## Lyrics

Bondin' over drugs and pain, dirty Sprite share

My dawg was one of a kind, I know your type rare

I know life is a bitch and she don't fight fair

How the fuck I wake up from a dream to a nightmare?

Left us behind, you seen that light glare

I know you walkin' up to Heaven on them white stairs

Why I can't just pull up to your crib and see you right there?

Nobody love you 'til you dead, that's when they might care

Let's just be friends before we rush into a label

Wanna know if you really fuck with me, girl, what's your angle?

It's only for the better if I'm tryna change you

Lovin' me ain't easy, if you leave, I don't blame you

Trauma got me fucked up, so I'm mentally unstable

I got wrapped up in my emotions, now I'm tangled

Deep in my thoughts and overthinkin' can get painful

Watch how I move, one wrong decision can be fatal

Hidden messages, conversations with my angels

Just walk with me and you'll see I'm tryna save you

Most times I'm by myself, I'm still confused from betrayal

From rags to riches, shit still hard, I'm just on phase two

Bondin' over drugs and pain, dirty Sprite share

My dawg was one of a kind, I know your type rare

I know life is a bitch and she don't fight fair

How the fuck I wake up from a dream to a nightmare?

Left us behind, you seen that light glare

I know you walkin' up to Heaven on them white stairs

Why I can't just pull up to your crib and see you right there?

Nobody love you 'til you dead, that's when they might care

Livin' on his own and he runnin' out of options now

'Cause he felt like he couldn't be hisself at his mama house

Hittin' licks, missin' school, junior year, he thought 'bout droppin' out

Him against the world, 40 on him when he poppin' out

On his dark road, he just tryna find a proper route

Hate the criticism, he uses music to block it out

By his auntie, he was molested as a baby boy

Messed up his head, it even changed the way he play with toys

Up late night rappin' and they told him to quit makin' noise

Stuck in his feelings, he be spendin' every day annoyed

He wanna stand over a n\*gga, leave his face destroyed

He miss his hood, now this something that he can't avoid

Bondin' over drugs and pain, dirty Sprite share

My dawg was one of a kind, I know your type rare

I know life is a bitch and she don't fight fair

How the fuck I wake up from a dream to a nightmare?

Left us behind, you seen that light glare

I know you walkin' up to Heaven on them white stairs

Why I can't just pull up to your crib and see you right there?

Nobody love you 'til you dead, that's when they might care
