LOVE

[Intro]
I think love is just when you realize that, nothing else matters but the time we have now, mhm
Yeah

[Verse]
Uh, so much time has passed since the last album dropped
I've already made my spot without the label shop
My music touchin' souls in ways that can't be duplicated
A child of God, I'm liberated, see my greatness
I calculate my next move like a chess board
Disconnected from reality, I pulled the damn cord
I gotta share my story to show you what really happened
The reason for my being, the reason I picked up rapping
I was 13 years old living with my mom in Florida
Didn't get to see my father but knew he supported us
So I hung out with my niggas just tryna ease the pain
Seeing my mom drink herself to a bottomless chain
My parents separated at two, I saw the outcome
When you give up on the same person you in love with, you're not them
I get a voicemail from my pops, I hear his voice shaking
It was something about it, I knew that his heart was taken
Next day, I had finals, so I'd just call him back
Not realising that I would have a heart attack
He said my brother died at 5am, he couldn't breathe
I cursed God, why'd he have to make my brother leave?
That nigga was a newborn, what he do wrong?
He was a pure soul, I'm cryin' on this damn song
I leave outta the class, my test on the damn table
Mom picking me up, this shit feels like a damn fable
I can't even focus on anything that makes me happy
I left the school destroyed, the devil had fuckin' attacked me
A couple years later, I channelled all that energy
Just to make my first mixtape, that was my legacy
No-one's perfect, and I rebelled straight for my family
I felt like everyone around me would end up abandoning me
Talks with my therapist, my father had cried with me
Looked in his eyes and knew that we would just be tight forever
So the feeling I had, I knew would slowly diminish
Every song that I wrote would help me heal and replenish
Memories of breathing tubes in a baby's body
Lack of oxygen, that shit felt like an autopsy
So when these niggas rapping talk about the clothes and hoes
I can't relate to none of y'all, I'm in another zone
I'm here to be a legend, better yet, to be a human
I wanted to be a hero just like I'm Huey Newton
Our heroes die because the good always die young
You wanna change the world, they'd make you bite your damn tongue
I never started in this tryna be like nobody
I figured out who I was thanks to the Godbody
So brother, I know imma see you again
After Gundam part three, I know this shit might be the end
Hero

[Outro: JAY-Z]
If you haven't experienced love and you don't understand it and you don't have the tools to move forward, then you're gonna have complications
