Ty Brasel - Backyard lyrics

Verse 1: Smoking black and milds in the backyard They say I backslid got a bad heart But I've been feeling stress weighing tough though Life hit you so hard I'm talking cut throat My homie seen his momma in the backyard Laying face down when her heart stopped He told me he feeling like he can't cope Suicidal thoughts and it's mental Talking to my brother trying to ease that pain He barely see his daughter that's the only thing That's keeping him from going crazy right now Consequences hitting for the price now I know this ain't how it's supposed to be though All I see is d**h in these streets, cold Where we living in got me yearning Anguish in my soul got me burning, I'm burning inside I seen my homie catch a 25 to life charge And my homie was a victim now they both gone Now they celebrate his birthday from the graveyard The other celebrating from behind the cell bars But I know that could've been me though Running from the heat of the gunsmoke So I know either way I must be grateful I'm still alive to see another day, so I'm praying Hoping for that suffering to ease yeah I just need some peace or appeasement Having conversations with my home boy Then all my problems let it breath yeah I told him that my face shaking My heart is breaking It's desperation I'm under pressure, this here is dangerous I said my G I need some prayer ASAP He lift his head hard and this is what he said to me Lift your eyes up to God where your help comes down Life is a game ain't no telling what your handout out Just know that's refining you until you're gold gold Homie you gon' make it, do not give up on your soul This is not the end, this is not the end It ain't over yet, I promise that This is not the end, It ain't over yet Cause that's refining you until you're gold gold Homie you gon' make it, do not give up on your soul Just lift your eyes up to God where your help comes down Life is a game ain't no telling what your handout out Just know that's refining you until you're gold gold Homie you gon' make it, do not give up on your soul
