Messenger

Just the messenger, don't shoot me
Stress will make a nigga lose sleep
They wasn't 'round me on my way down
Had me feelin' worthless like a toothpick
Now I'm up, they wanna come around
I give them niggas the run around
Mommy told me never trust them
So I'm only stayin' with my brothers now
Just the messenger, don't shoot me
Stress will make a nigga lose sleep
They wasn't 'round me on my way down
Had me feelin' worthless like a toothpick
Now I'm up, they wanna come around
I give them niggas the run around
Daddy told me never trust them
So I'm only stayin' with my brothers now

I was so down and low
I lost my shine, I lost my glow, and nobody cared
Ain't nobody would share, I swear nobody was there, and I
Didn't know where to go
One room, one book on stereo
Life look like one big scary road
The smile on my face was there for sure
Now I'm paid, don't fade, yeah
Got me feelin' insane
Pray that something gon' save them
Pray that something's gon' change
Overcome with this emotion
I'm floatin' alone in the ocean
Thought they were mates, thought they were my soldiers
Turned into snakes, and rats, and rodents, trapped in the moment
Trapped in the ride
I just couldn't get out, I was livin' in hell
Alcohol on my brain, molly took me away
Locked up in these chains
I don't know if it's ever gonna change

Nothing ain't picture perfect
Everybody slip on the surface
It hurt when my nigga got murdered
Yeah, I cried when my nigga got murdered
Nine to nine, the nigga got workers
I provide the niggas with burners
Rather dead, them niggas on jokers
Rather dead, them niggas just learners
What have I nurtured? raised up killers
I ain't proud that they came up drillers
Lord forgive me and my sinners
We just tryna be winners in this losin' game
Where they shoot and aimin'
Young nigga wanna shoot for the same but
I'ma tell you the truth, it's a waste of time
I think we're doomed in this place of mine
It's a state of mind
Niggas locked in jail, they just chasin' time
Judgin' a paigon fight
Man, I struggle to pray at night cah'
What do I believe in?
I can't get with these scriptures and readings
The sky is the limit so break through your ceiling
Just trust in yourself, keep believin'

Just the messenger, don't shoot me
Stress will make a nigga lose sleep
They wasn't 'round me on my way down
Had me feelin' worthless like a toothpick
Now I'm up, they wanna come around
I give them niggas the run around
Mommy told me never trust them
So I'm only stayin' with my brothers now
Just the messenger, don't shoot me
Stress will make a nigga lose sleep
They wasn't 'round me on my way down
Had me feelin' worthless like a toothpick
Now I'm up, they wanna come around
I give them niggas the run around
Daddy told me never trust them
So I'm only stayin' with my brothers now
