Lyrics
0:01I'm hopin' I don't look down
0:03Ayy long enough to see me drown
0:07And if I ever come down
0:09I'll be fallin' on the solid ground
0:13Fallin' on the solid ground
0:15Ayy long enough to see me drown
0:19And if I ever come down
0:21I'll be fallin' on the solid ground
0:24Today I had a conversation with one of my bros
0:26My homie he's been close to me since we were six years old
0:29He calls my mama "Mom" he seen all of my highs and lows
0:32From school fights to sharin' clothes
0:34From B-ball to ******* h*es
0:35He sat me down and let me know some things he never told me
0:39Things he never got a chance to say or even show me
0:41He said "I know that I don't tell you often maybe not even at all
0:45But I'm so proud of you and your success broski
0:47And I admire how you chase your dreams that ****'s courageous
0:50Thank you for never switchin' up when you got rich and famous
0:53Thank you for never givin' up on me or havin' lesser love for me
0:57Whenever we lose touch and be on different pages
0:59I hope you know I'm here for you the way you there for me
1:02It's crazy you done more for me than all my family tree
1:05And when I say I got your back just know I really squeeze
1:08And make some really bleed that's really what I really mean
1:11I'm proud of how much you matured and grew but you still you
1:14The world knows you for your talent but I know the real you
1:17And all your trauma's behind closed doors you'll never heal through
1:20And all the pain you act like you don't feel but you still do
1:23I love the fact you keep your **** together mentally
1:26You work hard for your respect don't need no empathy
1:29When people look you over and shut you out intentionally
1:32You always said 'If they don't **** with you they will eventually'
1:35But remember when I went through prison
1:37When I did a bid and you the only one that came to visit
1:40Put money on my books and sent me pictures of some *******
1:43They don't make 'em like you no more my you just different
1:46And bro you ain't have to pay my niece's tuition
1:48Or set me up with that new job and try to teach me the business
1:51Always quick to hold me down before you speak your opinion
1:54What goes around comes around and that's the reason you winnin'
1:57But listen I was thinkin' maybe
1:59Since you my broski and I been there since we was babies
2:02You can hit the bank and break me off with somethin' wavy
2:05Maybe just a couple hundred-thousand
2:07Nothin' crazy
2:08'Cause I been hurtin' lately and I deserve it maybe
2:11And if you can't do it that's cool it ain't like I'll be angry
2:14You still my broski and I love you but that's kind of shady
2:17'Cause I been goin' through some **** it ain't like I'm just lazy
2:20So maybe you should pay me
2:21I quit my job 'cause I don't wanna work for no other
2:24What maybe works for some don't work for some other
2:27Yeah they pay good but you know I'm a stubborn
2:30Plus I know you got my back right
2:33If not then **** it I ain't askin' again
2:36Just don't forget who walked with you when your back to the wind
2:38And don't forget who's ideas that got you rappin' again
2:41When you lost your passion and got lazy and was slackin' and ****
2:44And please don't treat me like them that be askin' for ****
2:47'Cause I never asked you for a damn thing
2:49I'd rather pull a hamstring and then run across some fan blades while jumpin' out a airplane
2:54While sittin' in the damn rain while beggin' for some spare change
2:57I'm sorry that we all can't be talented and rich like you
3:00The little people still struggle we ain't lit like you
3:03And if we bein' honest it don't really seem like you want me to chase my dreams so I can get like you
3:08And lately you been on some sucker **** that's what I see broski
3:11I hope you know that hater **** is a disease broski
3:14'Cause last time I checked we was a ******* team
3:17And just because you got paper don't mean that you better than me broski
3:20I know everything about you
3:22I know every single secret
3:23I know where you rest your head at
3:25I know every ***** you sleep with
3:26I know where you keep your bread at
3:28I pretended I don't see ****
3:29You a greedy ************ you been hopin' I don't be ****
3:32You been gettin' fat while I been starvin'
3:34You been buyin' every car and house while I been in the garbage
3:37I deserve everything you got and more and that's a bargain
3:40You just wanna **** on me and see me fall and that's alarmin'
3:43You just hopin' I'ma tarnish
3:44You don't want me to be nothin'
3:46You don't wanna open doors for me
3:47You did a lil' somethin' but you could've did a lil' more for me
3:50No wonder why your father turned his back on you unfortunately
3:53No wonder why your set them traps on you to sorcery
3:56You ain't nothin' but a phony you a liar you a snake
4:00And you can rap but you ain't Kendrick you ain't Cole you ain't Drake
4:03Can't believe I called you family I should shoot you in the face
4:05Used to act like you was real but always knew that you was fake
4:08You let the fame get to your head and all it did was made you whack
4:11I always knew the day would come when you would stab me in my back
4:14One day your money gon' be gone and I'll be happy that's a fact
4:17And then you'll move back to the hood and I'll be laughin' when you back
4:20But you my and I love you
4:22And I wanna see you win I wouldn't place no one above you
4:25And you always been my friend since we was steppin' in the puddles
4:28Real don't pretend 'cause you're my brother you my double
4:31You my ************* twin and I wanna let you know how I appreciate the things you show me
4:35It's kind of hard to trust that's why I keep you closely
4:38And look I know that I don't tell you often maybe not even at all
4:42But I'm so proud of you and your success broski"
