LOVE U (feat. ANG)

I'm taking in the sun on college campus Living life but every night it's something random Always out with two, so everything we do is tandem Question? fake chains and photoshoots it comes with rented phantoms Passport is tattooed the same amount as my body is One across my heart because I made it out my monument Mountains stacked against me I know what I am embodying Bodies on bodies asking about where the next party is And I take trips for myself, my body, health I don't move in silence, I'm vocal with it no stealth Like my pants baggy, tied tight ain't no belt Speak the truth but who asking 'bout what I felt I turn my neglect into my love for myself Dust catching' like a picture frame on my shelf Photographic memories from the past, I'm old now I'll be honest, I'm doin' shit I never knew how I've done shows for two people and a sold out crowd Either or, I give it everything and I'm still proud And yeah, time is what you need in life, I really know it now This conscious rap is everything Yeah, I know it's my sound And my style, my heart, my truth, my passion Back in high school, I was called out for rapping Now I go to school where everybody always clapping Only been a month, now I got other people with me rapping Then five weeks later, doin' shows at 208 Every track I do, I'm makin' sure I pull my weight I'm rapping like I'm hungry, but I got food on my plate Everybody marry the game, ain't even go out on a date Don't ever sell yourself for some temporary gain How many artists blow up and then we forget their name So quick to catch a body, but forget to snatch a chain Nothing's ever worth it when you tell them, rest in vain Spill the blood on my sleeve of my favorite shirt If I rap about my past, you still couldn't feel the hurt It took a long time, but I found out what I am worth Similar to you, we all end up in a hearse It's falling out, worth it for something that doesn't matter much Wash your hands clean, my mom told me to lather up So many dirty people call you out like you're the batter up Half the shit we do, do it even really matter bruh Out of every track I have, this was easier to write I wrote about myself, I wasn't writing it for spite Tryin' to prove myself to people that don't care about my life If some where given chances, they would stab me with a knife I'll admit that I was wrong at times, I'm man enough to know that These hard times make you strong, but I'm not man enough to go back To all those shitty nights where I was left outside to rot You would've thought that I was homeless, how I was clutching to that box And now I clutch this microphone like my life depended on it Like if I ever let it go, then my life would end on it Ending on a high note or an all-time low Who's to say, man, who even really knows I'm in the courtyard of the college I'm convinced I shouldn't go to I had to be believing in myself and now I know I'm supposed to Go out and get a job, learn to live on my own No matter where I go, I got the studio as home I was a little skeptical, I remember From the minute that we befriended I know you like to get down Pretending that we're somethin' we're not But that ain't such a bad thing Since we've been thinkin' the same thing From the beginning, I know we were all good When we were spinning, we couldn't think straight That's why it's beautiful, love that ring Why don't we go get another Why don't we go take a trip And pretend that there ain't no mothers or fathers around To tell us"honey you got to get down" Don't understand the things that are happening Left, right, or surrounding All the stars on my head are kind of being ignored Like I don't know what a sound is And I'm allowed in A situation I didn't think I'd be found in I look around and realize I'm past the housing This might be a home Sometimes I wonder if you treat me this way Because you love me somewhere Inside your heart, I love the way you start A sentence, now I'm all there I know it ain't all too fair But keep goin' and goin' and goin' and goin I love it when you stare Don't get me wrong here and there, I'm still a little scared You keep me up, but I know you know I know I care I try to keep it up as much as I can Sometimes I trip, I let a homie live and try it again Frustration ain't born out of love I like this cause I'm stuck and I'm handed a stick of butter Cause it'll probably get me out of this problem It's rotten, we should've let it go Even when we said goodbye, it wasn't too rough It wasn't that easy, but we did what we could 'cuz we were tough Traveling through this new gravel was just Something I had to do anyway Didn't break a bone and get jumped I said I could, I'm great I love it when you stay I love to see the smile on your face Regardless of the mind, regardless of the place Regardless of the body, regardless of the weight I love it cause you're okay Boy, you'll never catch me sayin' it like Pony, boy, shit, don't even say nothin' to me Boy, with that, with that whole, like, with that whole Oh, oh, I think I love you, bullshit Get the f*ck out of here, bro What are you even sayin' to me, bro You're a hard-ass motherfucker Now start actin' like it Straighten you back, tell me what's up, man I don't, I, I don't fuckin' know
