Don't cry because it's over smile because it happened easier said than done when most
Our endings end up tragic
Staring in the mirror I'm so ready to live passive But it's my environment that keeps me active
And I hate it but I love it
Do you hate me? Or do you love me?
I hope you love me
Shit I hope somebody love me
The truth is only hard when expectations high Don't want to speak on my emotions rather lay them down
Waiting on mutuality it ran my patience dry My way out painful so I take it one day at a time
Don't know about them impoverished blues try fighting by the rules But playing in your game only results in getting bruised
We want to come up living lavish draping in them jewels but closest that we get to shining's when your partner on the news
I thought of seeking vengeance letting all my hate consume But shit I'm tired rather lay up in my room
You ever seen your momma crying over shit you can't fix?
Or grieved because your brother died you barely seen as a kid?
Or heard your homie took his life for issues nobody knew?
That's just a fraction of my pain but since I'm smiling I'm cool
Think 'cuz the Lord I'm still maintaining from a prayer or two
Outside unscathed I only ache in the booth
And so they tell me shit
Don't cry because it's over smile because it happened easier said than done when most our endings end up tragic
Staring in the mirror I'm so ready to live passive
But it's my environment that keep me active And I hate it but I love it
Do you hate me or do you love me?
I hope you love me Shit I hope somebody love me
(I know don't nobody love me nigga)
