Before Things Get Good

It don't matter what I say and it don't matter what I do
 My feelings already gone but somehow I'm still stuck to you
 I rather not see you cry tryna make this work all for you
 And all you want is my heart nothing else I could offer you
 Wish I could change the way I feel if it was that simple I would
 I don't expect for you to get me I'm always misunderstood
 It's not that you ain't good enough you prolly just way to good
 It's not my fault that I'm this way I'm product of the hood
 I was neglected as a child I don't know how to love
 Come from a broken home didn't know my auntie from my mom
 No matter how hard it get I'mma cope without drugs
 And I'm not blaming nobody I'm just telling your where I'm from
 I'm not a savage but I know that's what you might think because
 When we was taking a break you caught me out with a dub
 I prolly fucked up your trust and made it hard for you to love me
 Before things get good you know it's gotta get ugly
 Shorty you can't lie I'm the best that you ever had
 Shorty you my balance I swear you my better half
 You innocent with some sass, when I'm in it I never last
 Your pussy give me a high but it's better than crack
 I'm on a path that ain't made for many
 Girl I know that you a dime that's been mistaken for a penny
 If it's not with you, still gon' have a life they gon' envy
 Can't go to war with my girl till I defeat what's within in
 You say your feelings ion ever consider and ion get that
 If I gave you all of my time how would I get racks
 You know I'm introverted I don't like to party and get blacked
 Be patient with me I promise one day I'll have our whips match
 I know I don't make sense I'mma living contradiction
 I said I love you to the moon and back if it's walking distance
 I tell you I need space then I'm mad that you acting distance
 Ion know where we would be if your love wasn't so consistent
 Ion wanna fight I hate that back and forth
 I swear that being loyal is what's attracting hoes
 And what's fucking with my head is who you been with before
 'Cause we was close just like bruddas but not anymore
 Still don't get why he mad 'cause he was fucking on my friend
 You can't say that you in love 'cause with love comes discipline
 I ain't here to judge, I'm just here to say my piece
 I was straight up with you can you say that you were with me
 I was neglected as a child I don't know how to love
 Come from a broken home didn't know my auntie from my mom
 No matter how hard it get I'mma cope without drugs
 And I'm not blaming nobody I'm just telling your where I'm from
 I'm not a savage but I know that's what you might think because
 When we was taking a break you caught me out with a dub
 I prolly fucked up your trust and made it hard for you to love me
 Before things get good you know it's gotta get ugly
 Focused on your flaws and your imperfections
 I broke your heart and it broke mine so I learned my lesson
 Still I'm searching for perfection that's my preference
 You in the presence of rap's future
 When I fuck you can't get no looser
 Proven I do it smoother, they do what's cool to be cooler
 I'mma dawg, I'mma dawg for my girl I'm neutered
 I'mma ball I'mma ball I'm talking league status
 All these racks is coming in from streams and addicts
 Shorty came in lingerie sent that pussy home in a casket
 Ask me who can compete is like A.I. talking 'bout practice
 There's levels to this shit and you ain't even in my bracket
 Ion care where I'm goin' just as long as it ain't backwards
 I could do this on my own rather have a rider to stack with
 I made it rain in your life only right I give you my jacket
 We done fell out times before this ain't new to some it be tragic
 Gotta grow from the pain and not make it a habit
 It don't matter what I say and it don't matter what I do
 My feelings already gone but somehow I'm still stuck to you
 I rather not see you cry tryna make this work all for you
 And all you want is my heart nothing else I could offer you
 Wish I could change the way I feel if it was that simple I would
 I don't expect for you to get me I'm always misunderstood
 It's not that you ain't good enough you prolly just way to good
 It's not my fault that I'm this way I'm product of the hood
