Guarded

Don't try telling me that I'm cold-hearted When the only way to your love is diamonds How'd you treat me if I had nothing? Lucky me, I got all that comfort No more drugs, I just want that substance How I got here? It was not so lovely But the pressure never broke me, nah It just turned me into a cold nigga, yeah yeah When they start noticing my strength They raise the bar, burden me more weight I'm still carrying some heavy things Broke my back for 'em plenty days Didn't kill me but made me change So now, I'm more guarded and protective over everything My time, my money, my love, my mind, my heart My heart, yeah yeah My time, my money, my love, my mind, my heart My heart Don't try telling me that I'm cold-hearted (yeah) 'Cause when I shared my pain, you were so unbothered (so unbothered) Said some things to me I can't stomach Why'd you feed me with all that nonsense? Made it seem self-inflicted, yeah you tried it This time around, I've been keeping shit private, yeah But the pressure never broke me, nah It just turned me into a cold nigga, yeah yeah When they start noticing my strength They raise the bar, burden me more weight I'm still carrying some heavy things Broke my back for 'em plenty days Didn't kill me but made me change So now, I'm more guarded and protective over everything My time, my money, my love, my mind, my heart My time, my money, my love, my mind, my heart My heart, yeah yeah
