DC The Don - Longevity lyrics

Yea on some dice rose shit
I lost relationships with ones I'm close with
Always thought of you as the one to grow with
Never thought that I would be
Lonely stressin' this rose shit

But I know you fade away
And I know I been away
But you don't need to replace
I'll always be here, no need to be near girl

Acting defensive and shit
Like I ain't help you through the
Times you hated life and shit
Like my shoulder wasn't the rest to
Help you fight this shit
Imma be here to help you out
And share the light and shit
Fuck it I'm in it for longevity
Everybody belittled you then except for me
It's alright I expected she'd
Be upset with me but I don't mind I'm so
Persistent in when I live
With me I never let it get to me
Twenty seconds in and I'm
Still feeling drowsy
Thirty seconds in and it's already cloudy
Free lil Bobby, free lil Shmurda
Free that nigga Rowdy
Miss my moms, I miss my dukes
I miss my cousin Ally
Yea, think the unexpected
In terms of failure they all
Applauded I still feel neglected
You was the one that made me
Strong and made me feel accepted
But when you smokin' it's so much
I think I leave a message
I mean what's the probability
That you can go out and find
Somebody as real as me
I don't think that shit is easy at all
Not a lot of niggas can help
You get the things and evolve
Not a lot of niggas can tell you
That they there for the cause
Not a lot of niggas gon be there
When you weak and you fall
Not a lot of niggas gon be there
Stay around and evolve when you
Down and you feeling that the ones
Gon be there at all

Yea, but now your heart deceitful
You ain't learn from your first mistakes
And then you made a sequel
You telling me that you off and
You said I'm dead and evil
But I done heard a lot worse
Come out from much better people
Feel like D Wade I carry the
Heat whenever the keys play
Never gave a fuck about what he say
90 on the freeway
These niggas tryna bury me these days
As momma said God gave 'em too much leeway
Way too much free space
She gotta apply the pressure for cheese sake
And keep your pockets fat I won't
Delude I make it three ways
And lately I been into fuck my
Life and let me free fade
Cuz I promise it feel like an LSD maze
Shit I'm not really suicidal, but
I don't mind death
I feel like death is less assured
To let my mind rest
But then my fam in reality makes me snap out
But if somebody touch my family i spazz out
Cause I know one day that Lil
Daij gone have to grow up
When my brothers need me imma have to show up
And when my momma call me imma
Pick the phone up and tell
Her don't worry 'bout it imma
Pick us back up yea
That's how it goes when you was
Forced to grow up younger
While I was shedding tears the
Kids was out enjoying summer
I was walking to the money
Turned myself into a runner
I was only 9 years old but
I was plottin' on the Hummer, shit
Not for me
For my momma cuz I know she like that
Got these demons on my fucking back and
It's so hard to fight it
There's a spark of genius right inside you
Just dig deep and find it
Had to draw the future for the
Past but then I never-mind it
I grew up fast with a purpose
Momma told me fear no man it
Ain't no soft in the circus
Especially when you a nigga can't
Rely on those surgeons
Just remember don't sign your life
Away in devilish cursive

And when you come back and hear
The shit that I'm saying
I hope that it sparks something
Inside you to keep replaying
I hope that you see the picture I painted
Vivid displayin' and know that I'm 17 but
I'm 30 what I'm portrayin'
My conversation is old cuz I grew
Up fast and I'm blazin'
I'm just a rose and I rose
Out the ghetto truly amazing
How you could turn something bad
Into good with little explaining
And everybody around you is telling
You that you changing purple hearted
