Tears For Breakfast

As bad as I want to, I'm at the end I cannot continue to stand & try to pretend That niggas wasn't calling me brother in the begin Until I told em no, now I'm the one they had to defriend but why? I can't give up now But as bad as I want to, I'm at the end I cannot continue to stand & try to pretend That niggas wasn't calling me brother in the begin Until I told 'em no, now I'm the one they had to defriend But why, it's hard enough just being a man I can't show emotion without 'em saying I'm weak I can't take a break without 'em saying I peaked But victory be sweet when you done felt defeat Now look, if you're with me, stay with me until our times up Crossing paths with pure people be divine luck Most of 'em be with you when it be beneficial Not because you're official and that part sucks If the love isn't real, I can't fake it no more I'm running out of patience, I can't take it no more Cause if I get the win an you Holding out yo hand an you Looking for some bread, I can't break it no more Ex all in my DM, saying I M Y Yeah I always see it, I just don't reply Know she got a man but that's just how she ride Did the same thing to me and that shit hurt, I cannot lie But karma coming to her, when that time come Everybody know that's something you can't hide from But to play with someone's heart Take advantage of their time And manipulate their mind, don't define love, whoa Q this Dad, this dad I'm callin' to see how you doing I gave, Jason yo number A friend on uhh, Avondale I'll call you tomorrow I caught em at the sto' he said tell 'em yo dad gave me yo number I'ma talk to you tomorrow or shortly Thank you, I love you, y'all have a nice night Look, pops an alcoholic, I never held that against him I know what it do to you when it's all in ya system You did the best you could with the resources that you had But, knowing your potential, the only thing made me sad Cause, when you're not drunk, you're the greatest ever An them talks we use to have, was the greatest lectures I remember you & Tylene Would come and get me & Nette To take us to the park, just to play together A single dad, two babymamas and two kids The oldest is the son, who stay handling biz Ya youngest is the daughter who steady tallying wins Both college graduates with rich melanin skin, whoo Brag about us dad, you deserve it Better know we all human, no one's perfect So I'll never resent you, never hold it against you Better know I'll defend you & that's for certain, yeah
