Protect The Family by THE FIELD (CA) Lyrics
[Chorus]
In my lane, come this way I'm still here
Came to talk sun down been thinkin' 'bout how
We making 'em proud
I hope you making it out
Follow me, with no doubts goin' 'round
Tryna figure this out
Couple days gone by
Already know why
We gotta stay close for this
[Verse 1]
Why they gotta test me
They been frontin' me since '03
Simba shit, I been fighting for my family
Tryna take us to this money tree
Water all those flowers so they blossom G
Yeah these wounds run deep
In these untapped caverns
I split the atoms taking matters in my fingers
Muddy water, through the gutter
Hit the curb and then it splatter
Forest fires, ashes scatter
Fucking arson, smoke and mirrors
Fucking cowards
Dodge the talking want no part
They can't handle the war
They can't stand in the rain
I just need the right direction
Finding guidance in the mirror
Motion blurry in my vision
All these figments never clearer
Stay in focus, I ain't fearin'
I been steerin', ship ain't sinkin'
Storm is brewing, I ain't losing
Keep on goin', never stoppin'
Till I'm flyin' or I'm fallin'
Y'all don't wanna hear me say
Y'all don't hear me when I say
The darker days is on the way
Yeah the light's so far away
[Chorus]
In my lane, come this way I'm still here
Came to talk sun down been thinkin' 'bout how
We making 'em proud
I hope you making it out
Follow me, with no doubts goin' 'round
Tryna figure this out
Couple days gone by
Already know why
We gotta stay close for this
[Verse 2]
Night life fast like we live in the summer
Fuck heart break no plans for the wintertime
Take a drive slow Kanye on the radio
Gathering my thoughts, rapping instrumentals
Losing all my mental, gripping on a pencil
Tryna pick and choose don't leave it all to me
Still red that I'm bleeding can't you see
Difference 'tween you and me
Imbalance in my brain, tryna stay sane
Losses are lessons, life ain't a game
Studying my heart out staying in my lane
Tired of the bad ones bringing me the pain
Gotta keep my family close, closer to my heart on God
Believe what you want so hard
'Member when life was dark?
Can't forget when I barely talked
Wasn't happy so I hadda get away
Hadda lead the way
(Can you help me)
Come and find me
Long talks with my loved ones behind me
Real love on this side still providing
Helping you now don't think you'll lose
Ticking time bombs loud watch what you do
Met the devil in the mirror since a baby been a sinner
Flashbacks with my angels so I know we cool
Take a step back
Put your money where your mouth at
Been crossed and stabbed in the back fast
Taking turns on my soul no controller
Making change on the side gotta do what we do
'Cause we push thru
We push thru
In my lane, come this way I'm still here
Came to talk sun down been thinkin' 'bout how
We making 'em proud
I hope you making it out
Follow me, with no doubts goin' 'round
Tryna figure this out
Couple days gone by
Already know why
We gotta stay close for this
[Verse 1]
Why they gotta test me
They been frontin' me since '03
Simba shit, I been fighting for my family
Tryna take us to this money tree
