
So if they give me one, or if they give me two
16
Or if a nigga gotta sit down and do a few
17
Before I go, baby, I gotta know, what would you do?
18
Would you find someone new or would you stay?
19
Like the hoes when they lay with me?
20
Puppy eyes when I go, sayin' "stay with me"
21
Aw, girl, you bad as hell and yet I'd love to
22
But see I got a girl I'm really makin' love to
23
Therefore I'm feelin' a lot more guilty when I rub you
24
That's why I skip all of that kissin' when I fuck you
25
Flush the condom down the toilet then I skate
26
I had you, but you can't have me, I never stay
27
[Hook]
28
Stay

[Verse 2]
30
Ha! Life in a hometown, "˜fore I could take a step
31
I'm gettin' grown now
32
And startin' to notice that I see the same hoes around
33
Guess they had to go "˜round, my raps is profound
34
I got the flows, but yet a nigga ain't got no sound
35
Copped a beat machine, I'm cookin' up my own now
36
Got my mind on the city where it goes down
37
See, if I'mma get to where I'm goin' then I can't stay
38
Although I love it here
39
I'll be damned if I sit around another year
40
Dreamin' dreams, hopin' somehow that they just appear
41
The hardest part of leavin' is to know my mother here
42
Oh, but I'm comin' back "“ oh boy, believe that
43
Let's show the little niggas, boy, you can achieve that
44
Got the city on my shoulders, piggy back
45
Hello, my name is Cole and I'm here to stay
46
