Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Like the person needs his soul
Fight the will to need his own
(Just talk to 'em for a minute)
(Come on, just talk to 'em for a minute)
Like a baby needs to cry
If you go, I swear I'll die
[Verse 2]
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, I wish we could trade places
Living in 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 ****, what you know 'bout that
And I'll do anything to get ((UNKNOWN)) my back
Talk to 'em
[Verse 3]
Like the person needs his soul
Fight the will to need his own
Make 'em understand, hey, please, make 'em understand
Like the baby needs to cry
If you go, I swear I'll die
Make 'em understand, hey, please, make 'em understand
[Verse 4]
Mal, 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 **** had my back
Even when I was right my **** 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
Naw, 'cause when I talk my **** listen
Switch shit, you used to help me with them pigeons
Ernest T won't talk to me, dawg, and it hurts
She treats a **** like I'm the scum of the earth
In your eyes, I couldn't do no wrong
Naw, so to you I dedicate this song
Talk to 'em
[Verse 5]
Like the person needs his soul
Fight the will to need his own
Like the baby needs to cry
If you go, I swear I'll die
[Verse 6]
Must've bust ten rounds through the strap in your lap
Knew I was a gangsta I wasn't going for that
Pussy **** 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 ask me kindly not to bring the white in your house
And then what I do, bring the white in the house
Bricks in the addict and ye' ain't know
Your grandson killin' 'em, he getting 24
Feds at the door, I'm out of town
Ye ain't tell 'em shit, you held me down
Nowadays, 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, wish you could see me now
But if I tried to tell her she probably wouldn't believe me now
[Verse 7]
Like the person needs his soul
Fight the will to need his own
Like the baby needs to cry
If you go, I swear I'll die
