Freddie Gibbs - Never Can Say Goodbye lyrics

Ugh, yeah, yeah, ugh
I guess I never could say goodbye
This is my love song respect it

Yo, I started off as a young
Dude with' dreams of playin' football
Then I went to college where I
Learned how to cook raw
My pockets was feelin' empty
I was feelin' worried
I gotta hustle these dime out of my dormitory
I bagged up in my grandma crib
Served on the same block
Where my grandma live
Same place I used to play as a kid
Same hood where the girls around the corner
Let me get in them ribs
Same block where my uncles used
To keep up drama
Same spot where my daddy fell
In love with my mama
I fell in love with the game
Cause you can take me out the hood
But you can't take the hood out my veins
The ghetto's in my blood
You cut me I bleed this
I'mma eat, sleep, and breathe this
Believe this i'mma fight for the crib 'til
My knuckles is purple
Steel city, I would never desert you
On the record yeah

I never could, never have, and I never will
Ugh, ugh this for the block
Ugh this for the block steel city
Never could, never have, and I never will

I was a hustler man
Infatuated with' gettin' the dough
At nineteen I discovered I was
Sick with the flow but I was listenin' to
Rap in elementary school
After bumpin' Scarface
I would listen to Cube
Then I switched it over to Eric B and Rakim
Back then, i thought there wun't nobody
Harder than them
Everybody from Cool J to Kool G Rap
Used to make my head nod and my fingers snap
Hip hop took control and captivated my brain
Now I need it
I gotta have it cause it's keepin' me sane
I don't rap for the fame, or the dames
Or the change i just do it simply and plain
For the love of the game
They say music soothes the savage beast
I'm livin' proof
So I'm comfortable as ever when
I'm up in the booth
Although the business full of snakes and
People that can hurt you
Hip hop I would never desert you
I'm addicted mane, ugh

I never could, never have, and I never will
I said I never could, never have
And I never will ugh, yeah for my people
This for my people

Yo, and I would like to thank my mother
And my father for raisin' me right
You not to blame for the bad
Things I did in my life
I know that havin' two good
Parents is truly a gift
You the reason why I even exist
Why I can rap like this
To my grannies and the rest of my fam
Just believe in me and I'mma do
The best that I can
Willie Watts, Uncle Wayne, Mike Lang
And my nigga Quade
You might be gone but your
Memory is here to stay b Lang
I know it hurt to lose your only brother
But while I'm here you got
A brother from another mother
That's on my mama homie
That goes for all of my dogs
Man just give me a call
When you got drama homie
Cause this cold world can break ya heart
When it does you can lean
On me like Joe Clark life is hard and when
It's gettin' controversial
Understand that I will never desert you
I got love for you

Ugh
I never could, never have, and I never will
Ugh, I can't for all my people mane ugh
I never could, never have, and I never will

This for the block, for hip hop
For my people, ugh, yeah never ever
I guess I never could say goodbye
