Hood Scars 2 - J.I the Prince of N.Y

[00:01.865]Almighty Nate
[00:20.420]I gave my dawg a couple hundred, told him hold his head
[00:22.860]He locked up, so I pray for him before I go to bed
[00:25.209]My back was turned when y'all was talkin', but I heard what y'all said
[00:27.891]Got all these tears I done formed, but they ain't never shed
[00:30.569]They said they went through hell and back, when we was livin' there
[00:32.969]Tryna last a day inside my shoes when I got different pairs
[00:35.415]I can't believe this little b*tch thought she was slick
[00:38.152]I got the spits and then I dipped, I had to show her that I didn't care
[00:40.895]I pay attention all the time, you got no choice but to respect it
[00:43.352]I can't let them take my life, that's why we walkin' 'round with weapons
[00:46.311]I can't get you off my mind, it's to the point where I be stressin'
[00:48.867]I got played so many times, it was all I expected, nah, nah
[00:51.680]N*ggas televised my pain when I needed help
[00:53.778]I always thought I needed you, but b*tch, I need myself
[00:56.450]Who am I to believe a b*tch when I don't believe myself?
[00:58.859]And I refuse to please a b*tch when I can please myself
[01:01.646]I had my back against the ropes, I had to protect myself
[01:04.179]The hopes I had were way too high, I used to upset myself
[01:06.886]I gave you way too many chances, I had to check myself
[01:09.297]How do you expect me to respect you and you don't respect yourself?
[01:12.144]You had no reason to do what you did, but you still did it, n*gga
[01:14.623]They ain't think I'd make it out the hood until I did it, n*gga
[01:17.269]This for all them days when I woke up and wished I didn't, n*gga
[01:19.891]And where I'm from, we put in pain before we feel it, n*gga
[01:22.480]I gave my dawg a couple hundred, told him hold his head
[01:25.364]He locked up, so I pray for him before I go to bed
[01:27.776]My back was turned when y'all was talkin', but I heard what y'all said
[01:30.184]I feel no type of way, just take these bullets to the head
[01:32.837]I had what you need, I had what you want

[01:39.944]Tell you when to speak, blowing up my phone
[01:42.559]I had what you need, I had what you want

[01:50.559]Now you wanna speak, you be blowing up my phone
[01:53.022]I gave my dawg a couple hundred, told him hold his head
[01:55.919]He locked up, so I pray for him before I go to bed
[01:58.763]My back was turned when y'all was talkin', but I heard what y'all said
