Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Me and E-God just fought 'cause he family wouldn't stop talkin'
We neighbors who argued often
I run out joggin', one tossed a jab and I caught him
He threw a left, ain't connect, 'cause I ducked when I came back up
I seen his sister talkin' trash, like, touch my brother I'm beatin' yo' ass
So I fucked her brother up to see what she about, yeah
Walked away and then we noticed that his teeth was out, yeah
She ain't do shit, she just mad we got to see him pout
[Verse 2]
So me and Cell, we just fought
I was walkin' and then he jogged me
I dropped to the floor while callin' for help
In front of my grandmother's house
The next hit, he punched me, my mouth
I can't believe I'm on the ground
'Cause I tried to hit him, I gambled
[Verse 3]
I'm ugly, cryin' in public
I'm like, when I get you back you gon' wish that you never touched me
Somehow I never could touch him
Our brothers broke the shit up
And I walked the rest of the day with my head down
Funny how gettin' your ass beat'll spread 'round
[Verse 4]
But I don't wanna fight no more
'Cause I'm not a fighter, I war no more
I don't wanna fight no more
'Cause I'm not a fighter, I war no more
[Verse 5]
So me and E-God, we scrap again
Jacob jumped in, I'm handicapped
Manny watched from across the street
Then he ran up and hopped on me
Three on one, they teamin' up, but me, I never think to run
They circlin' around, got me surrounded like police or somethin'
[Verse 6]
So it's bad enough, they already jumpin' me
Then I see Cell comin', I'm prayin' please don't fuck with me
It's not fair and I think he agrees
So instead of fighting with them, he came and teamed up with me
[Verse 7]
Me and Grandpa ain't talked since I stopped attendin' the college
He called me, said I'm a scholar, I should be gettin' my doctorate
Or shit, at least in the army, instead chose to hip-hop
But I know how this is gon' end
'Cause I went through this with your father
[Verse 8]
Me and my girl just fought 'cause I talked before she could talk
She was tellin' a story, I cut her off
With some shit not 'bout the same topic
So she just stopped in the middle before the plot
Hit the rest of the car ride silent, like, you always do this
[Verse 9]
Like you don't value my thoughts, either that or you too damn stupid
To realize that if you don't hear me out, then I'ma feel muted
You say that you care, well, show it, I'm not askin' a lot
I know you think you listenin', but you just waitin' to talk
My fault
[Verse 10]
But I don't wanna fight no more
'Cause I'm not a fighter, I war no more
But I don't wanna fight no more
'Cause I'm not a fighter, I war no more
[Verse 11]
It's harder to love myself when all these people compliment me
Somehow it just remind me what I don't got
But these folks don't care to know
They think you rollin' in the dough
Not realizing your next meal is a 4 for 4
[Verse 12]
Still feelin' that guilt that Walt never thought to call
Fightin' myself to get out of bed
I'm fightin' myself to get out of bed
Fightin' myself
[Verse 13]
But I don't wanna fight no more
'Cause I'm not a fighter
[Verse 14]
Me and all my **** dropped out
Then we drove to Texas, left at Walt's house
Kicked out of the hotel, we all broke
We don't got no mattress, sleep on yo' floor
[Verse 15]
Me and Grandpa ain't spoke since I dropped out
Make sure on my first tour, stop at his house
I sleep on the hotel, not yo' floor
He tell me that he proud of his boy
[Verse 16]
I'm not jealous of the boy on the square
Savin' for a round trip, LAX
I just learned the snow is no reward
I slept on the floor at Port Author'
[Verse 17]
Me and all my **** dropped tears
I been on the floor for a whole year
We all broke
We all broke
