Dave East - Corey lyrics

[Intro] How could you hate the only brother that you never had? I don't take it personal, I promise I ain't never mad I could love you from a distance, I ain't gotta see you It might not be me but somebody need you Love don't disguise the evil [Verse] The summer coming, that mean bodies coming Youngins 'round here don't respect you if you ain't body nothin' I talked to Corey 'bout politics, know he probably frontin' Even though he labelled minority, know somebody huntin' Tryna avoid all the politics, Corey hated rumblin' Temptations calling your name will turn you to David Ruffin June 23rd homie got cold, they k**ed his favorite cousin Lawyer tried to give him options, he could not relate to nothin' Corey had a homie that rapped, he told him come play him somethin' Said he liked his music, it's different, he really sayin' something Corey had a job but his homie was broke Tryna rap, his homie lived with his cousin His homies bagged all kind of crack Corey went home to his family on the daily His homies had other n***as around, he knew 'em barely Corey naturally scary, so any issue he calling his homie His homie trapping for studio time, he walking only Sometimes he catch the train Every now and then he'd get a cab He got a gift, hundreds of thousands, it's written in his path Corey too stuck in his ways to chase a dream He'd much rather be content with his nine-to-five and it seems His homie is getting distant on him The music got him away from the routine so Corey said he got different on him He heard his homie got signed by a legend This the same n***a he could call, leave his mama the message That's the same homie you got jumped, told you ride with a weapon Same homie that seen them n***as and told you don't care if I get arrested Somehow y'all lost touch, Corey constantly blame his homie His homie tried to reach out but Corey was actin' phony Actin' fake busy, guess he felt that would balance out His homie working on his album, got no time to chat it out He offered Corey a flight, said he could land by tonight Corey replied sh** like maybe I might Corey pride took over, I ain't lettin' this n***a fly me out I'd rather play the hood anyway, it's nothing to lie about He ain't tell his homie that, told his homie he'd call him back A week pa**ed, his homie recording, he still ain't call him back His homie ain't even feel no type of way about it They both from the bottom, his homie found a way up out it Now the only way he see him is on Instagram He don't like his pictures, his homie stay in a different land People in Africa love him, homie got different fans Who would've thought y'all have different plans from gettin' ran Out the building when the police would come Y'all was robbing the pizza man before the pizza was done Corey homie had had a daughter, I think it start with a K Corey ain't bought a gift for baby girl until this day His homie on TV now, and Corey can see the crowds His fans know every word, plus they repeating it loud Homie nice with the fashion, he see him k** 'em with style Corey starting to feel it 'cause they ain't chilled in a while Homie kept it in motion, ain't seen Corey in a minute Homie got a hundred homies that's genuine, come with business Homie always f** with Corey but music is what he wanted to do Now when he be coming through he heard Corey be mumblin' too Talkin' how the homie left, forgot about the family And all he had to offer me was a flight to Miami Corey struggling but meanwhile the homie paid Homie got a crib, if it get dirty homie get a maid Corey envious, homie thinking if I was only paid Every time they say his name, Corey say that's my homie Dave [Chorus] How could you hate the only brother that you never had? I don't take it personal, I promise I ain't never mad I could love you from a distance, I ain't gotta see you It might not be me but somebody need you (Love don't disguise the evil) How could you hate the only brother that you never had? (how could you hate?) I don't take it personal, I promise I ain't never mad (I promise) I could love you from a distance, I ain't gotta see you (I ain't gotta see you) It might not be me but somebody need you (Love don't disguise the evil) [Outro: Corey] Hello, no one is available to take your call. please leave a message after the tone Yo, yo what up boy?
