Talk to Em

Lyrics

[Chorus] Like a person needs his soul Like the winter needs the cold Just talk to 'em for a minute Ayy, just talk to 'em for a minute Like the baby needs to cry If you go I swear I'll die [Verse 1] How the fuck I'm free out here and you locked in there Your whole family acts like I don't care They don't know about the nights I just lay in my bed I can't even sleep, I just lay in my bed Eyes full of tears and a heart full of pain Take deep breaths every time I hear your name You was more than family, you was like my brother So when the shit went down it's like I lost my brother And I wish we could trade places Swear to God, dawg, wish we could trade places Livin' a life of crime, but it wasn't your life it was more like mine I often think about the close calls we had And I often think about the close brawls we had And I love my nigga, what you know bout that And I'll do anything to get Golmouf back talk to 'em [Chorus] Like a person needs his soul Like the winter needs the cold Make 'em understand, ayy Make 'em understand Like a baby needs to cry (Please, make 'em understand, look) If you go I swear I'll die (Ayy, ayy, look, talk to 'em) [Verse 2] Mel Man, you my heart, I swear to god Knew you was real, man, I saw it from the start Even when I was wrong, my nigga had my back Even when I was right, my nigga had my back We used to laugh, wasn't shit funny Late night at my grandma house counting money I trust you with my life, dawg If I was married, I'd trust you with my wife, dawg Any given time a half a mill in your possession You ain't called in two days man I still wasn't stressing 'Cause when I talk my nigga listen Switch shit, you used to help me with them pigeons Ernestine won't talk to me, dawg, and it hurts She treat a nigga like I'm the scum of the earth (Scum of the earth) In your eyes I couldn't do no wrong So to you I dedicate this song [Chorus] Like a person needs his soul Like the winter needs the cold (Ayy, talk to 'em for me, my nigga) (Yeah, feel me on this one, make 'em understand) Like a baby needs to cry (Ayy, talk to 'em, I don't think they understand me, my nigga, talk to 'em) If you go I swear I'll die [Verse 3] Must've bust ten rounds through the strap in your lap Knew I was a gangsta I wasn't going for that Pussy nigga in my yard? Talkin' shit? Knowin' damn well I was on some G shit? Let the whole clip ride and didn't think Let the whole clip ride and didn't blink You asked me kindly don't bring the white in the house And then what I do, bring the white in the house Bricks in the attic and ye'en know? Your grandson's killin' them, he's gettin' 24 Feds at the door, I'm out of town You ain't tell 'em shit, you held me down Now a-days, I rock the mic, I'm getting paid for that And all the shit I been through, I'm getting paid for that Always said I would make it, wish you could see me now But if I tried to tell her, she probably wouldn't believe me now Love you Mattie Lou [Chorus] Like a person needs his soul Like the winter needs the cold (Real talk, ayy, ayy) (You don't know what you got 'til it's gone, nigga) (Real talk, real niggas do real things, nigga) Like a baby needs to cry (Ayy, real talk nigga) If you go I swear I'll die (Mel Man, Golmouf, y'all already know what it is, nigga) [Outro] Mattie Lou Rest in peace, real talk (Peace, baby) Lost everybody in one year, nigga, I'm still here Ain't shed a tear, ain't shed a thought, nigga I'm still here, nigga Real niggas do real things, nigga Fuck it, I'm here, nigga Ain't going no motherfuckin' where, nigga Fuck what you think about me, nigga Get your shit together, come see me, nigga Real talk, nigga, 124, nigga, the 'Ville, nigga...
