i love you Lyrics by lil darkie
Momma doing a job that she would rather quit
But she gotta help earn, “father’s adamant”
She told me that she’d rather stay home
Cook, clean, and talk to family on the phone
She calls me distraught over her parents
While I’m riding round town in the whip running my errands
She say “grandmother’s fallen again
And she won’t listen when the doctors tell her she can’t stand
And we found your grandfather sneaking a drink the liquor bottle half empty sitting next to the sink
And under normal circumstances can he do what he think to
But he knows the doctor told him he shouldn’t drink booze
I feel like I’m losing my mind
And I just want you and your brother to be kind to each other
Cuz until recently me and my sisters didn’t have that at all
Ask him to go to the park with you and play basketball
I don’t know if I can handle many more er visits
Weight crushing my heart, it’s just physics
And I don’t wanna put you through the same when my hair turns grey”
I said “momma, just listen”
“I love you
And everything that you put me through
It’s all worth it
I’mma keep working
‘Til my skin bruised and it’s black and blue
And I’ll do it cuz I love you
And everything that you put me through
It’s all worth it
I’mma keep working
‘Til my skin bruised and it’s black and blue
And I’ll do it cuz I love you”
I tell my momma ” I’m afraid
I been sober three hundred and sixty five days
And every once in a while I get the urge to smoke
I fear one day I’m gonna cave and burn one
And I ain’t afraid of the smoking itself
In fact I’d be very happy to develop a more positive relationship with weed
I’m more afraid of falling into old habits and patterns of thought I don’t need
The kinda shit that made me stop in the first place
Coughing up black mucus
My thoughts start to race
I think about dying when I’m too high
I think about losing you when I look for too long at your face
I miss the inspiration and felling of happiness
But I don’t know if I’ll ever be truly able to balance it
This kind of lifestyle promotes the hedonism
People offer me drugs and tell me that they think I’m talented
I don’t know if I can handle the pressure
Weight crushing my mind, eyes popping out the sockets
I’m sorry if I’m rambling quite a lot”
Momma said to me “son, just stop talking”
“I love you
And everything that you put me through
It’s all worth it
I’mma keep working
‘Til my skin bruised and it’s black and blue
And I’ll do it cuz I love you
And everything that you put me through
It’s all worth it
I’mma keep working
‘Til my skin bruised and it’s black and blue
And I’ll do it cuz I love you”
