LOVE

Lyrics

[Intro] I think love is just when you realize that, nothing else matters but the time we have now, mhm Yeah [Verse] Uh, so much time has passed since the last album dropped I've already made my spot without the label shop My music touchin' souls in ways that can't be duplicated A child of God, I'm liberated, see my greatness I calculate my next move like a chess board Disconnected from reality, I pulled the damn cord I gotta share my story to show you what really happened The reason for my being, the reason I picked up rapping I was 13 years old living with my mom in Florida Didn't get to see my father but knew he supported us So I hung out with my niggas just tryna ease the pain Seeing my mom drink herself to a bottomless chain My parents separated at two, I saw the outcome When you give up on the same person you in love with, you're not them I get a voicemail from my pops, I hear his voice shaking It was something about it, I knew that his heart was taken Next day, I had finals, so I'd just call him back Not realising that I would have a heart attack He said my brother died at 5am, he couldn't breathe I cursed God, why'd he have to make my brother leave? That nigga was a newborn, what he do wrong? He was a pure soul, I'm cryin' on this damn song I leave outta the class, my test on the damn table Mom picking me up, this shit feels like a damn fable I can't even focus on anything that makes me happy I left the school destroyed, the devil had fuckin' attacked me A couple years later, I channelled all that energy Just to make my first mixtape, that was my legacy No-one's perfect, and I rebelled straight from my family I felt like everyone around me would end up abandoning me Talks with my therapist, my father had cried with me Looked in his eyes and knew that we would just be tight forever So the feeling I had, I knew would slowly diminish Every song that I wrote would help me heal and replenish Memories of breathing tubes in a baby's body Lack of oxygen, that shit felt like an autopsy So when these niggas rap & talk about the clothes and hoes I can't relate to none of y'all, I'm in another zone I'm here to be a legend, better yet, to be a human I wanted to be a hero just like I'm Huey Newton All heroes die because the good always die young You wanna change the world, they make you bite your damn tongue I never started in this tryna be like nobody I figured out who I was thanks to the god-body So brother, I know imma see you again After Gundam part three, I know this shit might be the end Hero [Outro: JAY-Z] If you haven't experienced love and you don't understand it and you don't have the tools to move forward, then you're gonna have complications Period
