When Thugs Cry
[Chorus] How can you just leave me standin' Alone in a world that's so cold Maybe I'm just too demandin' Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold Maybe I'm just like my mother, she's never satisfied Why do we scream at each other This is what it sounds like When Thugs Cry
[Verse 1] first off I got a seed comin' so I won't even front like I don't need nuttin' dependin' on record sales to see somethin' but if that fall back how the fuck I'm s'possed to feed lil' budden I've been in jail before I've been a bum before but a nigga ain't never had a son before I dealt with caine and fire I done banged with fighters but I ain't never changed a diaper I ain't ready ever since I signed niggaz been on my back like Mouse, 'what up? when I'm gettin' on the track?' and so the hood hates me figured they be much kinder like Joe 'congratulations, and we commin' right behind ya!' everybody in the hood I dap says I'm responsible for erverybody in the hood that raps they don't like how I do shit Say I changed but I#m the same nigga y'all went to high school with after all these years I'm still the same drug addict and it's fucked up I'm sober with the same drug habits I still pinch, thief, con and lie, rob, shoot difference now is I ain't high Cats is after me at least I got a crew to warn me I don't like walkin' around with this 32 on me atleast my mans is real atleast my family's there is it worth rappin? the answer's yeah, but i don't know...
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 2] I#m a survivor I seen darker days a mama's boy with my father's ways but I had to see my mom in tears when pop went to the newports that he must ain't find in years my lil' brother lives in the same state I ain't know that I got a little brother I didn't know that see I was never told that if so I'd of been at the door witha basketball and a kodak love my baby moms to death she don't believe that shit I ain't never there for her to see that don't wanna lose my wiz beggin' her to do this bid not jail but this music shit and I know your family hate me but we come far just us against the world unarmed Me and My Girlfriend come a time when your mind ain't right and you get used to not being used to I'm cool with where the lord placed me but I hold my heat and pray I never have to take it off safety I pray for all my niggaz pinchin' on the curb Jersey City will get the recognition it deserves I pray for my son he'll have genes like me pray that he don't have to go through everything like me pray to god to bring out the things I never knew I had in me the rest of my mom and dad in me, uh huh
[Repeat Chorus]
