I Cry - Freeway

When I was diaper switchin'

First time my G.I.

Joe’s was missin'

First ass whippin'

The first time I seen a grown man die

And I ain’t know the reason why my grandpa Carter left me

A few years past the grandma Carter left me

Wish that I could bring 'em back, swap it out, use the barter system

Would’ve traded all my arcade games

My Nintendo and Colecovision

Just to see 'em livin'

When I finally realized that they died upon the wrong religion

I hope Allah forgive 'em

Hope Allah forgive us all for sinnin'

But repenters get the recognition

It’s just a gift from God

I’m just a slave but God can’t deny

There’s just a few things to make a grown man cry

And in return a few things to make a grown man wise

I’m not just spittin' I’m live full, I’m readin' the scriptures

Y’all niggas dick ride, I know things

«I cry»

When my man Neff ran in the store to take down

And in return got his soul took, his body shook

I still keep him in my prayers right now

But every chapter is decreed by God, it’s a closed book

I cried when I see my son come out the womb

Will he grow to be strong, only time can tell

I cried when I couldn’t see my daughter come out womb

I was locked in the cold room, a jail cell

When a few more friends fell

Twiz gone, Griz gone, Shateek, Chubs as well

When I see my cousin Emily’s face

At my cousin Ethan funeral

I couldn’t keep composure, I kept thinkin' over and over

Eventually, one day we gon' be in his place

And the only thing you take is your deeds to your grave

I hope my good deeds outweigh my bad ones

The day that this raft come we stuck and doomed, it’s a rat race

Yup!
