Chorus:
How I'm feeling it doesn't matter
Cuz you know I'm okay
But still I ask myself why do you worry
You know, you know I'm the same
I know you don't love me, baby
Trying to take you away from me
Only over my dead body
Verse 1:
I spoke to mom after the longest time
Told her it was like history repeating itself
She said she was sorry for being gone so long;
She know the love seems to be depleting itself
But she said the situation wasn't gonn' defeat itself
And if we were gonn' make it, we had to stop cheating ourselves
Oh Well, to you moms outta sight, outta mind
But don't mean you shouldn't listen
If you could hear her she'd tell you to never feel inferior
To never let someone act superior, and to never fear
Listen to her, bro, greatness comes from the interior
Yeah you got it great, and you've got family even when you can't relate
And if you thought you were alone, I hope this ends the debate
I hope you don't take it personal
You ain't seen enough to make a person null
You told me it was hard to see your girl leave
But its harder to lose a brother trust me
Just keep your eyes on the prize-adjust your opticals
See through the obstacles, boy, anything's possible
96 mom brought you to Rwanda, I thought 'bull-she must be playing,'
I said I didn't believe in miracles maybe I should start praying
And something like the '96 Bulls, heard your AKYSB team had 3 wins
Hope you never stop playing, bro I hope you know you're amazing
While you're working on your fundamentals
Caught up I the fun don't forget the mental
Stay with what's essential don't waste your full potential
And this is the only sound you should hear right now
Man, just wearing a crown doesn't make it all right
Hook: I know you don't love me baby
Trying to take you away from me (You got your Sony's on?)
Only over my dead body (Alright Qaif Aazaan, Listen)
Verse 2: These days I wonder if it's too late for a fresh start
In trying to give you your space, I might've moved too far
Growing up seems like we were always grounded
It was still new to us but we still knew to reach for the stars
Ahah, that's probably why we so tall
Just know I got you if you everslip up and fall
You're old enough now to get your own set of plates
But just don't forget our brother's still got his case
Through good times and bad times
Like when we held hands to share dreams at bedtime?
These dreams been dormant for a while and now I think it's their time
Like Lin's first game when the Knicks dropped 99
Uh
I'm hoping you can take the hits and one, and keep it 100
Just trying to say I hope you see better days
And if they agree it's siratalmustakeem or not just don't lose your way
Do that for me, it would mean a lot, not much does nowadays
Work days and holidays even today on your birthday
Got me thinking about back, back in the day
When you'd say If it ain't broke, why fix it?
And I'd mention when you're broke, you'll risk it
And when systems it's broken, just don't let it break you. Break through, Q
I'd rather see you be a great you, than a good somebody else, see?
Whatever your fears you manage to dispel and your hearts compels you to be
Feels like we've been here before huh?
But we still got years to go bruh
And this the sound of your brother
Man these kids wear crowns over here but it's far from alright
