WORDS CRY ALBUM℗©
VERSE ONE
IT'S BEEN A COUPLE YEARS NOW
CRYIN’ AND THINKIN' ‘BOUT HOW
YOU FELL INTO THAT POISON
WHEN YOU OPENED THAT DOOR
AND LET YOUR BOYS IN
HAVIN' YOURSELF A GOOD TIME
‘TILL THE SMOKE TOOK OVER YOUR MIND
LET YOUR GUARD DOWN
KEPT YOU HUNTIN’ FOR MORE HEAT
ALL OVER THIS TOWN
WAVIN' GOODBYE SAID I LOVE YOU
TWICE TODAY BUT WHY
SHOULD TODAY BE ANY DIFFERENT
THAN THE SAME OLD BLUEPRINT
BLUEPRINT, BLUEPRINT
HIGH FIVIN' POINTING AND SMILING
HUGGIN' LIKE THERE'S NO TOMORROW
SMILES LIKE WE HAD A WHILE
WHO KNEW THE HORIZON
WOULD BRING SUCH SORROW
PREHOOK
NEVER FELT LIKE I WAS ENOUGH
TRIED TO REACH SO HIGH
BUT WEARING CUFFS
DREAMED TO SEE THE FINISH LINE
BUT I DIED TRYIN' THIS TIME
HOOK
MAMA YOU DID YOUR BEST
MOMS AIN'T SUPPOSED TO
LAY THEIR BOYS TO REST
IT WAS NOT MY PLAN
CARELESS DECISIONS I MADE AND THEN
MADE ONE TOO MANY
CAN'T GET BACK
IT WAS NOT MY PLAN
IT WAS MY FATE
’CUZ THE CHANCES I TOOK
BROUGHT ME TO THESE GATES
I HOPE FOR HEAVEN’S SAKE
HE TAKES YOUR PAIN BEFORE YOU WAKE
LOVE YOU AND GOODBYE
WE WILL MEET ONE DAY AND UNTIL THEN
KNOW THAT I WAS TAKEN
I WAS TAKEN
NOT FORSAKEN NO
VERSE TWO
SORRY MY BROTHER THIS WAS NOT MY PLAN
ALWAYS WANTED TO BE LIKE YOU A GOOD MAN
I WAS TAKEN DOWN BY THE BEST
SHE WASN'T WEARIN’ A RED DRESS
IT'S JUDGEMENT DAY
AND MY KINGDOM COME
TIME TO MEET MY MAKER
LET HIM KNOW WHAT I'VE BECOME
NEXT TIME I'LL GET IT RIGHT
NOT USED TO LOSIN’ FIGHTS
NO GLOVES OR HEAVY LIFTIN' UP HERE
NO HIGHS BUT AIN'T NO LOW BLOWS EITHER
PLEASE BELIEVE ME MY BRO
I HAD NO PLANS TO GO
‘CUZ AS MY SPIRIT ROSE
CAUGHT A GLIMPSE AND I SUPPOSE
I HAD TEMPTED FATE
ONE TOO MANY TIMES
BUT MY BROTHER
PLEASE BELIEVE ME
FATE TOOK THE BAIT THIS TIME
HOOK
MAMA YOU DID YOUR BEST
MOMS AIN'T SUPPOSED TO
LAY THEIR BOYS TO REST
IT WAS NOT MY PLAN
CARELESS DECISIONS I MADE AND THEN
MADE ONE TOO MANY
CAN'T GET BACK
IT WAS NOT MY PLAN
IT WAS MY FATE
'CUZ THE CHANCES I TOOK
BROUGHT ME TO THESE GATES
I HOPE FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE
HE TAKES YOUR PAIN BEFORE YOU WAKE
LOVE YOU AND GOODBYE
WE WILL MEET ONE DAY AND UNTIL THEN
KNOW THAT I WAS TAKEN
I WAS TAKEN
NOT FORSAKEN NO
VERSE 3
MAMA, WE CAME INTO A WORLD
WE COULDN'T UNDERSTAND
TRIED TO BLEND INTO A PAINTING
MADE BY HIS HAND
‘TIL THE BRUSH TOOK A DOWNWARD STROKE
ALL IN BLACK AND IT ALL WENT UP IN SMOKE
IT WAS A PRETTY PICTURE AT ONE TIME
UNTIL WE DREW THAT BLACK LINE
SOME MARKS WE CAN'T ERASE
LIKE TEARS FALLIN' IN BLACK
DOWN YOUR PRETTY FACE
LIFT THE VEIL AND SMILE AGAIN
LIKE YOU USED TO
FOR I'M AT PEACE NOW
NOT WHAT I'M USED TO
HOOK
MAMA YOU DID YOUR BEST
MOMS AIN'T SUPPOSED TO
LAY THEIR BOYS TO REST
IT WAS NOT MY PLAN
CARELESS DECISIONS I MADE AND THEN
MADE ONE TOO MANY
CAN'T GET BACK
IT WAS NOT MY PLAN
IT WAS MY FATE
'CUZ THE CHANCES I TOOK
BROUGHT ME TO THESE GATES
I HOPE FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE
