DJ Noodles - I Cry lyrics

[Intro] [Freeway talking] Yeah. I'mma talk y'all back to first album. When I had a song "I cry"...that goes, when you hear the song, you should cry. You know you wrong when you cry. Well this time around...I'mma break it down to y'all a few times in my life I had to cry. It's just grown man sh**. Real rap. Let's go [Verse One] When I was diaper switchin' First time my G.I. Joe's was missin' First a** 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 n***as dick ride, I know things [Hook] "I cry" [Verse Two] 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! [Hook]
