Dark Nights

[Verse 1] Raised in the struggle The drama I succumbed to Made me a G Some problems I gotta run through Niggas can't walk on the blocks That I done hung through It's hard to have faith when nobody will trust you Most Niggas dust you Duck and scream fuck you Now you realize the streets just don't love you Remember seeing Rob a lot, and now he dead We got the same face, my fate is Misled I was so caught up in ways to get bread I let my brother's last days get wasted Now I'm wondering, if we could trade places But the strength from you Got me bound to make it I'm surrounded by family and friends Knockin' Monique Pushin' a rock, Countin' my cheese This ain't for me To your memory, I light up a flame You're the reason my success came (I miss You) [Hook] Dark Nights, Dirt road drinkin' Hennessy (drinkin' Hennessy) What's The reason you niggas gon' remember me? (What's the reason) I am who I am Cause my niggas live in me What's the reason you niggas gon' remember me? [Hook pt. 2] Dark nights, dirt road drinkin' Hennessy What's the reason You niggas gon' remember me? I am who I am cause my niggas live in Me That's the reason you niggas gon' remember me [Verse 2] Me and you was a team, you was a G Sentenced by me, to live on these streets I let my words bring life to the beat Feel the story of a righteous MC Could it bring brightness for me? Daylight, tryina' dodge three strikes Cause post partum depression done took your life I was caught up in my own pain Couldn't see yours Now I'm placed in a spot where I gotta grieve more Everything happens for a reason the tell me So I think about it all while I'm leaf inhaling It coulda been me, you sacrificed it all So I could run around the town Screamin' SHADY My lifestyle crazy, my lifestyle made me see I never lost you at all, and lately To your memory I light up a flame You're the reason my success came (I miss you) [Hook 1 and 2] Moral of the story, be thankful for life Hard times build character, you faced with the right Faced with the wrongs, tryina get faith through a song My struggles enable me to move on You can dwell in your own pity Or rise through the ashes And gain the focus to be alive with a passion Cause a gang of my loved ones been blasted I pray for the day that I be in a casket I never knew one day, I'd be Ca$his Rappin' 'bout things I did through ski-maskin' Hard times give me the strength To do what I feel Keepin' yall alive through songs is keepin' it real I'm pushin' a rock, countin' my cheese Realizin' this ain't the life for me And to your memory, I light up a flame You're the reason my success came I miss you [Hook 1 and 2X]
