Fear Over Love

(Great John on the beat, by the way)

Been up, yeah, yes

Holdin' my head up, me dead or in jail

But that's what they want

But that's what they need

Look

You know it get worse before it get better (Yeah, yeah)

Still holdin' my head up

Expectin' the worst, still pray for the better (Yeah, yeah)

Still holdin' my head up

Me dead or in jail, but that's what they want (Yeah)

But that's what they need (Yeah)

But that's what they need (Yeah)

Just to lie and throw labels on me, ****

What do you see when you look at me? Huh

I'd rather fear over love, loyalty come before royalty, huh

I know that they sick of me now

Glock movin' like medicine, look

I know that they missin' me now

But never tried look for me then

I know that these **** pretend, so I gotta

Stay with the Smith like Wesson, huh

Mama, I'm sorry, still movin' around

I'm still movin' with weapons, huh

Been through the shelter, we been through the struggle

We been through it all, huh

Don't want your problems, just tell me your problems

I'm solvin' 'em all, I'm solvin' 'em all

You know it get worse before it get better (Yeah, yeah)

Still holdin' my head up

Expectin' the worst, still pray for the better (Yeah, yeah)

Me dead or in jail, but that's what they want (Yeah)

But that's what they need (Yeah)

You know it get worse before it get better (Yeah, yeah)

Still holdin' my head up

Expectin' the worst, still pray for the better (Yeah, yeah)

Still holdin' my head up

Me dead or in jail, but that's what they want (Yeah)

But that's what they need (Yeah)
