The Season Carry Me

My faith is buried somewhere beneath the town

Until it's paid for

Strawberry season, my sweetheart is comin' 'round

I hear it rain and pour

How did you find me here? It must be perfect timin'

Forever grateful

If I didn't love you then I damn sure love you now

Fruit of your labor

Say ain't shit change but the bank statements

Spent the summer in the wave with the beach babies

Threw your chula in the buggie with the top down up the PCH

I'm heading' north, I hope it doesn't rain

Went from playin' community ball to ballin' with the majors

Oh, what you major?

Yeah, I ran bases, pitch flame

I call plays, remove labels

And  **** fame, that killed all my favorite entertainers

Nothin' short of amazin', ooh, yeah

But I'm short on my patience

See, I don't play that, I don't ever forget

And don't forget that dot, you paid for it

I spent years bein' called out my name

Livin' under my greatness

But what don't kill me is motivation

My faith is buried somewhere beneath the town

Until it's paid for

Strawberry season, my sweetheart is comin' 'round

After it rain and pour

How did you find me here? It must be perfect timin'

Forever grateful

If I didn't love you then I damn sure love you now

Fruit of your labor

Yeah, say, yeah

Six years old, I tried my first pair of Jordans on

Mama, can you carry me?

It was late in the fall, I caught a glimpse of my first love, my God

Mama, can you carry me?

Knees hit the floor, screams to the Lord

Why they had to take my ma?

Mama, carry me

To the early morn

Mama, can you carry me?

To the early mornin'

Mama, can you carry me?

Hey hey hey, gather round, hustlers, that's if ya still living

And get on down before the judge give the sentence

A few more rounds before the feds come and get you

Is you gonna smile when your date gets issued?

You know them feds takin' pictures

Your mom's in prison, your father needs a new kidney

Your family's splittin', rivalries between siblin's

If cash ain't king it's damn sure the incentive

And good riddance

Is the element of danger an important factor for the members of your peer group?

Yes, you might say that, why don't you give it a try and find out for yourself

'Bout the year Drizzy and Cole dropped

Before K.Dot had it locked

I was sleepin' on the floor, newborn baby boy

Tryna get my money pot so wifey wouldn't get deported

Cursin' the heavens, fallin' out of orbit

Tryna roll this seven, tryna up my portion

What about your goals? What about your leverage?

So they don't force you into some hole

What's the meanin' of my fortune readin'?

When I crack the cookie all it said was "Keep dreamin'"

When I look at my tree I see leaves missin'

Generations of harsh livin' in addiction

I came to visit durin' the seven year stint

But they wouldn't let me in because my license suspended

Now I'm scrapin' the pennies just to kiss you on your cheek

It's gonna be a couple weeks before I get it, I know you miss me

Six years old I tried my first pair of Jordans on

Mama, can you carry me?

It was late in the fall, I caught a glimpse of my first love, my God

Mama, can you carry me?

Knees hit the floor, screams to the Lord

Why they had to take my ma?

Mama, carry me

To the early morn

Mama, can you carry me?

To the early mornin'

Mama, can you carry me?

Mama, can you carry me?

Mama, can you carry me?

Mama, can you carry me?

Mama, can you carry me?

And one of these is my rise

One of these is my downfall

And I'm the one to make it right

I wanna make it right, mama

And one of these is my rise

One of these is my downfall

And I'm the one to make it right

I wanna make it right, Mama

Mama, can you carry me?

To the early mornin'

Mama, can you carry me?

To the early mornin'

Mama, can you carry me?

Oh Lord

Mama, can you carry me?

Mama, can you carry me?

Mama, can you carry me?

Mama, can you carry me?

Mama, can you carry me?
