Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(We The Best Music!)
(DJ Khaled!)
[Verse 2]
You can see the pain in my eyes
See the tracks of my tears
Feel it deep in my body
You don't know where I came from
I can't go back, no I can't run
I won't do that for nobody
This world is so cold that I can't ever break my code
You won't ever take my soul, you won't ever
And I'm all alone, I ain't got no one to hold
But you won't ever take my soul, you won't ever take my soul
You won't ever
[Verse 3]
Love is a myth
Unless it's your mother, father, and kids
You beg to dif'?
Forgive them for their ignorance, they not rememberin'
I gotta give them their discipline
'Member when I used to suffer?
Struggle through daily pain I got it good now
I'm talkin' to mental plane, silencin' all the noise
Pray for the day I bust a nina on that bitch who shot Selena
Then I rejoice, uh
We some fathers to our boys
Birth a boy, you rich for life to see the joy
I live to see my kids doin' business, tell 'em everything's business
Basically everything's a business so make it your business to get it
[Verse 4]
You can see the pain in my eyes
See the tracks of my tears
Feel it deep in my body
You don't know where I came from
I can't go back, no I can't run
I won't do that for nobody
This world is so cold that I can't ever break my code
You won't ever take my soul, you won't ever
And I'm all alone, I ain't got no one to hold
But you won't ever take my soul, you won't ever take my soul
You won't ever
[Verse 5]
I had to Damon Dash 'cause my partners was maniacs, wish I had a Damon
I woulda been straighter with that shit
No Puffs, I had crack sellers to trust
No Suge's, not even no Harry O, shit, but we changed how the patters go
Free Bill Underwood, Morris Leavy was freed
Grabbin' dough, status quo was straight from the barrios
Khaled know how the calico was blowin'
To all my dogs CEOin', P and Coach K and Top Dawg, see we growin'
Bubba, my Highbridge ****, a lot of weed smokin'
Later I had my dog Steve, missing Lighty and my man Shaqir
Damn I wish man my dogs was here
You can see that we all some kings in our eyes
[Verse 6]
You can see the pain in my eyes
See the tracks of my tears
Feel it deep in my body
You don't know where I came from
I can't go back, no I can't run
I won't do that for nobody
This world is so cold that I can't ever break my code
You won't ever take my soul, you won't ever
And I'm all alone, I ain't got no one to hold
But you won't ever take my soul, you won't ever take my soul
You won't ever
