(Yxng Stov)
How you gon' keep it real with somebody?
You can't keep it real with yourself
Lying to yourself
You know you wrong
You know you ain't right, yeah

Lately, I've been in my feelings
I pray to God he take this pain away
They keep asking how I'm feeling
But I just tell 'em that I'm tryna maintain
I struggled in apartment buildings, yeah
But I'ma put my kids in a better place
Sometimes I feel like I don't listen, yeah
But I'ma keep on praying 'til I see better days
Baby, I just need some love and affection, yeah
Baby girl, I'm just a thug with some built up aggression
You the angel on my shoulder when I'm stressing
The Devil on my back tryna send me in wrong directions
Got murder on my mind, you don't got time, I know I'm reckless
Don't wanna be a victim to the guns, so I be stepping
Hoping it's a Heaven for a thug
I feel like I'm running out of love
Baby girl, I'm running out of trust
I don't know who to talk to, my nigga tried to snake me, I'm so done
When the laws come, they know I'm on the run, why?

I'm wondering if it's worth it, I know it ain't perfect, yeah
Girl, I know you've been hurting, but, baby, I'm working, yeah
Now, can you hear my soul cry? Hear my soul cry
Baby girl, I know you so tired, but we got soul ties

All this fake love and beef got a nigga paranoid
Soon as I wake up, grab the heat, try my best to ignore it
So you don't get caught in between, I be trying to avoid it
But it's harder than it seems
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And I know you so tired (so tired)
But we inseparable like our souls tied (like our souls tied)
No lie, sometimes, I don't know why (I don't know why)
You don't leave and let me be and go live your life (your life)
Maybe (maybe) we the Bonnie and Clyde of the day
'Cause lately (lately) you've been right there on side of me, bae
Don't play me (don't play), you know it's ride or die with me, bae
Swear this shit for life, ain't no switching sides, hey, hey

I'm wondering if it's worth it, I know it ain't perfect, yeah
Girl, I know you've been hurting, but, baby, I'm working, yeah
Now, can you hear my soul cry? Hear my soul cry
Baby girl, I know you so tired, but we got soul ties

Can you hear my soul cry? Hear my soul cry, hear my soul cry
Baby girl, I know you so tired, but we got soul ties
