Lyrics

My name is August
I'm so far from flawless
This heart has been damaged need a bandage where my scars is
These eyes have seen plenty
These hands have shook many
These lies took a toll from all of those friends folks turned enemies
And I'm really from the streets
Really where they play for keeps
Really where we taught hard heart, don't show emotions you'll look weak
But I've always just been me
Workaholic up for weeks
Wear emotions on my sleeve
On the grind until I'm weak
But I gotta keep movin'
Grindin' for more
Keepin' my hope
Covered in prayer, God, please don't let me go
Work on my trauma
Lick all my own wounds
Love myself like I'm supposed to
Keep my light when my days look low
Tell me could you do the same too
Still love me when it's very scary
Ride with me babe
Do a bid stack and grind say, I'ma pray wit ya'
Do or die type of love that vow to stay wit ya'
Ride top, bang hard, just caught a stray bullet
Practice love
February to forever-ary (Say swear)
Ain't no ending to us
'Cause you be my future, like June into July
Don't you lie
Let me introduce myself
My name, August
Have you, fallen?
Likes it's, August
Pardon, let me introduce myself
My name, August
Have you, fallen?
Likes it's, August
Pardon, let me introduce myself
