Oh, I love you so
But why I love you, I'll never know
Oh, I love you so
But why I love you, I'll never know
Oh, I love you so
But why I love you, I'll never know
Oh, I love you so
But why I love you, I'll never know
Picture, if you will, that the throne's burning
Rome's burning, and I’m sitting in the corner all alone, burning
Why does it always end up like this?
Something that we don’t determine
Same people that I fought for, that I fight for, that I ride for
That I live for, that I die for
Be the reason that these n!ggas is alive for
And they want me dead
but I’m sorry, but I just can’t die for you
But I can make 'em put their hands in the sky for you
We waiting for the fireworks like July 4th
Get fly more, get high more, cry boy, why for?
When the grief is over, beef is over
I’ll be fly when Easter’s over
I tried to teach n!ggas how to be kings
And all they ever wanted to be was soldiers
So when love is gone 'til blood is drawn
'Cause we no longer wear the same uniform
F*ck you, ******s, the circle got smaller
The castle got bigger, the walls got taller
And truth be told, after all that said
N!ggas still got love for you
Oh, I love you so
But why I love you, I'll never know
Oh, I love you so
But why I love you, I'll never know
Oh, I love you so
But why I love you, I'll never know
Oh, I love you so
But why I love you, I'll never know
Showed love to you n!ggas
You ripped out my heart and you stepped on it
I picked up the pieces 'fore you swept on it
Goddamn, this sh!t leaves a mess, don’t it?
Shit feelin’ like death, don’t it?
Charge it to the game, whatever’s left on it
I spent about a minute, maybe less on it
Fly, pelican, fly, turn the jets on it
But first I shall digress on it
Wasn’t I a good king?
Maybe too much of a good thing, huh?
Didn’t I spoil you? Me or the money, what you loyal to?
Huh, I gave you my loyalty
Made you royalty and royalties
Took care of these n!ggas' lawyer fees
And this is how *****s rewarded me, damn
Oh, I love you so
But why I love you, I'll never know
Oh, I love you so
But why I love you, I'll never know
Bussin’ at me, b-b-b-bussin’ at me
But I’m b*lletproof, b!tch, you can’t get nothin’ past me
Got body armor
A n!gga gotta watch the throne
And I’m bussin’ back
So n!ggas in a glass house should not throw stones
What do you do when the love turns to hate?
Gotta separate from these f*ckin' fakes
Caesar didn’t see it so he ceased to exist
So the n!gga that killed him had keys to his sh!t
Am I my brother’s keeper?
Only if that n!gga don’t creep up
Got a pistol under my pillow
I’ve never been a deep sleeper
P-p-p-paranoia
'Cause the n!gga that said he’ll
Blast for ya is now
blastin' for ya
That’s an assassin for ya
These n!ggas got a shot, they’ll shoot
Please Lord, forgive him
For these n!ggas not know what they do, ooh
