LYRICS
-------------------
Verse 1:
We should try to keep our friends near
Spend years together, shed tears, try to reach for better
develop with your best peers, next year could never show up
so don't neglect your friends here better
reach for the cell phone try to call bro call sis
why does family exist God’s gift
You ain't supposed to live in isolation on a star ship
thinking everybody’s heartless cause the liars you never part with

Pre Chorus:
It’s hard shit, to live with nothing but you conscience
You’ll never see the world that’s beyond it
You’ll never get to feel so accomplished
If you ain’t find somebody real then I’ll promise
That It might get difficult
We were made to interact with each other not be miserable
Alone, wondering how we got ourselves here
So keep you squad tighter than ever with no fear

Chorus:
We all gotta maintain, quit the fussing and fighting
Time to be united
Circles only tight when it takes shape
But if y’all won’t invite in someone to take flight with
You gon feel lifeless with no aim
You’ll just keep on  surviving with nobody to ride with
But that is not a life that’s a cold game
We were born to be guided reach for the skies
Till we all reign


Post Hook:
But everybody on they own shit
Soulless, walking over the feet of the homeless
Hopeless, narcissistic and vain approaches to life
Never grow us, only put us closer to the roaches
Meaning, we consume without focus
And leave the whole globe sick
As soon as we approach we just won’t quit
We need to be a team devoted to keep peace in motion
Cause if we stay divided then it won’t end

Verse 2:
living with no regrets the bridges burnt they light the roads ahead
Don’t ever fold just keep on going and control your steps
One at a time, you’re gonna be fine you never should go for less
Always gotta time for my tribe, forever I show respect
So stay in line because I’ll die for mine
We gon be quite alright
Got eachother backs so any body try em
You’ll get denied we got the strongest tithes
Come around it’s homicide
This is where the honour lies I’ma ride
And for the record, no we won’t quit
Slaying muthafuckas who talk shit and make they squad forfeit
Cause loyalty you never forget, so if you wanna war shit
We’ll get it popping I’m at ya doorstep
And we’ll be coming like some War Vets
You’re stressed looking at a threat we only gunning for your neck
We ain’t the ones to run towards kid
Shit can get morbid they watching my six until it’s sorted

-Chorus-

Post Hook 2:
But many people stay abnoxious
Lost in all the drama and making a profit
Not yet, thinking bout they family in the process
Friends ain’t a option, only love the dollar in your pockets
just to say that you’re accomplished
But that is truly nonsense, where the love gone it’s forgotten
We need to leave all of the constant beefing and contest
Lose the ego and be conscious

Outro:
Tired of living like people just can’t hang
Feeble minded but equal these evils you maintain
Change lanes, you continue just feeding the same games
Ain’t fighting for peace rather just beef and remain vain
I don’t get it what the hell do you keep in your mainframe
Strange brain yea the way that you think is a great shame
But most of y’all are too damn stubborn to take blame
This separation and envy it only creates pain
Okay, just continue alone with your own dance
If you don’t have no kinda supporters there’s no chance
We all depend on each other that was the whole plan
From the moment we were put on the planet to romance
And create little children to grow up and hold hands
But now you stick your self homie you so trash
Disobedient the creator showed us the whole map
But your motivation isn’t supporting your own man? kind

Lyrics:

VERSE 1
Haven’t been me in a minute
I regret it, Ima change like dimes in the piggy
I been in a dream state, chimes on the Midi
Took her heart as a keep sake, I was like “gimme”
Hit a lil shimmy for a biddie in the club
Shawty would of got bent if she saw it when I did it
Love ya to death, ain’t a lie, I admit it
Like a ticket for a film I suppose, roll credit
Bet her name shows up, she deserves that
Remember way back I would curve that
Now, now I’m touchin where ya curves at
Wanna keep you around, gotta insure that
Cop a lil Geico
Walkin on a tight rope
Cuz she at her wits end, told her that bridge where we met is majestic 
And I could never burn that

HOOK
I, better get in control
Oh, cuz I been a fool
Gotta get grounded, baby
Highs, get mixed with lows
I been working on my balance
Can’t lie, bout to be a challenge, maybe I,

POST-HOOK
Need to get a grip grip grip
I got bad habits
Know I shouldn’t sip **ahh* sip,
But I gotta have it
Let me get a hit of the jay
Instantly I’m a savage
I gotta get grounded, baby I

VERSE 2
Just a couple bad habits
Be straight up, shawty so passive
About action, words never add up
Talk don’t matter if the trust subtracted
I ain’t a math whiz,
But I know division
And I ain’t tryna divide over some older business
Need a break, hit the bar with the fellas
Sippin potato vodka on rocks like Polish women
Where am I going?
Swear mama dun told me, that I’m
On a bad track
Turning back to the old me
I don’t wanna be lonely
So I stop and reflect for the whole week
Said, “Baby you right, need to change my life, I was hoping you could show me.”

HOOK

POST-HOOK

BREAKDOWN/BRIDGE
Wanna get loose, but I might lose you so Ima hold back
Now she understand that I’m only a man, but I gotta own that
Swear you been a blessing, I had to address it, she gotta know that
I think we gonna make it, we gonna make it yea…
