Beauty & The Beast II

Yeah
I know you probably hate the fact I'm lonely at the top
But you was there the day I said I'm never gonna stop
When you was givin' evidence, I'm sittin' in the dock
While you're getting interrogated by the prosecutor and the judge
And I remember when we never had a pot to piss in
Always on the road, no hugging, no kissing
No Valentine's cards or flowers in the kitchen
By the time I had a car, we'd already started drifting
And I wonder what was running through your head when I was switching
You was dealing with a boy that was just trying to build a business
I was dealing with some things that I still haven't fixed
But it turns out trauma is the teacher of wisdom
We were just kids, who we kidding
12 years into this trip and I still feel like I'm trippin'
Never thought we'd have to say goodbye in the beginning
But it's life and I just thank God we're still living

She sits and cries about the times we were low
And when her family ask about me, she says we're cool
Tell her not to cry no more
Tell her not to cry no more
Tell her not to cry no more

I thank God we're still living, still chilling
No more near misses
Wet tissues and tears were the story of them detrimental years
You stood with me through the dark days, nightmares
You were really ride or die, you was right there
You was with me on the backstreets with a firearm in the car and you really did not care
You wasn't with me for the money, you was in it for the love
It's a shame that I wanted a life that you didn't really want
Am I right, am I wrong as I'm writing this song it's like
I-I-I don't know a love story as poetic
When Beauty met The Beast I thought it had a happy ending with a wedding
I don't know, you might regret it

She sits and cries about the times we were low
And when her family ask about me, she says we're cool
Tell her not do cry no more
Tell her not to cry no more
Tell her not to cry no more

Through the valley of the shadow of death (yeah)
The dark sets in and I feel heavily stressed (heavily stressed)
As the moon sheds light on my devilish day
Look to the sky, say my heavenly prayers
Only God can help get the damage repaired
