ONYAWAY 02:24
I said hey! I let you come inside, but I’m sorry you can’t stay Oh no! Gotta go! There’s the door, please be… OnYaWay OnYaWay OnYaWay Please be on ya way Adios, vaminos We falling down, dominoes We not as close, I thought we bros Till they lowered ya coffin, now watch me drop a rose I been dropping mics, since Warren G, was rocking dice Before I had a Facebook, still got them likes Please don’t follow my path, no this is not advice But If you find yourself in hell, appreciate the lights I been to heaven, on Earth, in the form of love And watched it all turn to hell, in the form of lust When forming trust, don’t ever settle, or you’ll never sleep Cuz guilt is like an upper for weeks, the weak, won’t get a wink That’s why the average, gotta get a drink, instead of think That’s why they see me post a song, but never press the link No tattoos, but give me a notepad, I’m obsessed with ink And keep a fetish, for fucking minds, like a sexy shrink Impressive scenes, the rest to be seen, inside my deadly dreams The power DEF davyne holds, the key that Desmond brings Back against the ropes, no hope, I still ain't left the ring They all respect the king, but please let me be I said hey! I let you come inside, but I’m sorry you can’t stay Oh no! Gotta go! There’s the door, please be… OnYaWay OnYaWay OnYaWay Please be on ya way

You know the type you always find at the Mac store Tryna coverup the real her, cuz her past sore Never, giving herself credit, like a bad score Showing up to a party, already looking for the back door Saying this the last war, "every night’s a battle field" Smokes for distraction, drinks until she can't feel Mad real feelings, talking, headache, no advil Heart on an anvil, cold as black steel Only had him for a minute, miss her dad still Still carries around his broken armor and his cracked shield Heard he had some rap skills, then he got that deal To take him from Pop, and make him pop, like he had pills Rarely every saw him again, except for birthdays Where’d he go her every day scenario, the worst case Every Sunday, seeing how much sin, can one church take First place, in my book, still I give her, her space Her troubled past, coming back, like a thunder crash Thought she found Love at last cuz he had her touching cash None to pack, cuz he knew he'd find another, (summers back) Running fast, life in the drain, no plumber crack Under that, weight he couldn't wait to set the record straight Too many pieces on the board, tryna checkmate Still she thought back, way back up on their second date When she let him lay her on her back, no let's wait Too late. Can't choose fate, that's a true state -ment never meant to be the reason that you lose faith Moods fake, still she say love me what a cruel play Rules break, karma coming back at a new rate Hard to contain her emotions like a soup plate Plus her love spilled under the table, at a group rate Never helped, that her young body, finally grew cake Didn't know the dad, shit she barely knew her due date Used to the abuse but its getting hard to deny the beating Her life repeating since Batman was Michael Keaton Her pain so painfully obvious swear the blind can see it She fell for me, simply 'cause I was kind and decent And I ain't lying cheating leaving every night and evening Plus I'm kinda seasoned on a mission with a rhyme and reason If she knew her father, I’d be honored with a mind to meet him But she told me... I have you... so I don’t need him
7.
SHAWN MENDES hook She would not show that she was afraid But being and feeling alone was too much to face Though everyone said that she was so strong What they didn't know is that she could barely carry on She just a child, why you tryna take advantage Of the things she don’t know that society has established Like... if ain’t love, then it ain’t right… wait! People meeting, then they naked on the same night And then you came along, and told her it’s a game But then you told her, don’t be telling them, your name She's barely developed, look at her frame No, stop looking please, she's feel dirty, and full of shame What did she do to deserve this, did she, talk back Did she not do her chores, and take a long nap Only to wake up to you... undoing her bra strap Your gritty hand over her pretty mouth, STOP THAT! She can’t move, but she's crying, can’t you spot that Too busy yelling, "shut up bitch, I know you want that” She still remembers the smell of cigarettes and Cognac And all her boyfriends ever since, can feel your contact She would not show that she was afraid But being and feeling alone was too much to face Though everyone said that she was so strong What they didn't know is that she could barely carry on Cuz of you, my lover can barely carry on Even though we ran away together and got married young She was more than ready, and I was very sprung But on the night of our honeymoon, had me scared to cum Cuz she told me she was broken, once I had her open And she was hoping you would go away, her panic growing That’s why she drinks the way she does, cuz it’s her magic potion My mad emotions, taken over, by her sad devotion Guilty like... She ain’t the victim what a drastic notion Cried so many tears, she could drown the whole Atlantic Ocean My crafts in motion, bout to take her, where she’s never been To a level of understanding… cuz yet again She showed her fear to me, the reason that I hold her dear Try to let her know, I wanna see her old, I’m so sincere She told me all she wants, is to be alone Cuz her temple is haunted, and her demons home She would not show that she was afraid, But being and feeling alone was too much to face, Though everyone said that she was so strong, What they didn't know is that she could barely carry on

Can't help the people you're missing It's been done, a casualty rerun Welcome to the family You see I went from chasing wealth To chasing mental health and wellness Been taking care of myself so well You might think that I was selfish At peace, with the universe Cause I respect all the elements Environmentally conscious Cause there is no bigger relevance Global warming heard the warning seen the evidence Money over life, that’s the corporations preference Tryna break our mother down, until she's sediments Cursed ‘cause I both think and feel, like sentiments Old Testaments, no love Just jealousy death anger and mo’ blood Like a timepiece, can we re, wind time, please? History shows, we’ll be history ‘less we find peace Hey kid I have to question What's with the violent aggression Details blurry, lost him too early Welcome to the family Hey Why won't you listen? Can't help the people you're missing It's been done, a casualty rerun Welcome to the family I try and help you with the things that can't be justified I need to warn you that there is no way to rationalize I try and help you with the things that can't be justified I need to warn you that there is no way to rationalize Father, father, father, help us Send some guidance from above These people got me, got me questioning Where is the love?
