August Alsina - Song Cry lyrics

[Verse 1] Sometimes I get emotional And I can't seem to find the way I'm s'posed to go And all these so-called people that I'm s'posed to know They be the main ones Smile up in your face, but behind your back they hate So I hope you know You're like the only reason I'm emotional My tears fall like water so that I can gr Ow Not like I was before Tryna make a change, I need something more [Pre-Chorus] I can't hold back these tears Let me cry They say a man ain't supposed to cry [Chorus] So I'ma let the song cry I'ma let my soul cry through these words I need to try to free my mind Sometimes I need to cry just to ease my hurt But when I let the song cry Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine Every rose needs the rain sometimes But know that you can dry your eyes this time Let the song cry [Verse 2] What am I supposed to do? Hold it all together when I think of you? In my heart I'm thinking you were gone too soon May you rest in peace, yet I can't sleep It's my point of view Got me in a state of mind, I'm so confused Crying raindrops so that I can bloom So what am I to do? [Pre-Chorus] I can't hold back these tears Let me cry They say a man ain't supposed to cry [Chorus] So I'ma let the song cry I'ma let my soul cry through these words I need to try to free my mind Sometimes I need to cry just to ease my hurt But when I let the song cry Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine Every rose needs the rain sometimes But know that you can dry your eyes this time Let the song cry [Bridge] Let it breathe Let it breathe Let it breathe Let's get it [Verse 3] I may be cryin' now but I'll be laughin' later No way, wouldn't be easy when you're tryna be the greatest That ever did it or does it Ain't no f**in' time for later And I know they think I'm sporadic The ba*tard child of an addict But I'm way too calculated I try to love, but I never knew her This money, I'm blowin' through it Ain't rockin' red or blue, I'm unafilliated Cause my bloods and my cousins hate me I try to buy my mama's love, no she don't appreciate it So I stay inebriated I figured maybe J. Cole or Drizzy Drake Would drop a verse and tell the people how we hurtin' Guess I was mistaken This moment mine for the taking For all them nights I thought of suicide, contemplating [Pre-Chorus] I can't hold back these tears Let me cry They say a man ain't supposed to cry [Chorus] So I'ma let the song cry I'ma let my soul cry through these words I need to try to free my mind Sometimes I need to cry just to ease my hurt But when I let the song cry Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine Every rose needs the rain sometimes But know that you can dry your eyes this time Let the song cry
