FLAT shasta

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Ray Vaughn] Mama, I used to watch you scam and sell dope But as of now, I don't know what to tell folks when they ask me 'bout you Knowin' it's been a couple months since we done spoke So I try to break the tension with a joke, huh, truth is Mama, you need meds for schizo, but you won't take it If you lose all your marbles, you ain't gon' have none to play with A Black woman who cryin' for help and I'm tryna save her The last thing you want to be called in this world is crazy Aw, poor baby, I'm just prayin' that your Shasta ain't flat 'Cause you say a lot of shit that you could never take back Is that the reason why my daddy left? Just tell me the truth My sister Brie act just like you, a whole littеr You pushed seven of us out by thе age of twenty-five I don't see you when I look you in the eyes I'm lookin' for Aisha, I'm lookin' for the woman that's inside Just let me know when she arrives Mouth full of pills in front of us, could've died The world on your shoulder, how heavy is suicide? If God took you then, I wouldn't wanna be alive Shit, if God took you then, I would be at war with God, yeah [Chorus: Ash Leone] I wish I could save your smile I wish I could ease your mind like you have done for me Mama, just stay awhile Don't leave me like the tears that fall from my eyes I'm not crazy at all I'm not crazy at all I'm not crazy at all I'm not crazy at all [Verse 2: Ray Vaughn] Sometimes, I wonder if the reason I don't treat bitches right Is 'cause I never seen you get treated right If you pass me the cycle, then I'm fucked up for life 'Cause every nigga that you get with, you fight Uh, just let me know what happens when all of the hugs run out Mama, what do I do when all the drugs run out? Mama, your mind like a drink left in the sun The bubbles are gone, the damage is done But I keep pourin' my love into your glass Prayin' one day this storm gon' pass I need you bad, I, I need you bad To the woman that smoked weed with my brothers right before class To the woman that I love way more than my fuckin' dad Can I borrow one of your laughs and can I steal one of your smile? And can I hold onto your joy 'cause I ain't felt that since a child And if it wasn't for your womb, I wouldn't be breathin' right now I swear to God, I just need you right now [Chorus: Ash Leone] I wish I could save your smile I wish I could ease your mind like you have done for me Mama, just stay awhile Don't leave me like the tears that fall from my eyes I'm not crazy at all I'm not crazy at all I'm not crazy at all I'm not crazy at all [Bridge: Ray Vaughn] Mama, if you hear me, then I'm still your son Even when the darkness comes, I won't run I pray one day that you'll find your way back And that your Shasta never goes flat [Outro: Ray Vaughn] I'm sorry for not noticin' sooner, you know I'm one of your troopers Forgave you for everything, you only a fuckin' human Remember we lived on Hoover? On church grounds, hallelujah When you beat the shit out me for talkin' to you like I'm stupid Used to work two jobs, but you don't work no more I know you hurt, but I don't wanna see you hurt no more I feel like dyin' or just killin' myself Watchin' you lose your mind and can't do shit to help Nigga, you done drank all my motherfuckin' Shastas? Nigga, you over here, lettin' you sleep on the couch and you in this bitch drinkin' all my shit? Nigga, if you don't go take your ass down to the motherfuckin' Dairy
