Babe, will you wait for me or will you break on me? Get ghostfaced run and close the gates on me? I know this is on me, I got a long streak Of doing the wrong thing I'm sorry I'm faulty The thought never crossed me what it would cost me A love lost might be the offspring now I'm salty And I'm sulking...Cuz you're gone from me A part of me, ultimately... The crime was mine responsibly I'll do the time Likewise don't cry for me Your tears make me wanna weep I can't appear as weak In here the wolves may mistake me for sheep Makes me think we should say peace And stay cool; if we separate you can't cheat I won't hate you; it's only betrayal if you claim you're faithful Later I find out it ain't true [Verse 2] I need a super trooper To keep my loot on loop for 2-plus Newports, not Bugler, a tube, and some music to bump Some J. L. Marcus hookups And some freak pics, in Vic Secret To peep when I'm beat sick Phone s**in' wanna hear you rub one out to completion... I keep thinking bout the reasons I lost my freedom I started to read some: the Quran Learning 'bout Islam and Allah: recited the Shahada on the yard, I'm a believer New man new planned procedure And I'mma need ya to be my Khadija Pledge an allegiance I'm m**m out of this A life of this is love

Nobody forced you, you had a choice you could've refused You gotta choose what's more important to you [Verse 4] Few months left 'til Exodus When I resurrect as a Con with the Ex in front Get a job dawg best of luck, you're just a step up From Illegal Mexican, better catch a truck This time has really tested us They had said we would self-destruct Undeveloped couples seldom stuck I tell them we're not delicate; a cloth of a separate cut Home from the halfway house my first social You don't roll through, you're ghost boo I phoned you and spoke to your folks who got no clue Your pops talk sharp I lose cool Told me I don't own you I showed him what the dial-tone do Finally emerged wonder why I'm in a foul mood Where were you? You wasn't at work, wasn't hurt; what could deter you? And why you got on someone's perfume?
