Promise by HLR Zain Lyrics
{Verse 1}
I been lookin' at the stars, connect the dots, i hope they watchin' me…
Trynna flood my mouth wit diamonds i swear ain't nobody stoppin' me…
I had bodies on my mind, give you the fee, pass me the shmoney…
Load the clips and empty out got cuhzo riding wit the drummy…
Love to bust, i love the rush when i send out all em shots…
But i'm feelin' it ain't worth, youngins' heartless, turned to bots…
Hate when homies switch up on you, every year there's more ops…
Every person you get rid of, few more added, it dont stop…
Watch em lay and pour out just like fountains…
Protective of my brothas my lifestyle ain't round them...
Mama know i'm sorry for everything i did…
This just how i raised myself i been into this since a kid…
I ain't reach your expectations know i let you down…
It was hard knowin' that i ain't had you around…
Its a blessin' knowin' that i got you right now…
And ill do any little thing i can to make you proud…
Dad, this is out to you for all of those things that you did…
Yeah, i admit you weren't around but your footsteps were followed in…
Since a youngin' i been drownin' in my mind flooded with sin…
I wanna clutch up all my urges and go trap em in a bin…
I swear im learnin' day by day as i see all of your mistakes…
I see the way that it affected you i see all of your pain…
I just pray straight through the night that you can see another day…
I know deep down that you just stuck and you don't wanna be this way…
{HOOK}
(x2)
I do this stuff for you, i'll do it till the end…
I do it for my brothers that i'll never see again…
I Promise i won't fold, i swear i'll never bend…
Keep it solid promise one day imma get my mom a benz…
{Verse 2}
Highway to the riches seems the world is gettin' hard to see…
The Same ones i provided for is now seemin' so hard to reach…
If i tell you that i love you i'm expressin' with all honesty…
If i'm bein' distant its just cause my ops are onto me…
I been on my toes, i watch out for the fakes…
They gon' say they proud but then behind you they be throwin' shade…
Same one said i wouldn't be none can't keep wit my pace…
Quote me from my remix, ain't a race but i take still take first place…
Finally got a grasp now i can't let this slip away…
Focus on the positive cause i'm now halfway through this maze…
Lately i been strugglin' trynna keep a happy face…
Know that imma make it out this, gotta plan out my escape…
I swear that imma make up for all them long days…
I'm my brothers keeper without them won't be the same…
Need a change of weather i been sick and tired of rain…
I promise imma fix all this and imma make a change…
{HOOK}
(x2)
I do this stuff for you, i'll do it till the end…
I do it for my brothers that i'll never see again…
Promise i won't fold, i swear i'll never bend…
Keep it solid promise one day imma get my mom a benz
